I am having problems accessing the whole doomlord site. It keeps going off. Once over Xmas for several hours then at New Year and again for a few hours tonight. I could understand it over the holidays but surely not tonight.

As far I can see there are no spelling errors. The apostrophes used are also conventional.

It is weird since no obvious mistake is there. Did you put capitals on south pacific now or did you post the question like that in the first place?



No I only put it in capitals so you would know which was the correct answer.

I think I am going to have to pack in this game. I am beginning to doubt my own sanity.

Where did 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' take place?

England
Germany
France
RUSSIA

According to evaluators only a special group of people might know the answer.

I am sorry but I don't understand this reason at all. If that reason for rejection is valid, it applies to every question asked. The Charge of the Light Brigade is renowned in history, movies and literature.

Where is the consistency?

Further to my last post, I have just asked two similar questions about Troy and Gladiator and both were accepted. How are these different?

I find the evaluation of quiz questions more confusing the more I present them.

My last one was a fairly straightforward one about "The Simpsons" and was rejected because 'only a special group of people would know the answer'.

I would have thought that "The Simpsons" was a global cartoon series and one that would have been seen by most people playing this game. And you don't need to be special to watch it.

And surely almost EVERY question is one that only a special group of people would know? Around half the questions I have come across can only be answered correctly by those who google or who have specialist knowledge.

I am not complaining that the question was rejected but wondering if it was rejected because the evaluators felt it was 'dumbed down' and trying to work out just what is acceptable and what is not.
