What is Crowdini?

Crowdini is a question and answer game. We ask you to answer one question a day and give you points based on how your answer compares to the majority answer.

We have incorporated Steemit in a new innovative way. Read more about Crowdini and how we have incorporated Steemit in our intro post here.

At the end of the game the top 3 in points split 90% of the prize pool and all other players who voted on every question for that game will split 10% of the prize pool.

It is designed to be something you can do in a few seconds a day but hopefully sparks conversation and thought.

I actually was watching live TV coverage when the Second plane hit the tower. Did not realise, at that time, that there was a second plane.

I prefer not to talk about it but I will say I heard/saw it and that is how I learned about it

I was in a math class and heard rumours from other classmates; on my spare period I went across to the mall to Radio Shack and they had it on TV.

I was in 5th grade, and my teacher got ushered out of class, then came back to deliver the news.

I found out when I turned on the TV but I believe my boyfriend had called me first from the airport as he was supposed to fly to Nevada on business! (I can’t quite recall which came first). I wasn’t working at the time and was home that early morning. Most likely folks were in school or just getting into the office at that time, and first heard about it by word of mouth. I wouldn’t think there would have been a few a lot of TVs in schools or at work in those days, but I could be wrong.

At home, parents watching TV in silence with 9/11 coverage on, see the second plane hit the building, ask which Die Hard movie this is.

I was in my youngest daughter's third grade classroom and they were just finishing up the Pledge of Alliegance. After that, the teacher always turned on the TV so they could watch ten minutes of the news and write in their daily journals something they learned on the news station. Midway through the ten minutes the news flashed on the TV screen showing the second plane hitting into the tower.

Had just gotten back to my off campus house from my Corporate Finance class that let out early. Was wearing my Baseball HoF class of 2000 induction shirt and shorts that could pack themselves into the pocket when I turned the news on. My friend Mike came to my room and I told him the WTC was on fire from a plane crash. We saw the second one hit and then the towers fall on TV. Surreal moment.

I was a freshman in high school and waiting for my mom and watching TV with my brother. She came out of her room and said something bad had happened in New York and we should change the channel.

I was a senior in HS. I worked in our TV studio to help put on our morning announcements, which aired live everyday at 9:25. Shortly before while we were preparing to go on the air, our TV teacher burst out of his office and ran back to the tape decks where we received satellite feeds from news stations like CNN to record some of it so that we had some footage to air during our announcements.

Allen was always the jokester, so when he walked in the break room and said "A plane just ran into the World Trade Center" no one took him seriously. He left and came back after a few minutes and said, "Another plane he the other tower of the WTC." That's when we took him seriously and all gathered around the radio...
