A new trivia question has been added!




NOTE: THIS PRIZE WILL BE RE-USED NEXT TIME; DUE TO A MISSED LETTER MISSPELLING IN THE ANSWER, THERE WERE NO WINNERS.

1/3-1/4th of the trivias...? o.O... this is only the second one I can think of. Poor crazy people. eats ice cream calmly
I am not attempting to suck up in any way, this is simply what I think about this:<br />
Debi, you work a fun feature to make the site more entertaining, so don't take offense by reactions to little slip-ups like this if you can help it. (:
I never even saw a good percentage of the comments on this. As those who actually know me are aware, I recently had an incident occur. I generally wear prescription glasses, which I need, due to anesthetic during a surgical procedure having badly adversely affected my eyesight. However, they were recently lost at Wal-Mart, and, whoever found them evidently decided to keep them, for unknown reasons, as, as I said, they are prescription. I did check twice a week for a month, thinking that perhaps they had been picked up by a child, or someone from out of town, and it might take awhile for them to be returned. But they never were. My eye doctor is on vacation most of this month, and is booked solid for the rest of it, so I'm going in January to get new ones. So it was either cancel the Trivia for the entire duration, or muddle through half-blind. Since people do need the Trivias for Blue Building access, I chose the latter option, even though everything is basically extremely blurred for me. (Thank you so much to the several comedic friends of mine who sent me various Subetiam eyeglasses XD). In this particular case, the i happened to be next to an l, which made it extremely difficult for me to catch that it was missing. There is no automated spell check program for Staff to use on the site. I do find it interesting, and a bit disheartening, to see that people had evidently said that they'd rather see me actually fired over a simple typo, and therefore have no Trivias anymore at all, since no one else on Staff will touch adding them, exactly because of reactions (and overreactions, in some instances), such as were evidently expressed here, which, as I said, I never even saw. shakes head People also jumped the gun and assumed what they thought I meant by re-use... which, as everyone will soon see, was actually a far more literal usage of the term than people seem to have been anticipating... Also, Klaatu, whose comment I did happen to glance at, no, there absolutely have NOT been mistakes on 1/4-1/3 of the Trivias; that's just absolutely ludicrous. There have been several for which people have insisted that they're incorrect answers are correct, but that's not the same thing. Also, while I do really appreciate the overzealous defense put up by some on my behalf, I did miss the misspelling myself, I never said that I didn't; I just didn't happen to catch it, which, is my fault, yes, which I had never at any time, in anyway, denied. However, in my entire time adding Trivias, this is only the second answer that I've actually misspelled. So, once again, apologies; I'm subject to human error... as much as I might like to believe otherwise... XD

