    Maybe it's because no one knows who was the only starter on the 1988 olympics Bulgarian womens' handball team to be on the rag in the bronze medal match

        Nobody knows that shit anymore.

        The first question is now as difficult as the 175 pt question.

        "What are the dimensions of a hockey goal?"

        Who the penetrate knows?

                        At the end of the day its still a chance at something for nothing - sometimes you know the answer, sometimes its an educated guess...sometimes its a complete shot in the dark, but no matter how hard the questions it hasnt cost you anything so does it really matter if you lose ?

                              I used to be faster at googling who the 6th place finisher in the 1932 Czechoslovakian national ping pong championship was

                              Believe it or not the 2 badges I have now are genuine...by genuine I mean that I took a complete guess on the 3rd question and lucked out and got it right

                                  Trick question.

                                  The Bulgarian Women's handball team did not compete in the '88 Olympics.

                                  Gold was won by S Korea.


                                  For further reference, please remember that Maria Ivanova is notorious for being on the rag for the Bulgarians... but she usually comes off the bench and is seldom a starter.


                                  Gotta know these things, cent, if you're desirous of winning the Big Trivia Bucks.


                                  Read it and weep, fella:

                                      You can't Google most of it anymore either.

                                      How do you Google, "Which player broke Mark McGuire's college home run record?"

                                      And all for a freeplay? Not worth it.

                                        I miss the trivia where it was SBR points and the questions weren't what type of grass is Les Mile's favorite to snack on the 2nd Saturday in November following a day of 90% humidity.

                                          Was the 3rd question always 175 points? I think I remember it being more.

                                                  I get the 60 point question right fairly regularly but dont even try the third one any more. Googling isn't tough for the first two questions.

                                                    It was originally for real points and the payouts were a little higher. 225 for getting them all correct.

                                                      Well you don't get a badge for quitting after 2 rounds which I do 90% of the time.

                                                      First you have to look at it this way...Trivia has been going on for some time, you will just end up getting repeats and what not. Second if trivia was so easy then everybody would win...which would lead to everyone getting more points....which would force SBR to raise the prices in the SBR store.

                                                      SBR could make a daily trivia for Pro members...a true and false question worth 1000 points...wouldn't everyone be happy?

                                                      But of course it would cost like 100,000 points for a $50 gift card.

                                                          Here was my 1st question today



                                                          Can't imagine the 175 pointer.

                                                            Or who the fukk Jason Allison is, and why the hell he missed some arbitrary time during a specific season. 10 pointer, BTW.
