Introducing Week 1 of Steemit Quiz 2025 and the 3 rounds that we'll be kicking off with.

Separator-green.png

It is great to see so much interest with the idea of running a weekly quiz here on Steemit and to see so many people interested in joining.

Within the 200+ comments, some teams were formed and whilst I think I've captured most of the teams created, it would be really helpful if you could please:

📝 State your team name and team members in the comments below

For those that haven't been able to join a team, you are welcome to play along and if you wish to join or create a team at a later date, your points will be combined for the total, annual score. Of course, you can continue to go solo and try to beat the best of them.

Everybody is invited to answer the questions, whether you're a super serious quiz master or just wanting to have a bit of fun!

If you've stumbled across this post and don't know what I'm talking about, please visit my original post -

❓ Steemit Quiz 2025

Summary of the key points:

  • Each week, on a Sunday (UK Time), I will announce the Rounds for the forthcoming week. Each week, there will be 3 Rounds of 10 Questions.

  • The questions will appear in the comments of Sunday's Announcement Post at random intervals.

  • For each question, each team member is entitled to 1 attempt at the answer. DO NOT EDIT YOUR ANSWER!

  • In total, the prize pool could be in the region of $1,500 over the course of the quiz.

Please read the full post for the underlying details.

❓ Week 1's Rounds

Within the comments below, I've created 3 Rounds and within each Round, I'll share 10 Questions which will appear sporadically.

I originally suggested that I would ask the questions over Monday to Saturday but I'd like to leave Saturday free to allow users to try and answer any remaining questions.

Therefore, all of the questions will be added between Monday and Friday. (I won't try to be clever with this, I'll go sequentially from Round 1, Question 1 through to Round 3, Question 10.)

Once I start to collate the scores on the following Sunday, I'll put a padlock sign (🔒) to indicate that no further answers will be accepted for any unanswered questions.

Be sure to reply to the question comment with your answer. Any answers placed elsewhere won't be registered.

So this week's Rounds are:

Round 1 - 🗽 Famous Landmarks 🗿

Round 2 - 🔗 Linking The United States of America image.png

Round 3 - 🎶 Musical Dinosaurs 🦕

If anything is unclear, please ask any questions and have any discussions in the comments below. Please keep the comments outside of the "Rounds" though.

💃 Have Fun

St Paul’s Cathedral, London, England

Catedral de San Pablo, Londres, Inglaterra

Llegué 3 minutos tarde, jejejeje

Getting closer 😉

Congratulations I missed again 😭😭😭

This one's tough though, I had to do a bit of research😅

I was hoping it would be tougher... can you divulge how you solved this one?

You should consider touch locations / buildings of some small countries , so everyone get some time to search.

Don't worry, I've included a couple of more difficult ones. I'm going to remove and rethink the easier ones though.

Ok am waiting for that

I simply searched famous cathedral in the world

I should probably change the round to "Obscure Landmarks" 😆

You still have the rest of the year to fine-tune the difficulty level 😆

🤔

This is just the placeholder for the round. I'll add the questions underneath with something along the lines of:

Question 1

Some question about a landmark.


I'll mute your comment to keep this area of the quiz clean. The questions will start in about 19 hours from now.

🗽Estatua de la Libertad, Nueva York, EEUU
🗿Moáis, Monolitos de la isla de Pascua, Chile

Round 1 - Question 1

Taj Mahal located in India

Taj mahal india

@henryclive has already answered correctly.

Better luck next time

Well done team mate
We'll try to be more alert next time

Hay search the image , we have time now,no one reply yet

Taj Mahal located in India

Round 1 - Question 2

Sydney Opera House in Australia

Too easy?

Apparently :-))

Sydney Opera

@henryclive beat you to it again.

My bad luck again 😞

Sydney Opera House, Australia

@henryclive was quickest.

Better luck next time

El primer emoji representa la estatua de la libertad ubicado en Nueva York estados unidos

That would be correct and valid - it’s just the emoji I used to make things more visually appealing.

I’ll add the questions under each round - starting tomorrow.

Round 1 - Question 4

Panteón nacional, Caracas, Venezuela

Sacred Heart Cathedral , Lahore

❌ Sorry, not this time.

I can see the similarity for sure.

I live in Lahore so my first thought go there, it's ok , hope I will win next time. Still I have hope not disappointed. 😁

Round 1 - Question 5

Näsinneula Tower, Tampere, Finland

I can't remember if you and @ady-was-here have a team name?

we did, Oops-a-Lot

Missed this.
Phew!

