It was a quieter week this week with 17 questions asked. Will week 7 see some guest questions?

Week 6 Winner

It was a return to form for Two Shreks and Fiona (@bluelavender, @alexanderkass and @henryclive) (or should the team name now just be Two Shreks?) with a total of 7 correct answers. They hit a good run of 3 correct answers to sneak this week's victory from NO team who were ahead going into what turned out to be the last 3 questions.

We've had fewer questions this week - a combination of some taking slightly longer to answer and also a lack of inspiration on my part.

It's school holiday this week so it might be another slow week (or there'll be loads of questions as I seek distractions from colouring in and Marble Run)!

🏆 Congratulations to Two Shreks and Fiona who will share this week's beneficiary.

Questions 4

🎭 Celebrity Numbers 🔢

In this round, each person can request the unmasking of any number (1 per 30 minutes), which will unmask a square on the image below.

You then need to figure out who the celebrity is!

1 point for each correct answer.

This time, ChatGPT gave me 3 random numbers to get us started!

Be careful though, receiving too many number requests could make things too easy for others to guess!

Updates will be made every 30 minutes until the celebrity is guessed - remember though, an incorrect guess will lead to a 3 hour wait!

Once the image is updated, you can request another number (even if you're on your 3 hour wait)!

Last update: 8pm (UK Time)
Next unveiling: 8:30pm (UK Time) - Please select your number before then.

Didn’t you see the current Wördel? Ups, NO excuses… 😉

Oh no! How did that slip past me? No point of listing it now because I took the remaining word 😉

 2 days ago 

Yes, great, welcome and good luck!

It doesn't matter that "we" aren't on the list. I'm an advocate of people who are really interested finding what interests them. They just have to pay close attention to what's happening (feeds, announcements...). I was just a little surprised.

The perfect moment to express my admiration for you: Wow (I watched "created" from #contest about two days for fun...)! How do you keep track of so much crap? Again: Wow!

How do you keep track of so much crap? 😂

I rely on lots of options! The fact that you watched for two days is awesome because I’ve been at it for 1349 days (and counting!) 🙈

I’m totally with you on following genuine interests 🥂

Question 2

🕒 Sequences 🕕

Please identify the next item in the sequence;

B -- C -- N -- O -- ?



Note: 1/2 point for getting the correct item, 1/2 point for the explanation

 3 days ago 

F

F for Flourine.
Based on the atomic numbers of Baron, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen.

 3 days ago 

✅ Correct again! Perhaps a bit easy after the Chemistry question 😉

 3 days ago 

Yes, the chemistry question before that (for which you didn't necessarily have to be an English chemist but rather a master of wordplay...) was my hint. I actually asked about the elements behind these letters. I quickly saw that the elements are next to each other in the periodic table...

 3 days ago 

Boron 5, Carbon 6, Nitrogen 7, Oxygen 8, Fluor 9

 3 days ago 

Das hört sich richtig an.
Du legst jetzt aber kräftig vor... :-)

A trip to the beach and then the park! The-little-gorillas are now watching Paw Patrol Mighty Pups so I have some time to think of another question 🥳

Paw Patrol Mighty Pups

Ask questions about it and I have no chance...
Ha, but Möcki and Hira are parents, they could answer. After all, what are team partners for?

I obviously misunderstood the question - so please don't think I don't read your articles...

I wondered if you'd looked at my interface. But that has something different too!

👎 moecki is correct with #games

The answer was in my latest dev update where I've fixed the /tags page: https://steemitdev.com/tags

Question 5 - Ask a Friend

⚽ Sports 🏏

Ask a Friend

In this round, you cannot directly answer the question. you must tag any user who is not on your team (you can tag users from opposing teams). If the tagged user answers correctly, their inviter scores a point for their team.

Votes will be given to both the inviter and the friend who provides the correct answer.

Note: If you answer correctly on behalf of an opposing team, only the opposing team will score a point.

Example: chriddi invites henryclive to answer. henryclive answers correctly. Both chriddi and henryclive receive a vote. However, only chriddi’s team (NO team) scores a point.

❓ The Question ❓

Only one player scored a hat-trick in the English Premier Leauge at the weekend (15th/16th Feb). Not including this one, how many Premier League hat-tricks have been scored by players from the same country?

If you mean the country the footballer who scored a hat-trick you mentioned is from, then maybe there were 4 hat-tricks from that country, not including this one.

 2 days ago 

Okay, this way!
Yes, that is the answer I would have answered, too... 😉
Guessing together is okay, but we won't sing together, will we?... 🤪

If this is the correct answer, then I am glad I gave it to you 😉

 2 days ago 

Great!
My plan worked different but it worked... 😁

Let's wait for the Quiz Master's verdict, I'm still not sure if this is the correct answer.

 2 days ago 

Well, we know the country and we counted the hat-tricks.
He asked about the number of hat tricks, not the number of players. Then, well then... Let's irritate the opponents a little more... 😂

 2 days ago 

✅ That is the correct answer.

@chriddi (NO team) win a point.

What if the invitee deliberately doesn't answer correctly or answer at all?

 2 days ago 

Exactly 😉

After 3 hours, you can nominate somebody else.

You are naughty.

