Of course, because one of these ever working out would be impossible Did you not get the Winter questions I made for you? Half the damn quiz is winter sports! How on Earth can anyone know that? By watching ceremony, the OBS announcer who says what play it is, the Wikipedia article, general knowledge. Again, I want to make the quiz doable and competitive, but also educational and interesting. In fairness, that is a question pertaining to sports. I also never technically restricted the quiz to sport only questions. I feel like 1 or 2 “off-beat” questions a quiz isn’t a big. I love reading your feedback as always, and your anger about the literature question gives me energy for the rest of the day “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

I watched live all ceremonies since Lillehammer 1994 (yeah I was too young but still) and I can guarantee you our commentators never mentioned a single word about Shakespeare or I don´t know who else who wrote something some million years ago during the golden age of piracy or so you´ll invent for the next quiz 15 minutes ago, Olympian1010 said: Did you not get the Winter questions I made for you?

I am not angry, just infinitely curious why you are so obsessed with adding literature and art questions in a olympics based sport quiz in a olympic based sport forum Fair (just wait until I start the hard questions ) Careful what you ask for... I know you weren’t upset, but I wasn’t sure about the best to write what I wanted to say. I’m infinitely glad you all chose to participate in this little quizzes and generally enjoy them. Obviously I can’t satisfy everyone, every week, but I try to make them as informative, interesting, challenging, and fun as possible. Thanks for playing this week, you may get a shoutout for a high score in the near future. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted February 13, 2020 Author #367 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I know this is really short notice, but would somebody be willing to write event reviews of the 2020 IBU World Championships for us? “Sport has the power to change the world.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted February 13, 2020 Author #368 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Great, who decided to hold the Pan American Combined Climbing Championships and the Rugby Sevens World Tour on the same weekend ?. How am I supposed to cover both? I think I’ll chose to cover the IFSC Pan Ams, but that’s annoying, It’s not like I’m overflowing with opportunities to attend events in-person as media. “Sport has the power to change the world.
