It's a minion, so like always, if I fail the Trivia, I gotsta pony up the dough

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Darn it, I too went for safe, rather than combination

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

eurgh. I put in 'safe'. XDD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Pfft.

As for me, I've actually lived in the darned state of Pennsylvania for the past 20 years (which should have given me an advantage) but I have lived with this particular day being called something in all our school newsletters and newspaper announcements and now find that it's more commonly called something else on the internet. I have, therefore, failed this trivia. weep

Techniqually, you haven't failed this trivia yet, not until the answer is given out. So don't worry, there is still a chance that your answer is the right one, hehe. Honestly I'm not so sure if my answer is correct neither. Too much information on internet :p

I'm giving up. That deer totally freaks me out, anyway. It's voldy-creepy. Niyah O.O

Aww I got it wrong then? Well, if I have to buy the cute little critter, I guess I'll have to...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Shame on you, scandal! I'm in Michigan, and I know it XP

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I love when people complain about google-able trivias being biased XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It isn't actually a real holiday, technically; it is asking the first day of... what specifically... (two words). I finally made search give me a couple of the other answers mentioned, but they're obviously incorrect; this is specific.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

haha now i'm second guessing myself after living in pa for 27 years. thwaps

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Meh. I think this trivia is equal-acess, as long as you've got the internet.

(Which you obviously do, or you wouldn't be reading this XD)

Penn. people may get a slight boost.. but no more than someone who's a Cryptography major getting a boost on a code-based trivia...

And it's hard to write a non-subeta based trivia that doesn't involve one group or another.

Good point, Lilith... I put the holiday name... and I can totally see how that can be confusing

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The format says specific, this day is only for one very specific... whatever it is... XD There are other days that cover others; this is just for the one extremely specific thing.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I think I might know what it is, but I kinda have two answers, and you said be specific. And that it's 'unusual', but I don't find it so unusual... D; -so confused-

Who knows, maybe I'm even wrong. Though I've been researching for the past 20mins...

It doesn't matter if you're in AU or not.. Google works for you Aussies too XD But yes - wording will tweak a zillion people out. Think it through.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

these type of questions are unfair to people in australia and NOT the usa =(

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It would be the most commonly used "official" term for it. This happens to be a specific state related Trivia; we've had French, Mexican, Irish, English, Scottish, etc. Trivias in the past. But a US based site will tend to use predominantly US based Trivias.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I found 2 different holidays, none of them seems to match. Google had failed me! Darn it.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, there are a bunch of different names for today.. but only one I found that specifically mentions Pennsylvania

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Ohh, I just checked the orb out. It's pretty awesome, it's wearable AND a weapon
Thanks for the awesome prize, Debi

thunder orb^^

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

OMG SEXY PRIZE

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have two possible answers; one is more specific, but one is more common...nooooo....

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Is anyone wearing the Thunder Orb so I can see what it looks like? I feel too sleepy to attempt HA design or operate heavy machinery - good thing that back hoe is in the shop.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

there are a few 'possible' answers to this one, but one specifically that is correct. XD ?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

A-ha! Found it! giggles Great one Debi!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Now that I've read the page, I see where it specifically said combination. It still sucks that I got it wrong.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have found at least 2 answers for this... so apparently I'm not searching the right words...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Not everything is about the US. ;/

; border: 1px solid ; font-family: georgia; font-size: 10;">Hmmmm... It's generally only put one way; all six sites I hit searching said the same thing. The first Monday after Thanksgiving is really only one specific thing.

I did a search and found at least 5 ways to call that :/
I'm entering the most popular term though. Hope it's the right answer X3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Uh oh.. this is one where I know the answer and there are numerous ways to put it.

I'm just hoping what I put was specific enough. :/

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I put safe as well, doh!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I can come up with at least 3 things that could be right. x_x I guess one of the three seems most appropriate or obvious. But, ah, I don't wanna mess up.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The schools, the local papers, the news - we've only called it one way since I've lived in PA for the past 20 years. I would hate to lose this if other PA locations call it something else.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Alright, put it. Hope I phrased it right XD.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I found the answer, but it seems like there's a few ways I could word it and be 'specific'. ;_;

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

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

=C

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

No, it won't be re-used; close to 1,000 were won.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The safe doesn't change, the combination, which is the numbers, does. The page even says that the combination changes.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Deb how many got the trivia..lol I want that orb, wonders if it'll be in another trivia

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Some school districts already had a snow day, so not all might have off, but the majority do.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

ARG I was going to put combination but... put safe instead :'(

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Hmmmm... It's generally only put one way; all six sites I hit searching said the same thing. The first Monday after Thanksgiving is really only one specific thing.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Yeah, but I've found at least one Penn. school district that apparently -does- have school today.

Public school.

Unless I'm just reading their calender really, really wrong or something.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

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

Hurray!! I soooo wanted that prize =D

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

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

I disagree with this....... >

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by
