▓░Strange Games░▓ ╚Your thoughts/opinions: Yay? or Nay?»

[Shaniqua]

Hi,                                                                                                                                                                         
Yesterday (or last night) there was the first ever ▓░Strange Games░▓ trivia for 10k questions on the main chat which I hosted (funded by BMG). 
First of all thank you BMG, for the funding and allowing me release some strangness unto you all in trivia form.
                                                                                                                                                                                  
I was curious how the games were perceived by you, YES You! I noticed some liked a lot some did not. I know some didnt like cause was a few math based, and others didnt like cause was confusing, and the fisrt or second question was a little bumpy... my apologies for that btw... will all be ironed out for next time. Also Some didnt like i think cause was taking  too long to post question (as i was in my mind trying to word them perfect as not to be misunderstood (ironic right!? so strange!) lol                        
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
But yeah.... I always voiced my thoughts on how to eliminate trivia selection bias, and implementation of standard and non-standard ways to give users a more equal chance of winning, which isnt connected (as much) to internet speed or googleing capability/reflexes or host-bias... For example the last question "name the animal i am thinking of(hint starts with a "k")...                                                                                                                                                                                             
That question is what I call quasi provably fair... Its not provable in the true way that seeds and rolls get verified... but what I did was pm BMG, the sponsor and trusted individual my answer which was "koala" a second prior posting the question. This ensures some accountability to some degree, meaning  (if i asked the what am i eating now) question.... i wont be able to just pick at my leisure who i wanted to win. (yes you can argue many things against this, such as i could have told answer to sm1 else as well what have you...) but nevertheless, i think justfeelsgood knowing the power is not all in one persons hand...                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                                                               
The simple maths were there too but in a weird way if you recall.... a square half filled in x 0.5 = ?                                                                                                                                   
the question is not straighforward, people get a little confused, but that the idea, to have the answer right in front of you but having to think, and not a single way google can help! (well maybe ..... in some questions, like find the unicode character number we did....

Anyways, just simple thoughts would be great of if you liked it and if you want to see more of it... and if you disliked it  and why....

I will be writting and researching questions ahead of time for next time so wont have to wait so long in between questions!
please contact me via pm in forum if you may like me to host ▓░Strange Games░▓ for your next sponsored games. Im eager to work on the strangeness! 
and fill the poll question out!

No particular time, when I win i usually post a game or two, but i dont win often, so its just by chance.                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                
However im always willing to host a few strange games if anyone want to sponsor them. =P

[Shaniqua]

Ill post some sample questions that  I just thought of, while trying to take part in trivia with a slow connection                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
How many "(X)"s are there:  (X)X(X)x(X)(x)(X)XX                                                                                                                                                                           

The answer is: 4
