I have several board games with trivia questions, if you need trivia
questions. I own several trivial pursuit games along with one called TV
Guide Trivia and some others as well.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Accessible Jeopardy?
Hi Jim,
Well, I don't own a database of questions either, but I'm pretty sure I
could create one pretty easily. Thanks to my college education I often
times can hold my own when listening to Jeopardy, and my extensive
studying of history, geography, science, art, and music could probably
be used to create the beginnings of a decent database. Plus I suppose I
could always purchase the board game from the store, and use it as a
starter database as well.
The only problem I have with Trivia and quiz games is that since the
developer has to know the answer to every question asked there is no way
he or she can lose unless there is some kind of custom database created
by other gamers. That's where your Trivia engine comes in handy because
if I create a Trivia file I will know the correct answers, but if
someone else created the file I won't necessarily know all the answers.
So I would say that having some way to add custom databases or quiz
files would be necessary here.

Hi Thomas,
You make a very good point about spelling the answers in a Jeopardy game.
And the multiple choice doesn't seem to be a real good solution either.
My other problem with making a Jeopardy game is that I do not own a data
base of questions and answers. That is what has been nice about people
creating and sharing trivia files for my trivia game engine.

Computers run on smoke. Yep, that's why that if you see all of the smoke
coming out of your computer it ain't gonna run no more.
