The Answer To It All


Hmm, I didn't think I was going to have to do this, but I guess maybe I didn't make the directions for yesterday's Fun Nature Trivia game clear enough. I was trying to keep it short so we could get on with the game. Then again I was trying to be vague about everything in an effort to kick off this new series of trivia posts I'll be doing.

The point was to give you a bit of a mystery to begin with to add even more fun to this first one. I guess it just became an exercise in frustration.I do have to admit that I've had a nice evil chuckle over the whole thing though. I even gave you a clue in the comments section. Since I made this into a game there was also a chance for there to be a winner of the game. That winner is Sharkbytes! She figured out the mystery and even gave out the answer on her site, My Quality Day.

I guess I also promised to reveal the answer today. I always say that my games are always the easiest kind, and this one was really no exception to that. You really didn't figure it out? Anyway, it turns out that I am magic. I have the power of invisibility! The answers to the game are in the post, but I've made them invisible. Magic!



Oh, I keep forgetting... I think you want to know how to be able to see those answers. Me and my twitchy typing fingers. Well here are two easy ways to do just that. The first way to find the answers is to click anywhere within that post with your mouse, then hold down Ctrl-A on you keyboard. Now look again at the page. There are your answers.

The second way is to click and hold down your left mouse button on the first word in the post. Now drag it down the screen until you reveal the answers you want to see. Each answer is right below each question! See? Very simple. Once you see the answers you'll know that the game is only intended to be there for a little bit of goofy nature trivia. I made the answers invisible to make it more fun while you read the questions.

After you find the answers you can come right back here and let me know how evil I've been. If you still have trouble I'll be here to answer your specific questions today. After that I'll be back tomorrow with an all new thrilling episode of The Everyday Adventurer!
