Great website for wasting time
 
Sporcle.com -There are a bunch of trivia games that time you to see how many presidents you can name, how many states, capitols, etc.

I tried the url you provided and all I got were websearch results.

LucyKKG 03-18-2009 11:16 PM

It's sporcle.com, I think.

tri deezy 03-18-2009 11:19 PM

Oops. Yes, it's sporcle, not sprocle. I just named all 18 Duggar kids in 1 minute and 17 seconds. Hahaha

That's impressive! I guess it's a little bit easier cause they all start with J but...still!

I couldn't remember all of the Gosselin kids' names the other day, and it was driving me nuts! You know when you can't think of something and it just bugs you? Yeah, like that.

I love this website! Just don't get caught on it at work. ;)

I tried to do countries of europe and it wouldn't let me put in England (or Britain or Great Britain). WTH? :confused:

A pox on you, tri deezy for telling me about this site! ;)

BF and I were dueling it out last night until midnight! I fared better on US Capitals than he did, and naturally he did better on all things sports.

LOVE the site... thanks for sharing!

Thetagirl218 03-19-2009 08:57 PM

I love this!!!! I teach Geography and I found the bordering countries one hard without being able to see a map!

tri deezy 05-30-2009 10:03 PM

YAY!! It's about time they made this quiz: http://www.sporcle.com/games/sororities.php

Got 'em all:)

Omg finally! I seriously sit in class and list all of them in ABG order as quickly as I can. I'm not used to typing it, so that was kinda weird. I got them all in 1 min 45 seconds. That seems slow...I'll try again later!

ETA: A few commentors on the bottom suggest doing fraternities. Yeah but they have 69 groups!

ETA again: 1 min 24 sec this time! Haha I'm such a loser.

I got them all but lost lots of time b/c I couldn't remember the last one. I finally got it (Pi Beta Phi) with 2:33 to go. I'm going to try again & beat that ridiculous time.

lovespink88 05-30-2009 10:49 PM

Aw, I got 1 minute and 57 seconds

Gusteau 05-31-2009 07:20 AM

My friend sent me this website with the NPC Quiz ("you're a greek nerd, you'll like this quiz") I was so mad that I couldn't remember Kappa Alpha Theta or Theta Phi Alpha (sorry ladies!) I would be down from the 69 fraternity NIC quiz though!

tri deezy 05-31-2009 01:28 PM

I would do TERRIBLY with an NIC quiz. There are just too many of them!

I could probably get 25-30 but after that, I'd just start making stuff up.

Waste not ~
 
Cool site. Plenty of ways to waste time, games and whatever, but it pays

They made a fraternity version of the quiz:

http://www.sporcle.com/games/BigRed/fraternity

It's far from complete (I don't think the sporcle people have approved it yet), for example they forgot Beta Theta Pi. I think I typed Beta in about three times before I gave up on it being there. I got about 25, and then I started cheating :o
