Sports Trivia

Online Games 1 Comment »

I’m a huge trivia buff. I love trivia games and taking trivia quizzes on the Internet. Couple that with a love of sports and I have found a nice sports trivia community. You can take the sports trivia test that is made up of user submitted questions. The quizzes are in category by sport. I did think I knew a lot about sports until taking one of the quizzes.

Some trivia is more obscure than other facts. This can make it more challenging, and you can get to learn some new facts. I don’t mind hard trivia as it just means more when I actually get some of them right. TriviaFix.com has trivia in several popular sports like hockey, basketball, baseball, and football. You can sign up with them to keep tally of your score. There are also monthly prizes to those sports trivia gods who do really well the whole month.

After signing up with Trivia Fix, you can invite your friends to join you. You can play together as a team. What is a sports game without a team anyway? Since all questions come from users, you can submit questions to be added to the mix. On the stats page, you can see the percentage of people who have gotten your question right. Some questions that you thought might be easy might be a bit more challenging. The stats will reveal all.

Players earn points for answering trivia questions correctly. If you view another player taking the lead, then you can challenge them. Simply submit the question you would like to see them answer, then wait to see if they are up to the challenge.

Much like sports in general, Trivia Fix is a challenging and competitive way for sports fans to “get into the game.” Answer questions, challenge players, and develop a team, then get to answering those trivia questions for a chance to win some prizes.

I’m Walking

I really wished I enjoyed walking for the sake of walking. I don’t, though. I’m hoping that by forcing myself to walk each day that a desire to walk will develop.

Saturday I have entered a fundraising walk. It will be good to walk with a lot of people. Too bad there isn’t something going on each weekend like this. I need to tie in my walking with gaming somehow. Maybe for every minute I walk I will allow that much uninterrupted game time the next day. I get Mommy guilt a lot when I play games, so I usually don’t play for that long. But if I have earned 20 minutes or an hour of time that I can take to play games, then maybe the guilt will be lessened. It’s worth giving a shot as I really need some sort of motivation to walk.

My brothers always loved remote controlled airplanes when they were teenagers. As adults, they still loved remote control airplanes and helicopters. In fact, my brother received a remote control helicopter a few years back for Christmas. He promptly went out to test it and then lost it in a field. Luckily my Dad was able to recover the helicopter a few days later.

Seeing all the fun remote control helicopters at HobbyWarehouse.com brings back that fun Christmas memory. You never get too old for remote control vehicles. In fact, the older I’ve gotten, the more expensive my remote control vehicles have become. What is truly get about the hobby is that you don’t have to spend a fortune to have a good time.

Since Christmas is fast approaching, I’m thinking it might be time for my brother to receive another remote control helicopter. With Hobby Warehouse, I can find the perfect one that fits my budget and will make a great gift. Besides I know he will simply love it, and it will be fun for the whole family as well.
