How do you remember to play every day?

It's habit forming. Either just before I go to work, or just after I get back home. My attendance is not perfect, but it seems to be good enough.

& there's still time to get in on the 1st day of the month!

yep, it's definitely habit forming...i either play right before i go to bed or when i'm eating my cereal in the morning...but i usually forget if i'm not at home (or if the power goes out for 17 days like during Ike last year)
 
aka Integral.

So after I started participating in this quiz I thought it would be fun to set one up for Physicsforums were I am a mod.

It took me several months of trying to figure out that I needed different user names for each quiz and yet another for the main funtriva site.

I have since discovered that the comments box will let you see the comments for the quiz you are looking at. However, if you make a comment it appears not in the quiz you are looking at but in the one you are logged into. So all too frequently, when I check in during the day to see if I am hanging in the top 10, I will not be aware of where I am logged in. So if I jump in and make a comment it will show up in the wrong quiz.

When I started the PF quiz It was great to play with a bunch of noob's. I was a consistent winner for about 6 months, unfortunately as time passed the speed demons learned the questions and technique needs. Now I find myself in the same position there as here, usually a contender but rarely a winner. Give me a break, I am an old fart so am just slow.

Has anyone else noticed that we do not see nearly as much question repetition as a year ago?
 
It's part of my routine at school, M-F, but I rarely play on weekends from home. The latency with satellite kills my times.
