New Scaratings

Passport. I learned a lot and had a great time playing this game.
Million Dollar Match. It not only involved trivia, but motor skills and math skills to hit the points needed.
and lastly, I could not leave this post without a hand raised for my ol' pal ROYL.

I used a calculator for MDM.............is that cheating?

Abused News

I really enjoyed Passport. On a cold, dark January night I went into a strip mall in Fairfax, Va., and played a game about Presidential Birthplaces and was hooked. Booked my 1st 750k in under 20 months; 40% of that total was probably on nights I went out to play Passport. And I always played alone. Hadn't discovered the online community yet.

Having gushed about the game, I understand why it couldn't remain on the schedule in its final format. The game had 29 Q's over the course of an entire game, the writers focused too much on tourist-ee stuff to the exclusion of history and architecture, and (of course) it was easily borgable. So I suppose it's okay that it's gone.

Still, I really enjoyed reading up on some places I'll probably never go. (talkin' about you Djibouti)

Restore Order. Was a fun change of pace. Couldn't play it with lag, though.

If I remember correctly, you could only use the small numbers to answer a question. That might be the only time I ever used those numbers to answers questions. I would also like to see Abused News back, it was a fun game to play.

Sports IQ.

Yes, I wish it was back on Monday nights on the main trivia channel. It is a shame where that game is on right now, another bad move by NTN.

I almost posted that but was unsure if it was on channel C.

It is on Channel C.

My original post still stands.

Yup, that's why I learned to play solely with the small keys.

I remember that particular game because ANGEL and I made a special trek to Famous Daves (wow, it's been a while!) on a snowy and icy Wednesday with the sole intention of playing that game. Of course, most sane people decided to stay home and the manager decided to close early that night...right before Passport. UGH.

Let me add another vote for Abused News (preferably in a better timeslot than 11 PM Fridays) and Restore Order (though I'd rather not have to use the little red buttons if possible).

We used a calculator for the m.d.m also,heck no it was'nt cheating,it was a necessity. Still got all my old pins for matching,I wonder if I can trade them in for some p.p.points

I'm another one for Abused News.

'Glory Days' in it's original format was fun to me.

Hell, even with a calculator I never got a match!

The best I ever got was within 10 points, another fun part was if you were over and had to get a negative 250 points on a question that you knew, that happened a lot

It's coming back to the main trivia channel, just announced on BT website.

Tis true Just got this email internally:


Beginning February 14th, SIQ will be moving from Buzztime Sports to Buzztime Trivia. The game will also move to Sunday evenings at 4:30pmPT/7:30pmET.
