Who said: “Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.”?
Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943
Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of DEC
Pablo Picasso
Steve Jobs, cofounder of Apple Computer


Marked as a misspelling. This is one I classify as pre-tagging the correct answer since it is the only one without an occupation.

Sorry I didn't get these 2 posted quicker. I had an internet outage.

Who is the best selling female artist of this decade?

Marked as spelling error because we don't know what "this" decade is you are referring to.



What was the name of the Volkswagen Beatle who starred in a few movies in the 70's?

Spelling: For starters, it's spelled Beetle. Second, the question is not really accurate. He was only in 2 movies in the 70's. The original was 1968. There have been 3 that came out later than the 70's.

What is a square root of 81?

No math!!


I understand the theory behind more complicated math, or pattern recognition, but this is as fundamental as "What is Pi to the 4th decimal", "How do you calculate the area of a Circle / Sphere / Cylinder", "Which of these is a Prime Number" and the ever popular / poorly written "a brick weighs 2kg and a half brick"... I think the rule of "no math" is far too rigid, and contrary to the fundamental basis of the quiz (should be able to be answered by anyone of high school education). Math is language-free, taught the same way in every school, and is an integral part of any IQ test. And is standard in contest as a "skill testing question"

I just think this absolute should have some grey area in it.
1+1 = Bad
(9+8-7) x (6/3) = Good
9+8-7x6/3 = Bad
Root of 81 = Good

Problem with math Viridel is the infinite ways a player can keep posting the same type "grey" questions and we would have to accept them if we accepted the previous. Is like the None of the above answer. Both are rejected for the simple reason of flooding the quiz with the same question written in 1000 ways.

However, you have allowed an infinite number of "who wrote", "who painted" and "what's the capital"

I stand by my comment. You've put quantity restrictions on the above three, so allow *some* math to come in, then start tagging with "already in the database" if it starts getting too repetitive.

I've added date, but really, this isn't 'bad' quiz till middle of year 2012, and most chances are that it will be right till 2016. Then it becomes wrong )

A pair of hydroxyl radicals when combined form a molecule of..?
water
none of the listed
hydrogen peroxide
hydrogen oxide

"None of the listed" is a bad answer and this is getting beyond the realm of general trivia.

Whats the good spelling ?
collission
colision
colission
collision

The word "whats" is being used as a contraction for "what is" so it needs an apostrophe. (What's) Also, the quiz font makes telling all the i's and l's apart is too difficult.
