    So when is the 50 point Trivia Trophies coming?

    Since we have 125 point Trivia Trophies, why not make one for the 50 point winners and even the 10 point winners?

    Someone might have their signature filled up with these.



    Don't you think the trophies are getting watered down now?

    maybe, but mayb not many people win the 125 point question(i think a high % don't even go for it, but i like to). these trophies make me feel like ive accomplished something, so i don't mind.

    If they start start giving out trophies for like "first post of the day" for 8 points ill be pretty mad though lol

    they are becoming a joke

    i like the concept, but lets keep it for real accomplishments...and unfortunately me being in a hand that was dealt a royal flush isnt an accomplishment, but i guess its better than a 125pt trivia

    Now if only one 125 pointer was available each Trivia day, then I could see a trophy for it.

    I hear ya. I never tried for the 125 pointer. Always go for 50 now, and stop there.

    I think the idea of the 125 point trophy is to lure a lot of people in trying for it. This causing less winning points from Trivia.

    They expire in 30 days so the fun badges are come n go. A poker tourney win lasts a year.

    they have trophies for those? I've won all three a bunch of times, but lately I've been sticking with 50.

    neither is that great, but trivia involves something you had to do at least. being there for when a royal flush is dealt is nothing, although of course the points are nice.

    yea i was more-less saying royal flush ahead of sbr trivia only because sbr wants to show 5,000 points given away.

    125 pt win isnt something worthy of a badge imo

    The trophies officially began being added for trivia with last weeks sessions.

    125pts gets the most bragging rights, so it's the only badge that will circulate. =)

    Rudy: Yeah, I agree regarding the # of points.

    Glad that they're expiring, because otherwise it'd be impossible. The sigs would get too cluttered.

    Ok, I guess that makes it better.

    What about contest winners Bill? Those last a year too? Any of them Lifetime trophies or do all expire in a year or less?

    Nice. Didn't know there were badges for hitting all 3 questions in trivia. There's some added incentive for me to go all the way now!
