A new trivia question has been added!

Agh, I hate number trivias so much. Ah well. I'm not good at any trivia. I'll just have to keep on trying!
Merf. I'm sure I got this one wrong becasue I stink at number trivia. When will the next trivia be up, actually?
wow...finally! what a clever trivia!
! goes to rest
Poor Debi, Hope she is better soon. Seems everyone is down under these days....after many hours of searching I think I finally found it.
...crosses fingers I got it right.
I found the answer after I already guessed... I'll have to buy the prize from someone when it's over hehe.
this one was tricky to me.
Lol I dont think I'll ever understand these looks oh well puts in random number and hopes for the best
poor debi, shes been sickly lately, i hope that shes ok
OMG i think I got this one right
pulls debi out of bed
Wakey wakey Debi! Time to change the trivia! ![]()
I don't think I've EVER seen that many answer, but it was almost 800 within an hour or two of being posted (or so I recall).
After 24 hours I finally manage to find the answer. Yay for me! xD
Yes, found it put I'm not sure put every thing or not. Xo

Yay! Now I can search on the site.
It is indeed Subeta related ![]()
The trivia hasn't ended because Debi hasn't been on in over 20 hours ![]()
Subeta related? Or count?
2344 users have tried this trivia. This trivia was added by: DebiLee
O.O No way.. It's not that easy.. Why hasn't the trivia ended yet, Debi?
Lawl 2337 users have tried this trivia.
Who does that? Sits around and counts letters in the words and then applies it to trivia? I barely have enough time since school started to click back on a page I might have opened 5 hours ago. Can I have some of your free time?=P
Debilee's comment was obviously sarcasm, no serious tone in it whatsoever, but Flit your joke had to hint of sarcasm, and did not seem intended as a sarcastic joke as debilee's comment so obviously was.
xP This one is fun. I think I got it for once.
-just throws in a random number that's probably wrong anyway- oh well. lol new trivia please ![]()
Flit - I'm not so sure your point is completely applicable, in this case, but okay. I guess, in the end you can choose to take Debi's statement personally or not. Make the choice. Maybe she was poking fun at a select few and trying to make the rest of us laugh. If that is the case, then I am currently choosing to be in the latter group. I am laughing. Good joke. Funny, funny Debi! Ha ha! No numbers for a few days, ok? ![]()
I hate number sequence things. It's not my favorite in math. How about word problems or something else.
I should submit a question on mods. Those are easy if you know time. ![]()
I'll admit I'm getting a bit bored of the number trivias--but that didn't stop me from submitting 3 myself XD
Seriously, not all the trivias should be extremely easy, they'd get pretty boring very fast. It seems to me like the majority of complainers are those who aren't able to get them right. Seriously it's a game, chill out already.
I wanted to add that I actually PREFER the numbers trivia to the trivias where an items definition has been twisted and pretzled so many times you have to take a wild leap and guess to figure it out. But, even then, that's the fun of trivia, right ?
The number ones are frustrating and tricky, but that only motivates me even more. Sure, I hate it when I can't figure it out, but I have found the answer to this one and now think its brilliant. Got me thinking....
I say the number trivias should stay and be mixed in with the other styles.
I think people are getting upset over nothing. The comment was funny and sent a message at the the same time... basically it means quit b******g about the trivia. Play it or don't play it, but don't complain if it's too hard. It's there for fun, so take it for what it is.
It was a joke. A joke that proves a point, however. You see how easily a joke can be presented poorly and misconstrued, because it's in bad taste. Because it's insulting towards those it's about, whether intentionally or not. If DebiLee's comment was a joke, then it was in bad taste and a lot of users were rightly offended. Just because something's not meant seriously doesn't mean it's okay to say it.

If I were on the staff I would be tremendously offended that you even hinted at the possibility that they were favoring certain players. And, as Ariel said - these questions really don't seem to be the kind that require a special skill. I personally think they can be little more difficult to find (mostly because it is sometimes easier to recall where you saw a word/sentence/description than where you saw a number), but I don't think these questions are favorable towards particular players or their talents.
I still fail to see how anyone would be particularly better at finding random numbers (not math) than someone else. The word trivias do put people who don't speak english as a first language (or just not very well) at a disadvantage, how would these put anyone at a better one?
The word trivias are easy, the number ones are hard. It's not difficult to see why people like one kind better ![]()
I can't believe so many people complain about these. It's better than a vaguely worded trivia. At least we KNOW the answer is right when we find it. How many times do people have to say that these have nothing to do with math before other people stop complaining about being bad at math? o_O
I don't see how any one would have an advantage when it comes to answering trivias like this.
Debi posted earlier that only 10 people got the last trivia right so expect to see that prize used again at some point.
I wonder if perhaps someone on staff has a friend who happens to be good at these trivias, and these are being picked for the benefit of that friend.
gee, debilee .. i am sooooooooo glad you decided to do another number-related trivia! i was afraid you'd choose to do somethign silly, and boring, like those dumb word trivias. after all, those are soooo hard .. and these number-related ones are, like, easy-peasy!!
runs sarcasm-check program before hitting post comment button
yup ... we're good.
I wouldn't say practically the same as word trivias. If the trivia involves marmosets, you're more likely to remember where you saw a marmoset than any number.
: Number trivias are not about math or algebra, they are about finding the sequence somewhere on subeta, practically the same thing as word trivias
Whoot I'm SURE I found it :3
I think I found this one ![]()
the more you complain about the number trivias the more she is going to use them... so just get a straw already!
groan Another number trivia? I never know those ones... ![]()
Actually, this has become a number sequence boot camp. DebiLee's creating a group of number trivia savants, even if she doesn't mean to. (okay, last one stumped me, but it stumped MOST people and I don't feel bad for missing it).
I usually like the number ones. They can be tough to find (which I like), but I do end up finding a lot of them. I don't think, however, that they should be released so close to each other. I cringe at the thought of seeing sequence trivia questions (with letters or numbers) over and over again. DebiLee obviously knew people weren't happy with them and thought it was funny to throw another one out there for us. Now that she's made her point, however, I really hope she'll consider spacing them out a little more. The trivia game should be about keeping it fun, varied, interesting, challenging, etc. At least that is what I expect from it.
