Anyone else feel guilty about gaining rank because of the trivia game? A lost a little of that guilt though when it told me I got something wrong, when I know I didn't ;P

I just played for the first time today~! No guilt... haha - MonteKristal  308.7 #567 12:22PM
No - Katrayher  739.0 #138 12:23PM
I don't feel guilty! I only play to unlock new music lol - Madysmommy  151.5 #2263 12:30PM
I got one wrong that I was sure was right too! - JessicaRabbit33  667.9 #156 12:33PM
Ahhhhh......NO! - SUUZinOC  715.1 #140 12:35PM
Same here madysmommy. Now I just have Murphy fail to unlock. I just worry if i get high enough when I accidentally hit the report button, it'll actually do it lol - cesium55  529.7 #216 1:20PM
and so goes the days of walking around the park putting in time for points.. - Dave  8637.4 #2 1:29PM
 I think people that joined yesterday have already passed my rank. - mozbaby  132.2 #2559 1:30PM
Dave  - iFramedRogerRabbit  1956.2 #36 1:38PM
Sorry to hear that mozb . Wait, I've passed you too . I know it's not about rank... Really I do, but I feel a little less legit now lol - cesium55  529.7 #216 1:40PM
I find it funny that banned people are playing the Triva still - Dave  8637.4 #2 1:51PM
Really?  guess they like trivia and don't care about rank - cesium55  529.7 #216 1:57PM
I have mixed emotions about it, i like the point boost but at the same time I feel it makes those points mean less - Pixarprincess  531.4 #215 2:06PM
But should they mean a lot? I love it because I now have all the music & all but one background. That's the only part of the # I care about. I'd play trivia without the points bump! It's just fun and earn the rest here & my 1-2 trips a year to the parks. - ythdudette  340.0 #431 3:15PM
It wont let me sign in so i can't play :( - scoot  279.0 #736 3:18PM
I'm new and I totally see where you guys are coming from. I'm not even sure what the point of rank is.... - Squirtortue  311.1 #552 5:33PM
I don't play cause of that reason. I wasn't around when MW first started so I want to experience just like the "OG'S" did in the days of yore. @Dave I can't wait to go to park just to enter wait times and take live pics. - Cricket  224.1 #1305 5:41PM
nobody went just to put times in..its nice to walk around and enjoy the parks, just an added thing to do by putting times in.. - Dave  8637.4 #2 5:44PM
If it actually gave me the points maybe but the last 3 times I played no point transfer so idk lol - Krisseee  22.7 #4834 5:50PM
It's funny because for a while I didn't play then I played because I like trivia and I felt like other people were getting higher points who didn't put in the work... Btw that is my bitterness showing! But I do love trivia :) and have learned not to care so much about others rank because it doesn't really affect me so much, eh? :) - Mouseketeer.for.Short  335.3 #449 5:51PM
I don't care about the rank. The rank for me is a game for my wife and I. I'm beating her. But I help when needed to my best of knowledge. I have done some nice in park RAKs. Also met some great MWers. - Chumash28  763.8 #130 5:57PM
@Dave ok phrased it wrong. Meant like it be cool to go to park and just be able to enter wait times. Be part of that whole experience aside from enjoying park which gies without saying. - Cricket  224.1 #1305 6:03PM
I appreciate your spirit, cricket - BLG  1049.5 #82 6:09PM
i also did not mean for my comment to come across as wanting lots of points or that rank is especially important. my point was more that it sort of makes preventative measures like not allowing people to txt till 10 seem pointless. i mean if you know alot that could be like one day on trivia. im not opposed to getting points for trivia, i guess i just feel it goes up too fast. entering wait times is important to keep the app going and up to date, where as the trivia is just for fun. i hope that made sense. - Pixarprincess  531.4 #215 6:14PM
I'm with you Cricket. I like the trivia and get competitive with that. I don't even care for the rank, but it just seems easier than how it originally was where you had to post quality content or wait times. - cesium55  529.7 #216 6:26PM
We have to deal with social ranking on a daily basis: how much money we have, what kind of car we drive, what schools we've been to, and who's who at work. Disneyland is great because we are all the same rank; we're kids! In my opinion, the rank thing is silly; I love trivia, I love Disneyland, and I love MW so I don't feel guilty. For those that hold rank near and dear, maybe just having a separate ranking for your trivia score (like Buzz or TSMM) could solve this? - jiminyclint  146.4 #2341 6:53PM
