noobs

i came across an australian kids educational game show this morning. in the one segment which i saw, the kids were supposed to fill in 4 blanks in a sentence with several choices available.

the kids were about 10 years old, and they had to drag the answers into the blanks on their individual computers.

after a while, i realised they were all just trying their luck and dragging the answers one by one, since only the correct answers would stay in the blanks. the wrong answers would jump back to the original positions.

one kid was randomly dragging the answers, and even repeatedly dragged in the wrong answers. it's like if you're gonna be guessing, at least do it systematically right?

besides, the question honestly wasn't really difficult at all, even for a 10-year-old.

and since it's a game show, i'd assume the participants should have been at least above average in order to take part, but they were all relying on trial and error, and not were even very efficient at doing that.
