I don't know. I'm betting it's not sunshine and unicorns. You want to test for us? ;)

Bacon, I'm pretty sure you applied during the last round of staff hiring a few -months- ago. Remember, you posted your application here for us to see and we all questioned your age about being able to apply?

As Ty said, not deleting something when you're asking to do it can lead in drastic consequences. Freezing being one of them.

When a UA or AA, or Keith tells you to do something, do it. Don't try to play smartest, in the end, we always catch people. :)

So who do we smail nowadays when we have a question about the format of a trivia answer? Carol, who put up the current question? Someone else?

Ty, you'd need to make a ticket, and it would be assigned to the appropriate person :)

All righty, I'll do that. Normally I might just wait a bit to see if the trivia gets edited, but I'm supposed to be leaving for the weekend pretty soon here!

I was wondering that too. Thanks Rah.

Edit: I guess I've gotten spoiled by getting nearly instant answers to my tickets in the past. Now I'm starting to wonder if I should just answer since some have ended quickly lately.

Edit: And I was afraid the trivia would end and answered last night and got a reply to my ticket this morning that I probably answered wrong =/

Damn. I don't even know what answer you put and I think I just made the same "mistake." I really wish they'd add an answer format note by default.

Your answer a list for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Mookie and 21sP
Huh? When I asked for clarification via the ticket center, I got:
Hello there! The trivia does not tell us to add an article, so I would not put an article in the answer.
So if I had been patient and followed that advice, I would have been wrong?

Oh wait, I went back and looked at the answer on the past trivias page and it says: Answer(s): list, a list

Why have they never done this before? I can't tell you how many trivias I've gotten wrong due to article or other similar issues.
