I was beginning to think I would not get another one of these.

ZCaveman gave some good directions on how you can play to in these tournaments. https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...757-post4.html You are up against people from all over the world as well as sometimes from here in the Villages.

What's to prevent people from using Google or Wikipedia?

It is a timed event. The faster you play the better point count.

If you looked up the answers you would probably lose out to your opponent.

Besides, it is free and there is no prize so why not just give it a guess if you don't know the answer.

These are timed Tournaments. You lose a lot of points if you Google or Wiki. The very fast people can answer 10 questions in 20 seconds or so. 20 in 50 seconds or so. I am no where near that fast. You have to speed read and hope you do not miss the "NOT" that is sometimes in these questions.

There are lots of Beatles questions in many FunTrivia Quizzes. http://www.funtrivia.com/ql.cfm?cat=1610 You can Google and Wiki for these, at least, the untimed ones.
