I would prefer the answers on some page in the magazine. Please. QRs are modern but not all of us are.

Agree with other comments. I paid my dues. I am completely computer literate. But don’t want the ads that QR Readers impose. Don’t want my email address on yet another spam list. I get enough already. I want to play games. I don’t want you playing games with me.

Some of us are elderly and don’t wish to go on our phones just to play games!

Yes, where are the answers to the quiz? Why don’t you just put it like on the last page of the magazine? So annoying!

This was a fun quiz. Being from Waco Texas I knew about Dr Pepper already. BTW, there’s no period after Dr in the drink’s name.

Answers are posted and easily accessible. If you got here by the web link in the print magazine or any other method, the answer is revealed when you click on Reveal Answer. It pops up directly under those words. Seems reasonably simple. For those that might be having problems with the web answer showing; 1=Dr Pepper, 2=Coca-Cola, 3=Texas, 4=Shirley Temple.
This was an easy quiz, got ’em all right! Do I get a gold star??

I’ve been a member for several years.. I don’t know how to access any games. My solitaire updated on my phone and I don’t like it.. I just wanted a classic game to play. Is there one that I can access on the AMAC Games?

I should have remembered Dr Pepper as I was stationed @ 2 bases in TX; I picked Pepsi v. Coke (I’m a Moxie drinker, then Pepsi if I can’t get Moxie) – I drank Coke back in the 50’s; I should have remembered TX because of Dr Pepper; my only right answer was #4 – Shirley Temple. Hope my other games go better than this.
