I'd say ditch the bible trivia, but then I'd probably go to hell for that :D

Leave it as is - we all have an equal chance of landing some random questions, which we may or may not know.

Happy to stay as we are, even though I would probably prefer History & Geograph, Movie, Sport and/or Science and Technology. I think I won yesterday with a 10/10 but only got 6/10 today, started well but then had to guess the last 4 and got them all wrong. At least you can learn something when some of the questions are outside of your field of knowledge.

I'm in with 'Monty's Order' today. I have no clue as to what it is that the Cincinnati Reds even do.
May the bridges I burn light your way

I've noticed that if one of the options is 'all these', that is nearly always the correct answer.
Having got two North American sport questions today, I'd like UK Trivia!

Technically the Cincinnati Red Legs, they play baseball in the National League. They were world series champs 30 years ago with Pete Rose, Johny Bench, et al. I don't imagine I will get that question this month!

I've just done the quiz.
:shock: :shock: :shock:
My North American sports question - you know the one that gives me such a huge advantage - was "I was selected 4th in the year that Michael Olowokandi went 1st. I once scored 51 points in back to back games, who am I?"
:? :? :?
7/10 - seem to be starting the month how I ended it. :cry:

Think it must be a book. Not one I know though.
