Ok, i mentioned this to a few at the pub a while ago, but never actually got round to it :D

Anyway its a quiz that everyone can participate in (you need to register an account and then it keeps track of the scores and stats).

Entirely up to you if you want to take part, but if there is enough response by the end of the month then i will try and modify it to include some bike racing stuff too, but for now its general trivia (although it does tend to be 'Americanised' so be warned :D ).

Anyway the link (oh and i have already had a go after setting it up and even i dont get to see what questions its going to ask!)

http://my.funtrivia.com/tournament/The-Essex-Bikers-Daily-Trivia-Challenge-73083.html

Go to "play todays game" and you will be prompted to create an account, make sure you use your username ;)

The way the questions work is that they should be random general trivia, the question database has 100,000 questions in it and the quiz for each person is generated at random, that means the questions you get could be different to the questions others get (stops people registering a username and then going in for the kill with their proper account ;) :D ).

I should point out though that all the time i was off work with my neck problem, and with sod all else to do most of the time other than sit on the web, i played this most days on the ZX9R Bikersoracle forums :D

Ordinarily i tend to get at least 8 out of 10 right but after a while noticed the same questions could quite easily crop up, so where guess work was working normally, memory was filling in for the rest :D :D

At the end of the month i will give someone else the admin link for it so they can run it as the admin for a month just so they can see that there is no skullduggery involved, and then we can maybe go for a more specific topic (as there are loads to choose from :), the options are quite varied as you can set up the quizz to run a certain category of questions on different days of the week, e.g. Monday could be sport, Tuesday could be People etc etc :)

I certainly havent been able to find one Tez, but i would imagine that if i pick specific categories that should help get rid of some of the more American questions :)