<br />
I totally agree, they obviously need to take a break from the trivia, because some people are getting way too personal over this. So what if nobody didn't get the prize because of an error made somewhere or by someone? It is NOT going to be the end of the world! I don't know why some of you behave that it is going to be that way. <br />
<br />
Besides, no one paid any money real or otherwise to play the trivia, so if Keith and staff want to get rid of it , then to hell with it then. No lives lost, no money lost. That means for those of you who love to complain about how much money is donated to the site and the trivia is wrong or unfair and how Debi does or doesn't do this, just stop it. It's just ridiculous.
I really think the "get over it" comments need to go. They are entirely unhelpful and very rude - you guys sound just as bad as the people you are reprimanding. I also think the "Debi needs to be fired" comments were completely over the top. I am sure Debi's tries very hard to make this activity enjoyable for us. A day like this must spoil it for her, too. <br /><br />A mistake was made and Debi probably feels pretty darned lousy about it. Who needs this kind of added stress?<br />I am a stickler for spelling, but I have often have watched my fingers type faster than my brain can keep up. (Thank goodness for edit buttons!) I can imagine quite easily how a mistake like this can happen. I hope Debi isn't too flustered by all of this. It will blow over soon. It always does.
Calm down guys, it's pixels. Debi is a human who does amazing work on trivias and made 1 mistake. So what? Haven't you ever made any mistakes? the prize is being reused anyway. what more can you ask for?
Hahahah.<br />
<br />
Seriously, get over yourselves. She's reusing the prize, what more could you possibely want? It wasn't a hard trivia that you slaved over for hours, and I'm sure the next one will be EVEN EASIER.<br />
<br />
GET OVER IT.
"I won it fair and square" So? Your point?<br />
<br />
No one HAS to do anything around here, and yet most of the comments on here are people acting like spoiled children. I vote we cancel trivia for a while, I bet Debilee would love a break from morons being greedy over a few pixels. Thank you so much to a few of you for reminding me yet again why I hate people- People are Greedy, and mean.<br />
<br />
Fire her over a typo? Did your mother drop you on your head? Seriously. Debi, you're human. And I say delete the item and really give the children something to whine about <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Heh, you would think with Neopets being such a large business, they'd be more efficient, but about half the site is outdated art. <br />
<br />
Anywho, though, I agree. I wish people would just get a little more of a sense of humor, and less of a lynch mob attitude.<br />
<br />
Which, I realize, sounds really bad from me after saying negative things about Neopets. ^^;;
User not found:
Thanks ChaosHeart, I love my avvie to. ^-^ and i agree with you.
User not found:
I agree with you RaVel, about that the users are more worried about misspellings and stuff. But that doesn't mean like people are being.<br />
<br />
And sorry about the Neopets thing, I just assumed that since they were a big company that they had things more professional. (Not saying subeta isn't , just Subeta isn't a HUGE company and all)<br />
<br />
Still though-Debi is still getting a lot of unneeded lip about this. If people complain over something like this she might not work here(weather it's from people complaining and she just leaves or from people complaining about her and higher people up fire her) any more. It's not right to get so angry to a person over something like this.
Well, it doesn't matter if I didn't get this one right. XD It's just a trivia prize, and if I don't get it, big whoop. It doesn't matter too much, it's just another item for me to toss in my gallery. total pack rat<br />
<br />
At least, that's my opinion on it.<br />
<br />
Oh, and ForgotttenMomments, your avatar = utter awesomeness.
Actually, on Neopets, there's a LOT of misspellings, if you travel around the site for some time, you'll notice. <br />
<br />
What I love about Subeta, though, is usually it's so relaxed and good-humored (I mean, look at most of the item descriptions!). Please don't tell me it's going to be the users, and not the staff, that are going to nit pick over everything and change that...
User not found:
Why is everyone so upset about a trivia question? it's actually stupid to be worked up over this. Is it gonna matter a few days from now? Well to me it's not, she said that the item was gonna come around again, so just wait. Subeta is awsome site, and you all are just getting worked up over a trivia question. I'm sure that all of the people that are complaining still have fun on this site than neopets. Neopets you don't find any miss spelling or stuff like that. But do you have as much fun, no. So just face that fact that it was a mistake. Get over it.

Oh well. Just a spelling mistake. -runs off to do current trivia-
frankly with all the moaning/ really awesome cool fun person ing I would totally not re-issue the prize but can it all together. that would teach you grip asses a lesson
Christ, guys, it's a trivia.<br />
There's been a bunch, and there should be a bunch more. If everyone complains, yells at Debilee, and tosses out various insults, the staff could very easily stop producing trivias, which is something I'm sure very few people want.<br />
<br />
Get over it.

I'm not too mad, I was about to misspell my answer anyway.
i'm not upset about it. it's a spelling error. anyone who's going to complain shouldn't be, to me. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
SOWAIT... If we're NOT going "ong debi sux"... we're asslicking? <br />

Nobody can win -

Woah woah woah....!! Someone suggested FIRING?!! That's just sad. Seriously. It's a group of pixles that make an image. You'll survive without it.... I personally, had a right good chuckle about this whole series of events. I command all of you that are upset by this to go get some ice cream, calm down, and laugh. LAUGH CURSE YOU!!!!
I don't care about the spelling mistake, I just want the prize that I got for putting the right answer. I don't think it's fair to make another trivia question and have the prize from the past trivia on it that I tried to win. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> It's just not right. That's why I suggested putting it up as a Free Gift. I won that prize fair and square.

