Kudos to the powers that be for coming up with another enjoyable game that makes F.T an even more attractive place to "hang".

You know that you have to register separately on the forums? Only I just checked the membership list and there's no one with your username. Use the same username, give your email address, and you'll get an email which you need to respond to ... once your details have been verified, then you should be able to move seamlessly from one to the other.

There were a couple I was sure I'd get zero on yesterday. Amazingly though, I actually knew the answers to a couple of Hockey questions. And it seems the law of averages might thwart anyone aiming for zero. On "Everybody Loves Raymond" I literally didn't bother to read any of the questions, since they would be meaningless to me. Still managed to hit enough correct answers by accident to get a score in the 300s. I was flabbergasted.

Thank you,, Flopsy. Yes, I knew that, but the discussion forum wasn't even bringing up the registration form for me. It's done now.

Cat, I tend to go immediately for the top answer seen as I might get a lucky 100 score if it turns out correct. Works 25% of the time, haha!

I think this is a great challenge. I've been matched with some great quiz authors and lost by not much, and won a couple. I play all of categories I can, and if I lose someone wins.

I would recommend everyone to play all of the daily duel games. Surprisingly sometimes even when I think I know nothing about a subject I've been matched with someone who knows even less it seems, and when I think I'm on a subject that I know a lot about, I'm thrashed by some genius. It's all so delightfully unpredictable!

Strange that I am not able to play these games anymore. I played a few and had the reload problem and now it will not even load the games and I have clicked on several. I did enjoy this game.... I asked for help and was told it was my server..... so guess I am one of the ones not able to play.

Dee30, trying playing a few topic mashes in unlisted topics first. If that doesn't help, try logging out, wait a few minutes, log back in, play a mash or two, then try the Duels.

Sometimes that works for me. Other times, I have to wait until late at night, when the FT day is almost over, and my wonky server has less traffic. Maybe some of these suggestions will work for you. Good luck.

Try clearing your cache. It's always a good thing to try when you hit a problem and the same thing happens again and again.

I won with a 213 today. I knew nothing about the subject so all my points were lucky guesses. My opponent had a 203.

After a few good days the Duel has come back to bite me today. Scored 972, 973 and 982 in three topics and lost all three. My average is nowhere near that score either so it's awfully frustrating to take sometimes!

Then I score a disappointing 732 in the Mixed General category and expect the loss but I win in that one!

Crazy game :D

Gives me adrenaline and paranoia in equal measure :P

My aim is to win more than I lose each day and I've scraped through that today, so even with those high losing scores I can't complain too much.

I needed 11 wins today to get to level six which, based on the past few woeful days, was beyond me. I put my head down and started at the bottom of the list, and then I just played quiz after quiz after quiz, not checking the scores, not looking to see if a match had been found yet, not noticing if I won, lost, or drew. But then I couldn't avoid seeing the bold black type "flopsymopsy has joined the ranks of the Mice!" Hurrah! And to add to my joy, I then got a twelfth win. Yes! The rabbit is back in town. :)

Until tomorrow, lol. I love this game.

Oh Postie, I was a wabbit (or two) before I joined FT so I guess I'm stuck with that now... but I've been a llama for seven or eight years so that's become a habit and I like winning things so I stick with them while they put up with me... but now I'm working my way through the animal kingdoms with the goal of becoming a dinosaur which lots of people accuse me of being already. It's no wonder I'm confused!

namrewsna, I started out on FT as a gold member but there was just SO much available that I felt compelled to do that I was getting NOTHING else done so I let the gold membership lapse. I'm afraid I have no willpower when it comes to trivia.

namrewsna, if we can't convert you on the Team message board, we'll just have to take our efforts to a more public forum! WotF could use a few more Gold Members.
