A Challenge to complete: Halloween 2014 (Misc)

This challenge was a time-limited event from Oct 29 to Nov 5 2014. It is no longer available.

Alerting all FunTrivia Teams!
*** Immediate Emergency - all hands report in! ***


The Evil Twin of the Tower's Guardian has escaped and has planted six pumpkin bombs across FunTrivia with the goal of covering all our challenges in yucky pumpkin goo!

He's feeling so safe that he left some graffiti however that may help you defuse these bombs... so get your team together, discuss and strategize, but remember, once it comes to actually defusing those bombs, it's everyone for themselves!

You have a week - until November 4. Good luck!

Just like last year's Halloween Challenge, this is a team-focused event. Share, discuss, exchange information on your team message board - just don't let those rival teams get the information and save FunTrivia from a gooey fate before you can!

The evil one laughs in his lair... "Some of these superstitious folks think they need to wait until the stars are right... how wrong they are."

Attention agents: Maybe exact hitting is needed.

There have been some more evil ramblings overheard on the surveillance system: "...ay of bad luck is the targ... ...ee quick strikes and I'll get that Gene..."

We found some last minute intel on the clues of the evil one, maybe some of these can help:

  • There are scores of dates on every calendar.

  • Three means any three. In both cases.

  • Every cat knows that empty boxes are just as important as filled ones.

  • We should probably introduce the red bomb.

A Challenge to complete: Smarty Pants (Newbie)

Before we now end this tutorial, we would like you to try out one final hourly game: Who's the Smartest?

This game is very much like the easier hourly you've played in the "Easy as 1,2,3" challenge, except the questions are harder and the division boundaries are set differently - there are for example fewer absolute beginners playing this game, so we do not have a special division for levels 1 to 7, but rather have levels 1 to 20 play together. Now level 20 may sound high to you right now, but it's not that far away if you play regularly.

So far, you will probably have gained a few levels already, most likely from accumulated points. This will get harder soon with the gaps between point levels widening more and more. You can check the chart here.

However, most of the challenges in the other halls are each worth a full level if you can solve them, so those will add up as well. A typical level 20 player has between 20,000 and 30,000 points and some 8 to 10 badges. Just check the "reward" line on each challenge to see what you'll get!

The way to level 100 and beyond is long, but you're already on a good start. If you're already level 5 or higher, you will also qualify for special perks - little abilities that you gain to correspond to your more prestigious status.

But now on to the challenge: Head over to the "Who's the Smartest?" game and play three different topics, getting at least seven questions correct. Time doesn't matter - unless, of course, you want to already use the opportunity and go for a badge - for example the Achievement: Harder Hourly Game one in Garnet Complex!

New games start every hour, on the hour. [ 14650 winners so far. ] goto