Heh, might as well get used to it, Nestly. I've found that the only posts that get attention on this site are the ones that get construed as direct attacks (correctly or not) and the ones that brown-nose. The neutral and logical in-between comments are just filler for all the drama. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /><br />
<br />
As for the issue at hand, I'm reminded of a saying I often heard when I was younger: Let he who has never sinned cast the first stone.

its all good everyone makes mistakes. i just hope when they reuse the gift its a easy one i really wanted that.
Awww, vengeful - and here I thought it was a brief bit of hilarity -- repeating it 10 more times for emphasis. And in case people missed reading it the first, second, or third time. Etc. I LOL'ed.
While I was really angry and peeved about it as well, some people really need to take some Anger Management classes here and get off their high horse. eyes Luka_Pooka
Aw, darned be all misspellings. But oh well, it happens to all of us. hugs DebiLee<br />

Jesus people.
oops, sorry for all the post. i was experiencing some major lag. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_blush.gif" border="0" />
<strong>Nestly:</strong> I like how everyone just decides to ignore my main points and still act like 'omg shut up you're all just mean! hugs staff', no offense. XD<br />
<br />
I'm not picking sides. I'm trying to make a point of correcting mistakes, but I'm not gonna smother the people who make those mistakes with love and sympathy either. <br />
<br />
Some people are being a bit harsh though. x3 But whatever. There's always gonna be people acting like that.
Oh goodness me! Everyone please take deep breaths and slurp your chocolate eggnogs. They do say chocolate makes you feel happy!<br />

And Debi probably needs to drink 3 or more after reading the comments, just for comfort.<br />

Please be realistic with your criticism. Yes, it is a professionally run site. At the same time, it is STILL a site run professionally ... by humans. Humans make mistakes. No matter WHAT "professional" site/business/whatever you work for or come in contact with, you WILL find mistakes like that if you watch long enough.<br />
<br />
It was a typo. They happen. Be kind, and move on with life.
Omgosh people, no other site does 1/4 of the awesome things this site does for us and I can't believe the mean/rude/whining comments over a simple spelling mistake.<br />
If it was your feet in those shoes i'm sure you would not like hearing such comments.<br />
The staff on this site work hard trying to keep everyone happy. Give them a break already!!!
HOLY.<br />
Everyone should just shut UP.<br />
Something like ''applances'' must be a typo. I have never seen anyone misspell ''appliances'' by omitting the I, they usually forget one of the P's or something.<br />
Chill out!<br />
<br />
Also...<br />
I'm amazed at the hypocrisy here. Something is wrong with you if you never make mistakes. Do we expect people to be perfect just because they work for a website?<br />
<br />
It's likely not even Debi's fault, don't blame it on her. She doesn't deserve it.<br />
<br />
And, for the record, people aren't expected to pay real money for the site. The cash shop is there for people who wish to support the site as well as get some cool items.<br />
<br />
Why are we getting all pissed over some text and a mess of pixels?
"Sucking up"? Is that what they call being nice these days? lol 8D
<strong>Nestly:</strong> There's a difference between rude and constructive. And there's also a difference between fault and accidental. I don't know who exactly checks the Trivia, or if it even IS checked, but the fact is that it should be, and these situations are ridiculous for such a popular, 'professionally' run site. It's not good just to moan about the admins being lazy or stupid. That's not what I'm saying. <br />
Of COURSE people make mistakes. And that's fine, if you LEARN from them. Obviously this Trivia mishap is happening over and over again. <br />
<br />
And sucking up to the staff members and yelling at the people who are complaining doesn't help either. They're silly internet pixels on a petsite, big whoop right? That's not the point. <br />
The silliest thing is that a simple Trivia game is making so many silly mistakes. Try to be more careful is the point I'm trying to get across. <br />
<br />
I'm sure Debilee and all the other staff are hard working and trying to improve this. 8D
Wow, I just read some of the other comments and I can't believe how harsh some of them are. finds DebiLee wherever she is and hugs her
I was wondering why it said my answer of Home Appliances was not correct since I copied and pasted it so I wouldn't get it wrong. Now I know why it said I got it wrong.
well, that's true. She would know the answers on the ones that she comes up with. But I had heard that if it was a user-suggested trivia she couldn't see the answer. And I didn't realize that she had come up with this question.<br />
<br />
No matter, I try and guess every trivia, it's all fun. I wasn't trying to complain, it was just a suggestion I thought of.<br />
<br />
I'm not one to point fingers because if I were in charge, I'd probably make a typo or two, too. I even worry about typos when answering the questions which is why I always copy and paste my answers when I submit them. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Event!<br />
Your answer candy shack for the trivia was correct! Youve been given an Gigantic Candy Cane and 111sP<br />
<br />
Was that a different trivia then the home appliance one then? o_o<br />
<br />
Good luck to people on this trivia. (:

