What's with BroadwayWorld's Tony Awards Quiz?

Posted: 5/15/16 at 10:40am

So I was perusing BroadwayWorld and came upon their Tony quiz (https://www.broadwayworld.com/tonygame.cfm)

However, it doesn't know any of the correct answers to its own questions. For example, the question would be "Who won Best Featured Actress in a Play in 2015?" When I answered correctly "Annaleigh Ashford", it told me "Sorry, you are wrong". Same thing when it asked which show won Best Musical in 2004. (It tried to tell me the correct answer was Wicked...) Ummm...huh? Is this quiz meant to be a joke or what?

That quiz has been around for nearly 10 years, since some of the dates of the high scorers go back to '07 (perhaps they added a few questions.) I suppose its possible that something went wonky after a while. Or that some one puposely messed with it.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

I see. Good to know! I didn't realize it was that old.
