Bitcoin Forum

(No riddle for the title of the topic this time :)).

I'm back with another quizz, don't worry, it will probably be the last one before a very looooong time :).

If you liked my first quizz, this quizz is still on Kahoot and is in the same spirit : easy/difficult serious/less serious questions. You can see the questions from the first quizz here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5290175.msg55679332#msg55679332).

How does it work ?
- There will 21 questions.
- 4 propositions per question.
- Only 1 correct answer.
- 20 seconds to answer the question.
- 1000 points are at play per question.
- The faster and better you answer, the more points you will score. You will get almost 1000 points if you answer correctly and very quickly. And you will score 500 points if you answer correctly but almost at the end of the countdown.
- If you make a mistake or answer after the 20 seconds, you will score 0 point.

There are only 50 spots available. Put the same pseudo as on Bitcointalk. Obvious cases of cheating will be deleted from the leaderboard.
There is nothing to win.

Good luck.

I'm topping the chart so far.
Let's see how it goes.

I'm so bad at this. I got caught with wrong spellings and also the two accounts used by a global mod. I would probably end up last here hehe. The pressure to answer fast for maximum points can make you rush your answers.

Great quiz overall. It gives you a lesson on forum history and it was fun. I have to admit that I kept laughing on a lot of my mistakes.

Love these quizzes  :) This is a good one , a nice mix of questions  :)
Only 2nd place for me - and sure to fall down the ranks - lol
Thanks for the quiz Halab  :)
(Merit to come - out at the mo )

Yeah thanks for that.
I made it to 2nd place with exactly 9189 points. Annoying but a few questions were really quite mean :P
I also took the liberty to do some advertising (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5292616.msg56483239#msg56483239) for your quiz.

Was already feeling drowsy, then I saw an exciting PM, wooooohooo. . .

I enjoyed the first and definitely enjoyed this one too. just curious, is hilariousetc and hilariousandco the same person? I had a dilemma about who was the global moderator but luckily picked the right one at the end.
currently at the second place but I'd assume I'd be out of the top 10 or top 20 in just a matter of a couple of hours. I'll be waiting for the next quiz.

Also got a few wrong just for being in a hurry to answer.
Second place after Ddmr² is not bad, so far  ;D

Thanks for the quiz Halab, was really fun !

Nice ... My performance was worse on this occasion (17.060 points, being 19.638 on the prior iteration – down 13,13%). Being a tad too prompt to answer, without reading all the available answers, was behind one of the mistakes I made, and some cartoon film basics have drifted away it seems. A couple of correct answers were fortunate random choices made between a narrowed down set of answers. Meta insights does provide a certain upper-hand.

Just now figured out Nemo's knowledge about bitcointalk is much worse and managed to get only 7K points robably out of top 15 I guess, few questions I tried to click it faster so clicked the wrong one. ::)

What the fuck I came 8th.  :( Choked hard. But fun quiz, always love the shameless plug in between :D

Can we have like a live quiz one day maybe? Whoever joins, joins. Please, please? Or OH OH OH, what about a skribbl.io custom session where we draw bitcointalk related drawings?

Top 10 for the moment :

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Top10.PNG

Without surprise Ddmr² is first (he must have his brain directly connected to the DB). I summon TheBeardedBaby to try to dethrone you :)
The Cryptios team is in ambush. GG.

I tried to do that last time, it was a big failure. At least Kahoot doesn't allow you to do that, there might be a solution, but I didn't know it.

Mmm it can be fun, but I'm no good at drawing :).

The first quizz had 22 questions and the last question was worth 4000 points in fact (another failure from me). You scored 3828 points on this 22nd question. So on equal terms, you did better at this quizz.

OH great! Here, hold my beer. :)

Haha, great quiz... I made so many stupid mistakes.. just crazy. Gavin's name was the first one!
The 3 Global mods one, because I was in hurry clicked the top one instead of the bottom one, rofl. You got me fooled this time Halab! I was in the top 3 most of the time. Good work :)

Halab, great quiz, although I must admit I fell for a trick related to the last name of one of the participants. Now it's my turn to start the second round of the forum history quiz? By the way, if anyone doesn't know, the results of the first round were published here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5301470.msg56029590#msg56029590), (it is not surprising that DdmrDdmr took first place, because judging by the merits sent, he saw the answers of the last New Year's quiz.).

