This or That Quizzes are AWFUL!

I concur. Sometimes the answers are not accurate. I've pointed that out now 2x to Rewards Support. For example, today = city populations. The question was not specific enough, so it can be open to variances. In this case, was it just the city or metro. BING pulled up old data on some cities and others 2020.
The quiz creator needs to double check for accuracy, otherwise, don't penalize people, just have it for fun. The other option is to have a quiz that has an absolute answer. If there are variances, that's not good.

Yet, another, terrible and tedious This or That quiz. Several of the questions had more than one answer that is correct. Of course, This or That being so terrible, it penalizes the user for a correct answer. Once more Microsoft is not listening (yes, I provided feedback via the Feedback button). Seems to me Microsoft is no longer interested in what their community of supporters have to say.
From now on, I'm using Google to look for the answers. No need to give Bing any additional clicks since they penalize us unnecessarily.

Hi HeyU-notU-U, as I've addressed in this thread before, the best way to obtain the answers for the quiz is to use Bing, since the answers are based on the Bing search results.
Thank you for continuing to submit feedback while things don't change overnight each piece of feedback delivered to our Microsoft Rewards Team shapes how they think about the Quizzes they publish.
While I understand your frustrations about this situation, I've reviewed how to best answer This or That Quiz questions and how to properly submit feedback. As this thread is turning into more of a complaint thread, I'm going to lock it down. Please continue to reach out to Rewards support for these situations, as that would be the correct channel to support this. Thanks for understanding!