 2 days ago 

This is now a very stupid instruction for me. For me as a notorious Mention denier. In fact, I had just decided to mute all posts with unnecessary mentions (i.e. the person addressed is not paying enough attention...) as a NO-control. I think I'll stick to this plan - after all, I'm co-inventor and administrator of this community... 😎

Well, I'll deal with the question first. When I have the solution, I'll already know how to ‘get round’ your instruction. Trust me everyone, the idea is great... 😁

Oh, you don't have to worry. Nobody has been attentive enough to know that I know the answer. At least nobody has invited me yet. Or they are sneaky-pants because they don't want No Team to get the point... 🫣
You've thought that out really well... 😘
And now let me evaluate my Wördel - I want to go out again, the sun is shining!

 2 days ago 

Ah, but if somebody invites you and you answer correctly, they get the point and not you. It's the Inviter who gets the point!

 2 days ago 

I understand that. I just wanted to be very polite...
Nobody should say that the NO team has been arrogant and selfish since its rocket-like success... 😎

 2 days ago (edited)

Dear fellow players,
I have done some research and I think I KNOW the answer.
You can ask me if you want No team to get another point... 😁

Edit
Ah, somebody is online. What do you think, @alexanderkass, do you want me to forget that I hate mentions?

I am ready to try, but unsure of the answer

Hi @pennsif, I invite you to answer this question 😀

 3 days ago 

Question 1

🧑‍🔬 Chemistry 🧪

What element do you get if you combine Iridium, Oxygen and Nitrogen?

Note: This question probably only works in English

 3 days ago 

IRON… 😎

✅ 💪

Question 6

🪙 Steemit 🪙

A German user just got his dad to spend €400 on a load of DVDs. What genre does Wikipedia say that this series is?

Adventure
Fantasy
Romance

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuyasha

 2 days ago 

✅ It doesn't look like my cup of tea but I could be convinced. Not at €50 per DVD though.

€50 per DVD is a steep ask! No wonder his GF is so mad 💔

Anyway the question would have been a piece of cake for @moecki! Glad I could put a hurdle for No team winning streak 😈

 2 days ago 

As I wrote the question, I thought that it didn't feel very fair! So I was pleased that somebody who hadn't already commented (on the original post) snuck in for the point!

 2 days ago (edited)

Definitely, the time was on your side today... 😀

Question 7

⚽ Sports 🏏

Tomorrow sees the start of the ICC Champions Trophy and one Steemit user is running a Fantasy Cricket contest for the tournament.

If a player scores 122 runs (6 x 4s and 2 x 6s), takes 2 catches and 3 wickets (no maidens nor 20+ run overs), how many Fantasy Points will they score?

 2 days ago 

215 points

Question 8

⚽ Sports 🏏

Continuing with the ICC Champions Trophy, after just 2 balls, @the-gorilla was at a serious disadvantage. Why?

The captain of the team got injured

 14 hours ago 

✅ Absolutely. 2 balls!!

Hopefully he'll be ok to bat - although I don't know how the rules work in this regard. Are you allowed to avoid fielding and then come in to bat? Possibly not.

Question 9

🧐 Odd One Out 🚫

From the 4 images below, which is the odd one out and why.

1 point for identifying the correct image and 1 point for the explanation.

I've been full on with Steem Atlas this past week so couldn't keep up with the quizzes but happy (and surprised) to be hanging on to second place.

 4 days ago 

That's understandable, is it going well?

There were a few questions that I thought "pennsif will get this"!

Yes it is going very well thanks. Better than expected.

Many people posting, and many people giving great ideas for further developments.

Rather stretching our resources at the moment but it will be great if we can develop it enough to take to the outside world and attract new people to Steem.

 3 days ago 

Yes it is going very well thanks. Better than expected.

I'm pleased to hear it. It's a great site so deserves to do well!

I definitely need to add my Travel posts to it. I just need a block of time without distractions to get it done!

I wonder what the hook to the outside world is...

I have friends who love travelling and they keep a map of the world on display with pins in all of the places they've visited. Perhaps something along these lines could work really well, where each user can log their travels and be able to filter the map just their pins / places they've visited?

These logs are stored on the Blockchain and the pin becomes more than just a point and a memory - it becomes a story.

I can think of a few people that this would appeal to.

I will look forward to your travel posts. You could do posts for all the football grounds you have visited as well...

Finding the right hook for the outside world will be key.

I think the 'personal' nature of the information on the site sets it apart from the more normal tourism / TripAdvisor type content.

There is still much to be explored and much to be nurtured on the site.

Steem does present a unique opportunity for (guided) content creation - I am not sure there are many other sites that can offer up anything similar.

For the existing content creators on Steem, Steem Atlas presents an ideal opportunity to create 'content with purpose' - something lacking for much of the platform's output.


One new feature that we are just debugging at the moment is the search by author - this will display all the posts from an individual user. This can be a useful stepping stone to more elaborate curated outputs.

I think the 'personal' nature of the information on the site sets it apart from the more normal tourism / TripAdvisor type content.

I agree. Whilst I was commenting, I was trying to think "What would appeal to the people I know". My thoughts went to TripAdvisor but would Steem Atlas benefit from lots of short-form reviews? In my opinion, no.

That's when I thought about what would appeal to some of my more "traveller" friends that I've got and the "pins in maps" feels like the perfect fit. And it sound like the feature that you're currently testing aligns with this nicely.

For the existing content creators on Steem, Steem Atlas presents an ideal opportunity to create 'content with purpose' - something lacking for much of the platform's output.

Well.. the current purpose of most activity is sadly all too obvious. It just doesn't align with what we'd like Steemit to be!


That's a good idea with my Away Days posts. I'll update a few now and see if I'm successful.

I've added a pin to this post.

IGNORE: How will I know if I've done it correctly? I used my post title for the pin name.

Ah, beautiful...