It seems like the users that use the cash shop are the ones that are complaining the most and that they expect everything to be perfect because they pay for things on the site.<br />
<br />
Technically, its your judgment as to whether or not support the site even if the grammar and spelling is not that great sometimes. If in fact you know it's not great with grammar and spelling, then why give them your hard earned real life money.<br />
<br />
I'm not saying you shouldn't support the site. But everyone has their own idea of what their money goes towards. They would like Subeta to run faster and be able to hold many users online at one time.<br />
<br />
In my opinion, people that support the site don't really do it for grammar and spelling purposes, they do it to have fun here.
Debi is on subeta's timezone. Given the time trivia came out, I'd excuse her for a few mistakes and spelling errors. She's reusing the item and I'm pretty sure she will make the question fairly easy too (like most of the other questions this month). Nobody's punished! xD Let's just wait for the next one? c:<br />
<br />
+hugs debi+
if subeta intends to be a professionally-run website who expects users to be willing to pay real money into the site.. i certainly do expect the site to use proper grammar and spelling. ESPECIALLY since aspects of the site are heavily reliant on them.. i.e. the trivia. not calling for any firings or resignations.. but for the love of god, please check these things beforehand. how many times have we had to deal with this already?
User not found:
Aww. I'm so sad--I got that one right (technically), too. XD First trivia I tried after a long break... oh well. I'm pretty sure I've got this one. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
User not found:
Lynelle, I'm not sure if you are correct or not. I do know that the Trivia was from Debi, not suggested by another player. <br />
<br />
It's possible that Debi might have put a hundred or more trivia questions into a bank database and just randomly choose one from there. Kind of like what college professors do with tests from a particular book. They do not know what questions are exactly on the test, the bank pulls random questions for them.<br />
<br />
Or maybe it was possible that Debi just wasn't feeling good, in a hurry, or something. We are human, not machines.
heh.. i put bits and bytes too, and then i submitted it and went to home appliances and was like..darn im so stupid. <br />
secondly, im glad the prize is being reused, it gives people a chance to get the prize if they didn't and it shows that the staffers care about the people enough to admit their mistake and then have people respect them for trying to help the problem.<br />
thirdly, dont complain,, one day it may happen to you. then what would you do??
User not found:
As much as I would like to complain about the typo's found on the site as well as any other site I have ever visited. It is not a means to get rid of someone.<br />
<br />
If all the staff of Subeta would pull together and double check everyone's work before hand, things would run much smoothly around here. It is not just Debi's fault, it is all of the Subeta staff's fault for not catching these things earlier. So, does that mean all of Subeta's staff should be fired? I would hope not.<br />
<br />
Next, you are going to see players complaining about proper grammar on the site.
From what I understand, Debilee doesn't see the answers suggested. It was designed that way so that she could also play the trivia. At least that is what i was told, if I'm wrong I'm sorry.<br />
<br />
But i know she plays because she is #1 on the high score list for trivia.<br />
<br />
This has happened several times this year. It happened with a number trivia, it happened with the spelling of a name, it happened with Louis L'amour, and it seems like there are a few other times it's happened but I can't recall them off the top of my head.<br />
<br />
It is frustrating to get it right, not get the prize, and then not be able to find the answer to the trivia the next time that particular prize is offered. Especially if it's an item you really want.<br />
<br />
I think the problem lies in the fact that she can't see the answers, so therefore was unaware of the spelling error. Maybe the way trivia is done could be changed in that whoever hosts trivia, doesn't play and they are allowed to see the answers. That way there won't be so many issues like this.<br />
<br />
Or maybe that wouldn't be good because if someone saw the answer and they weren't completely honest, they might pass it around the net. I really don't know what the best solution is, but that was a suggestion I thought of.
Wow, I've read a lot of rude comments, but Luka_Pooka takes the cake. First off, it wasn't DebiLee's fault, and second, it was a tiny mistake. The prize is being used again; that's happened before. Typos are pretty dern common on the internet, kay? It's no reason to insist on getting rid of DebiLee. You're being a jerk and it's really rude. You should consider apologizing.

