Hi there,

I like your Jeopardy game. It will be very useful for my Maths class. Is there a way of including superscript characters into the questions and answers? I would like the class to practice equations and need to put numbers and variables to powers.

Let me know if it can be done or put it on the “nice to have” list for the next version.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

In Windows, go Start…Run and type in Charmap and press Enter. In the window that appears, change the font to Arial. There are a few superscripted numbers in there – 0,1,2,3, n and there are some fractions. To use them, copy them to the clipboard, then Paste (Ctrl-V) them into the Jeopardy Question Editor.

The Mediafire download site appears to have been specifically designed to thwart downloads. It really seems to want me to buy something. I understand that they are providing a laughably small document download for free, but how many pounds of flesh do they need to do so? If you really don’t want to offer something for free, then don’t. But Mediafire should not just waste peoples’ time with their purposely misdesigned web site. When you host your files here, it just makes the software look bad, regardless of its quality.

Just my two cents.

Thanks for the program, access and download. Going to go and try it now.

Hi Exploro, the only thing I use Mediafire for is to host multimedia quizzes and skins that people make. If you have ad-blocker turned on in your browser, it will be just two clicks to get your desired file from Mediafire, you choose the option “Click Here to start Download” which is just to the right of the green arrow download icon, and immediately it should give you the option to save. Certainly, Mediafire wants to make money for providing their free service, so they display ads. A lot of them.

But if I were to host these user-generated skins and multimedia quizzes on my site, it would cost me even more money than I’m paying now. Some of the skins are downloaded thousands of times a week. The Jeopardy program itself has been downloaded over 100,000 times to date. While you get it for free (and complain about it), it costs me money. While there’s a Donation button up there, I could count the number of donations I’ve received over the years on my hands. If you’d like to take over the cost of hosting to make the software look more professional, I’d be glad to take you up on it. Hope you enjoy Jeopardy.

Just a quick question: love the program, use it regularly with my science classes. I do have some quizzes I’d be willing to share – just wanted to know how.

Cheers!

Stu-
I have to say… This program is fantastic. I am an elementary school librarian and in teaching kids research skills, I regularly use games as motivators. Over the years I have used other “Jeopardy type” programs, but yours is by far the best. This week I used your program our “Musical Jeopardy” The kids loved it as much as I did. I especially like the scoring system. Many thanks for your hard work and generosity.

Hi Stu,

I ran into a little problem when I tried to play the audio-visual quiz included in the Quiz Boxes download (J-AudioVisual). The audio questions are fine, but when I click on a visual (image) question, an error box came up saying “Run-time error ’6′: Overflow” then the whole program shut down… HELP :(

Thank you.

Hi Christine, I believe the problem is computer-related. Because I know nothing about your computer, all I can suggest for you is to try it on another PC. The quiz works on every computer I’ve ever used.

Hi Stu,

I tried it on 3 different PCs: XP, Vista, and Windows 7… and same thing happened to all of them… I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO :( HELP :’(…..

Hi Christine. I just downloaded and installed the program onto a PC that has never had QuizBoxes installed. I ran the program and opened the Audio Visual quiz and every image displays just fine when you select the boxes. Unfortunately no-one has reported the error you are getting before, yet somehow you got it on three different PCs. Is there a friend who can try it and give you a second opinion?