Out of the ones I missed, I'm disappointed I messed up [censored]'s spelling. Was trying to go fast..  :-\
Overall a pretty interesting quiz though! ;D

What was the problem exactly? I have taken part of multiple real-time kahoot quizes and the competition is funnnn.

Well if that is the case I am a well established individual commonly referred to as Vasco Da Gama.

I am On Top 5

https://i.postimg.cc/FKGKc77S/qiuz.png

Ended up 26th, was on 5 streak one time, not due to knowledge but just got lucky  ::)

Choked the Gavin Andresen question, I went with surname that seemed right but was apparently wrong. Should have searched Google  lol

It was indeed fun and I just played one of your quiz (was the first one still available though?) and I think I'll be more ready with the third one, though as you say it will be long before this one. Good to see one of the admins (Cyrus) played too.

I just started and damn, I had so many wrong answers. Some of them didn't give enough time for me to Google ;D

But with the timer and UI, it feels more like a real trivia.

Oh no, it seems the 50 spots have been filled already.  I'm so excited to join but unfortunately, I'm late for this quiz and it might be fun.

It says,
"Uh-oh! This game has already reached the maximum number of players. Ask the host to increase the limit!"

I saw this and I thought I'm a 50th player.

Is there quiz #3?

Yes, it's the same person, but like many I never know which account is GM and which is not :)

---

Were they online quizzes or IRL quizzes ?
Because when I tried the live online quizz, the participants didn't see the questions, they just had the coloured boxes (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5290175.msg55651064#msg55651064) to answer. So it was difficult to do a quizz with these conditions.

---

Yes, I deleted 2 cheaters (if someone can explain the point to me... anyway), so we have reached the maximum quota.
It was quick, but the quizz is now over.


Sorry, but I have already paid (by mistake) the most expensive subscription.

It was not an easy question to begin with, there was only the avatar to help. But the 4 proposals were supposed to help you a little.
The reason I asked this question was that after many months I realised that my brain was reading Andersen and not Andresen. Given the results, I'm not the only one :)

Again, it wasn't very easy. Either you know or you don't (or you are lucky). But with 71% correct answers, you were good.
I erased where it said "I'm Roger Ver", but "bitcoin.com" could have helped.

50% correct answers, not bad. Congratulations to those who did not fall into the Cyrus/Sirus/Sirius trap.
Proof of the answer :
I am disappointed no one answered Miley Cyrus. Since Cyrus changed his nickname to Smiley_Cyrus on an April 1st, I imagine him naked on a wrecking ball :).

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Q4.PNG
It was a very difficult question. I was referring to this old post :
But I still don't know if Theymos really learnt French or if he skipped the courses :)

I was referring to this topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092492.0
The 4th answer was a bit trollish :).

Ok, I agree, that was a very difficult question. Only 23% correct answers.
Here is the answer:

You can call me vicious. You should have known that it required 30 activity and 1 merit to become a Jr Member.

Only 48% correct answers, I expected a little more. During the 20 seconds, you could open any last message and see the number of that message that was over 56 000 000

77% correct answers. Well done, the BEAM/GRIN trap didn't work :)

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Q12.PNG
Thanks to CM for changing the pay rate, it allowed me to find another question for this quizz :)
I am disappointed that no participant in CM's campaign answered D :)

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Q13.PNG
It was not an easy question. Everything was based on the pseudo/custom title/Personal text :

There was a trap with hilariousetc/hilariousandco and also with Mr. Big/Rickbig (his former nickname), but most did not fall into the trap. 
(To my GM/Mods colleagues : sorry about the photo, I am also nerdy and weak :))

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Q15.PNG
I thought it would be an easy question (if you have seen this topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5241347.msg54243783#msg54243783)).