Some of you people need to mellow out. This is a game site not Real Life. DebiLee has a lot more to do than keep up with the trivia. The Holidays are hectic both on Subeta and in Mundania ... especially for Adults so she is getting a double dose of hectic. And by the way I am sure none of the UAs could possibly get paid enough to put up with all the complainers around here.

People are referring to a previous trivia when they mention 'artic frost.' And for the record, it WAS misspelled on the site until after that trivia ended, so get your facts straight before you start snapping at people and teling them to 'learn how to spell.'

Yeah, if someone isn't producing results necessary to keep the website functioning properly, then i guess they shouldn't be employed, huh?<br />
<br />
It's not our fault, it's the fault of the person who is giving out the trivias. This isn't the first time either. Why do the Subeta admins and mods keep making fools of themselves?<br />
<br />
And a better question, why do we accept such failure? It's not correct to praise a dog when it's just bitten the hand that feeds it. We are the fuel of this website, the people buy their GA's, their cash shop items, and support this site. <br />
<br />
You'd think, that you all would be trying to -impress- us. =/

Luka, doesn't that seem a little extreme? They're just pixels. Little, tiny dots.
Yeesh, people. Relax. The prize will be available again, in another easy trivia. Nobody gained and nobody lost from this mistake. There's no need to get all knotted up about it, and it's pretty unreasonable to suggest DebiLee be fired for it.
XD That silly typo monster strikes again. <br />
<br />
Ah well. I'll just try for it again next time. :3
Mistakes happen you guys, get over it. Are you all so perfect that no mistakes ever happen to you?<br />
<br />
And from what I understand no one likes doing the trivia, so if Debilee didn't do it no one would.<br />
<br />
Give her some credit. Its not like she doesn't go back and find a way to correct her mistake.<br />
<br />
User not found:
like i said, its only fair the question when the cosmic cd player is reused should be easy, if not the same as the one. but with the correctly spelled answer. it may mean a few more winners than before, but that way those of us who did get it right will have the proper chance at getting the prize that's rightfully ours. to make it so less people get it, you could always make the trivia last a smaller amount of time than usual.<br />
<br />
i want that stinking prize, i won it fair and square, and i think i should get it just as easily as before.
Some of you really need to get a life in the real world. You make mistakes there, but expect the virtual world to be perfect. Well, it isn't and never will be. There is no God given right to play this site and until you have walked in Debi's shoes, which I have, get off her back and appreciate all the hard work she does for us. I have rarely read rants about bad trivias that had any validity, and she does an absolutely wonderful, thankless job of keeping these going. So get real people.
I'm sorry, but your answer of home appliances for the trivia was incorrect.<br />

