Super Mario Bros. X Forums

For some reason I couldn't login on my school, and after several times trying to login the following question displayed:

Name one of the newcomers for the Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 3DS/Wii U.

That's something not everybody knows, in fact, it's not something everybody should know to begin with. Questions like these lead somebody to search for them when if they already know it they could just type it. If you guys plan to make a question make one that doesn't necessarily imply searching for it.

Those questions exist to prevent spam. I don't see the problem.

He was talking more about the content of the question not the question itself. To be honest I kind of agree that the question should pertain more to common knowledge like a reCAPTCHA answer or something since you could script an answer to the question anyway.

Just my two cents.

Agreed. the question isn't that nice. Tinypic has good anti spam.

Yeah, GhostHawk pretty much explained my issue with the question. Something like "Type what you see" or similar should work.

I would like to add the question is pretty outdated bc if you name one of the newest newcomer it doesn't accept the answer.
