Playing Quizzes
- How long do I get to answer a question?
- The amount of time to answer a question varies from quiz to quiz. Dependent on the quiz you are playing, the time currently ranges from 15 seconds to 10 minutes.
- Can I pause the timer?
- No, definitely not. The clock is designed to continually run to create an element of tension in our quizzes.
- I answered a question correctly, but it’s shown as incorrect, why?
- Whilst we spend an incredible amount of time verifying our quiz questions and answers unfortunately a rogue answer can occasionally slip through.
You can help us by telling us on our Contact Us page the name of the quiz, what the question was, what you believe to be the correct answer. We will do our best to hunt it down and correct it.
Leaderboard Scoring
- How does my score get on the leaderboard?
- All scores achieved by registered users who are logged in are posted to the leaderboard.
At the end of a quiz, if you are not already logged in, either login or join Quiz Factor and then all the quiz scores achieved during your session of use will be automatically posted to the relevant leaderboards.
- How can I get higher up the leaderboard?
- With Ladder quizzes, by correctly completing the various levels, your Leaderboard score should automatically improve as you progress.
The Time Trial quizzes are designed for a one-time play so your first score will remain your only (and best) score.