Personally, I like the safe and relatively painless idea of making it a free gift - then if anyone complains it's only because they didn't want to share.<br />
<br />
I like this new prize too - nifty minion =)
Agh. This is sxklzadcn frustrating.
<strong>Nestly:</strong> I'm not mad about it since it's obviously going to be reused and no one got it right, but come on. This is the second time a misspelling has happened in like a week. Is it really THAT hard and does it really take THAT long to simply check the source of the answer, and the trivia to make sure they match so mistakes won't happen? Isn't that Debilee's job? This happens too often and makes the site look really bad and poorly run, I'm sorry to say. <br />
<br />
Reusing an item or making it a free gift and such doesn't make it much better either. The people who guessed right should have won the item. And that's that. Free gifts are worth much less, and new reused trivias are always harder to figure out and yadda yadda. <br />
<br />
Just try to actually put some effort into double checking. Like Santa Claus. XD If he can check his list of a billion kids twice, then I think Debilee/whoever else helps with Trivia could spare a few seconds to check the trivia answers.
this made me so angry... it shouldn't be our fault if the answer we put was correct!<br />
<br />
i really wanted the prize..
There is only one answer to the previous trivia. The answer is Home Appliances for a reason. Just look at the shop description.<br />
Shop Description: "You dont really have a house so these items have no use, yay!"
Event! <br />
I'm sorry, but your answer of bits and bytes for the trivia was incorrect. <br />
<br />
Yeaaah- I chose Bits and Bytes because <i>you can actually <strong>wear</strong> some crap from Home Appliances, but I have yet to see anything vaguely useful come from Bits and Bytes and/or the Grooming Parlor</i>.<br />
<br />
And if 'omg well u kan maek a cumpootr' counts, then it should've been the Grooming Parlor because Home Appliances would equal Bits and Bytes in its uselessness.
Grooming Parlour could have been right too, actually

D<<br />
Ok. Instead of using the prize for another question, why don't you put it up as a free gift? I got the right answer to the trivia and I want the prize. I don't think it's fair to answer another question to get the prize when I answered the first question right. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />

"they have Applances stores in the Artic"<br />
<br />
Thank goodness someone finally said something!!<br />
<br />
I was mad about that trivia because the Trivia does not accept misspelled answers. Yet, the misspelling was on the same page the answer was found. In the same instance, this trivia was not accepted at all. So why was the one with Artic accepted. Such a contradiction!
i think everyone who gave the correct answer should get the item. i don't want to have to wait and maybe get the next question right. we all won it fair and square<br />
<br />
Agreed.<br />
<br />
My only complaint is, I got this one right. Who's to say I will get the next one right? It might not be as easy and the people that got it wrong this time, might get it right next time. So, now I'm out a prize that should have been rightfully mine. <br />
<br />
Trust me I appreciate all the hard work Debi does, and really this might have been no fault of her own, but the prize should still have been awarded to the people that spell it correctly.<br />
<br />
Heck, just because it's automated, doesn't mean there isn't a manual override. At least I sure hope there is for ANY automated process on this site.

I'm relieved to see everyone got it wrong though cause I was like WHAT!!! When I saw I was wrong giggles XD
I just cannot believe people are mad about this...lol no one got it right, it will be reused, people make mistakes, unless those who are mad are perfect? I think not. People get upset over the silliest things. Debbi, it's all good, heck I didn't really like the prize anyways. Happy Holidays.
How funny would it be if someone got the prize because they'd spelt it wrong but it matched the answer?? lol Never mind - there's always a next time. Hopefully before Christmas so that it will be a nice easy question.
elf
Aw, I was so excited to get that prize. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> It's ok, though, we all have the tendency to make mistakes.
we all make mistakes sometimes!<br />
thanks for reusing the prize Debilee hugs
dumb spelling mistake i had the right answer and this trivia is so easy.
oh well I will still try the next time it come out... but without any joy since I don't like the item and it was spoiled by HQ again... i really don't like how they spoil the trivia prize nwo on HQ
Well I know this one but by the look of it it's been miss-spelled so I hope the next one will be as easy... I answered it anyway as I have no idea what way it was miss-spelled shrugs. Anyway everyone makes mistakes and I for one miss-spell allot even though I was the best speller, when I was at school that is I'm not as sharp now though <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" />...
WTH?? THEY misspelled it, so we got the answer wrong?? Who let them suggest a misspelled question and answer?!
LoL.... it's okay. You're only human. =)

