I've added many questions over the last few months and they are rarely answered. The next logical step leads me to believe that few GBers are using the feature. I still enjoy it and use it at least once every week. How about you? If you don't, why not?

I added two questions on December 27. One of them has been answered 14 times, and one of them has never been answered.
I think the problem is this: We have a number of people submitting loads of trivia. We also have people answering trivia, but a single user can only answer a question once, whereas users can submit as much trivia as they want. This gives us more trivia questions than we have people to answer the questions, and some trivia goes unanswered for months at a time.

I think people still use it quite a bit. I submitted 3 questions on January 7th, and together they have been answered 287 times. Granted, for some reason 1 has been answered a lot more than the other two but still, quite a lot.

It's slowed. Granted, my old ones have been up longer, but being answered 2000+ times versus less than 10...kind of suspicious.

I don't really bother with the trivia questions anymore. No real reason to why, just lost interest in doing them.

 I don't use them often anymore, but they are a great feature. It was kind of ruined by the fact that every "true or false" question is always true.

I noticed that too.

The probability to get your questions answered is lessened as more questions are added. However, I have for the most part stopped answering trivia because of all the extremely obvious and/or True/False questions. I finally tried again last night and had literally 50 T/F in a row all with True as the right answer.

That would be excellent.

I don't use it on a regular basis but every once and a while I will sit down and answer a bunch of stuff.
