    See, I've never seen it called "SBR SPORTS Trivia" even after all these years. When I receive it it's called "SBR Trivia" which I've always assumed can encompass anything and it has. If you happen to get a different version please let me know

    Win Betpoints in weekly sports trivia.Right from the site.......
    You've linked me to the Betpoints forum... nothing else
    '
    But even then, in the very first thread in the very subforum you linked me to is a thread called "SBR Pro Benefit" and within that thread it states one of the perks is "Exclusive Contests and Trivia". Not sports trivia. TRIVIA.

    I've received several random questions about posters, infractions, etc here during the history of us running trivia. Not often but they do pop up. Best of luck you get the next one right

    It does say WEEKLY SPORTS TRIVIA.


    I not saying that he gets a do over, but seriously questions about posters should not be included at all. Only sports since that is what it says

    I don't see problem asking questions like that SBR in general prefers to reward the most loyal members - the ones who contribute most to the site. Obviously those who contribute/post more are more likely to know the answers to such questions compared to others, so what's the problem with giving such folks an inherent advantage in trivia which is one of the rewards of the site?

    Hell you have a better chance of answering SBR posters info then some of the other sports questions I have seen on question 2. You are always going to get fuked up questions some times. My favorites are the ones from back in 1931 asking which coach didn't double wipe after taking a shit at halftime in week 12?

    I also don't generally care who got banned for what either.

    There are also a lot of sports questions I get asked in trivia that involve sports/facts that I don't care about at all either. I'm sure many of the questions people get asked on Jeopardy the issue/answer is not something that is relevant to them as well. That's why this is all called "trivia".

    the real issue here, is that someone has tampered with the answers. it was common knowledge that in the 3rd question, for the big prize, irregardless of the question,the correct answer was "C". not anymore, now they're mixed up.that's why you see a lot less
    badges.
    please re-instate "C" as the correct answer to the 3rd question.
