Subject: Allow Me to Introduce... - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: May 13 13

Recently there have been a number of challenges in which the author is given a title and told to go. It's time to swap an element of this out. I've asked the editors to jump in and give full or partial introductions and your goal is to write a quiz including it in the introduction box. There are thirteen and the fragment must be used in full. If there's enough room you may add more to flesh it out (either before or after); you may not alter the existing text.

All thirteen must be completed. However, we will allow more than one quiz per intro until May 31, so if you're worried about claiming anything before someone else, you have some leeway. If the quiz is not submitted to the queue before the 31st, however, and there's already a quiz online for it, it will no longer count for the challenge. Your name will not be placed with the intro until the quiz is online.

Below are your intros. When your quiz makes it online, it will be added to the main posting. Please make sure to post your quiz title in this thread. Good luck!

    		Kyle please sign me up for:

    "Here are some television shows that were cancelled in their first season and maybe shouldn't have been, and some shows that should have been cancelled before they 'jumped the shark'"

    Since I am limited to 25 questions I might have to skip NBC and (US) FOX network and of course virtually anything from the 1980's.

    player avatar     		Authors can choose any intro-- their name will not be added to the main post (as a sign-up) until the quiz is online. There's no 'dibs' on this one.

    Please also make sure to review the TV category guidelines regarding the length of a quiz before diving into that one. ;)

    player avatar     		Can editors use the intro they suggested? Not that I'm leaping into this one, I have plenty on my plate right now as it is, just wondering in case I am tempted in the future. It seems to me that the answer should be no, just as you can't claim a title you suggest as an Author Challenge.

    		I have a question: Can an author write more than one quiz for this challenge?

    		I'll take "There I was just minding my own business, when out of nowhere..." I should probably kick myself, since I'm dragging my posterior with 2 other quizzes, but perhaps this is the kick in that place that I need to get going.

    player avatar     		I would like to claim one, but someone has already said they are interested. I know it is first dibs, but it seems rotten to take it on when someone else has technically laid claim.

    		Plodd, Kyle has mentioned that there can be more than 1 quiz per intro up to 31st May. So you can still go ahead with your quiz and not feel bad. :)
