Valiant Trivia

Post by cjv »

If anyone plays Quiz Up out there, I have created a Valiant Trivia category. I am working on population with questions (I have 25 right now) that will be a mix of new Valiant, old Valiant, and business Valiant (things like who is the CEO, when did they first publish, etc.).

Most of the questions right now are old Valiant, but I plan to add more on a regular basis. I just have to take a break for Thanksgiving right now. :)

If you have ideas for questions, go ahead and send them to me. I will be moderating the group and can let people know what the activity is like. Once I get about 100 questions, I want to send a message out on Twitter or something.

(BTW, you can do images, so if you want to send me a question with a picture, just include the image - it can be part of a cover, identify this character, etc.)

By the way, I am trying for varying difficulty in the questions. I don't want ones that only diehard fans will know, but I don't only want super easy ones either.

I have always had a blast making the Valiant trivia game for the poker night. Super fun.

I've got a copy of some promotional trivia from original valiant back in the day. I've done the trivia contest with it a couple times on the board. I'll dig it out of my filing cabinet at some point and type it up for you.

Try it out if you like:

http://quizup.com/topics/_aa043108-68b1 ... b070ec1474" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I would say the questions are currently about 60% old Valiant, 40% new Valiant, but I hope to add more questions as time progresses. (certainly let me know if you notice any mistakes or typos!)

I started following this and have undertaken the quiz a few times. As a newer fan (2012) I'd like to see some more current questions but overall I think this is pretty cool :thumb:

Thanks for setting this up, CJV! I just played a round, and will play more. It's a good way of learning about the Valiant U, especially to somebody like me, who got on board through VEI.

Plus, that whole site is really cool...

The purpose of a tie-breaker is not to create a tie! :P

I hope to add new questions for the newer stuff. There are about 110 questions right now, I hope to add 3 to 5 new ones each day (I have a few of the TPB sitting out at home right now).

I can post updates here as the the rankings. Plus, you can challenge other people and follow them to compete directly.

That is one perspective.
