I tried so hard to win at the WW2BAM room.. Trivia didn't suit me i guess. I thought that with my trivial personality I can make it big time in that room. I tried everything. I glued my eyeballs to the computer screen. Flexed my fingers and typed like hell - pak da spel. The Way to Go Lordfoo came rarely. I hated those Phobia questions...Whats fear of the number thirteen...Pogonophobia is the scientific term for a fear of ________? King Henry III of France regularly ate poultry soaked in what? Arrggghh.
I tried Google. O lord...I tried Google and i got to love Google...but I got so distracted...there are so many interesting sites...Now I know what a Lolita is...I didn't know you could do that - with Dogs? Horses? What will they think of next? Elephants? Eeeeewwwwwww !!!...People eat that? !!!! Holy mother of ....Hmmmm..Lookit the size of that thing...Very interesting...Hmmmm...
I learned the truth that Googlecan't help you in that room. The ww2bam reggiers were already answering the trivia quiz while i was still trying to type the question in google. Sometimes you wonder about the other contestants and the kyuems. Some of the guys are lightning fast. Can anybody tell me how the hell these guys know that the name of the hosre of Alexander the Great was Bucephalus ? hehehe....Nah...sour grapes yan anoh...No, altavista didnt work either. Di puedeng maging millionaire dun. I was a wallflower at the Trivia Contest.
Step 2... To be a Quiz Master
So, instead....I tried to be a Quiz Master. I thought I can do research on trivial things and make a name in the room. Yes! Thats it. so I went back to google and tried very very HARD not to get distracted...well something else got very very Hard. Hmmmm...Pamela did that? wow...ei lookit the size of those booties...Hmmm..
I finally made my list of q's...
I volunteered to be QM in the room...
:( Waaaahhh....Wala din...Lang kwenta daw akong kyuem.
The chatters there said my questions were as foolish as my nickname.
They said, "pak the q's",
When i persevered...
they said, "pak da QM".
Never one to give up i still asked my questions and...
they iggied me.
One last time i tried my trivia q's....
someone booted me out.
I think i am on permanent IGGY for some of the chatters there...
Okay naman yung mga questions and answers. that i came up with hindi ba ? Persh, alexa, mystic (mga dating taga UP room na nag balimbing at naging WW2BaM reggies na?) Di ba okay naman ang q's ko? Palagay ko inggit lang sila kasi maganda yung bago kong nick: Gwaah_foo.
Corny ba talaga mga questions ko ? Waaaahhh...
Hahahaha...but WW2BAM is a fun room...grabe...its one of the most popular rooms in our region. 24 hours 7 days a week its open. The room is so freaking popular...Only the sex rooms have more denizens. There's nothing Trivial about sex.
Seriously, the room's reggies have these advice on How To Be A Good QM?
1. You must have at least 20 questions of different category.
2. You must know how to cut and paste... Ctrl C Ctrl V
3. You should acknowledged the person who gave the correct answer.
4. You should post the correct answer.
5. You should asked questions of different categories.
6. You should have patience for chatters who are "makulit" and who complaints a lot.
7. You must set rules, like wrong spelling is a wrong answer ; if a contestant is not using black font, the answer is not counted. And you must be firm..
8. You must give clues.
9. You must be flexible and accept if you have made a mistake.
10. You should never say the phrase "Use Your Common Sense."
11. Lastly, you must not be color blind...QM used RED FONTS.
P. S. Never ask a "Why" question! (Thanks @Icarus..)
Thetrueasitic, one of the great chatters in the room collected bloopers and posted it in their website...I could die laughing just reading through his bloopers list...so I plagriazed the list for my blog. Thanks for the list TrueAsiatic!!!
For a few examples of the bloopers list:.
Skny: A banana is not a fruit but a ________?
Sky: berry (correct ans : herb)
Skny: Abantling is a (n) __________?
Azriel: Noun (correct answer : young child)
Trueasiatic: Ano sa inglies ang durungawan?
Celestial: Bintana (correct answer : window)
Step 3... Did I tell you yet about the last resort??? .. If you cant be a millionaire, nor a QM, why not just be a Reggie?
Keep yelling Way To Go Albie, Gleng Gleng WUGWUG, Whoohooo Siete!!!
Greet every newcomer.
Say Goodbye to everyone who leaves.
Basta manghalay ka na lang sa room...and attend EB's.

Being Friends with you guys, have made me..
a millionaire a million times over.
I salute you...Way to Go...
