Not to mention a huge tool advantage for Google empolyees who play.
Ok. Ill defend this, as i feel im the Google Employee mentioned.
1 - I do NOT work for Google. I used to sell Google Adwords, which is not the same. I know nothing about SEO. I do know how google works though. Does this give me an advantage? No. using google chrome does.
2 - This forum is diverse. We have members from all over the world. Why should there be 10 american questions? Rather than 5 Us and 5 European questions? You think I know anything about NBA, NASCAR, Olympics, MLB (Pre-2002) anything like that? All the british ones ive ever seen are modern, and easily Googleable.
3 - I love hard questions. Bring it on. But rather than say target things YOU know about. Why not keep it as it is? diverse. I have Never once read the quiz and felt I was at an advantage. Just because I CHOOSE to know about NFL, does not mean you can not learn about Football over here. How is that different?
4 - I am the top trivia dog. But not as I get easy questions. Or unfairly treated. Its because I am more intelligent than the rest of you, and I can read faster. If you notice, in the past I won each month, I still win now, and every ChatBoxTrivia I have played I have won. This makes me good. Not biased.
5 - Grow up.
6 - How hard is it really to Google answers. Everyone does it. And you clearly do it too, as I know how long it takes you to answer one of these quizzes generally. Just because you are unable to copy and paste the question in to Google, or type the key facts, and click "search" does not make the rest of us better. It means you need a better system.
7 - IMO the questions are unfairly based towards US players. Ive looked back at what I answered. And in 1 weeks have answered precisely TWO questions about the UK. and 6 about europe.. thats out of 70 questions.
The fact of the matter is if i play each day i am beating your *** at your own country, your own sports, and your own damn invention (Google).
Sore losing sucks. If i lose its because someone did better, so they get congratulated! Or mocked if I have missed some days.
Much love!
I don't mind losing at all and I am not sore.
Maybe a handicap system is in order for previous winners say winners must skip 1 day a week in following months contest.

I beg to differ about the intelligence factor. Your ability to Google an answer does not prove to me (nor anyone else I'd assume) that you are more intelligent than the rest of us. Having said that, I certainly think you're intelligent, but you clearly use Google the majority of the time. Besides, I don't think you can judge anyone's intelligence based on the types of questions we get in this contest.
Everyone does not do it. I have never once used Google on any of these questions and I never will. What's the fun of playing a trivia game if you are going to use Google to get the answers?
A silly statement and a bit overboard when you're using Google to answer these questions and not your own knowledge.
I dont use Google all of the time. I didnt use it today. Or hardly at all this month. And everyone is on the same field here. Taking too long still makes your score worse. This is always won by knowing more answers. As my scores prove.
I did write NDN never uses google.
And not silly. I know on average 90% of the questions. And i only ever google stupid american ones. And most of the time i never find an answer
I have. And none of that was a lie
