Trivia Quiz

Post by JRBUS123 »

I thought I create a thread based on trivia questions

I was thinking we do this: I (or the quiz master) ask a question to you all (either multiple or a short answer) and the first person to get it right asks the next quiz question and so on
If the first person who gets it right but does not want to ask a quiz question, they can leave it open for anyone to ask the next question, and this process then continues on

Also, if the correct answer hasn’t been made after a week, the quizmaster should then reveal the answer.

The quiz questions can be pretty much on anything (the harder the better though :wink: )

Example

JRBUS123 says:
Q: What is the capital city of Australia?
A. Canberra
B. Melbourne
C. Sydney
D. Brisbane


Player 1:
B

Player 2:
A (Canberra)

Now player 2 can ask the next quiz question, unless they leave the option open for other members

I’ll start us off

I always thought it was Mercedes-Benz, but that’s not an option?

Ford I guess?

Sorry, MO8562, but that’s incorrect. Hewlett-Packard and Packard Bell are and have always been two unrelated companies.
