Truth be told, the nature of trivia is knowledge, not reasoning. This topic should be dedicated to trivia questions based around The Land Before Time, as Malte's questions have been, and such questions will tend to be knowledge-based.
could ask whether you don't get the feeling that some of us don't want to / can't answer questions about particular computer games which some of us simply don't have and are therefore not able to answer.
Assuming that video games Were allowed in this topic (of course, they won't be, as it's an LBT Trivia game), I must believe that they would be valid questions. As I stated above, trivia is based upon knowledge.
If the question is Intentionally geared towards a certain person to answer, I believe that it is an unfair.
If the question is referring to a topic that some people may know and others may not, that is acceptable. HOw are we to know everything about what everyone else knows? If everyone did know, what would be the fun of a trivia game?
Trivia is a test of what a person knows about the topics covered.
Anyways, back to LBT:
When it comes to LBT trivia, I say anything goes around here (so long as it is related to LBT, of course). Malte's questions have all been completely legitimate, though rather deep to discover the answers for without previous knowledge. Regarding video games, those who don't own a certain game could always download the demo of it, research articles on it, etc. to find an answer. It is never impossible, but it's all a question of how much work the players will put into locating such information. I think this last question just caught many of the players, as few people wanted to try to locate this amount of information. Good question though, Malte. It challenges everyone's knowledge of real dinosaur history.
I must admit, that I don't have an answer to your question either.
