What is the Daily Trivia Challenge?
On May 4th 2024 JetPunk introduced the Daily Trivia Challenge. Every Day 10 Trivia Questions are asked, with a choice between 4 possible answers for each, with only 1 of them being correct.
The Stats
Now while the DTC obviously pushes you to be fast, as it rewards you with a time bonus, we will just be focusing on the number of correct answers here, both because I think it's more interesting, and data for average points isn't available.
Average # Correct for 2024
6.5/10
That means 65% of the time the correct answer is guessed, since there are 4 possible options with only 1 being correct choosing completely randomly gives you 25% odds of choosing correctly.
So JetPunkers exceed the odds by 40%
Well at least y'all aren't just picking randomly.

Easiest DTC
Starting with the Easiest one, October 26th
Let's look at the 3 easiest questions of this one:
• >90% guess rate: 4 questions
• >80% guess rate: 8 questions• >60% guess rate: 9 questions

Every single questions was guessed correctly by more than half of people, with 8 of them being guessed over 80% of the time. This one only had 2 challenging ones it seems, with the hardest one being:

Outro
That's all I have for now, how easy/hard did you find these 2 DTCs?
Personally for me, October 26th is my 3rd Highest all-time score, and my Highest of 2024. (9,886 points)
While November 12th was certainly hard for me, it doesn't land in my bottom 5, all-time or for 2024. (4,927 points)
Hope everyone keeps having fun with the DTC and keeps gaining random trivia knowledge!