http://precu.free.fr/BCT/Divers/Quizz/2021/Q16.PNG
Not very easy, but for those who follow the Meta section a bit, MindlessElectron (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1136003) is mentioned regularly.
Note that 6 people think that LoyceV is a bot. They may be right, but I can't prove it :)

OK, I'll be honest, this question and this picture are (a little) the reasons for the existence of this 2nd quizz. I wanted to ask this question in the first quizz, but I didn't have the photo. Then I searched for hours and hours, without success. That's why I opened this topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5311187.msg56150080#msg56150080) (and LoyceV found the picture in 5 minutes, maybe it's the proof that he's really a bot... or that I'm not good).

Thank you to all the participants and to those who played the game.

I know Jamyr made a video of his performance, you can post it now, if you want, for those who didn't have a spot to participate.

You actually paid for us to take the quiz?

Well, I have to say thanks alot although I believe there are perhaps free alternatives out there.

And about Theymos question, I thought he was gonna learn Japanese?

This was on the previous quiz .... Halab made a random payment, and judging by the amount it was an annual subscription. If my memory serves me, yesterday I saw names like OgNasty and Lauda on the leaderboard, but now these names are gone, so I will assume that Halab deleted them manually. BTW, I think CT used cheat sheets, "there are some questions related to events so ancient that even Theimos would probably incorrectly answer one or two questions"

Enjoyed that, even though I didn’t rank all that highly. Still really fun though, you should do another one if you ever get the motivation to.

Kahoot is a quiz maker program if it serves me right. I actually paid one from my friend in the past like it's a birthday present for an annual subscription.

Lol I think my standing wasn't that bad considering I'm just block away from loyce. I'm surely preparing on the next quiz and though demanding hope it will not be far away @Halab?

I see. I checked the pricing models and they're pretty reasonable. So my guess is that Halab went for the 20 dollars package since the max was 50 participants.

Standing-wise, that's good enough compared to the rest of us seniors wallowing at the bottom of the leaderboard. https://cdnv1.csgo500.io/emotes/harold.png

Joke's on you, I did terrible O0

Wah,, my name is there. Only 40 people participated in the quizz or its just a leader board?

Since this is the fun quizz why we need to cheat, just check the knowledge by yourself without cheating, if we wanted everyone can answer everything right by using random name first time and actual name second time.

Damn, I couldn't enter in the Top 10. Next time I'll be more prepared and won't go for the first "correct" answer I see, but read them all. I knew almost all the answers except for the one who was the patient 0 and Gavin. If I had the time to read all the answers one by one I could actually score a bit better and enter the top 10, but I guess I'll wait til the next time.. It was a great quiz, Thanks HALAB!

BTW There's less then a month to 1st of April, so be prepared :D

https://youtu.be/rjYKvi2hXdU

according to this post, 50 people participated but maybe the other 8 was disqualified for breaking the rules.

---

some people want fame, recognition and it doesn't no matter tot hem how to get it. I remember someone got a perfect score and disqualified on the first Halab made for cheating.

I just didn't put those who had given up during the game. There may be "cheaters" among those, but you don't need to do a big investigation for that :).
They took a spot from someone who would have liked to join the quizz, but it's just a quizz, it's not going to change anyone's life :).

I will like to add few suggestions, I cheated, I knew Bitcointalk in 2020, how can I pass like that, not possible. I got a friend among those that participated in the quiz and knew all the answers from him while he has answered, and I think this should not be an offence, and fun to see my username removed.

Assuming, if you want 25 questions to be answered, you can have like 50 questions in total in which only 25 will only be distributed randomly for users to answer among the 50 questions.

Also, you can change the position of the answers. Assuming if A is the answer to question 1 for user N, B can be the answer for user W while C the answer for user Z. Which means the same question, the same answer but different positions.

Also, you can randomly also mix the questions by changing the question positions, the number 1 question for user A can be the number 10 question for user B and number 15 question for user C.

With this, it will be very difficult to cheat. Please, remove my username, I am not the first because I cheated.
