Title: Looking for Suggestions... Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on April 13, 2004, 07:31:41 pm Okay, I'm getting ready to make a new quiz and I'm looking for suggestions on topics. Of course I will have questions about the military, aviation, and cars in there somewhere (as these are topics that interest me), but what other topics would poeple like to see? This quiz will be for a 1-year Premium Membership on GameRanger and as always, nobody who has previously won a quiz will be eligible to take part in the new one.
Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: th.Sentinel on April 13, 2004, 07:37:46 pm hmm, can't you just give 50$ a month to some charity? Instead of wasting it on kids that spam the chat the whole time? ;) ;D
And if you do want a topic try European Sports, the Ethics of fonttypes, plots of movies... Then I can finally compete my premium is running out in august... ;D Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

Instead of wasting it on kids that spam the chat the whole time? ;) ;D I give over $1,000 a year to the Republican Party, around $1,000 a year to the Air Force Association, between $15,000 and $25,000 to my church (depending on how much I make that year--gotta give 10 percent you know!), and probably a few thousand to other charities (including the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation...my wife has been a Type 1 Diabetic since she was 5). So I think I have the charities covered. And if you do want a topic try European Sports, the Ethics of fonttypes, plots of movies... Then I can finally compete my premium is running out in august... ;D Okay, so I could add questions about Soccer, Movies, and I know you didn't say Font Types? Font Types? Really? Like, what was the official Font Type of Apple Computer? hehe...I know the answer to that one :) Okay, anybody else have some ideals? I may make this one longer than 10 questions if I get a bunch of good ideals. Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: Toxic::Joka on April 13, 2004, 09:24:15 pm It's acctually called Typeface ;)
Seeing how this is a gaming community.. . maybe something about the history of games? Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: crypt on April 13, 2004, 09:55:31 pm What about a bonus question that will give anyone a $5 Gift Certificate the iTunes Music Store that anyone can get, even if you've won previous quizzes? ;)
Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on April 13, 2004, 10:21:24 pm What about a bonus question that will give anyone a $5 Gift Certificate the iTunes Music Store that anyone can get, even if you've won previous quizzes? ;) Nice suggestion....I like it. I will word the rules for the bonus question as follows: Bonus Quesion--Get this question right and you will get a $5 Gift Certificate to the iTunes Music Store. Anybody can answer the bonus question, even if you have previously won a quiz.* *-The only exception to this is Crypt, who will NEVER be allowed to participate in another quiz because he joined a clan with Typhy and voodoo. :) Yeah, I like that a lot! ;) Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: crypt on April 13, 2004, 10:36:25 pm No way I hope ur kidding, btw, you should make that the hardest ? so that it takes a long time to get it.

I may make this one longer than 10 questions if I get a bunch of good ideals. The word you are trying to use is not "ideals" (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=ideal). It is "ideas" (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=idea). Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: BTs_GhostSniper on April 13, 2004, 11:07:34 pm Okay, anybody else have some ideals?

It is "ideas" (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=idea).I know Mr. Lothario.....it is an inside joke, and I just do it out of habit. I probably have the best grammer in this forum. When I was growing up, my father would correct my grammer all the time, and one of the things I would say was "ideals" when I should have said "ideas." In order to straighten me out, he would ask me what my "idears" were. I always thought that was very funny, so although I don't say it that way anymore, I do still write it that way because it is funny to me. Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

PS... mine was only for 20 bucks, not 50, so I think I should be eligible to win one more contest. :) Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

Typhy/Rapid>Snipes>GS! theres probably more but those are the ones I remember Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

Typhy/Rapid>Snipes>GS! theres probably more but those are the ones I remember How am I a spammer? I believe spam is something that absolutely NOBODY wants to read and is TOTALLY annoying to just about EVERYBODY. On the contrary, my threads generally spark a lot of debate, are read by just about everybody, and although they may by annoying to some, many others find useful information. Besides that, I think my quizes, where I am actually giving away money and gifts, have been pretty popular. What's the matter o:n:e, you jealous I didn't buy you Premium? Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: spike on April 14, 2004, 02:59:27 am he's just angry cause you're more popular ;)

That pretty much sums up your posting career the only difference between you and a spammer is that you pay people to tolerate you. Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: crypt on April 15, 2004, 01:08:57 am I don't have any problem with GS' posts, more spam is dug up by the people bitching at him for it.

Post by: komisar on April 15, 2004, 03:55:21 am Hazard no offense you are a freak you pick fights on a forum, and start the spam issue by turning into spam, go do something with yourself instead of arguing and make something of yourself. Look, its moving text! Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: BTs_Mysterio on April 15, 2004, 04:42:12 am Hazard no offense you are a freak you pick fights on a forum, and start the spam issue by turning into spam, go do something with yourself instead of arguing and make something of yourself. What in the fuck is this? Hazard isn't picking fights. Can you actually say that you know him; because if you could youy would know hes just kidding around. If you want to take things litterally, take this: Shut the fuck up you arrogant/ignorant jackass Now Show so respect Komisar, and when you say no offense mean it. On topic: $5 sounds tempting, but what about the world wide players, iTunes is US only :o Keep up the good work on the fun quizzes GS. Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

Is it really U.S. only? Wow, I really didn't know that (and as we all know, there are very few things I don't know about....lol). Hmmm, I will have to come up with a special prize for the rest of the world....any suggestions? Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions...

Let him annoy you guys over there for a while? Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: onwig on April 15, 2004, 04:35:13 pm nope, not to the UK GS, he would'nt last 2 seconds.

Yeah, there are only like 2 people per square mile in Alaska...so really can't be that many people there he has pissed off bad enough to want to kick his ass. But Typhy....oh Typhy.....one of these days I'm going to make it over to Douglas Hwy in Juneau and knock on your door....

Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: crypt on April 17, 2004, 04:08:09 pm Well, in a way it did, but that's only for those appreciating GS' money and quizzes, of course I can't win another one, but I sure hope he'll let me win the bonus question (my idea btw) most of that stuff is my ideas, even the idea that previous winners can't win (wtf did i think of that)
Title: Re:Looking for Suggestions... Post by: a_Dingo on April 19, 2004, 01:20:37 pm Now here is a suggestion - have a quiz that precludes anything american in it, and that requires some understanding of the issues around the question to answer.
Would put a different slant on things. On the iTunes front - I am not sure if a gift certificate can work from OS. I know that to set an account up you need a USA billing address - not sure for Song delivery - if you need to test I would be happy to help! |
