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

Daww xD rubs hand

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I think it's the reason they didn't get the question right, not the fact they didn't get it right.

And I just guessed this new one, too. xD;

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I just guessed this one - had no idea where to search and I'm too tired ... just a chance from 1/26 to get it right but it's okay

"Someone throws a pie at you!"

o-o How ironic.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

You know what? Everyone should just STOP POUTING that they didn't get it right, and move on. So you didn't get the cherry lollipop (theoretically), there'll always be more.

I don't care that I missed a trivia. I don't care that I didn't get the prize. I've missed trivias in the past and I know I'll do it again, I don't care about that.

I was angry about the fact that this trivia lacked clarification that could lead to multiple possible answers. Some of agree with my view and some of you don't, that's your opinion and yours alone.

If a trivia is just a string of colors, I feel that it needs more clarification. Not all of us will make the same leap to "list of items" that whomever created the trivia did, and for them they came across other possible answers that fit the criteria of the trivia perfectly fine. Is one answer "more correct" then the other? Yes. I freely admit that Dream gem fit in with Subeta's general trivia style better. However I also feel that my answer could also be seen as correct given the string of words that was given as the question.

I don't play the trivia because I expect to win every one and get free items, I honestly don't. I do them because they are a (usually) fun way to explore the site and get something of a reward in the process.

This one is a hard one... O.o

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Ahaha....I was completely off. Oh well. Grats to the winners. :3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, like I just said, I think the reason people are upset is that they were basically told there WASN'T any work involved in the last trivia. But I do agree that dream is the only answer (now that I think about it) that fits.

And yes, some people are sucking up; some people are being overly-argumentative or defensive. But most people are trying to be rational about the whole thing. :

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Current trivia stumps me. But at least I gots pie. >:3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

You know! Some of you people just need to quit playing trivia. It isn't a free gift, it is supposed to have some work involved and some are much harder than others, thus the reason some prizes are more valuable than others. Those who think that people who defend Debi are "suck-ups" and other such charming names, are going to have a tough time in the real world. I have spent ages trying to find this one and will probably go head-desk when it's over, but I will realize that it's a game and go on to the next one. Spending time grousing about the trivias is just a waste of time and eventually will probably lead to it's demise. So, if you don't like the way the game is played, then don't play it! Instant gratification DOES NOT start here.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I didn't go back and read everything from last night, but I agree with Lynelle on why the dream gem is the only answer that fits perfectly.

However, I don't see how anyone could say it was "mature" to move on from something that you feel legitimately cheated out of. :/ That's just being overly-passive. And yes, since the trivia question said it was super easy, the missing color in the sequence was the only thing I thought of, since it was the first thing that sprung to mind. "Super easy" WILL mean different things to different people, so even though the answer might have been dream, others would have thought of different things that seemed more obvious to them. Maybe that's why so many people are upset.

Long post, sorry

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

First off, there has NEVER been a new Trivia up within seven hours, unless Keith himself changed it. The only shorter than usual one recently was up for 18-19 hours, and had well over the usual 1500 answers (almost 1700, actually). Second, there were NOT two (or more) answers to this question; anyone else checking it would have seen it exactly the same way. The fact that a few people are somewhat stubborn and simply refuse to accept that fact is not something which is within my power to control. If purple were the answer, then violet would have also had to have been accepted, as it's the actual color that's in the color spectrum... from which indigo would also have been absent. Dream was the only possible correct Subeta related answer. And I am extremely highly offended that people who simply refuse to accept that they are incorrect now suggest that a job that was personally assigned to me by Keith, who completely trusts me with it, should now be taken away from me, because they happened to get a question wrong, and flat out refuse to listen to the explanation, and accept why their answers were incorrect. I should have a job taken from me because they can't accept that they could possibly be wrong? I don't think so, I really don't. And, has it ever occurred to anyone that, because of these sorts of situations and this attitude, no one else on Staff WANTS this job? It's true, even Primal stopped doing them when she was an AA. I don't even make up fifty per cent of the questions myself (such as this one); other users do. The bottom line is that there was NOT more than one possible answer to that one. And, basically, it's me or nothing! XD (Or Keith's fun time coding Trivias XD). I'm sorry to those who truly believe that they were right, but it just simply isn't the case this time. However, if I ever do mess one up (like that unfortunate misspelling incident... and the Louis L'Amour fiasco XD...) I freely admit it.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I put purple . I have no idea about this one yet, guess i'll go and have a look round.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

...I put purple. xDD =D
Wow. This new one is hard. o_O

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

There is someone cheating. Again.

