Home of Rhett & Link fans - the Mythical Beasts!
**UPDATE** You all really came through by commenting with some really great questions. Thanks so much for being your mythical best.
**UPDATE** Let's extend the deadline to this Friday night. THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR BEASTLY CONTRIBUTIONS! HAVE FUN!! **
Hey Mythical Beasts!
We'd like your help in creating questions for a brand new trivia pack for our Trivy App. Back in July, you all answered our call and developed some fantastic questions for our first Trivy pack, which dedicated to general knowledge related to us and the content we've created. Will you help us again? I smell another fun Kommunity Building Exercise :)
Our idea for this brand new Trivy Pack is to make it all about GMM episode trivia—so, interesting information/facts presented in GMM. The pack will be a fun "test your knowledge" to see how well Mythical Beasts were paying attention to the information we presented. We’re thinking we’ll probably focus on Season 7 and 8; and we’ll need at least 250 questions…
Sidenote: We are also working up an digital prize that is unlocked when players complete the Trivy pack. So that should be fun! Shhhh it's a secret.
So, in the comments on this thread, please write your suggested trivia questions (sourced from GMM Seasons 7 and 8). Focus on memorable/interesting tidbits. If possible, include not only the correct answer, but also 3 other false answers for the multiple choices. *Note* Each multiple choice answer should be short so that it fits within the app!
DEADLINE: Unfortunately, we're under a tight deadline...please submit your ideas by next Wednesday night, FEB 10th.
The Kmods will be helping us gather and format your questions so that we can load the ones we select into the app.
Thanks so much- you are truly being your mythical best!
Most of all - have fun with it! - R&L