Kyoto Tower Japan

❌ Sorry, incorrect this time.

Menara Kuala Lumpur Tower, Malaysia

❌ Sorry, also incorrect.

Torre-mirador Nasinneula, en el parque de atracciones Särkänniemi, Finlandia

⌛ 11 minutes this time 😉

Round 1 - Question 6

The Women's Titanic Memorial of Washington, DC

I almost gave up on this one. I had to repeatedly tweak my keywords—from "famous statues" to "lesser-known statues," and finally to "list of statues in every country." 😄

I'm pleased that it took longer 😅

I'm worried that you'll get at least 2 of the last 3 too quickly. I might change them this morning 😆

I might change them this morning

by all means 😁

Titanic Memorial
Washington, D.C., USA

It looks like I'm a bit late, haha

⌛ Sadly, yes. Well done for getting it correct!

Christ the Redeemer

❌ It's not Christ the Redeemer

Christo de la Concordia

❌ I’m afraid that’s not correct

Round 1 - Question 7

Brandenburg Gate in Berlin

@wakeupkitty
@huzaifanaveed1
@goodybest
@inspiracion
It turns out, we’ve already missed 7 questions.

I already have questions for @the-gorilla at this stage. How do you actually imagine this? Do you expect people to literally live under your post since you don’t tag participants? And there's also the factor of different time zones: for some people, it’s night, and they are sleeping. I definitely don’t have time to 'camp' under someone’s post waiting for new questions :-D Today, I remembered about it because I was still curious to see how the game starts, and now I see that the rules are poorly thought out. Maybe I’m wrong and misunderstood something? That’s why I tagged other participants to hear your impressions.

Round 1 - Question 8

Beijing National Stadium, China

I'd hoped this one would be more difficult.

It was though...until I added the magic word🫢

Yas Viceroy Hotel, Abu Dhabi

@henryclive has got the correct answer

Great Wall of China

@henryclive has got the correct answer

Round 2 - 🔗 Linking The United States of America image.png

This round is all about places in The United States of America and what links / connects them.

Round 3 - 🎶 Musical Dinosaurs 🦕

In this round, I will play the introduction to a piece of music.

You need to identify The Title of the Song and The Artist / Band behind it.

Waiting for the piece of music

Checking the feed just in the moment the quiz is published has to be a very good omen… 😁

See you later - I have to read the article and questions… 😉

I had planned for a different topic to kick things off but I'm dependent upon a 3rd party for some of the questions 😉

I'm regretting saying that I'll ask the first question tomorrow. I want to ask it now 😆

Okay, I save my edit (it’s not forbidden for a common comment, is it?) that would have said: „Argh, no question yet.“

I‘m sad that you don’t ask now but glad at the same time: The evidence of NO corruption… 🥳

Have fun, too!

NO edits. NO mistakes. NO errors. NO rules. NO clues. NO idea what comes next. NO idea what I'm doing. NO idea at all.

I'm inviting @tronbeary to join.

Please. I need to be free.

You are free not to answer though your label says: NO Freedom 🤔 How about: NO need to?

Wanna join NO team? We've got NO chance. We will have NO guess since we are so slow. We can have NO guess in a cage, there is NO need for NO freedom... 🤪

NO tron, NO beary... 🤷‍♀️

NO slow, very slow old woman joining your quiz... 😂
Gosh, "they" are so quick...

SO quick. TOO quick. I need to make it harder. Somehow.

Poor Beary.

NO rules... You listed a few

There are lots of them...

I was hoping that I would be the most disorganized in the team and someone would remind me about it on January 5th, but it turned out to be a little different.

I suggest the team name "Inspired" (because it was Flori who initiated this). So, here we are, as Flori formulated it 4 days ago:
@wakeupkitty
@huzaifanaveed1

Hi, @inspiracion. I think it would be better to create a Discord group for our team, so we can deliberate there before finalizing our answers. Team, what do you think?

I'd love to give you some tactical suggestions but that would be unfair 😜

Is there any way we get a notification of your posts and comments? Half of my time is spent in the hospital and I mostly forget to check Steemit on my own 😬😬😭

Perhaps you could ask your patients to refresh the page and let you know when I post something? Do doctors still have pagers? They could page you.

😭😭🤣

And I'll truly appreciate it if you do 😎

You are on Telegram so what is the idea? I happily step out of the group

To clarify: It's one attempt per team member. Not one attempt per team so as a team, you get 5 chances at the correct answer.

