An Interview with Bob Hagh of Shelton, Connecticut |
|
Tell us a little bit about yourself... | |
My name is Bob Hagh, I am 22 years old and and I currently attend Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven, CT. I am heading into my fifth and final year where I will get degrees in Journalism and Computer Science. During my time at SCSU, I have been a member of the radio station, WSIN, where I have hosted several game shows, a music countdown show, a talk show and a news program. Technology and media is basically my life, and I hope to pursue a career that combines both. | |
Describe your interest in trivia... | |
I am a huge game show fan, so I guess trivia runs in my blood! I have been on two television game shows: "Chain Reaction" on the Game Show Network and I was part of "America's Team" on the syndicated game show "Trivial Pursuit: America Plays." I was also given the chance to be a rehearsal contestant for the CBS game show "Power of 10." Like I said, game shows are all around me and play a part in my life. With that knowledge, I enjoy writing trivia questions for fun and I play lots of trivia games with friends and family. I also have written trivia for a game Web site a few years back, where some of the questions I submitted were showcased. I even "host" my custom-made games on different forums around the net that incorporate my trivia questions for game play. |

What are some of your favorite iPhone apps? | |
My favorite apps include "That AIn't It!," "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire," "1 vs. 100," "Trism," "Yahtzee" and "Arcade Bowling." As you can see, trivia is the winner here, but I like "Arcade Bowling" because it's a classic game we have all played in our lives, especially as kids in an arcade. I also enjoy puzzle games, or any game that requires me to think about my next move. | |
What's your favorite category in That Ain't It!? | |
My favorite category is "Science." As with one of my majors (Computer Science), I had to take biology classes, physics classes and a lot of math classes. I just like learning about the world and how it works. It's all around us! | |
What's your least favorite category in That Ain't It!? | |
My least favorite category is "Sports." In the earlier stages of the game, the sports questions are more "term" based and not people-related, so I am more confident in those questions. I am not that good with figures in the sports world, but I get lucky sometimes. | |
What new features would you most like to see added to That Ain't It!? | |
The game flows very nicely as it is. I enjoy the online submission of scores and the two different game modes. One feature that I would like to see is maybe a multiplayer option. I have noticed a lot of apps are now taking advantage of two iPhones placed side-by-side so that two people can play a game at one time. Other than that, the game has a lot to offer and I do enjoy the updates of questions to keep it fresh. | |
