The site trivia, back around October, was quite unique. There were questions with silhouettes, "what creature am i?" questions (for example, "My long tongue can reach into vending machines to steal sweets. What creature am I?" and the answer was Snop) and other cool things like that. Now, the trivia is just "The Aig's weight is 4.00 kilograms. True or False?"


I would like to see more challenge and diversity in the Site trivia. It is quite dull and all you have to do is look in the archives for that particular creature. Back then, you had to know about the game, which is what trivia should be.

I agree. It's too easy and you could just look in the archives.

Plus the prize is 10,000 EC for super easy questions.

I think they wanted to encourage more attentiveness and interaction with the archive.


It's an easy 10k, but I'd personally like to see them keep the easier one, but offer up a more difficult one too for more EC like 25k :-)

Yeah, nice idea 😊 I know nobody uses the archives these days 😋 the questions are just boring an dull. A question like "what is the newest creature" is better than "the Biwo's weight is ___ kilograms. True or false?" I mean seriously.

@jello I think I saw a "what creature am I" question a week back. Didn't get my 10k that day ☚ī¸

@iris1929578

I like true or false questions though ... also two-part questions where you have to submit more than one answer. 😊

The first trivia question was pretty good, like "how many columns hold up the town hall" or something, something that leads away from the archives and goes to other owl,aces in ark.

Ooh, I just got I great idea:

How many trees are on ark?

LOL that's super hard

Edit: @srx2002

Yeah, but they're pretty rare these days.

Hey, for an easy, 10,000 đŸĒ™, I'm not complaining. 😉
That's roughly 100 fed creatures.

Still, how about have TWO different quizzes. One regular one
(the current one) and a more difficult one. Better yet, have
three different questions: one easy with a SMALL prize
( 1,000 đŸĒ™ ) a medium one worth a moderated prize
( 5,000 đŸĒ™ ) and a difficult one worth a hefty prize
( 10,000 đŸĒ™ ). You could even make it so you can only
answer one of them to limit the amount people can earn and
force them to make a choice.

@megadash
I so agree!

But like Hey! Doesn't everyone want some quick cash?
The questions are dull, I can't say anything to that but if we had more than one question for different prizes (like megadash said), wouldn't Ark be a better place.
