** Please see end of post for future quiz dates. **

Are you ready for some friendly competition? We sure hope so. This summer we'll again be hosting live online quizzes for the Bible Bee, which will include the following features:

  • Recitation, reference, and multiple choice questions (all automatically scored -- recitation and reference questions in your preferred version)
  • Opportunity to talk with the other contestants (you'll be encouraged)
  • Mini Scoreboard that updates after each question (for a little competition)
  • Roster of all contestants present (so you know who else is there)

We hope you can join us!

Here's what to do to get ready:

  • Study your material...
  • Sign up for a free Memverse account if you don't already have one...
  • Update your browser for an optimal experience...
  • Mark your calendar...
  • And click here on the day of the quiz to go to the "room"!

We're so excited and pray you all have a great time in the Word this summer! We'll be updating this post with more dates and times for future quizzes, so stay tuned. And please, invite your Bible Bee friends to join us!

Update: Finale Quiz is Friday, August 24, at 4:00 p.m. EDT; and we need your help building it...

Oh! I really hope I can come! I'll ask my mom. Last year I didn't pay any attention do the blog posts, so I didn't know you were doing them. :) Thank you so much! I can't wait. =)

Google Chrome or Firefox will almost always work better than Internet Explorer. Please note that we will soon be dropping support for IE8. If you are using Internet Explorer, please make sure you upgrade to IE9.

Guess I'd better ask my dad about updating our browser...since I definitely want it to work for the quiz. We've always used IE, but I guess its time for a change!

A5add584fd0f556712d9e039c68fa698?d=wavatar
Andy

IE7 is highly unlikely to work. Actually, I would be surprised if most of the features on Memverse weren't broken in IE7 since that browser is 6 years old now and is incompatible with most of the modern web standards.

Even IE8 does not support many of the more modern browser features. We have some patches that help IE8 work a bit better but we'd prefer to drop support for it as soon as possible as it just means a slower experience for everyone else.

I have a group of Bible Bee contestants who will be getting together at that time. Can we sign in and do the quiz as a group? (I'll have it posted on the wall using laptop and video projector.) I would like to use this as a way not only for them to practice for the Bible Bee, but to also encourage them to use Memverse. They are using different translations, so we'll have to pick someone to do the recitations, but I thought it would be fun to have the group decide on answers to the quiz. Right or wrong majority answer is posted. Or we could just pick one contestant to play with all others observing. Not having seen previous quizzes, I'm not sure what is best.

E722bfd45297b0c0558ed8ed53593094?d=wavatar
Alex Watt

Twilah - That's great. I'll give you a few details on the quizzes that might help you decide what would be best: we'll have no more than eight recitation questions (since there's two passages per week and Friday is the end of the fourth week). We give enough time to allow the passage to be typed out at a speed of 24 WPM with 15 extra seconds to think. The rest of the questions will be either what we call reference questions or multiple choice questions. (A reference question is where we give the passage text and the quizzer must enter the passage reference. It's not necessarily a Bible Bee type of question but may help reinforce the link between the reference and the text.) Quizzers have exactly 20 seconds to answer both reference and multiple choice type questions.

You could let the group use your account to do the quiz.

E37c1db2f56b5085c8410bf2fda324f3?d=wavatar
_

Thanks Alex, that was helpful! Depending on the size of the group (all 172 of our contestants are invited, I expect less than 10 to attend), I will give everyone in the group LETTER paddles for the multiple choice (and enter the selection chosen by the most members of the group) and choose one person (taking turns by passing a baton) to dictate the reference or verse recitation and I'll type for them. That way it is a true group effort, but eliminates the need for changing 'typers' and lower the risk of accidental damage to my laptop. I presume we will need to choose one Bible translation that stays the same throughout the quiz?

I only included all these details in case other hosts may be interested in doing it as a group activity for their non-Memverse-contestants.

As others have said, I really appreciate the effort it takes for you to do this for these young people. God bless you.

E722bfd45297b0c0558ed8ed53593094?d=wavatar
Alex Watt

Twilah - Yes, currently you have to pick one translation and stick with it for the quiz...

Our family appreciates your work as a host or host assistant; having a Bee with that many contestants must be a lot of work!

It's thankfully not on the leader board so Michigan can PROVE Ohio it is better! :P

No, really, I don't know why it is. Maybe the Alexanders moved to another state, maybe Washington (if Washington was not already #3, was it?), but I highly doubt it, because they would've probably told us so.

When my Dad arrives in a few hours, we will have 3 generations of Walkers together on Indonesian soil (the legend who spent 30 years teaching Hebrew and Greek and spreading the Gospel here; the Scripture enthusiast who hopes to spread a passion for the Bible throughout the 40 Setia schools, and through them and other venues throughout the country (and who hopes - not quite ready to predict - that Indonesia will one day challenge the USA for 1st on the Memverse country chart; and the future hope we are praying will seek God early in life to see what the Almighty has in store for him.)

Leah - At least every other week, if not every week.

Matthew - I thought it was your web protection, not your browser... We actually found an article about how that specific web protection program blocks the tool we use for the quizzes.

I've been trying to get into the quiz, but nothing's showing up. :( I have Google Chrome, and I participated with no problems last year, so this was unexpected for me. Is anyone else having problems, or is it my computer? Thanks anyway to those who have been working on this! I like the countdown clock feature. :)

Mr. Walker - The World Choir Games were wonderful! We gave out tracts to thousands of people. We met people from all over the world, especially China, Indonesia, and India. Most of the Indonesians we met hardly knew any English, and they were very excited to get the tracts in Indonesian! Thank you so much for getting those translated! It was such a blessing.

There is a slight difference in one of the Bible Bee verses between the way it's written in the verse cards and the way it's on Memverse. In the verse cards (KJV) Acts 20:20 says, "And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shown you..." but on Memverse it says shewed instead of shown. The verse has already been "Verified", so I wasn't able to change it.

Have I done something illegal on Memverse? I'm just wondering because my account won't work on the BB quiz. I have tried several various forms of internet Google Chrome and Internet Explorer and also several computers. If I have done something offensive I want to apologize for what I have done and ask forgiveness. Thanks guys.

COULD BE IMPORTANT: I entered one, but just after I entered it, I realized I forgot to check it. I thought it might be wrong - I'm pretty sure it's right, but if it's wrong, you'll know why. One of the answers is "Wickedness" (I'm not saying whether it's correct/incorrect), so that's the question you'll want to check. I'm so sorry for being hasty. I hope I typed it right!

@Alex, by the way, I also have a strange question about this picture:

Is it copyrighted? I would like to use it on the front cover of a novel I'm writing. If it is ©, then who holds it? If you hold it, may I use it? Any royalties? Thanks for the info (I'm not desperate).