I looked after I submitted my answer. I don't know if they got it right, because I guessed, but they have one up there.

I should make an account just to flame cheaters.

That would be fun. XP

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I put purple same as most of the people who posted XD

Though i don't get how can you cheat O.o

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Whine, whine, whine, complain, complain, complain...

I didn't get the trivia at all, I just said purple, the answer was under my nose and now I feel dumb.

I love how some people complain no matter what happens, you messed up, it's no one's fault but your own, YOU DEAL WITH IT. Stop blaming everyone else for your inability to find a correct answer.

I personally cannot every find these sequence answers but I try and fail 99% of the time and simply buy the prize later on.

It is a game people, stop being bullies.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Wow, this has to be one of the hardest trivias ever. I cannot seem to find the answer.

I've looked everywhere!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

where is it!
this trivia is impossible.
has ANYONE for certain found it?
haha, I'm gonna end up guessing

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I've gotten the last few trivias without much of a problem, but I must confess... this current 'next letter' puzzle has me stumped. Oh well, can't win 'em all :/

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I did not think about the gypsy gems...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Grr, this one is too hard. I'm going to guess. XD Perhaps I'll get it right. 1/26 chance isn't bad.

Then I'm going to see how many people are cheating. Again. DX

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

okk this one is driving me crazy...well more then I usually am anyway! But I am not giving up, not just yet.
I don't normally do this kinda posting but dang, I've had enough ....
And ya know, if I can't find it, or put in a wrong answer, then guess what...it's my fault, not anyone else's !
And yes, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, that's fine, just don't keep trying to shove it down everyone's throat ! You want to post a complaint, fine, do so...but don't keep posting over and over again about it. We all get your point, you're unhappy about it. So be it ! And those that agree with you will post to you about it and those that don't, well, I for one could give a rats ass really. Just like ya all are probably saying about my post now..lol I mean if things like this are the most upsetting things ever to happen in someone's life, no matter what age you are, then consider yourself very blessed !! Dang !
And I honestly do not know how Debilee puts up with all this! I could never do it ! And I honestly don't think any of you that are attacking her could either!
okkk so now ya all can hate me too! But at least I'm not wasting away moaning and groaning over something so trivial ...excuse the pun :-)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I too, went with Purple, thinking about primary colors and such. Silly me, I forgot they're all Subeta-related now, except for special occasions.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm really tired , 7 hours looking for the answer....this trivia is impossible, I even got an headache looking and looking again everywhere....the prize will be worth millions I give up and this is my very first time

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Since when is "sucking up" defined as asking others to accept the fact that they were wrong and stop ruining future trivia for the rest of us? There was nothing wrong with the way the trivia question was posed, otherwise there wouldn't have been as many people who did indeed find the correct answer.

Just because I happen to believe there is no sense in complaining about a trivia game on a site where playing here is a privilege, not a right, does not mean I am "sucking up" to anyone.

What benefit do any of the people here get from defending DebiLee in this case? Oh yes, that's right, what you all don't know is DebiLee gives out special rewards to those of us that aren't out for blood because we got one trivia wrong and need someone else to blame. (That last bit was sarcasm for anyone who might have missed it.)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, I guess I'm going to have to give up on this one and throw in a random letter. I've ripped half my hair out trying to figure it out and I swear I've looked everywhere but it continues to elude me. I can't wait for this trivia to end just to find out where the heck the answer could be found. I swear I am going to have nightmares with this letter sequence tonight. shuffles off to see how much a decent wig will cost to cover all the bald spots on my head......

