Played just fine about two hours ago. Tried again just now and received the following error: (on a mobile device..tried two different browsers for some junior troubleshooting..same result on both)

"An Unexpected Error has Occurred We are unable to continue because an error has occurred.
The administrators have been notified of the problem.

Please hit back on your browser to continue."

Tried a few time just in case it was a momentary hiccup but it has continued for about 10 minutes now

I'm getting the same error. Maybe Terry's doing more tweaking.

Same error for me as well:

"An Unexpected Error has Occurred
We are unable to continue because an error has occurred.

Looks like there is the problem with the link.

Is this just a way to use the single questions in something new then? The ones that are "good" but too challenging for other games? I like the concept in doing that.

I only ask because I went to "play the quiz" link on a couple and was told, "There is no quiz".

I saw at least one question that I thought I recognised from a complete quiz, but I could be wrong. I thought it would be a mix of both, just as the other timed games currently are.

Hmm not sure what you were clicking on -- that is not an error message that I know of in the Fifty-Fifty hourly game?? Please copy/paste error message exactly if you see it again.

Hi terry,

When the answer is displayed with interesting info, there is a option (play the quiz), when the questions are from New Question Game in the hourly games (also in Fifty Fifty), And you click on that link (play the quiz) it displays the message 'there is no quiz', this is not an error, I believe! smile

This is what to be meant:

"39% of FunTrivia players have answered this question correctly in the past.
Question by player maninmidohio. (play this quiz!) I see an error - submit correction..."

When you click on play this quiz link, it shows-

"
There is No Quiz
This is likely referencing a single-question submitted by a player. It has no associated quiz."

At the bottom of each question, after the info, is the following:

31% of FunTrivia players have answered this question correctly in the past.
Question by player debodun. (play this quiz!) I see an error - submit correction...


If you click on '(play this quiz)', you are sometimes taken to a page that says:

There is No Quiz
This is likely referencing a single-question submitted by a player. It has no associated quiz.

This is common on all games, across the site. It's not an 'error', rather an explanation as to why there isn't an associated full-length quiz.

Just wondering are the monthly stats updating my stats show me playing 3 games when I've played 9 and I'm stuck at 19 when I should moved up or down in the rankings by now?

I think it's all still in the testing stage, and everything will reset when the game goes 'live'.

I would expect the slate to be wiped clean when it goes live. Things backstage are changing, and the sets we play now may or may not be typical of the way they will have their questions allocated in the end. what is perhaps more to the point, the field will be much larger, which means the statistics from this stage would not be relevant, particularly those for the monthly challenge.

Please also filter out 'all of these' and 'none of these' questions.

May also have to filter out questions that say which of the following four answers.

A reminder for when making the final adjustments in the wording - now that it is a two-hour game:
"Schedule: A new game starts at the top of each hour."

Also "both of these" and "neither of these". (Those were the two choices on a question.)

Terry, is this game still going to be once a day for non-gold members and every game available for gold members?
