Hi, I just got a new computer too. Fun and frustration all at once.

You can try this or have somebody try it for you. The first section will delete all autofill info. The second part will let you delete specific entries.



You’ll just need to head over to Chrome’s settings. If you want to delete all autofill entries and saved text, follow these steps:


Click the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar (the icon featuring three vertical dots)

Select More Tools > Clear Browsing Data

In the dialogue that appears, check the “Autofill form data” checkbox, then select the amount of data you’d like to delete from the dropdown menu at the top of dialogue box. (Select “the beginning of time” to clear everything.)

Click the “Clear browsing data” button when finished



If you want to just delete specific autofill entries:


Click the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar and select Settings

Click “Show advanced settings” and find the “Passwords and forms” section

Select Manage Autofill settings.

In the dialog that appears, select the entry you’d like to delete from the list.

Click the “x” that appears at the end of the row.

Voila!



Hope this helps.

It did indeed, Wolf. Thank you.

I've switched back to IE. Chrome was like being in a hyperactive carnival with flashing lights and colours and noise everywhere etc. Too much sensory stimulation. Just ghastly. I'm surprised my brain didn't have an electrical surge or something. IE is lovely and sedate and calm.

Great!

Only you know what works best for you.

I had to change to a new to me laptop and it has made me almost bald.

I got a Difficult challenge yesterday to score approx 6000 points in the Obscurity game. I'm wondering if this challenge is appropriately tuned given it's a two-hourly game now.

For example, to get 1000 points you'd need 11 correct in 100 seconds, which itself is an above average score. You'd then need to do that six times, which would take at least ten hours if you play in every set. This is the sort of tuning you'd expect for Epic.

The 'Get 1st or 2nd in FMI' challenge also must be harder since it now runs on a four hour schedule, though I wouldn't know how that fits in the overall picture.

Why is "England" not an option for location, when Scotland and Wales are? Could it be added, pretty please?

In these Forums, your location is listed as England, UK. This is from your profile page: Location: England, Europe


Where would like England to be provided as a location?

I tricked the system into thinking there is a town named England.

And I suppose the main hamlet is a few houses called London?

Hi, the X challenge in the Random Idea Chamber lists Humanities as one of two topics that earn an X point this round but its giving credit for World quizzes, not Humanities quizzes.

In the Third Great Quiz Race leg 6, the challenge "Tug of War" requires you to play Team vs Team. That's not possible anymore. I leave it to the powers that be to decide if they want to remove it, or change it to something different.

Oh, and while I'm at it - the level 125 challenge "Legendary Champion" is the one with the monthly badges, but Fifty-Fifty isn't included, since it was added after the challenge was. Deliberate, or just forgotten?

I think I've mentioned this ages ago, but the problem still occurs.

My Difficult daily challenge was to play a new quiz within 20 minutes of it going online. A link is provided to the new quizzes. However, new quizzes do not appear on this list for 20 minutes so the link is virtually useless. Would it be a problem to provide a link to The Buzz instead? Those new to FT may not be aware that this is the place to find quizzes immediately they go online.

This was brought up on the chat boards a while ago. There we were informed by some mighty editors that when a quiz goes online it is listed immediately on the front page. There is no longer the announcement in The Buzz, a 20 minute wait, notice on the FunTrivia front page.

When I try to play the New Question Game today, I get a message: "An unexpected error has occurred. We are unable to continue. Administrators have been notified of the problem.'

If that is so, then it needs to be fixed ASAP. If not, consider this a notice. It needs to be fixed ASAP because it is a team game for League A and I would like to contribute to my team effort.

I just got the same message. (Running Windows 8.1 with Firefox browser.)

I Played got all right in 5 Seconds Where's My Badge JK Same Message.

I have the same problem, and I've tried several times throughout the day. It's also one of my team games. But I'm glad it isn't just me

Please try new qn game now. We ran out of "new questions" and it got confused. I tweaked it to suck in some "mostly new" questions.

I just played so thank you. I did poorly (only 5 right) but that's not FT's fault, obviously. I appreciate the response. For over an hour, I kept getting that message. I have no idea whether the "administrators" it referred to were FT administrators or some other type of administrators (maybe network). But even if it was a network problem, it was exclusive to the URL for the New Question Game, since I had no trouble playing any other FT game, so I felt I needed to report it.

Thanks again.

Fixed here now too, scored 8 which is pretty good for me. Thanks Terry!

Forgot all about it oh well I guess after all there's always tomorrow.

A player has reported on the Boards not getting the 100 FT points due them for playing the Global Challenge bonus game and achieving a qualifying score. I believe the problem is that Division 1 does not get FT points, but the player reports seeing an end-of-game message saying that points were awarded. As I am not in Division 1 myself, I cannot confirm what happened here.

https://www.funtrivia.com/bb.cfm?action=details&qnid=30974&boardid=13

If an end-of-game message does appear in Division 1 saying points were awarded, this may be an error which needs to be fixed.

I've reported this issue several times before over the last couple of years but it still hasn't been amended:

The editorial staff handling the single questions - as opposed to full quizzes - has take a question I wrote on James Stewart in my quiz "And They Lived Happily Ever After" - and used it as a single question.

Unfortunately though, in the quiz, the answer for this question only allows for the answer of James Stewart - the name by which he was credited in every single one of his movies - but if it has been used as a Fill Me In single question, the answer still only allows for the one answer of James Stewart, whereas James Stewart was also known to his family and friends etc as Jimmy Stewart.

I have asked several times for this answer choice to be amended to "James Stewart & Jimmy Stewart", but it apparently still hasn't taken place and I'm fed up to the back teeth with receiving correction notices from indignant players who have answered "Jimmy" instead of "James".

Can this be adjusted please? Some of those correction notes are quite aggressive.

Or should I delete the entire quiz?

This would be best handled by an editor in the category where the quiz resides, which appears to be Celebrities. As all of the questions are multiple choice, it is not possible to amend them to take alternate answers. What can be done is to remove the question from the pool for the Fill in the Blank game. What is needed is an instruction from you, in the space provided on any one of those correction notes, requesting that the question be removed from the pool. Pulling MC questions into the FITB pool is a fairly recent development, and sometimes unsuitable questions are quite innocently chosen.
I do notice that the MC answer in the quiz is "Jimmy Stewart", which to my mind should be changed to "James Stewart", as that was how he was normally billed for films and so forth.

If someone encounters a FMI question that says "Only one EXACT answer is accepted for this qn" (indicating it was originally multiple choice) and there should be multiple acceptable answers, they should "report that this question should not be in this game" instead of sending a correction notice.
