BE Barbie quiz
 
I'm not sure if many of you know but The Barbie has it's very own quiz, started by the lovely Wendy many years ago:
http://www.funtrivia.com/private/main.cfm?tid=70965

It's fallen into disuse recently but used to be a lot of fun. I was quite good at it too.

Let's get it going again so that I can kick all your asses (apart from NB).

I haven't done one of those for ages, 10/10 but slow. First Born's watching something about obese American kids and I was distracted. :lol:

I miss the quiz, thanks for resurrecting it. I had a go but only got 8. Still beat your sorry ass!

Renth looks like he might be one to beat.

Yep.
I used to do reasonably well on another forum but stopped doing them cos I was always penalised on time.
It wasn't that I was Googling answers or anything but I am a slow reader so always took a few more seconds than other people.
They should be renamed speed quizzes.

ha! Well I enjoyed that - but in my haste clicked a wrong answer. More read, less speed!

The 'score' (not how many points you get) is worked out like this - you get a 100 for each question you answer correctly but the time you took in seconds is deducted.

So if you scored 7 right in 30 seconds, you'd have a score of 670.

Each player is then ranked according to this score. If a player scores the same as another player, the one who played first will be listed first. At the end of the day, this order is what determines the points you get. The more players who play each day, the greater the number of points available.

Amazulu is doing a crap job of encouraging people to play every day.. :D

So - a new tournament starts today - go get playing (it's US times, I think, so you have until sometime tomorrow afternoon)
