i can research/write 20-25 Q's if the topic is to be weather, baseball or real space (not sci fi space)

i think if we have an event near baseball's opening day in late march, it should be baseball questions (edit: opening day march 26)

btw, who is that actress or celeb in scrmcasey's discord pic? seems familiar but i can't think of the name.

We can do a baseball theme the week before, which would put us at March 21st if we stay on Saturdays. I'll write it down in my handy dandy notebook (planner) so I don't forget.

lol at the actress/celeb part.

hit me about 2 weeks prior if you want me to generate the 25 Q's for you. i like this trivia/calendar theme! Maybe weather Q's for spring or summer astronomical season starts as well.

oh, that was you? i figured most people use celeb or other pics instead of self shots. I'm going to have to use george clooney since i'm getting a few gray hairs like him and my face is made for radio so he can up my handsome rating by several points.

Is the winning them the only thing the questions will be based on? Because I don't know a thing about Dr. Who or Lord of the Rings, couldn't even take a stab at answering them.

Yes, the winning theme will be based around whatever majority vote is. I know nothing about Dr. Who and remember very little about Lord of the Rings, so it could be an interesting research project if those won.

can i change my vote so you will have to suffer researching lord of the rings?

No take backs! I don't mind research though....unless it's an underpaid HIT on mturk.

Thanks for this, it reminded me that I didn't get a chance to put a poll up yesterday. One of my children got hurt at school (she's fine), and everything else slipped my mind. The theme Saturday will be General Knowledge and I'll put up the suggestions for the next poll.

 

[rsmath]

clearly this week's theme should have been world maladies, but general knowledge will be fun!

 

[scrmcasey]

I put a note in the Discord, but just in case anyone didn't see it, trivia is on hold until 3/14. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

 

[rsmath]

ok, explains why it is so dead!

see you after your coronavirus quarantine. ?

might want to link the trivia channel to the sidebar in the general forum (has music, pets, etc as side channels) so it is easier to find in the future if we miss announcements or link posts.
