During trivia night at the local bar, I was always the best in movies, TV, and science/nature.

In the global I do best in Religion.
In my own environment(not US based quizzes), I do best in Arts and Literature.

Though the title suggests that it's for 'Children', i admit that i'm good at the Children's quizzes. In the global challenge, Hobbies is probably the category i do best in!

If we're talking about Global Challenege, I'm best in Movies, Animals and sometimes General. If we're talking generalities, it's definitley Movies.

I agree with Sue, and that does not happen often

Geography, Sci/Tech, and History (except for the multitude of questions about American generals).

I am good at the childrens literature one's too. In the global trivia challenge I usually do very well in the kids one. sad huh! I am also good at sci and tech and movies, I thought I would be better at literature than I am. As it turns out there are a lot of books I haven't read yet. Just as well.
I am okay at movies although I should do better because it is one of my favourite hobbies, besides reading.

In the global - Sci/Tech and Geography.

It is pretty much the same when not on here - Sci/Tech, Geography and Politics.

Sci/Tech in global with Humanities close behind.

Generally, anything science. I never know those darn American generals even though I am American. Must have dozed off my whole life when the word "battle" or "general" came up in school. Oh, with the exception of General Robert E. Lee-because my name is Lee-how sad!

Sci tech every time. I can be really up and down in all the others as many either involve specialised local knowledge (world and geography) or specialised interests (hobbies and humanities). Sci tech is the same the world over so it's pretty hard to get anything too obscure.

I don't do well in my usual subjects as they mostly deal with American Literature , modern music(?) and shows I never saw.

In the Global it seems to Sci/Tech or Hobbies, in general Celebrities (vs amount of played quizzes). But, I am sure in all reality it's Buffy specifically from TV.

In the Global, probably General, followed by Hobbies and Humanities. I always think I ought to be good at Literature, but the Funtrivia definition of the word isn't the same as mine!

What about worst categories? Mine is definitely sport - UK sport is bad enough, but when you add the US ones, I sink without a trace!