Wow, I said Grooming Parlor on that last one. I'm glad they will be using the prize again...
I was mad too but this is to funny now that I think about it <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> It was due to a spelling error <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

lol woot for keeping us too serious trivia people on our toes lol thank you for reusing the prize and cute prize for this next one too (runs off to make sure there arent any typos...)
Well I think I'm right with this one o.o I hope, the prize is awesome!
Hasn't this question been used before?
this one is a easy one cool!
i was mad at first....but now i think its funny....lol <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

aww~ nvr mind! people makes mistakes!!
I'm glad they are going to reuse the prize <3 I really liked that one.
that makes sense. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> I just hope when it's redone that the question isn't one that is umm...harder. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> since many should have won this already. but...eh, it's just a game too. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Lol. Can we do this again, some time? Enjoyed that bit there =P<br />
<br />
And onwards!
I was a bit shocked to see I was wrong at first, but now that I see it was just a mistake, I'm happy again xD
The Dark Matter Glompy Fish was given as a free gift after a trivia mistake, you are right... but I think someone actually won that one and mispelled it like Debi... This time no one did, so it's perfectly fine that she will reuse it <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
User not found:
Lisa - I /think/ that because it's all automated, they don't actually store the answers users enter to the Trivia once it's over, so there's no way of telling who got it right and who got it wrong other than to rely on people telling the truth... which probably isn't that reliable, unfortunately. That's just something I heard, it could be totally off.
User not found:
Aww, poor Debi xD I'm really not upset, I'm actually closer to falling over from laughing. Oh well, everyone makes spelling errors <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> is checking over this three times to make sure there're no mistakes
sure mistakes happen. I just wonder why they can't make it so the ones who spelled it correctly don't just get the prize. but maybe that's harder to set up than I know. New prize is pretty cool
LOL My jaw dropped when I got the notice that I got it wrong, it had seemed so easy! And my internet was giving me problems so I couldn't look up the answer to see why I got it wrong for ages! Oh well, hopefully the next one will be equally easy <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />.

I think it might be more fair to give it to the ones who had the right asnwer even if the spelling was off.
lol. how funny. I was hoping for the prize for Decious's treasure chest but at least it'll be reused. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

To all the people saying that it was just a mistake, and everyone makes them so we shouldn't be mad. If mistakes didn't seem to be a regular part of the trivias, people wouldn't be angry. But as it is, there's been some kind of mistake (answer mispelled on the site, multiple possible answers, formatting errors, etc) with a good quarter to a third of the questions/answers, so people are going to react in a negative way to any and all mistakes.
This trivia was used before..
I'm sorry, but your answer of bits and bytes for the trivia was incorrect.<br />
<br />
<br />
=P Its like...I think I should feel stupid...but I don't! Yay!
g can happen. unfortunately i like this new prize much more, but don't know the answer yet xD
Just to clarify.. i and alot of other people who put their opinions in comments really appreciate all the work Debilee does for trivias. She does a great job obviously. Its one of my favorite things to do on Subeta. So i really do not think anyone was really trying to be rude... some people seem to be suck ups however.. (jk) lol.
User not found:
Come on people, humans made mistakes. Even for Debi herself she is a human, and she MAKES mistakes like we do. I won't be angry or pissed at all, she've been giving us easy Trivias!
I forgive whoever's mistake it was, gosh no one is perfect and if they were then no one would have anything to whine about, lol J/K
I take it as HA was the correct answer, nevermind it is not Debi's fault everyone makes mistakes, though I could of used that trivia for BB.

We were given the prize once before ... because of a mistake. I think it was a dark matter something.. oh well. =)
And they can't manually award the prize because NO ONE sees the answers, it is all automated. So you'll have to wait for next time, sorry <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
Hmm i do agree with that Cobralily =)
i think everyone who gave the correct answer should get the item. i don't want to have to wait and maybe get the next question right. we all won it fair and square!<br />
<br />
Agreed.
This sounds awfully familiar, didn't they just ask this question not long ago?
Aww Debi! Pester those programmers for a spell check, lol!
I totally love the irony...those "Home Appliances" really were of no use. Ah well, such is life...short pause for a zen moment. All together now everyone...Ohmmmmmmm <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

Wow The funny thing is when I typed my answer I forgot the i, then fixed it when I double checked it
Aw, I hate it when you have to reuse a prize; I like seeing something new every time!
Can someone get Debi a spellchecker for Christmas? Please?
hmmmm.......... i see a habit forming.
Ohh geez XP I was like "How could I have possibly been wrong?!" but then I read the explanation ^^ I really wanted that CD player for one of my pets, so I'm glad it'll be reused.
