What isn't being grasped is that the first day of thing.. is called something different depending on which county or district you live in in Pennsylvania.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

phew yeah the trivia is definatly strangly phrased... I'm not from the US and checked the net wide and far and the only thing I could find would be 3 words if I want to be precise, not 2... well - I'll see tomorrow I assume

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

"We're looking for /what/ it is the first day /of/ " - really? so i guess my answer was wrong. but are you sure? because the way I see the trivia, it's ambiguous, and perhaps slightly more likely the other way round...

"In the US, in the state of Pennsylvania, what somewhat unusual day is given off school every year as a holiday today" - i think "the first day of..." is just a hint to be aware that it's also considered the first day of something, and called something else.

argh in any case.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

oh this one is easy as well

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

We're looking for /what/ it is the first day /of/ :3 But problem for me is, I don't know /how/ specific, 'be specific' is.

It said exactly what the trivia asked for..

Crack the safe wasn't the answer because the safe doesn't change each day, the combination changes. If you click on the game you'll see that it says 'The combination on the safe changes every day, and each day you have a chance to figure it out!' The format also said the answer was only one word.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

are we lookinig for the name of the day or two words that follow "the first day of..." ? this trivia is badly phrased O_o

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

did you read the trivia carefully?
The format said one word and one word only so the answer was obviously combination. That's what changes each day while you answered the name of the game.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Okay, I totally found this one, but I have /no idea/ how to shorten it to two words. xDDD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm sorry, but your answer of safe for the trivia was incorrect.

ARGH. stupidstupid me.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Welcome, my friend, to the Safe Game! The combination on the safe changes every day, and each day you have a chance to figure it out!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Your answer combination for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Thunder Orb and 123sP

yesss

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I got it because I remember reading something about it yesterday

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This trivia sucks major ass. I live in PA and we don't get off

what's more. It's raining

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

=.=
i answered something first.
then found the real answer out later. haha. x3 so no reindeer for isa. neh.

and i was being stupid again last time and answered 'safe'.
-giggle- i shouldn't attempt to answer these things right after i wake up.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I know what the holiday is for, I just don't know how specific we need to be.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Your answer combination for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Thunder Orb and 123sP

I found this one too, it took a little bit of searching but I found it.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Y'know, it's nice living in PA. Pointless nothings pay off, apparently.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

wow. this is getting really old. I miss the advent one because teh entry was calendAr (even though on the site it's spelled calendEr) and now i miss teh safe one because it was combination instead of safe. i hate being right but not right, it really sucks. I wish there was some way around it. like, ya know, have a human check teh answers or something. i know that would take way too long, but still, just makes me mad, ya know?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Hmmmm! I have found several names for the same thing by googling it. How specific does it need to be? I know that the school children call it something different than what is on most websites.
Its not good having a question that has several answers depending on where you look/live and suchlike.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Found it, I live in the UK so I had no idea until I found out about it. Though I have heard of it but I'm terrible with days and dates and stuff especially if they aren't in my country x_X. The prize is so cute! snuggles it

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Eww. This trivia is freaking hard! XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Actually it's not really biased for Americans. It's confusing for Pennsylvanians! I have lived in Pa for 32 years in a few counties here and each school district calls it something different. =( I just went through my son's school notices and checked out the website of the districts I grew up in and they are all different.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

If this one is biased for Americans, then the Guy Fawkes Day trivia was biased for the English. :/

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

wow got the last one and pretty sure I got this new one right also ^__^

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

hey I didn't get my prize for the last trivia and i had the answer right....

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

*new = never

as if that needed clarification. XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Because I was born evil and new outgrew it - but they REALLY validate my point XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I thought this was easy as well, but after I have answered...not sure it was right. I now see that it can the answer can be at least 2 possibilities. I am in WV, we have the similar "school holidays", just different dates.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh those stupid damn owls, why, oh why, would you mention them?! XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Biased? That's like saying.... a question about President Bush is biased, because he's American. The question has to be based in SOME group, SOMEWHERE. Happens to be PA here. They also have this in Michigan, on a different day. Am I saying it's biased because I'm from Michigan, and therefore the dates are messed up? Google is your friend. If the question is about something George W. Bush said at a conference last week, you Google it. If it's about the original killer in the first Friday The 13th movie, Google it. If it's about some little-known almost extinct species of tiny owlets, you Google it. If it's about some obscure not-quite-holiday tradition in rural Pennsylvania, you Google it.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Ahahah this one was easy for me. |D -lives in Pennsylvania-

But for those of you saying it's biased for people who live in the U.S, most people who don't live in that particular state wouldn't know the answer to this without looking it up. It isn't really any different than any other Trivia they might ask about a "holiday".

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Afghjk. I thought the answer to the last one was 'safe,' not 'combination.' Agh.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

oooI love this trivia..Its easy for me cuz I'm from Padancing in my computer chair

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It's something anyone can google, how is it biased?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I totally don't agree that this is biased. EVERYONE has access to a search engine, and as someone pointed out earlier, they live in Pennsylvania and didn't know the answer without looking. So basically, everyone has an equal chance!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This trivia is somewhat biased It's easier for Americans ( unlike me ) to know.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This is one of those somewhat open-ended questions where you really wish Debi was looking at the answers wielding her red pen XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Rofl, I suggest that Debi puts on that Thunder Orb suit for protection
Oh well, I'll just throw in a guess. If I don't guess now, I'll keep searching for it till it's over, and risk my brain exploding. I'll do my best to be zen about it, haha.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh crap. I think I already answered it wrong.. ; o ; I found the answer, and then answered it, and then I looked again and I found ANOTHER answer that could be it.. and it was probably the RIGHT one, too.. ; o ; I want that minion SO BADLY too. DX -flails arm-

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Efi - controversy when it's OVER?! It's already causing rioting in the streets LOL

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm sorry, but your answer of safe for the trivia was incorrect.

Oh that stinks! Hmmm... must get this one.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I hope I found the right answer. I hope. XDD Like, i'm sure it's right, i'm just not sure about my wording...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Finding the answer to this Trivia is doing my head in..
T_T Hm.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

whispers be as specific as you possibly can be!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Hrm...how specific do you want this? I found the answer, and there's one general answer, and a very specific one. Is this asking for the very specific one?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have spent the last half hour looking around on the internet, and I still don't have the slightest clue on how to word it. I know what it's talking about, but there are just too many possible ways to put it. I -must- have that minion for my gallery, sigh. I'm thinking this trivia will cause a lot of controversy when it's over.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

-dies- I put "safe" too.. x-x -mumbles- Gotta be all literal about it.. xP
-goes to see next trivia-

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm sorry, but your answer of safecrack for the trivia was incorrect.

I made it one word.O well goes to look at new one.
