The time has come to test your mettle, new and prolific authors alike. Come one, come all! FunTrivia's Adventures in Authoring are beginning!

http://www.funtrivia.com/authorthis.cfm

Use this thread to discuss your progress, talk about your quizzes for the game, or ask for help. The Author's Lounge is a wonderful place to both learn and challenge yourself, so if you happen to get stuck, don't panic. It's why we're here!

Remember not to reveal the mysteries of the game-- while everyone's adventures may take them in different directions, the mysteries only have one solution.

Oh, and most importantly, enjoy! FunTrivia wouldn't be what it is without players and writers!

It's not something I've done for quizzes, but I do have rather convoluted spreadsheets for my novel writing and my music library, so I don't think you're too crazy, Looney. :P I do love spreadsheets too.

I do keep track of the quizzes and questions I write in Word documents, with a table of how many in each category, so it's not beyond me to note down my AinA quizzes. :)

Wow, you lot are so organised I feel quite ashamed of myself for not doing anything similar.

Likewise. It's too late for me.

I keep track of all my quizzes and questions in Pages documents but it's revelations like these that make me glad I never learned to set up spreadsheets. :)

My "Up to Business Slogans!" quiz is complete and submitted. This is my fifth quiz for "adventures in authoring".

Buddy1 One more thing I wish to mention:
Although I don't do anything with my authored quizzes, since I know everything I want to about my quiz just about looking at them on my profile, I do keep an Excel spreadsheet with all the quizzes I've taken. They're divided into the 20 categories with two totals: the total number of quizzes I've taken and the total number of quizzes I have listed. (There's also a grand total for each.)
Then, I list each quiz individually. I have 5 columns: one for the title, one for the difficulty level, one for the # of questions, one for the date it went on-line, and one the quiz number.

ASA I have completed my first quiz for the General section, but am not allowed to submit it, as I have a quiz waiting approval in the Vocabulary section.Should I pull it out so that I can submit by general quiz? It has been in the queue for a week, so it may be near the top. On the other hand is there a requirement late on in AIA that requires a vocabulary quiz?

It's your call if you want to submit one over the other; there's no rush.

As for your last question, that's not going to be told. ;)

ASA Thanks Kyle,

I went to pull the vocabularly one and found that it has been looked at and transferred to Thematic just yesterday, so it obviously thought of being quizworthy, so I will leave it in that queue.. Unless of course you can reveal that a Thematic quiz is needed later on ;)

Re: "Unless of course you can reveal..."

NOPE. ;)


Double check your AA page to make sure it's eligible. It'll say if it is (or it won't if it's not). We can make it work.

zorba_scank That's great, Salami! Looking forward to playing it.

ASA I have managed to get my "Pass Over" quiz through, and it has been played more often in one day than one of my quizzes that has been on line eight years, poor old Cruella de Vil.

Hmmm... after reading these last several notes... I'm wondering if I should start a spreadsheet.

It's too late for the badges and badgelets, unless I check my email for dates. But it's still a lot of work.
