    Three seconds is way too quick, it takes at least a second or two to even read the question. Ten seconds sounds good to me.

    Don't fix something that ain't broke .... Just an opinion..

    i think the timing is sharp, just enough to think about the question or guess. It's not enough time to research on google or something and answer ... I'd leave it be.

    too much time allowed, either shorten it or I will start to google as the others are doing. Fair for one, fair for all!

    You get free plays not points so if you're gonna shorten the time limit switch it back to betpoint prizes or up the free play prize per round.

    Agreed. If you developed any level of test taking skills in primary ed you should be able to occasionally win at trivia.

    lol dumbasses crying foul cuz they can't answer 3 straight questions correctly.

    That JPUSSY is such a whiny little oyster. Kid failed 2nd grade 6 times and then brags how he was the best athlete in Jr. High. Meanwhile the little oyster was 24 years old in 8th grade.

    Trivia has become my favorite aspect of the SBR experience. If the system is being gamed by bots or whatever there's got to be a better way to suss that out than hurting someone like me and so many others who are playing the game straight up. There's no way I could do 3 seconds or 5 seconds, I'll just be honest. Some questions are so obscure you need like 10 seconds just to try to figure out what sport the question is about. Sore losers advocating shorter times, y'all should be ashamed of yourselves

    Foul play? How's that possible. Siri or something? No way they could be googling it and finding an answer within 20 seconds,bi dont think. I haven't had a 175 in so long I don't even know what I would do with the points.
