FIRST The Trivia Game

Hello all and thanks for checking this out.

Ok, so let me give a back story before I get to the "juicy" stuff. I am in charge of the Team Social at the MARC event this weekend. Well, one idea that I came up with was a simple trivia game where the questions related to FIRST and such.. well I am no FIRST expert and neither is our team. We just don't have that experience yet, incluidng myself the most FIRST experienced member. So I said I would just go ask CD for some trivia. But then I thought about it more, and figured you guys might want to play the game as well!

Hench, after much thought and a little programming i have created FIRST The Trivia Game. http://www.charlieslab.com/trivia (tested/working in Opera 9, IE 6, FF 2)

The basic ideas are:
-- anybody can submit trivia very easily
-- anybody can answer the trivia very easily

Well, I think I accomplished this by eliminating the need for accounts and such. All one has to do is visit the very simple website and they can begin to play or submit. (In the future there will be other features relating to trivia, hence the More section)

Anyway. So it is ready in its most basic form to begin being used. It has only 2 trivia questions, because as I said I do not have a ton of good ideas on that, hence the point of the site.

So check it out if you dont think its totally lame (which I will understand if you do). And submit some trivia about your team that people could answer, or about any of the other fun topics on there.

I am open and kind of requesting suggestions here on how to improve the site and such. I dont expect it to be WIN on the first try. So let me know what I need to do.

What it needs most is:
-- trivia
-- suggestions for improvement

Thanks CD! Hope you at least get a good laugh out of it.
