[First 4cr Trivia Was| May 7th @ 8pm EST]
So our first trivia as come and pass, we had a nice number of people playing. This first trivia was all NES themed questions. We asked 20 questions and the first one to answer got a point.
The final scores were:
Hokku 5
JamesMontagna 4
nescentral 4
gman21 3
sevex 2
Kreven 1
colr100 1
I’ll be doing one for next Saturday, I’ll try to better organize the scoring method and base it on every answer I receive within the same second in my time stamp. So every good answer within that second will get a point.
Leave comments of what you thought about the trivia and also suggestion for the next theme.











This is a good start I guess, I’ll help write scripts/alias as necessary to make the event handling easier and more orgamised. Good job.. and no more pasting answers with the questions!

btnheazy03 - 05.07.05 9:35 pm
Geez, talk about sad. It took me forever to get the Konami code question and I didn’t even realize you posted the answer until I read this.
Anyway, that was very fun. Another thing that helps 4CR get that community feeling. Plus, it was a great way to kill time on this slow news day.
