Twitter Trivia: Why Thursdays Are Awesome

Posted by on Thu, May 27th, 2010 at 11:00 am


It’s Thursday and as always that means Twitter Trivia, the game where I give you the questions, you give me the answers and I give you the Swag Bucks! Of course, the questions usually come from you, so I’m giving you your own questions…

If you’re new to Twitter or Twitter Trivia, here’s how we reward per question:

Question 1: First 4 correct responders win 50 Swag Bucks each

Question 2: First 2 correct responders win 75 Swag Bucks each

Question 3: First correct responder wins 100 Swag Bucks!

To play, head on over to Twitter. I’ll usually announce on Twitter and Facebook about 10 minutes prior that Trivia will be starting. So make sure you follow us on Twitter.

Then, when I ask a question, you must reply to Swagbucks for your answer to be counted. The easiest way to do this is to hit the curved arrow under the star on the Swagbucks tweet containing the question. This will start your tweet with “@Swagbucks“. After that text, answer the question with correct spelling and answer EVERY PART OF THE QUESTION.

An important note: DO NOT DIRECT MESSAGE the answer. This clogs our inbox and prevents me from rewarding winners as swiftly as I should be. So, if you want less delay between questions, @ Reply to Swagbucks, do NOT Direct Message your answers. Trivia questions ALWAYS have multiple parts so giving one right answer out of the 3 questions asked in the tweet is a wrong answer. Answer ALL parts of the question.

If you’re one of the first to answer correctly, TSG will send a message to your Twitter inbox (or Direct Message you, AKA “DM”) giving you instructions on how to claim your Swag Bucks.

Twitter Trivia begins at 3:30PM PDT today.

Good luck to all!
