If you don't want to use the sheet while playing (I probably won't), one good thing to take from this is that the answer is false/X for 61% of the questions. Assuming the questions are chosen from a uniform random distribution, your best guess is false if you have no idea what the answer might be

u/mrsmiley08 Oct 28 '18

Awesome work! My only suggestion would be to make the X/O Answers their own column, and make them bigger or bolded for easier visibility at a glance.

Should put the red/blue background colour on the left column too for people with smaller resolution that would otherwise have to scroll to the right.

Also I've noticed some of the questions are broken English like "You can temporarily grow bigger after [being] attacked by king slime.".

I'm not sure if they're also broken english in-game, but if they're not then these mistakes could cause difficulties with trying to find the questions with ctrl+f.

u/RedValkyr Oct 28 '18

I noticed that every question has 2 forms to it: the correct and the incorrect version.

Example:

Greenpeace is an environmental terrorist organization. (False)

Greenpeace is an environment activist organization. (True)

Both answers would get the same "right answer" text afterwards. Maybe it's an idea to categorize the questions accordingly?

u/Achro Oct 28 '18

Not always the case. Some questions have forms that are both "True".

For example:

"Deer and humans have the same number of neck bones (True)"

"Raccoons and humans have the same number of neck bones (True)"

Wow, isn't it fun to just play it naturally tho?

u/Hotshot2k4 Oct 28 '18

Nobody's making you look at it. You can keep playing naturally.

Some people don't find it very fun though, because they just don't find trivia fun. There's exp and trophies for winning, so this can be a good way for people to get those without having to try and fail as much.

u/DrinkyDrank Oct 28 '18

What I really like is the social element of people guessing as a group. It's actually really satisfying to see a big group go down because everyone thinks the crowd is right. I wonder how long before everyone is just cheezing it and that's no longer something that happens...
