This question is asking about the whereabouts of a big thing, "the third largest" is only an educational extra in this context.

Could any native speakers help to correct this question properly? (The answers are already corrected.)

I corrected most of the problems.
However a hiker-mauling Teddy-bear could be only the star of a horror movie, so it's an easy tick.

It had been already corrected 4 years ago.
However now we also had to correct the „Who has the most olympic medals?” question, because Larissa Latynina’s 48-years-old record is over.

You are right, the question means: „Where is Vancouver?” However it’s more educational this way, because by reading it anyone can learn that the 2010 Winter Olympic Games were held in Vancouver.

On my first workday in 2012 I corrected most of the quiz question problems of the last weeks.


I wish you a Happy and Successful New Year!

The above mentioned questions are corrected.

Unfortunately our friend Stekkos isn't playing anymore, so now I corrected the questions again.

The programmer says the reward problem is solved. The amounts have been stacked until now and this morning everyone should get his or her reward in the recommendation section with the following text:
"You get X soul-energy as a reward for categorizing."
I hope it's really working now.

If you get a reward for categorization you should see it in the recommendation section. The score for quiz categorization can be seen on your character sheet (under correct quiz answers).

We will check if there is a problem with the reward text or sending out the reward.

This is part of the game. Sometimes it is not easy to find the category the other players will think of.
However the first one should go to „fashion, clothing” category (thank you for finding it was lost in translation). The other may go to Earth in general – I can't find better choice.

Only 10 of the same choice. This way there are no ties.

They are all together.

When there are enough votes, the question is closed, no more changes. However if someone finds the „good” category until the end of day he or she still get s the reward. If a question is closed, after a day you cannot classify it anymore.

There is a small blue question mark above the categorization tool. You can find some comments and helpful hints there about the eras and some other categories.


When the categorization is ready, you can play quiz with the questions in the database – according to categories.

There is no such category, I would use biology/medical science, even if it is not exact.

Yes.


Sorry, there are no more sub categories. However the first should go into „Food and drinks”, the second (because of no better choice) to „Geography/Europe”.

There are more than 25 thousand questions in the database, so be patient. If you are lucky, you can get some reward every day, but if unlucky, you must wait quite a lot before getting anything, but then you may get a bigger amount.

Spain came through a civil war just before the world war 2. Although sympathized with the Axis, the country officially never entered into the war and stayed neutral.
However this neutral thing did not keep Franco from sending "volunteers" to fight the Soviets. On the other hand there were several thousand volunteers fighting against the nazis in France, too.

Yes, I'm still reading this topic and I correct mistakes or delete bad questions if I feel it reasonable.

I corrected/deleted most of the questions here.

Ferociter: Unfortunately this is the double click problem again. Korea was the answer for the next question.

Thank you for your help; questions here are mostly corrected or deleted.

From these answers I (and most of the players) feel Sally better, however I read it in my daughter’s English book as „She sells seashells by the seashore.” It’s an even better tongue twister like that.
So you are right, there were more than one possible answers.

I don't feel it too special. I'm Hungarian, but I read about Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. By the way, that is one of the oldest story of the Arthurian legends.

Aeon Xandana: Corrected.


Not really, especially, because he is Swiss.

The questions are corrected/deleted again.

To the lead pencil: the core is made of graphite not lead, so I corrected the answer.

CORRECTED. BEWARE: if you find it again, the answer will be correct now.


You are right, it’s a bit special, however I think it’s interesting, guessable and if you try to find the answer (I did) quite educational.

The other questions are also corrected/removed.

Actually Clark Kent and Superman are two aliases of Kal-El.

You are wrong. If someone doesn't answer a question it counts as neither good nor bad answer. So it doesn't affect the percentage rate.

I will not go into a debate about these questions.
However I can tell you some of my experiences.

1. Most players never read the forum, so they cannot see the answers here.

2. About 2/3 of the questions get about 50% good answers or less.

3. There are already a number of exceptions in the database we will never remove, even if you do not agree. For example the capital cities.