I don't feel guilty because I can't go to the parks as much as I used to to be able to put in wait times, and it takes foreverrrr to earn points in the lounge. But I do think that wait times should get more points than the trivia - TickledTink  352.8 #406 7:03PM
I don't have facebook and never will so it's a good thing rank doesn't really matter to me. The only bad thing about having low rank is people assume I haven't been around very long but that's ok, I'm mostly a lurker anyway. - Hesatalkintome  26.8 #4531 7:12PM
No guilt, because everyone can do it. And it's free. So it's not like buying rank. - GusGus  776.2 #124 7:14PM
My phones gps and MW don't get along, so as often as i am actually in the park, I can not contribute to wait times. But honestly, as far as rank goes, I'm on android so really doesn't matter for me - 415beachgirl  469.0 #259 7:15PM
I really think wait time points should be bumped up...are we not helping the app more by doing that than by playing a game? - toph  2398.6 #26 7:15PM
Exactly, toph! - Hesatalkintome  26.8 #4531 7:17PM
Or maybe game points reduced. Game points are very fast and easy compared to ride times. - Tom  3846.8 #7 7:25PM
Or that too Tom...I don't see how walking and entering in times doing the circuit for a few hours vs pushing a button should be anywhere near the same point value... - toph  2398.6 #26 7:29PM
I dont stress about rank( been here a long time) but was bummed recently when I wanted to report but didnt have enough points. - Dizkid  284.2 #704 7:37PM
Excellent point toph! I second it - cesium55  529.7 #216 7:38PM
Dizkid I would gladly give you my reporting privileges - toph  2398.6 #26 7:40PM
Maybe I feel like I'm cheating. And maybe I feel some people have ulterior motives and would abuse reporting functions because they're still inexperienced with the lounge but get upset. BTW, this isn't in reference to you, Dizkid... just in general. Maybe I'm just crazy. lol :/ - cesium55  529.7 #216 7:43PM
I completely agree Tom and toph, I worked my butt off for my points, and people like you guys REALLY have! I always think about coaster getting so many points when it was like 100 times slower, at the beginning. Yep trivia should be worth way less, or I should start playing so I can keep up lol - Robynlaurel  650.6 #162 7:43PM
Accurate wait times are still the heart of this app!!!! - Robynlaurel  650.6 #162 7:45PM
I agree with Tim and toph! And dizkid looks like you are only a bit away from being a reporter! :) - Mouseketeer.for.Short  335.3 #449 7:45PM
Exactly Robyn.... I only been in the parks once since getting this app so that took me a bit to go up 5-6 points. - cesium55  529.7 #216 7:46PM
Thank you Tom and toph that's exactly my point. Times and contributing to the lounge help make the app better! - Pixarprincess  531.4 #215 7:47PM
I agree with Tom & toph, how much a wait time is worth should be evaluated, definitely should be more than the trivia. - LBChica  1500.2 #52 7:48PM
That's how I feel Pixarprincess. I think that's what I was getting at when I originally posed the question - cesium55  529.7 #216 7:49PM
Appreciate the offer Toph. No worries I just love the app especially since I cant get to Disneyland as much as I would like. - Dizkid  284.2 #704 7:50PM
I like the trivia and getting points while living so far away, but I have to agree with Tom & toph. The point values need to be adjusted. - DisneyPhotoFan  886.8 #100 8:01PM
That's exactly what I was trying to say@ Tom &@ Toph. Heart of this app is wait times. U should get more out if it personal wise to. Like @RobN said work ur but for those points. Dont get me wrong trivia games are cool but I'd feel better knowing I got too 100 " on my own". - Cricket  224.1 #1305 8:15PM
Great ideas! Maybe even make the rank only visible to the individual when they click on MyMW. What is the purpose of everybody else needing to see it? - jiminyclint  146.4 #2341 8:15PM
Tom and Toph FTW - Mrsblue  692.4 #145 8:21PM
You all should feel guilty!! I've been on here FOREVER and haven't even been able to reach 100 yet. All my points have been earned the original way BTW...you know...LNC, H3D banter and many "Hi!" and "Welcome " lol. - chsrkat77  244.0 #1062 8:29PM
I'm amazed at the debates that occur over such trivial things I mean really.REALLY? - CaptnSparrow  559.6 #198 8:32PM
Was that pun intended @CaptnSparrow2 (trivial things)? Very funny, good on ya, LOL. - jiminyclint  146.4 #2341 8:40PM
