EVIL~! alkeiper Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Name the MLB Hall of Fame I got 172/232. Post results or other fun quizzes. Great time killer.
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I did it a while ago and I did bad on it. I think I got a quarter of them right.
geniusMoment Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 That's what the whole site is, I tried the Seinfeld one but didn't remember his dentists name For the hall, the negro league players killed me
MFer Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah, I didn't do well on the baseball HOF one either. I did get 115/120 FBS nicknames correct though (Arkansas St., Florida Intl., Louisiana Tech, Louisiana-Monroe, and UAB were the ones I missed). I've done well on some others but they were probably the type that were easy for everyone so I won't bother listing them. EDIT: Tried the FCS one and got 28/125 (not that I expected to do well). I'm sure Harley Quinn would get a perfect score though lol.

Mike wanna be Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah, I didn't do well on the baseball HOF one either.

I'm sure Harley Quinn would get a perfect score though lol. Same score on FBS with 5:30 remaining. Failed on Arkansas State, Ball State, Southern Miss, Toledo & NMSU. Arkansas State is bullshit, they were the Indians up until Fall 2008. The other 4 I have no excuse beyond not playing NCAA 09 so it's been 2 years since I've seen most of those teams.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I got 27 of 30 of the all time NFL passing leaders.
CanadianChris Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I do this every day. Great time waster. I'll have to go back and post some of the better ones. I think I aced the RBs over 10K yards quiz. Off topic: Countries of the World and Periodic Table are fun non-sports ones.
HarleyQuinn Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I'm dying on the HOF in part because of the Negro Leaguers but also because I've totally blanked on almost any and all pitchers... bah. Most annoying was knowing I knew the names but couldn't recall them for the life of me: 58/232 I suck with team nicknames in general and just remember the location. FBS Nicknames: 89/120 FCS Nicknames: 28/125 - I missed Southern Illinois b/c I couldn't spell the nickname right
AboveAverage484 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I got 19/20 on NBA all-time scorers and like 14/20 on assists. I think I got all of the 20 highest scoring games, but those are easier since one answer can count more than once (e.g. Chamberlain had multiple appearances.)
CanadianGuitarist Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 I do this every day. Great time waster. I'll have to go back and post some of the better ones. I think I aced the RBs over 10K yards quiz. Off topic: Countries of the World and Periodic Table are fun non-sports ones. My Achille's heel in any trivia medium has always been the Elements. This might help. Country results forthcoming. What score did you hit in Geo Challenge, by the way?
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 10 Most Valuable Franchises in Each Sport: 32/40 Name the athletes from their nicknames: 44/84 (Boxing and golf destroyed me) These ones tend to kill me because I'll know some of the answers, but don't know the spelling of their names. Like "Olajuwon" and however the hell you spell out Coach K's full name, for example.
phoenixrising Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 World Series winners Got all 104 with 8:55 remaining (out of 15 minutes). I was able to get all the NL MVP's, and missed one AL MVP...Charlie Gehringer...can't believe that I missed him.
CanadianGuitarist Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 I got 52 of the nicknames - golf was the only sport where I got each one right. After doing seven or eight trying to get one perfect, I'm here to post Masters Tournament winners - 63/72 Incredibly addictive, this site.
HarleyQuinn Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 I got 64/84 on the nicknames (Could picture most of the golfers but not name them). I also got 28/40 on the most valuable franchises.
Brett Favre Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 21/25 on NBA All-Time Shot Blocking Leaders: http://www.sporcle.com/games/nballtimeblock.php
AboveAverage484 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 21/25 on NBA All-Time Shot Blocking Leaders: http://www.sporcle.com/games/nballtimeblock.php I got the same, I actually got lucky and got Johnson and Williams just guessing common NBA names. I missed Larry Nance, Ratliff(!), Gilmore (d'oh) and Divac.
Brett Favre Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah went I got Johnson I was thinking Ervin Johnson and I just randomly typed Williams for another Williams. Missed: I missed Nance, McHale, Bradley, and Rollins.
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 World Series winners Got all 104 with 8:55 remaining (out of 15 minutes). I was able to get all the NL MVP's, and missed one AL MVP...Charlie Gehringer...can't believe that I missed him. I got 89 out of the 104, but got every single one correct from 1947-2008.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 57/84 on the Nicknames 36/59 on NBA ROTY (I got from 1988-1989 to now right) 39/51 on NFL MVP's (I got from 1983 to now right)
bob_barron Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 World Series winners Got all 104 with 8:55 remaining (out of 15 minutes). I was able to get all the NL MVP's, and missed one AL MVP...Charlie Gehringer...can't believe that I missed him. 3:48 remaining. Them telling you the league made it much easier
alfdogg Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 I just did the Larry Brown one. I guessed all of them but the first team.
alfdogg Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Got 23/26 6MOTY winners. Missed on Roy Tarpley, Danny Manning, and Darrell Armstrong.
AboveAverage484 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Posted March 11, 2009 Whoops, sorry, I just spoiler tagged my stuff. Team's all-time leading scorers was fun. I got 25/30, IIRC.
