    Petition to Blu on Quiz

    I have not played the quiz, so my request should be unbiased.

    Allow and reinstate multi account participation for families.

    Do not let a few cheats to spoil it for so many others.
    One cheat has certainly learned the consequences.
    And it seems your vigilant monitoring keeps thing in check.

    What do others think???

    I think it's good the way it is IMO if he goes back to the way it was it just invites the cheaters back
    Sorry

      I agree it should be left as it is - unfortunately the actions of one (maybe more) have spoiled it for families who were playing honestly but at least we know its more of a level playing field now....

        Because blu is the one involved in this day in & day out, I go with his judgement. I do admit I would like to see families allowed to play but I go with the call. I am a single player.

          I had 2 accounts one for me and one for my son, we dont play every day any more do its not a big deal to take turns when we get the chance to play.

          Not that big a deal if that is what it takes to keep people from cheating then so be it.

            blu's the host, he knows best, there were a lot of suspiciously high consistent scores in very low times.

                I think mine was in the other category, suspiciously low scores in very high times.

                  I know it takes a little time to read the questions and think through them and so I'm happy when I get a good score. I feel good about it that I know I did it and not me plus 5 other IDs.

                  Sorry Jamoskeag, even though bigkid has PM'ed his apologies to me, it's one ID per household.

                    It is too bad that the honest multiple accounts can't play but I have to agree there were alot of consistent low times, great scores. I'm not saying that they were all cheating,(some people are just alot better then I am) but I guess to insure everything is honest this is the way it should probably be unfortunately.

                      Unfortunatly, the game was ruined by the cheaters. Adults acting like spoiled children. Blu, you had to do what you had to do. No more no less.
                      You have my respect.

                        I have to agree all the way. My sympathy's go to the families that were abiding correctly.

                        This is not a new idea to have one per househould when games are involved but it is unfortunate that it had to be implemented here.

                        Mrs. Burrell play's in an online league, but I can't because we are in the same household. So she play's and I am here. LOL

                        Of all the post's I have read by Blu he has gained my utmost respect and this decision is no exception.

                        For that I have to stand behind Blu's decision.

                        We all can move on and keep this a positive atmosphere.

                          I think Blooie did the right thing for sure...I just want to add that sometimes it is possible to get a low time and a high score but it does seem very odd when it happens every day...but as the old saying goes you only cheat yourselfs..and hey no one who was cheating has ever come out on top for a month so thats gotta count for something...