Oh, this is reasonable. But you know the saying: two heads are better than one; in this case, it would be five!

Of course it's a good idea, although I think not everyone on our team has access to Discord.

Anyway, we can each try to answer, it's like 5 attempts if each of us does it (that would be some strategy hahaha)..🙂

An Inspired team name. Good luck!

Sorry, chaotic crazy artist and freewriter here and freedomlover @inspiracion. I am bad if it comes to dates and time

@steemcurator08 Haha, I’m also a "person of chaos." But from time to time, I get into a "blissful" state and systematize myself for a set period, like 21 days. During that time, I gain a lot of benefits and growth, but I can't maintain it for long—it gradually becomes morally unbearable for me.

@goodybest

I think it would be better to create a Discord group for our team, so we can deliberate there before finalizing our answers. Team, what do you think?

I think it's a rational idea to have a closer connection for making joint decisions. I use Telegram, not Discord. If everyone in the team is on Telegram, we can create a private group there. If most of you are only on Discord, I will join you there (I have an account, but it's inactive because I find Discord functionally inconvenient).

Okay, golden-rain, I also have a telegram, but let's hear from other members; we can then decide.

@wakeupkitty No need to worry, the idea was to do this for fun when you could...

So far the round has been very easy... If you can see it. Although I have not participated because I had not been able to arrive on time... So theoretically, you and me, we are just as clueless hahaha😅

I didn't see anything if it comes to solving something only muted comments.
I asked around, no response. So far explaining and team building
@ wakeupkitty

Edit: just checked this is an aweful lot of scrolling checking, gettingthrough all the comments it's not doable for me. If I accidentally see it I can answer. It looks as if it is the-gorilla x henryclive.

Excellent. Thank you.

Oh, I thought I'd start solving your quizzes now. I will have to wait until tomorrow. 😄

Ha ha! Yeah - sorry. Maybe it'll give you a bit of time to do some homework 😅

Maybe I'll change this for Week 2. I see no reason to wait until he day after to start the questions!

Excuse me sir, this is our Just For Fun team, me and @luisito01 @caringmanasseh @muhammad-ahmad @xiao-aine.

The game is about to start, get ready to press the button guys!

Ok

I follow you in the hope to figure out what the idea is. Nice to meet you

Just for fun. Let me know where the button is

👍 I follow you guys l, hope you keep tagging

You know, we're already behind in round 1, maybe we should be a little more focused @luisito01 @caringmanasseh @muhammad-ahmad.

Get ready for round 2 💪🏽

Saludos amigo @the-gorilla a qué hora comienza la según ronda porque me perdí la primera ronda

There will be 10 questions in each round so do not worry if you miss any. I have only shared 5 questions in Round 1 so far.

They are being answered very quickly at the moment!

I don't know how far I will go alone but I will try to get as far as possible, I barely know about this questionnaire which is a bad sign but nothing to lose by trying.

You can dip in and out, answer as many as you can. You can't be eliminated so it'll always be here if you get a free moment.

You could always join a team later if you wish. If you do well, you'll have plenty of invitations 😆

Can we make team

Oh great, if it cheers me up

I think I'll try my luck solo every now and then: Team Raven, so to speak. If I catch me a wingman, I'll let you know ;-)))

👍 You're welcome to update / join a team any time

Oh, we should have invited you to join our team😞 @henryclive suggested inviting you, but I said it might feel awkward for us, as newcomers, to ask you. Plus, I thought that with your move, you wouldn’t have any time for it.

Oh, thank you, thank you: everything is perfect. We're not competitors ;-))

We are The Juggernauts
@ukpono
@marialexandra
@ayesha0018
@khayjhay

This would be both challenging and fun 😊

Listos para comenzar la aventura 😜

Ok I am ready , waiting for next question

Yeah!💃🏽

I will struggle myself until i get a team that we will join heads together to formed one.

Success to everyone and also can't wait to start.

Assalam o alaikum!

@the-gorilla, I was confused and thought best to contact you first. One of my friends wants to introduce himself on steemit.com and I would be his witness. Please suggest me that is it right to do. The person is real and I assure you all his verifications. Also suggestme that how much persons can be verified by me. The account was created in December and he contacted me to be his witness. The acciunt name is @adnanliaqatali. I am waiting for your guidelines in this regard.
Feel free for any other inquiry.
