Tests? Exams? Ugh, NO!!

It's always great discovering something new that people are working on and I've been talking with Ole who runs the Exquizitely website. This is dedicated to playing online quizzes with one area devoted to the Atari ST. There are different quiz modes, and all scores are recorded and saved with an option to replay anytime.

I normally hate things like this as I'm rubbish at quizzes but I've thoroughly enjoyed it. You shall note that a few of us from the ST world have already played. It was no shock (for me) to discover who made the top slot. I'll say nothing more but I'm sure you have already guessed? I'll give you a clue, it isn't me! :)

ExQUIZitely is a professionally designed website by two friends, Ben & Ole. What a great website and I'm happy to have helped (a little) to beta test it. Also, I asked Ole for some background on their work...

"Ben and I created the site to make something purely driven by passion. We both have day jobs, so we do this exQUIZitely project on the side, after hours. That's why word of mouth (or any other help) is so important. We wanted a clean, playful, ad-free, no-BS site. Ben is a programmer, and I do all the other stuff (design, content, reaching out). We wanted an 80s theme, hence the pixel-style graphics and the old-school 80s TV screen layout for the quiz."

I urge you all to check this out for yourselves... https://exquizitely.com/quiz/Atari-ST-Games

Three quiz modes last 1-3 mins or you can play sudden death.
Here, I am playing "stacker" mode. This is abbreviated by "ST" pleasingly enough!

Challenges can be set with the results taken and recorded.
Ole challenged me in the (of course) Atari ST quiz.

There are loads of other quizzes you can partake in.
I tried one about the capitals of countries. Never have I sucked so badly... Ugh!!
