My question was:

In Doomlord which of the following skills allows to tame a pet?

pet training
leadership
learning
trapping

The question is valued as "Bad, incorrect question"!
According to evaluators only a special group of people might know the answer.

But since it is about the game it's asked within why only a special group?

someone just starting the game wouldn't know the answer. also, what could be asked about the game is surely asked by now so i suggest you asked something else.

I cant see what is wrong, please explain.

How does bits and bytes relate ?

They don't relate to each other
They are both computer terms
They are both food terms
They are both masonry terms

The question is valued as "Bad, incorrect question"!
Your answers are ambiguous or wrong to this question.

Also I found this quiz:

Which part of the lobster has the most meat?
The head
The cheast
The tail
The claws

See the problem? Spelling error on answer 2, correct is "The chest".
Yet the quiz guide says
If your question is simply bad, unanswerably hard, there are spelling errors in it, demands lexical knowledge or only a special group can answer it, you will get 'Bad question' valuation


Just who are evaluating these quizzes ?

That's the only one I see. On a side note, I'm still waiting for answers on my previous post...

Mitillos, I have found anything even vaguely math sounding gets rejected.

Here's one example of a rejected one of mine.
How can the fraction 2/5 be written as a decimal?
2.5
0.4
5.2
1.3

No math needed. If you know what a fraction is, you know the answer. Although it was clearly too math-like for the evaluators.

it was mentioned here several times: if you deny something in your answers, it surely gets the ambiguous answers evaluation - in your case, if they don't relate, why are you asking about it?

When will The Oprah Winfrey Show end ?

2011 September 9
2011 October 9
2011 November 9
There is no ending date yet

The question is valued as "Bad, incorrect question"!
According to evaluators only a special group of people might know the answer.

9 out of 10 questions do I have to look up!! Really..then the millions of people who watch Oprah is a "special group".
Instead of rejecting questions should these evaluators review the ones already in the database. Some are just plain weird and some use running dates, which clearly indicates the question was created in 2009.

So it's ok to have science, literature, art, history, sports, movies and television and so on, but not mathematics? What's up with that? Besides there ARE some mathematical and even arithmetic questions already in the database. For example, the questions about Roman Numerals are simply arithmetic.
I honestly think that the quiz evaluator(s) is/are being highly subjective in their judgements...

My question was:

Which country do not grow coffee?
Brazil
Ethiopia
Indonesia
Italy (*)

A few seconds after submitted, I realized my grammatical error but I have no chance to correct it.
There should be [Edit] or [Withdraw] option for us. These will also put less burden to our evaluators.

Maybe rewording your question to 'What do the terms bits and bytes relate to?' would be far better.

It's not an American game, but more basic facts of the American history are known worldwide than specific questions about UK. And yes, I noticed the misspelling of Berkshire, too.
On the other hand, evaluation is always a subjective thing and depends on the culture of your country. We tried another method - player evaluation - but it proved to be a disaster.
So I may only suggest you to write less specific questions.


At least I got a response!! But I disagree with you. The basic facts of American history is not known worldwide and if anything the United Kingdom or more specifically the British Empire has more basic facts that is more popular than that of the United States. But, lets agree to disagree!!

What the evaluators should do is allow all questions to be passed as the internet is a worth while tool to investigate for the solution. This way EVERYBODY learns. The only thing that the evaluators should do is REJECT questions that is wrong or contains spelling mistakes.
