Seriously, I could spend hours on here. It's got tons of trivia ranging from all sorts of topics (sports, music, movies, language, history, science, gaming, etc).

Basically, you're given a certain amount of time to list things (all 50 capitals, NFL MVP's, all MLB teams, highest paid athletes, etc) and it actually keeps track of your stats.

I even see one where you actually list the athletes on the covers of Madden. Very cool.

If you decide to do this, you should post what trivia you've done and what you scored.

Out of 84, I only got 45 correct. I failed hard on boxing, golf and hockey.

Did a couple of them, but the site is now experiencing "technical difficulties"

Same here. It might just be the time of night when they shut it down shortly for maintenance. Hopefully it'll be back up soon. I'm itching to play some more.

One of the coolest ones I've seen yet...

Name all the starting QBs for Techmo Super Bowl (NES 1991)

It's much tougher than I thought.

I did that one and completely forgot about Stanford. I sat there for like 5 minutes and just couldn't think of who the last team in the Pac-10 was.

Re: Most Addicting Trivia Site Ever

Stumbled across this site a few weeks ago and it is very addicting. Usually I'll check every day to see what new games were added.

Re: Most Addicting Trivia Site Ever

Listing the gaming systems was by far the hardest...

I knew like 10 systems. It was embarrassing. I had no idea all those other systems even existed.

Re: Most Addicting Trivia Site Ever

Yep, stumbled across this a month or two ago. Doing the countries of the world, capitals, ones like that...drive me nuts.

Re: Most Addicting Trivia Site Ever

Yeah, I saw this a month or two back. I usually check it every couple days if I'm bored just to take the new quizzes.
