A new trivia question has been added!

You really can't make everyone happy, but keep up the good work Debi! I've been enjoying these trivias lately. They've been tough, but really fun trying to figure out. (I didn't get many right, but I still enjoy them!)
oh, boy!
How does a species of Peruvian owl need clarification? How does "artic" versus "arctic" need clarification? I could go on, but I'm not interested. The answer should be such-and-such, but is it so wrong to want to make sure the question writer had such-and-such in mind? You can't take it for granted.
And it's beyond rude to say that someone has "poor reading comprehension skills" because they've been tripped up by awkward trivia answers in the past and want to know that they're submitting the right format this time.
And as for spoon-feeding... the people who want clarification have found the answer, they don't need it fed to them. They just want to know that they're typing it exactly as the trivia demands.

Just because you don't see any problems with the trivia doesn't mean there isn't, it just means that those who are confused are seeing the trivia in a different way then you are. "Simplest form" means vastly different things to different people and its not asking to be spoon fed the answer if someone needs help deciding which simplest answer is the one Debi (or whomever wrote the trivia) was thinking of at the time.
I have more fun winning than not winning.
Agrees with coppy
Exactly, after all, 'have fun' is the biggest rule here.
Laughs at her own lame joke, then goes back to the shadows.
um...aren't we supposed to be "having fun"? if you people have the time to go back and forth like this, i guess you have the time to read the question, and write the answer. this is a game, and a free one at that. i think they are doing a great job. so stop complaining and go have fun!
Er, crap. Don't ask me what happened there.
Honestly, I don't see how format is such an issue on this one. If you really have found the answer, just one look at it should tell you what the "simplest possible answer" is. Any more than that and it would be literally redundant.
Cadence, I don't see how Highlandlass is asking to be spoon fed the answer, especially since she's already found it if she's asking for clarification help. There are many people who have asked Debi for clarification so obviously there is something wrong with the trivia. Just because you don't see any problems with the trivia doesn't mean there isn't, it just means that those who are confused are seeing the trivia in a different way then you are.

Yay...I'm sure I got this one! ![]()
I got the last also, so I guess I'm on a spree...XD
Finally, a subeta related trivia I'm confident I got the right answer. Crosses fingers.
Ok, so I'm still not confident enough not to cross fingers. XD
I changed the Trivia because there were 1500 answers, so it was beyond changeable time-wise. Only 500 of them might have been correct, but there were still 1500 nonetheless. Also, as I had said before, no format notation was necessary for this one; it's an aroma, the question is just asking which one it is.
That was a bit rude, considering how many trivia debacles there have been in the past.
HighlandLass, I have to disagree with you that this question needs any clarification on how to format the answer. The question is asking for an aroma, and Debi always says to use the simplest answer possible. It doesn't get any easier than that, I don't see how else it can be clarified. You can't expect to be spoon fed the trivia, especially considering how easy the question already is.
Yay what sexy prize! It was pretty easy to find^^ I mean it was about rules so yeah...searching through the tour was my best bet XD
Good luck on the next one people...
Umm...okay. Nevermind. Found it. I could have sworn I searched there earlier. Weird. Okay then, I feel (a little) less dolt-y now. ![]()
Pretty easy one this time if you do your homework. At least for me it was.
Am I seriously the only one who does not know this answer? Seriously? I find the hard ones...I win the trivia questions that everyone complains about. But this one. Stumped. Granted, I am being a little lazy with my searching, but still...thank goodness I don't need this prize. I feel like such a dolt. ![]()
First off...Boa, I completely agree with you and your sentiments of how the site is a thorough mess and yet the staff seem to be going about business as if we all had fair and equal access at this point(BTW I got the question right so this isn't sour grapes). Some people have had very little to no problem getting onto Subeta and navigating freely while others have been locked out of the site for long stretches of time, so it really is rude at best to say that everyone had an equal chance at the last one. Next up, I too feel that this new one needs clarification...how many words are we supposed to use to completely and accurately answer this one? Why is there never a clarification on the ones that need them most? Which brings me to my last point...I just know that by the time DebiLee comes back and gives some format clarification(if she even does and no i will not mail her on something that should be posted for everyone to see)the site will most likely be freaking out again and I won't have a chance to enter my answer before a new one is put up. Sure, I could guess, but that is just silly when so many apparently feel this needs format addressed. This has become frustrating to say the least.
lol I didn't even know that tour was there!! Very nice trivia!! ![]()
I got this one... Must... Have... Minion!! ![]()
YAY I got the last trivia sooo happy!!! ![]()
to find the answer was quite easy... but how to put it^^
I hope I got it right, I´m dieing to get this minion either for Rhouge or Gado ![]()
Oh lol. This one's easy, hope I got the format right, since everyone in here seems lost about the format...
And about the last trivia...
I did search on the tour before for another trivia question, but I didn't do it this time.
-Grabby hands at leopard wrap- ;.;
Your answer have fun for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Sheer Leopard Wrap and 307sP
First one I ever got right!!!![]()
o_O Wow i'm one of the 500, go me um yay and stuff.
i hope i got this one right ![]()
i totally found what i think is the answer for this one. i didn't get to answer the last one, tough that wrap does look nice. i hope i got this ione right, i want that minion and i don't have many green minions.
grrrr... I'm 100% sure I have the answer but I to need the format.
I think I have this one.. if the simplest format would be the answer, then I think I have it in the bag. That prize is adorable. <3
In terms of format, Debi always says use the simplest form possible.
Yeah I am not sure about the formatting either ![]()
Oh, I know this one.. what is the format though? Is it just one word?
Hah. XD I got the answer because I gave up trying to think of anything else.
Quitters DO win!
Your answer have fun for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Sheer Leopard Wrap and 307sP
That was a complete guess ^__^
Now for this trivia!
i definately guessed on that last trivia. but the format on this one - aurg. I agree with the rest - whats the format??
Yessssssss... Format.. Format Format FORMAT.
The answer is uber-easy to find, but we definatley need clarification on how many words the answer is. Though it did just ask for the SCENT, I suppose it would be just the one word?
I hope I get this one right!
found the answer...but don't know the format.
I guess I'll just go with either one and hope the one I picked is right.
the problem there is that I didn't know it hadn't submitted. I popped the answer it, hit send and blithely went on my way. Trouble is, I was doing several other things at the same time, multiple pages open and must have missed this one going into a white page or something. It's not the end of the world, thankfully, just a little frustrating when I know i got it right.
well...i found this one...i can only hope i got the format right. (letting us know how many words would have helped!!!!)
Miki you can try resubmitting it, normally if it didn't take the answer it should let you submit it again.
awww man! I answered that, but somehow it glitched and didn't take, grrrr. No prize for me.
Yay! Thanks for adding my trivia Debi
(Never thought it would be good enough to get picked)
Good Luck Guys ![]()
I'm sure I got this one right ![]()
I didn't even know there was a tour page, I would have never found the last question even if it was up for weeks ![]()
As for this one I found it but the format is very confusing, I wonder why we're always given the format on the easy ones ![]()

Well, I only made a guess. ![]()

Oh my! XD
Now to find this trivia!
Yeah, same thoughts like Crysti!
I mean, i'm from same timezone like Boa, but i was able to sit in front of my computer 12 hours per day, cause i had nothing to do! And i was able to play around 3 out of 12 hours, rest of time was downtime. That is not much, especially if you have not the patient to refresh all 10 seconds just for playing 5 minutes. I mean, nobody want to blame anyone for this situation but the side is mostly running while we are sleeping, cause thats the time where the admins comes back from work or school or whatever and try to fix the game.
