I had a quick look at what this QuizUp is and it sounds like a fun idea. I might contribute later, but I'm a bit worried about some of the questions thrown in so far. I mean, just imagine some new fan to the Mass Effect series getting some of those questions and being utterly stumped. That's no fun. And even me, having played all games dozens of times, including all story DLC, can't answer all of those. Like the amount of name space on the Normandy's memorial wall - how are you supposed to know that? It seems unnecessarily specific and I don't think it's a good question. Or most of nokori3byo's questions revolving around ambient dialogue. How about relevant lore questions, or historic ones? So far I only really approve of congokong and MrFob's questions, to be honest.
An example of something that most Mass Effect players would know, yet might require some thinking:
Which of the following conflicts is the most recent?
1. The Krogan Rebellion
2. The Morning War*
3. The Unification War
4. The Rachni Wars
(edit: changed 'oldest' to 'most recent' since Turian history isn't referred to a whole lot.)
That's a way to provide a question that doesn't require intimate knowledge of the smallest of details, while (hopefully) having you consider the universe of Mass Effect at the same time. I don't know, that just seems like more fun to me, personally.
I mean no offense with this, just a friendly nudge to think about what you're contributing

I don't have a smart phone myself, but I'm just imagining what it would be like to look up Mass Effect on this quiz app thing and get some borderline impossible questions. Where's the fun in that?

Yeah, it's so selfish of him, reaping all those non-existant rewards for himself.
