For Those Members With Slower Connections

Added by wewannawin on Friday, 9th September 2011 at 4:05am

How about the quiz cgs being modified to make it a bit fairer for those with slower connections?

Rather than it always being the first person to correctly answer as the winner the CM chooses a random number between 1 and 9 - to be announced at the end of the countdown - so for example 3 2 1(5) or 3 2 1(2) etc

Thank you to everyone for their feedback

@CMs
I realise that it may take some getting used to for the members as they are used to it being first to answer, but if several (or all) CMs used the same format then I am sure people would pick it up in no time.

I don't think it will be the same people each time if a different number is used for each game - at the moment it usually is the same people (those with the fast connections wink)

@ cm tracey...
the way i did it i used the normal countdown 3 2 1 but on the 1 i put 1 (?) where ? was a random number as suggested, there is no way that the players know that number till then so the cant always know when to press enter, i found the problem was people repeated entering the answer so it was nigh on impossible to read chat let alone discover who had the right answer!!