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Got the last one right..but I've looked everywhere for the current trivia. No luck yet. =(

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Last one was tough. :/ There are plenty of places where you could find all those colors plus one extra... I would have never thought of the Gems, seeing as we haven't even had any Galactic pets released in some time.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

AMG! The last trivia was so easy and I never got it right DX I can't believe I didn't think of gem colours T_T I dunno this one either T3T lul

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Bleh, I based my answer off of spectrum pets/items, so of course the missing color I came up with was purple. Oh well... so much for being easy. shrug

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The last trivia never actually asked what COLOUR was missing. It just asked WHAT was missing.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

"black - while DEFINITELY INCLUDED IN THE QUESTION - is not a DM Dice color =3"

Nope, it isn't, but it IS one of the colours of the dm eyeballs :-p

(guess who else thought the answer was purple? <<<)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I put brown because it was the only colour in the Carnival picture that was missing from the list and all the other colours from the list were there. I figured I was wrong, but had to put something I did check out a number of coloured items - like the new brooms and so forth, but many were either missing one from the list, or there was more than one missing colour. I do think it was kinda vague. There are any number of sets of coloured objects that could have been the 'correct' set, and no other clue in the description to narrow down which set to use.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

To all those people who were complaining about the colors in the darkmatter dice...I WOULD like to point out that black - while DEFINITELY INCLUDED IN THE QUESTION - is not a DM Dice color =3

I got the q right...but this sequence one is makin me eyes hurt xD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, Sp4de, not everyone uses Google as their search engine. I use a charitable one and I got an article that held the same information, that was actually authored by a respectable group in the field and got a different answer.

As would anyone who knows they are right, I am having a VERY hard time accepting the "wrong" answer when I had it in b&w in front of me. All I am saying is; when people have their own web site, then they can have their own trivia game and pick the "right" answer for themselves.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

When I answered purple I thought "this is too good to be true." Apparently I was right about something...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Your answer dream for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Blueberry Throwing Pie and 408sP

Cool
Off to look for this trivia answer...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Hehe, actually got one right. Just did a random guess on the new one, so I doubt I'll get that. Ah well, not a big deal. Reading everyone's comments helped me in more ways than one. (Namely, seeing how annoyed so many people are getting convinced me to not spend more than five minutes on a Trivia. As well, to take it with a grain of salt. After all, I already spotted a major flaw in the system that no one's even mentioned, but it doesn't enable cheating so I'm not about to mention it. It's inconsequential.)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Bagheera, I remember that trivia and if the question had been copied and pasted in google everyone would have gotten it right. It is not Debi's fault if people choose to reword or shorten trivia questions.

I honestly don't see how this question was hard for anyone who has played subeta actively for about 2 months. A list of colors and the question "What is missing?" seems pretty straightforward to me. Especially considering when it was posted.

Trivias are meant to be challenging. You can come up with 2 or 10 different theories but only one is truly correct.

It's the different types of gems from the Coda Caves. Dream is the type of gem that was missing from the list. =)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

No, I don't think so. I'd rather defend the situation so that the people who are incapable of finding the answers don't end up ruining the trivia because I quite enjoy them and have had no problems with the way they're carried out.

Blaming your wrong answers on anyone you can find doesn't change the fact that it was indeed your mistake.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Wow... I really thought the answer was purple. wonders how the answer is dream

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I just have to say. I didn't even try this last "super easy" trivia cause, um, it wasn't a giveaway answer like the question led you to believe. It was just another ordinary trivia, IMO. 'Course I realize I am not allowed to have that here but bear with me.

Awhile back there was a non-Subeta related trivia regarding people giving pets gifts. Plenty of people got it right, but plenty of us got it wrong. This was the one time I had to point out the innaccuracy of the question to Debi, who, 99% of the time I support. But in this instance, at the very least, there WAS more than one CORRECT answer. She was quoting a very specific source, but those of us who didn't look at THAT source got a completely different, yet still CORRECT answer.

The moral of the story is; Debi (and other staff members) are human. They are NOT perfect. And guess what? No one in here is! The lesson I learned from that experience was, if I get it wrong and I really like the item - buy it. It really aggravated me and turned me off to trivias for awhile but the other option is not to play at all and I don't want to do that.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Trivias are always Sub related Unless it says (Non-subeta related) at the end.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Your answer dream for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Blueberry Throwing Pie and 408sP

Wow, I thought everyone would get this! -blink-

I don't call it sucking up, I call it people who are too positive to complain all the time.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh inta_xonem, yes. They're subeta related. Otherwise it'd be impossible

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

If you dont want to hear people complaining, what other point is there to coming to the trivia news? People aren't allowed to drop hints so... it's for complaining and general trivia comments. Deal with it. (AKA stop complaining about people complaining)
