A post in another thread just made me think. As a player, when you play a quiz, do you actually look and see where it's ranked on the site overall? Do you check to see if it's a new one still in need of ratings to get it to 20? Or do you just play and rate it accordingly, without thinking about how other people have received it? As an author, do you worry about people playing your quiz "for the wrong reason" like if it's in a Badgelet list, or the Busride, and rating it by their score, rather than for it's "worth"? I have some quizzes that are ranked highly consistently, even with lots of ratings, and I have some that are way way down in the lists. The ones that are low aren't bad quizzes - they tend to be on books that not many people have read, or bands that not many people listen to, and 20 Good/Average ratings just won't get them very high up the rankings. *I* know they aren't bad, so I don't let it worry me, but I just wondered what other people think? Some people also seem to dislike/worry about how hard a quiz is rated, so if it ends up Very Difficult, or Impossible, they get concerned - why? Does the difficulty rating of a quiz put you off playing it? If it's a book you love say, or your favourite band, do you play and think that the rating is because others don't know the subject, or do you not play for fear you won't do well?
