Topic: 12 Days of Xmas Challenge - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive

Subject: 12 Days of Xmas Challenge - COMPLETE
Date: Dec 06 12

The QMG (Quiz Makers Guild) already covered the song '12 Days of Christmas' to great effect but we're going to spend this December with a different approach. We have twelve titles here, each based on the song. If you claim a title here, write a quiz in any category (provided it makes sense for the title) and have some fun! First come, first serve! Also, one per person unless the challenge stretches past Christmas. :)

    I lack the effort to write about my original category, so it's time to switch. This new idea somewhat follows something Kyle and Swami did before (not exactly though).

    Christmas is nearing and we don't have takers for four titles!

    I was sort of hoping I might be able to use one for the next stage of AinA, after I finish and submit the current one. Hoping there's still a suitable one left.

    I will take Three French Hens after I finsh Eight Maids a-Milking if no one has claimed it by then. :-) I already have an idea.

    The original post says one title per person, unless there are some left after Christmas.

    Haven't started my Five Golden Rings yet -- trying to finish up another challenge first that Kyle has kindly reminded me to finish - I shall see how my time looks after that.

    In my "Eight Maids" quiz, I deliberately limited the answer choices to the pool of eight because I wanted to be able to ask a couple of questions at the end without giving the answers away. But then I got this feedback: "Too many of the same choices for each question." :-P

    Should I address this in the intro or conclusion? Take a look at the quiz and see what you think.

    You don't really need to address it at all, and you certainly don't need to defend it or explain why you did it. There was a challenge in the Sprint that required us to use the same four answers for every question, and spread the correct ones around. I have never received a complaint about it, but if I did I would then explain to that person what was going on. Your choice of incorrect options is really up to you, as long as they are valid options, which your editor would have checked. People who are trying to work out the answers by looking for the familiar names will be irritated because they see several familiar names, but that is really their problem, not yours. (I had three familiar names all matched up incorrectly when I took your quiz, but that was my ignorance, not bad quiz writing.)

    I agree with L_T, gracious1. You can't please everyone and you had valid reasons for writing the quiz the way you did. I wouldn't change your quiz in any way.
