same behaviour for todays game. upon entering the (correct) answer, it said "wrong answer", but when logging back in, it says "your answer was correct". not sure if i actually DID get my POE though

At least leaving and returning to the site resets the quiz, but it says 'incorrect' each time.

spoiler for screenshot quiz

The dropdown suggestion list offered 01 version of the game’s name. Only one with an apostrophe.

Ugh! I just hope the today’s Abandonia Daily Screenshot Quiz does not get stuck again in the same screenshot of this damn Game like it happened quite recently for several days!

Like today’s Screenshot, this Quiz Error gives the impression that Quiz Player is falling in a bottomless cliff / pit... Kind of Falling off a Cliff dream?

The character falling into the pit is symbolism for us attempting to guess the right answer

Let’s hope Quiz Players do not have this kind of nightmare (or bad dream) today (in today’s Quiz)... *shrug*

Question

Fortunately, the Quiz System rarely shows the previous day’s Quiz answer incorrectly... That’s what happened on 11/06/2019 and also on 12/12/2019.

Well, anyway, even if the System incorrectly shows the Quiz answer, but you still earn your precious PoE, I think that’s what matters... Right?

There's an issue with the quiz with the child and the Stop sign screenshot; I wanted to make a pun, but it would involve part of the answer. The quiz also resets if you click 'back' then navigate back to the home page. The answer isn't coming up when typed either, missing three letters standing for an abbreviation.

Very interesting! If I remember about this, I can try this the next time the Screenshot from this game appears again!

When?

EDIT:

PS: I think I know what the pun you wanted to make...

I can post the pun or yourself after the next Quiz starts!

Nope, my pun was "There seems to be a 'Mix-Up' with the quiz". My puns aren't quite that subtle, and it was literally part of the answer.

This technique seems to (sometimes) work only when the quiz has an 'owie'. I try it every time it does happen, which thankfully isn't a lot; I really love the quiz.
