Subject: NEW GAME: AUTHOR GALLERY
Posted by: Terry
Date: Dec 20 22
Trident and I are putting together a new fun collectible artwork game to go along with authoring.
Each month we will present a "painting" that you can earn and display in your own personal art gallery. Over time you can collect and gather more and more works of art.
The limited time January 2023 painting will only be available for that month, never to appear again on FunTrivia.
HOW TO EARN:
Each month there will be 3 mini-challenges that will change month to month. ex. "author a sports quiz" or "author a photo quiz" or "complete an authoring title challenge".
Complete ONE of these mini-challenges during the month on ONE quiz submission and you will earn the painting... unframed. Complete ALL THREE mini-challenges spanning at least 2 different quizzes that you create in that month and you will get the painting with a lovely frame.
Examples: Complete mini-challenges #1 and #2 on quiz 1, and #3 on quiz 2. Or, submit one quiz that satisfies all three #1 #2 #3 and a second quiz on any topic. Or, one quiz that does #1, a second that does #2, and a third that does #3.
Here is a sneak peak at how it works, and what you can aim for starting January 1, 2023:

TIMING:
For the January painting, only quiz templates you create (or adopted) from January 1 to January 31 will be considered.
BUT: you get up to a month's grace period to get the quiz(zes) online, to take into account the variable editing process. So a quiz you create January 17th, but that goes online February 19th still counts for (only) January's painting.

Strategising for Home/Castle categories and formats took some thought, but I have my two templates set up. Now I just need to find time to write them! Reply #221. Mar 01 24, 6:42 PM |

It adds a whole new layer of complexity to the strategy. Reply #223. Mar 02 24, 1:31 AM |

Some of the category / format combinations are challenging in terms of trying to come up with suitable quizzes without them having a 'forced' or contrived look of a quiz shoehorned into a less than optimal format for the sake of a challenge. What I found surprising was the categories I was closest to completing were not in my most prolific categories (Music, Geo) but were in categories I only had a moderate number of quizzes (History, Sports, World). Even then I am still six quizzes minimum short of the badge requirements. Reply #224. Mar 02 24, 3:30 PM |

I find that some formats are not very friendly to some categories. I had to think long and hard to come up with an Order quiz for Animals (which went online a couple of hours ago). However, the Castle challenge is not supposed to be easy - as shown by the rather large number of prestige points it awards. The other one is definitely more accessible. Reply #225.

Got mine in for the month and knocked off a couple requirements. Had no idea I'd never written a Match Quiz in Entertainment before now. Now to wait. :D Reply #226. Mar 03 24, 2:54 PM |

Hi, there. I submitted a quiz "It's All in Black and White" that AFAIK fulfilled all three requirements for the Author Gallery game, and it went online on March 23rd, but it never showed up on the Gallery as qualifying. Could someone please help me figure this out? Would be most grateful. Reply #227. Mar 25 24, 7:16 PM |

Hello, again. I double-checked: it was created from a brand-new template, too. So I'm really puzzled. Reply #228. Mar 25 24, 7:18 PM |

Was your template created in the month of March? If not, then it cannot qualify. You can check if a quiz qualifies for the current month's requirements by looking at the section labeled "Your Quiz Templates That Will Be Considered". Reply #229. Mar 25 24, 7:19 PM |

It appears that the quiz template was created in February, so it would not count for March per the game rules. Reply #230. Mar 25 24, 7:21 PM |

Oh dear, it does appear when I look in the Old Editor that I used a template created in February. I don't understand how that happened. There doesn't seem to be a title from that date. I'm perplexed. Reply #231. Mar 25 24, 8:01 PM |

I guess I somehow made a stupid mistake, though I could have sworn I was using a new template. Evidently I'm a klutz. Reply #232. Mar 25 24, 8:04 PM |

This is the first month where I'm down to the wire on getting at least an unframed painting. Being on holiday for 2 weeks hasn't helped my productivity! Reply #233. Apr 22 24, 11:47 AM |

Does a photo match quiz count as a match quiz for the purposes of the Gallery game for April? Reply #234. Apr 29 24, 4:13 PM |

IIRC it needs to specifically list Photo-Match. Reply #235. Apr 29 24, 4:32 PM |

Unfortunately, Photo Match does not count towards match quizzes. I do believe that they count as photo quizzes, when that option happens to come up. Reply #236. Apr 29 24, 9:27 PM |

You can find out for sure whether a format works by setting up a template and then checking your month's gallery page. It lists there all templates set up in the month, and which, if any, of the criteria it meets. If it doesn't work the the painting, it can still be used for something. :) Reply #237.
