I feel there is an error in the answer to yesterdays trivia. Or I'm more tired than I think I am and are reading things wrong.

The length of the Bemiee species is 0.01 meters. True or False?

Answer: false

Yup, I sent in a ticket. This has happened before. It's definitely true, not false.

Oh so I wasn't going crazy. I definitely checked the archives before i put in my answer.That's good to know that it was in fact mostly likely set up incorrectly.

Glad to know I'm not the only one! I also distinctly remember checking the archives before putting in my answer so I was very confused when I got the "you got the site trivia wrong" notification 😭
I want my 10k ec fr I feel cheated :") /hj

This happened a few times before, but I came to check the forums to make sure I wasn't the only one. I believe everyone who got the correct answer should get their 10k EC, at least this is how it got resolved previously.

It may be weird, but I'm not even concerned about the ec. It's more a case of checking I wasn't hallucinating.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused myself, I usually reference the archives for these types of true and false questions.

Kind of surprised this hasn't been addressed yet, last time this happened it was fixed within hours. @Ian

I am starting to wonder if the glitch is being looked into, too, and I'm also starting to worry Triva will glitch again. Well, we still have the glitch from August 6.

@dragongirl02 I got a response to my ticket today and got the 10k reward for the correct answer, I assumed everyone else got their retroactive reward if they'd gotten it right?

@heatherm19
I haven't gotten any notifications saying it was retro awarded, but I also didn't send in a ticket.

As I stated, I wasn't so much concerned about the ec as I was about being told I was wrong when I was sure I was right. The board confirmed I wasn't seeing things, and you stated you'd sent a ticket meaning staff where notified (something I was going to do with confirmation my brain was working despite insomnia induced sleep deprivation), so I effectively dropped it.

@heatherm19
I haven't seen anything on the retroactive fix yet for me, like @minnie298a, I did not bother to put in a ticket at that time as I was multi-tasking, likely with others dealing with other issues, but I did look in here to see if it was just me being confused with the trivia. I normally don't usually do trivia unless the dailies require it.

@heatherm19
Like the two above, I haven't noticed that I've received anything, however I did not send in a ticket 😊

I thought we'd receive a notice like last time, as this was site-wide. I didn't send in a ticket as i didn't want to bombard them with yet another. Very disappointed that it wasn't addressed as efficiently this time.
*IF* I received compensation, I'm unaware of it.
(For me it's more the principle of the matter.)
