Subject: Commission VII - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Feb 01 10

Welcome to Quiz Commission #7!
I'm that excited.

This one, as I've said, will throw authors for a loop. The theme behind this one is 'Doubling Up'. Everyone who wants to participate in this commission will need to create two titles for players. All players will also need to construct two quizzes as a result of this commission, so if you're not up for the challenge, you may want to sit this one out.

In addition, both titles need to be doubles of one another. For example, if your first title is "Much Ado About Salt", the second could suitably be "Much Ado About Pepper" to match. Another example could be "One is the Loneliest Number" paired with "Two Can Be As Bad as One". There is plenty of room to be clever. ;)

All participants will need to be signed up by Saturday, February 6th. Everybody who wishes to participate may post here, but once you do this, please send me a PM with your titles. Please do not mention your topics or titles on this board.

As usual, you must have at least a few quizzes online (two or three) to participate, and players who are still working on quizzes for other commissions (not including the 'Queen', 'Stepping Up', or other challenges) are not able to join in on this one until their submissions show up in the queue.

Good luck to all!

Commission in Progress:
Bulleted quizzes have obtained the Editor's Choice Award!
Authors underlined with each pair of quizzes submitted the titles.

Oh, count me in :p

I'll have to think about my titles though, will give them to you when I think them up!

(p.s. is each person going to be completing a 'pair' of quizzes, or just two at random from all the titles you get?)

I'm in for this one too. I'll send my titles on later today. Interesting twist on this, but looking forward to it (nervous laughter) - I think!

Count me in too, please. I have an idea that's too long for a regular title but would work if it was split in half.

By the way, did anyone else's brains immediately leap out to "It was the Best of Times" and "It was the Worst of Times" when they saw this topic? Maybe it was just me?

I'll be in it!
My Queen quiz is coming along nicely and I hope to have it done by the weekend. So I should be able to give this challenge my undivided attention.

Rowena8482

I am still thinking! Have come up with a couple of possible pairs, but am hoping for some seriously good inspiration for something special to strike....
Are one word titles okay Kyle? And does anyone remember the character limit on a template title by any chance? I have one long pair and one short pair under consideration :-D...

Reply #15. Feb 02 10, 5:01 PM

guitargoddess

50 characters, I believe
