ah jumping on the trivia crack train

I like the idea, but it seems flawed - at least for me, where if i want to play trivia i'll open an app. Having trivia on my lock screen each day will get old and i'll eventually uninstall - just like those daily word emails or newsletters.

Hey, one of the Streak makers here. I would say we had the idea to do a trivia game before Trivia Crack, but who would believe me?

I agree that 99% of the time instant gratification is what you want from a trivia game, but we dream of many many people playing at once, which would be pretty unique, no?

I mean who's first doesn't matter, before trivia crack there was quiz up, and etc. I only mentioned it cause it seems recently trivia crack as blown up.

> but we dream of many many people playing at once, which would be pretty unique, no?

Isn't this kinda like quiz-up, but instead of matching me with a random stranger it's a group?

Yeah, pretty much, although the group comprises everyone who has the app.
cool idea, but after playing a practice game I have to say too much vibration. I get it's fast paced and you need people to pay attention but vibrating my phone every couple of seconds is super annoying. At least let me turn it off
