Topic: February Author Pot Luck

Posted by: kyleisalive

Subject: February Author Pot Luck
Date: Jan 31 13

You're invited!

The Quiz Author Lounge is having a Pot Luck and all you need to do to join in the festivities is bring a quiz. Any quiz. Really.

To be honest, there is a list of things we definitely need to make this a success, but most importantly, we need to have 120 quizzes in this month. That could be four quizzes for thirty authors or five for twenty-four (or any variation). A quiz a week.

All you need to do is write and submit the quiz. If it gets online in February (until, perhaps, the end of the 4th of March) it will be added to the Pot Luck's goal. The great thing is, even if you're a first-time author, you can bring a quiz and it will count to the collective total!

But where's the challenge in this? Some of our more prolific authors may be thinking '120? Piece of cake.' Well, in addition to needing to post 120 quizzes, a total of 50 requirements will need to be met; all of this will be a collective goal. Some will be as basic as completing a quiz in each category by the month's end; some will require more difficult criteria. These criteria can stack up, so if we need a quiz about cats, you can make it count for both that cats requirement and the specific category requirement.

Keep in mind that while fifty requirements must be met collectively, that means seventy quizzes (or more) could be about anything. Further, all of these quizzes can count towards your Pan-Galactics. ;)

Authors will be able to submit a maximum of six quizzes. This will ensure that we don't have just five people writing twenty-four quizzes each this month; we want the Pot Luck to be a success for more than five people! When the quiz is online, post it in here for it to count. The results will all be listed at the end of the month.

The requirements list will be posted tomorrow when the doors to the Lounge's temporary banquet hall open. I've still got some cleaning up to do. Until then, think of the possibilities! Remember: even one quiz will help everyone in the long run!

Enjoy, and have fun!

Yup-- they need to post them themselves. There's no knowing if one of them (or both) want to hold off in letting it go on the list for strategic reasons. Some authors already have five of their six quizzes in.

Unless Gracious1 wishes otherwise, her quiz should count for the February quiz.

Not any Celebrities quiz yet. Any candidates?

Well, I'm going to wait and see. There was a big error in my quiz that I only discovered when I went online just now. For the last 10 hours I had the wrong answer for George Washington's Birthday, and my quiz got some low ratings. :-(((

I'm not quite sure what the early ratings have to do with it - you have a quiz about February. If you're thinking about wanting sunnies so it can count for Pangalactic, you won't know until after this challenge is over, anyway. And this challenge needs a February quiz. :)

I don't know if my quiz "Say WHAT?" fits in here, up to you.

Alexis, ANYTHING that goes online in February belongs here - we still need another 54 quizzes, most of which can be on any topic at all, to reach out target! the more the merrier.

Alexis, I think you have to actually post the links for the quizzes to counts, not just the titles.

Me? Thanks!

It seems to me that the key to writing a good Celebrities quiz is to write one about celebrities who are famous for more interesting reasons than just being a celebrity, and who have lived long enough lives to have done more interesting things than being born and having a favorite food. The Marx Brothers certainly qualify!

L_T, go ahead and post up your groundhog quiz. Looks like I won't have it done in time for the end of the month.
