Actually, I'm all for teaching the kids - every MI kid has to have Hunters Safety to be allowed to hunt. Education is the key - teach the kids how to carry a gun, how to respect the gun and the others in the woods. It's not the same as inner-city kids grabbing handguns and taking them to school to shoot the Math teacher that flunked them or the kids in Social Studies who tease them constantly. Not the same at all. One is respectful, one is anything but

Your answer buck season for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an A Reindeer Calf and 1126sP

Yayzorz! Now to get this one. :3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Bummer. xD After digging through all the articles about "Cyber Monday," deer was the first thing I came across and buck never even crossed my mind. Oh well.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, I taught Spanish last year in a somewhat rural school, and the first day of hunting season my classes were really empty, which was a nightmare for the secretaries, so it is pretty smart to just give everyone the day off

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

If you want to get technical, bucks can be taken earlier in the season if they've a small enough rack to be tagged as a doe. So really, the season should be more based off of the type of weapon and/or how many points a buck are. Overall, I found this trivia to be poorly worded, a worrisome trend that usually gets me to quit attempting trivias for weeks at a time.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Also, I love how morbidly ironic the last prize was, hahah.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I thought that it was asking for the Holiday name, since there is really only one name for that and when I read the question it seemed like that was what it was asking for... then LilithFaire pointed out that it could be asking for either, and Debi clarified... but it was all too late for me, as I had already answered Buck Day

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Your right on the resonaing it out BGG. And, Nov 15 in Mi ..yuppers. What I find odd is ... let the kids have a day off to go out and be taught to shoot ...then pray they dont bring them back to the schools. Little odd to me .. but, im just, me. LOL

I thought buck is only American English, so it's not linguisticly specific XD

That's what I found on my dictionary:

The adult male of some animals, such as the deer, antelope, or rabbit.

I did thought of adding Buck Season before I saw that. But then it made me think buck can also be male antelope or rabbit (actually here we generally reffers male rabbit to a buck), and you said be specific. Plus, it got far less results on google too. So I choosed deer, lol.

Anyway, it's already done and done, I guess I'll just buy that prize in trade :p

Now onto next trivia.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

uggggggg.... I looked it up and the PA news paper (dont remember which one now) said DEER season. bummer. =P

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

when I answered the trivia I went to the PA game commission web site...it states both antlered and antlerless deer season started November 26th...buck season would only make it half right then...the official start of gun season although I answered deer season...gun deer season would have been the most correct but that is 3 words not 2.

I second-guessed myself into a huge headache for nothing. whew Let me see if I can explain my own reasoning... Deer Season is too general - and wrong... bow hunters were bagging deer for weeks. Hunting Season? WAY general - hunting what? Been hunting all sorts of critters for a long time.. small game, bear, fowl, blah blah. I was scared it should be Rifle Season - 'cuz this is when the guns come out. But I was right the first time - it's called Buck Season - because this is when the majority of hunters are allowed to take their guns out into the woods and bag a buck (not a doe, at least not without a permit) - AFTER they've bred for the year. Much sooner than this, and they don't have enough babies next spring, because hunters killed too many bucks too soon. So that's why it's called Buck Season. First Monday after Thanksgiving in PA, apparently. But it's always on November 15th in Michigan. Rural schools here have Opening Day off too... In fact, I have never attended school on Nov 15th - except the two Nov 15th's when my family lived in CA.

Buck? Ahm.. yeah... okay.. odd... but.. yeah..~~shrugs~~ owell.~~not pleased, but no one cares~~

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

FOUL :@ I pulled deer season right off of the PA state gaming commission website!! -mumbles, grumbles, complains, and casts dirty looks in all general directions-

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I agree that it was a toughie, but Debi did say it needed to be SPECIFIC, so I went with the most specific answer I could find, buck season!

You know what, I understand why ppl are upset. I got Buck season and AFTER entering it, I was SURE the answer was going to be DEER and was "stewing" about it all day. Had it ended up being Deer I would have been ticked. So, I see why ppl are upset. It clearly had 2 answers and After finding Buck, Deer came up quite a bit more .. I just lucked out in being hasty ...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I was going to put Buck Season, but that answer was only true up until a couple years ago. The Pennsylvania Game Commission changed the rules and now Nov. 26th is the first day of both antlered (buck) and anterless (doe) season. You just need 2 separate licenses. Quote from the PGC: "DEER (Antlered and Antlerless) Statewide: Nov. 26-Dec. 8. One antlered deer per hunting license year. An antlerless deer with each required antlerless license."

This sucks I was just as close with the last trivia.I searched many results online for over an hour and never once heard of it referred to as Buck Season.I only found it referred to as Rifle Season and Deer Season.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

How could buck be less specific than deer? But, as I said, this isn't the first day of deer season in general.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

My answer was 'deer season'. XDD meh.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I can't say that I'm a fan of the last trivia.. it was poorly presented... but it's over and onto the next one... This is also why I hate non-related trivia.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I find it interesting that one article that I read said that up until 2006 it was called "buck season" but it is now called "deer season" because up until then you were only allowed buck on this day and doe were on another day. Now it has changed. (Yes I answered deer season)

sigh i think deer season shouldve worked nothing i looked at said buck....ive never even heard anyone say buck season

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Specific or not, the searches were not coming up with "buck season"... and it seems most people had that problem.

This one is easy though, love the lizard.

Lmao, wow guys. It's just a trivia. No need to get your panties up in a twist about it. I got it wrong too, big whoop.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Argh, where did you guys find it?

For those who don't think there's a difference between a deer and a buck--google.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm sorry, but your answer of deer season for the trivia was incorrect. I wondered if it wasn't incorrect...but actually buck season is incorrect as well since buck season for archery began on Sept 29...technically the specific answer should have been Deer buck and doe gun season...or gun deer season since doe started as well for gun. Deer season was the most correct for two word answer because it was not only buck season that started...but buck and doe for gun.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

this one did have more than one answer

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It did say be specific. It isn't the first day of the season for all types of deer, nor with all weapons. It's Buck Season. Alternatively, it's Antlered Deer Season, but that's too many words.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Eehh? All the sites I went to said Deer Season, and thats what I put... Guess thats what I get for hating Pennsylvania. xD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Awww. Not fair at all! I live in PA and our school said we had off for deer season, not buck season. I thought when you said be specific, you meant the kind of animal, not the gender. Ehhhhh.

Well, actually I got that in my research too, but it got far less results then deer season on google, and I thought 'buck' is the less specific term then 'deer' :/
Guess I'm just... unlucky ._.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I Hate the triva.This is total BULL the answer was clearly stated on google so I should of gotten it RIGHt.

STOP putting trivas that have more then one answer. Its total BULL and so unfair to us

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Looks like another trivia where multiple solutions would have been a neat feature to have coded into the game. I've failed by putting "deer season" as well.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I guessed deer season because almost every site said it was "deer season". Only one said "buck season" and i almost put that.. but no.. i went with what the majority said. I really wanted that little calf, too. This trivia question wasn't too hard.. the answer was just too easy to miss because of what would come up in the search.
