Very Happy

Why don't you make up your own questions?

Are you planing on selling this app or otherwise monetizing it (e.g. putting ads in it)?

No, unless I will add in leaderboards and chat, which will require funding from a small ad. It's a Windows 8 app, so there is a lot of space, and if the ad exists for my db services, it will be at the leaderboards and chat area.

I do not have the time as this app is coming out in 4 days. It's for a programming contest.

I will talk to the DWITE staff and try to have them agree upon a license. But I make no guarantees and it may take longer then 4 days.

Thanks I will use them for now and credit you, since i am releasing tommorow. I won't have ads, and if I do I would make my own questions, but that would be months from now.

Sounds good. I actually recommend you make your own questions in the future (not that I am against you using our questions in any way, but its just a lot more rewarding).
