So, I would like to know the following: A) Just post quizzes to the website, they can be taken whenever, and scores are more for personal satisfaction more than anything B) Live Trivia following to the Lausanne 2020 model, with a general ranking of scores. C) You have a different idea that you want me to try. I know I already kind of polled everyone on this, but I want to make sure we chose the right format so people actual play along. A Would be a better option The reason is as same as @heywoodu said all people live at a particular moment is not possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,417 Posted January 26, 2020 Author #312 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Alright, that’s 3 hours or my life I’ll never get back. After a lot more work than you would think is necessary (and 2 system crashes), I present my masterpiece : https://games24.totallympics.com/?p=1677 Any/all feedback on format, questions, answers, etc. would/will be appreciated. This is my first attempt at a quiz on this matter, so hopefully it’s done in a manner people like. I’m aiming for us to publish at least one trivia post a week. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

I thought I would only get one. One suggestion from my side will be will be a short info on the answers. For example- For the last question you can mention the four names in the results so people unaware could learn from it. All considered good effort to balance summer and winter games.

heywoodu 13,499 Posted January 26, 2020 #319 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The first one isn't exactly a 'mishap' as much as a tragedy, the last one would not be a mishap neither since who cares Semantics, I know, but since the question suggests all answers are mishaps I thought I'd mention it If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
