I know I’ve been slipping with timely posts of the quiz, but I keep realizing that I have to make them harder. Yes, you read that right. Here are this week’s standings…

The Rules:

1. Every Monday I will post a new set of trivia questions and you will have until the following Sunday evening at 8:00 pm to submit your answers to me via e-mail at quiz2010@whatwouldthembido.com. The best way to go about this is to copy and paste the quiz in the email. Please DO NOT post answers in the comments section.
2. I will post the answers

I almost didn’t bring back the Black History Month Pop Culture Challenge this year. To be honest, I’ve been hit with a wave of winter malaise that’s kept me from being as enviably sharp as my usual quick-witted pop culture genius self. There’s still just enough random trivia floating around in my head to make this fun, so here goes nothin’…

I started the Black History Month Pop Culture Challenge in 2009 as a way to shake some of the staleness off of February. Sure black cultural phenomena from 100 years ago and history makers that live today are…

First, I wanted to thank everyone for playing – I had such a great time creating these quizzes and reading your answers (even the wrong ones if they were funny). A whole lot of you played but only eight of you stuck it out for all four rounds, so I have to give props to you – JazzFan360, Mr Smart guy, Woe, Latoya, Lola, Joy, Monica, and Malcolm! A special shout out to bfolk, who really gave it his all even though he knew he wasn’t a contender.

This week’s results were crazy for a 115 point quiz…

The Rules again:

- You will have until Sunday evening at 8:00 pm to submit your answers to me via e-mail at quiz@whatwouldthembido.com.
-I will post the answers and the top 10 scores every Tuesday.
-The quiz will be cumulative, so anyone can take the lead at any time! The best part is, because I love my readers so much, the winner gets a $100 gift certificate to iTunes, Target, or Amazon.com! I’m so for real!

The best way to go about this is to copy and paste the quiz into an e-mail, title the e-mail “Week…

This week’s quiz was way easier but it was just the calm before the storm. Trust me, Week 4’s quiz will come out on Tuesday and because it determines who gets $100 of my hard-earned dough it will be nothin’ nice.

This week’s scores were crazy high:

1. Mr Smart Guy, Joy, Woe – 110

2. Monica – 105 (I robbed Monica of 15 points last week, sorry girl!)

3. Dwayne – a newcomer! – 100

4. Danielle – 95

5. Latoya – 83

A lot of people were very close…

7. Who Am I? Name this pioneering entertainer. (10 points)

The Rules again:

- You will have until Sunday evening at 8:00 pm to submit your answers to me via e-mail at quiz@whatwouldthembido.com.
-I will post the answers and the top 10 scores every Tuesday.

The best way to go about this is to copy and paste the quiz into an e-mail, title the e-mail “Week One” insert your answers and send it to me. I will only accept one entry per week per person, and you may not use an anonymous e-mail address for submissions. Don’t leave answers in the comments because what’s the point of that?! Lastly, if you use the internet to find the answers you’se a CHEATER, but to guard against you sneaky petes not all of the questions can be answered through Google alone anyway so don’t even try to break fly! And yes, there will always be an extra credit bonus question that loyal readers will have an easier time answering.

1. Photo ID. This is the cast photo of what short-lived 90’s sitcom? (5 points)

This week’s quiz was intentionally tough, and you guys rose to the occasion! Since some people did last week’s quiz but not this week’s things are closer than expected. This week’s top scorers were:

1. Joy – 95

2. MrSmartGuy – 82

3. JazzFan360 – 77

4. Monica – 72

5. Lola – 70

With a bunch of people very close behind even if they didn’t play this week.

That leaves the current standings at:

1. Joy – 205

2. MrSmartGuy – 192

3. Monica – 167

4. JazzFan360…
