4 or 6 weeks? Feedback requested

[samgrant]

Now that we've tried the 4 week game, I am having second thoughts.

Please let me know what you all think.

Must be a fossilized curmudgeon. I think I like the 6 week game better. Maybe because somehow it gives better odds for rankings over the six weeks, per question. (I never took statistics; this might be faulty thinking.)

Four,Six, Eight or even ten - It doesn't really matter how long we play, as long as we can play.
The only thing that I object to is the term "TRIVIA." I prefer to call them "little known facts" rather than make them seem so unimportant (But I lost that battle several years ago).

My threads are out of order. I'll put this on top for a couple days.

Length of Game

The four week game is fine.

I'm sitting on the fence too. I enjoy hunting down the answers (certainly beats working) . A six week game certainly allows for chances to save onself after a bad week however.

Thanks for running it!

The 4-week game is ok for me.

Players,

Thanks for your thoughts.

I have decided to return to the six week format.

Some reasons:

Six weeks allows for a greater variety of questions over time.

Six weeks gives folks who miss a week or have a bad week a better chance to recover.

Six weeks means fewer visits to the Post Office for me to send prizes.

Those are enough for me .

Next game will be #59. Six week game.
