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!

If I have a General Knowledge quiz in the queue that has not yet been approved and is a team quiz, would it count towards fulfilling this? If not if I do another GK quiz can it be a team quiz or must it be only mine?

It'll count.

Lots of people making it through to the next task.

The editors in the "General" category are doing a fantastic job keeping up :)

I've only just started the adventure, but I can see that a lot of work has gone into this. Thanks Kyle for your efforts with this. It has rekindled my enthusiasm, after over a month of writing nothing. My thanks are added to the editors, too.

In regards to a couple of questions I've received:

A lot of people have been submitting their first quiz to the same category. This is to be expected. What should also be expected is a bit of a wait time. It'll be nothing extensive, but with more submissions we have more to edit and we have a longer wait time. This is typical of any category and is just part of the process. The editors are doing a great job at working through them. They have been asked *not* to give any special exceptions to AA quizzes. While the game is something special (and everyones' quizzes are special), the queue is the queue; it's only fair. Some people don't want to play the game and they will not be penalized for it.

Some quizzes not involved in the game may *seem* like they're taking a while but, as noted, there is no difference in quiz time. It always seems slower when we wait for them to go online. ;)

In these cases, keep in mind that editors are able to tag quizzes for one another if they have a specialty in a certain field or if they've already begun to edit the quiz and did not have time to finish. This may be the cause for a longer wait, but the quizzes are being checked.

Adventure quiz author challenge quiz #1 has been submitted. It is general and of simple interest, hopefully the editors will like it and they will fine-tune it with me soon.

I meant my "Adventures in Authoring" first quiz has been sent in for submission. Please excuse my excitement of accomplishment!

I got my first quiz submitted. It was a bit more difficult than I imagined so I guess I'll take the rest of the week off. :D

Actually, we've had a vacation planned for some time. I'm glad we're not on a strict schedule here.

Had it submitted yesterday. Forgot to post that yesterday. I'm extremely busy, and will be for about 30-40 days because of a HUGE project. I don't think I'll get through the AA very soon...

Hopefully it won't take long to get it done
