Something like that sounds fun, Leith, if we can pull it off. :-)

Nice idea Leith ... though I think even ratings can be skewered by a writer who is a member of a large team happy to support them with a string of excellent ratings

How many quizzes are we still waiting for? Just curious.

Counting from the Synopsis, one 11th round and two 12th round entries.

You are right pollucci, but if you look at a lot of the large teams they often have a fairly small number of active members in comparison to the total membership, whereas small teams have mainly active members, so I think support from your team would pretty much even out across the quiz authors participating.

I think the greater problem would be the possibility of people actually down-rating a rival team's quiz. While most players on FT would never do this, even a small minority using "Very Poor" ratings can quickly put what should be a Sunnies quiz into the lower half.

Well done by the way, rossian. Although, in my own twisted mind, I beat you by 10 hours. Dang first leg when I didn't know I was competing.
Sigh. Whatchya gonna do?
Thanks so much for the stats, wes. And thanks to Wes and Kyle for an awesome sprint. I would like another; this one I will do my best to win. :-P
It'd be fun to make the clues too. I bet you guys had a blast. :-)

Yeah Salami, watcha gonna do? Without an accidental mishap on Task 2, my time probably could've been in the top 5.
Oh well, I'm still proud finishing in 9th :)
Congrats to all the finishers and great job to rossian for finishing first!

Yes, but I'm 18th because of my unknowingly in the race for 5 days 3 hours.
Lol. I'm glad there are no prizes... But I did get some excellent quizzes out of this. :-P I loved the sprint!

Wes, can you please re-check the last round's time for our team? I wrote the quiz and it took me around 2 hours. Definitely not the 13 hours it shows as our latest time. Or have I misunderstood the table?

So I missed the 24 hour achievement by only 13 minutes! I had a feeling I'd taken just too long.
Well done on managing all three bonuses, Wes.
Salami - dream on. As they say, just look at the tables - they miss out all the hard luck stories.
Thanks again to Wes and Kyle for the challenges. Most of them were fun, but not all. And to confirm, Wes - I am female, not male.

Whoops on the gender... thankfully we don't have separate men's and ladies' competitions out here or I'd always mess that up :)

Can you recheck my time for the last quiz? I really don't believe I spent 15 hours on it - more like 2-3hours (according to the template) from when I set up the template, and that was certainly no more that an hour or so after I clicked the clues before I decided on my focus.
Congratulations to all who have finished, and please stop asking them to do this again. I would rather see a different fiendish challenge than repeat this, interesting as it has been.

...and well, zorba_scank is right which kind of messes up the entire winner's table up there.
Kyle: 12:09 am translates to 0:09, not 12:09 :)
