	Why oh why do people always say "way too easy" or "way too hard"? Are you trying to prove something? Maybe for you alone it is (easy or hard)- not everyone will think the same way and may be a tad annoyed to read such comments. Nice quiz I liked it.

	You can say things like that but as of this post 65% are getting all of the answers. That means it's either too easy or there's too much time and should be adjusted.

	When it's something like 10% that get them all correct, I feel like getting perfect is an accomplishment. When >50% get them all right, it's not that big of a deal if I get them all since most people did.

	@Failbot: Rubbish. Quizzes aren't made for everyone to fail at. Besides, every sporcler knows that the Daily Doses aren't supposed to be very hard. Just mentally stimulating, not mentally blowing. Look somewhere else for harder quizzes.

	should it be "log you have aT christmas"?

	@Pogues, The Oh is because that was how you got to the "O"perator.

	I've always believed that quizzes were intended to challenge people. Does missing one constitute failing a quiz? I don't care for phrases like 'Every sporcler knows'; I was not aware that the daily doses were supposed to be easy. I like being challenged, whether its the daily dose, or any other quiz. I don't expect to get 100% on any quiz I take. I like to see where I stand in relation to others. If 50% or more are grouped into a single bucket I am unable to discern that.

	Chill. We aren't being graded on these. Neither is a prospective employer going to be impressed when you tell him you got 100% on today's word ladder nor refuse you the job on the basis that you got < 50%. These are for fun.

	"Nose?" That is quite a jump from wine. I understand trying to be creative but when the majority of the quiz is super literal this seems out of place.

	@Pogues "none" = "not one" = ~1 = 0 (think binary) Just kidding.

	CapeYaleCod:	Dec 1st, 2011 at 19:11 GMT	2 points
	I'm a fan of this one for obvious reasons...

	Ulkomaalainen:	Dec 1st, 2011 at 20:31 GMT	2 points
	Yes, if most quizzes here would have a bias towards "65% getting them all" it might be that it is an easy quiz. There is, however, no "too easy" unless you have a certain purpose in mind. If your goal is to differentiate, then there is such a thing as "too easy" or "too hard" since you would put too many people in a group. If your goal is to have a decent challenge, maybe with time pressing you to think faster, then too. But: if your goal is having fun, then it totally depends on you and me, and we're all different here. I like hard challenges and enjoy getting 6 out of 30 on a (at least for me) hard quiz, but I like my daily dose mellow, doable with a sip of coffee. You don't, that's just as valid, but not "more valid", I think. So for entertainment there's no such thing as a general "too easy" or "too hard" when people disagree. It's just like with music: I do not like techno music at all, but I cannot say that it is "too noisy" because apparently quite a few like it that way.

	PS: I enjoyed this one, it had a nice flow, dunno what it did better than others in this category (it's not that it's easy), but it did something right. At least for me.

	Stran:	Dec 1st, 2011 at 22:19 GMT	5 points
	Considering Sporcle is done for fun and entertainment, why do some people make such a big deal of it all? Let's just relax and enjoy this!!

	austin5string:	Dec 1st, 2011 at 22:48 GMT	3 points
	@Stran - because people don't feel superior enough if they're lumped in with 60% of the people that take the quiz. Quite pathetic, really.

	Congratulations, norathepixie on your first published quiz! Don't worry about the too easy/it's for fun debate - this is a highly rated quiz for a ladder, and you write nice clues.

	aznemesis:	Dec 11th, 2011 at 02:37 GMT	1 point
	@austin5string: That is my feeling, too. Do people really base their sense of accomplishment and self worth on Internet quizzes? If so, I'm completely baffled as to what brings someone to that state.

	it was easy, but I definitely liked it! it was fun
