HQ Trivia is 18 questions for the finale

Get a grip yourself. Just because we're used to this kind of treatment doesn't mean we shouldn't call it out for exactly what it is.

Instead of an 18 question game with up to 13 throwaway questions because of free passes and multiple extra lives they could just have a regular 12 question game with up to 7 throwaway questions. Or maybe even a 12 question game with no throwaway questions at all? As it stands they're just piling on the bullshit and wasting everyone's time in hopes of cashing in on idiots who pay for extra lives. Which might be for the best if no one will sponsor the game anymore, and hell, why would they? The fatigue from it all is only helping to drive away the people HQ is desperate to keep.

Pushing people to play every single show and buy points multipliers to get to level 10 to make the final game easier only for them to make it harder to compensate for them making it easier is a bait and switch no matter how many times they do it. While I partially expected this because of their past bad behavior, I also thought that maybe increasing the standard game to 15 questions meant they wouldn't add even more questions for the season finale. I guess I never should have doubted that they would take the lowest possible road.

The bottom line is that I'm finally sick of it all. Maybe that doesn't mean anything because maybe the rumored changes to the structure of season 4 will revitalize my interest. That's the best case scenario as far as I'm concerned. But if HQ Trivia is just the same old, same old come tomorrow, I'm unsubscribing. The passion is gone.
