That would explain it of course. I had just made a quick notice as I was also clicking through all the sets looking for more urgent issues and didn't want to put too much time on this relatively low priority one right away (since it did not actually hurt the player's ability to complete)

Just played this today and Easy and Medium achieved with little difficulty and went on to attempt the Difficult level and succeeded, but alas no badgelet awarded.

The five quizzes attempted were:

Sep 24 12 - 12:17 PM "Doctor Who": Series 5 & Part One of Series 6 Buziel Classic 8 / 10
Sep 24 12 - 12:14 PM 'The Shakespeare Code' TheCharmedOnes Classic 10 / 10
Sep 24 12 - 12:12 PM 65- 'The Three Doctors' Mattiels Classic 10 / 10
Sep 24 12 - 12:10 PM "Doctor Who" - "A Christmas Carol" drwhomad Classic 10 / 10
Sep 24 12 - 12:08 PM 'Rose' (Part 1) hrrypttrcrzy Classic 9 / 10

All were difficult or tough and met the criteria, AND were played in a row.

Bit miffed with missing out but wanted you guys to be aware of this.

What badgelet were you expecting? If it gave you a green check mark, it's complete. If it didn't give you a check mark, then you have a problem.

english_gent, "Dr. Who, a Christmas Carol" is Average, not tough. Thus it broke your winning streak. You need to play two more (the three next ones all count).

You can also attempt this challenge multiple times during the day if you miss - all that counts is to get the five in a row.

Was it?? Darn, rats and other little words of displeasure.

Fiddlesticks - oh well, back to the drawings board then lol

And much obliged for pointing out my error (must get my eyes checked)

I will modify the output of that challenge to indicate which of your recent quizzes broke the chain so this type of thing doesnt keep coming up.

What badgelet are you referring to? I don't know of any badgelets that you would get for completing either the Difficult challenge or all 3 challenges.

There's also a mini for completing 7 challenges, but the earliest that can be won is tomorrow.

Thats a good idea Terry, but really was my fault for not reading the coloured word properly.

BUT just to let you know I've now succeeded in doing each one, and would like to say that this is one challenge that I feel I would come back to most days to play so thank you for setting this up Terry and other admins.

I think he was simply referring to the missing completion mark.

And yes, the first badgelets can be won tomorrow. If you manage to score 9 or higher in today's and tomorrow's games, you can buy an extra and get the seventh done. You might also get extremely lucky, receive an epic and win that one as well

Terry, 2 or 3 days ago, there was a link for facts about this new Challenge. I can no longer find it?

Never mind -- Just found it at the top of the Daily Challenge page. Would someone please find my glasses?

P.S. Liking it, so far

It's right on the challenge page itself as "Daily Challenges Intro & FAQ".

It's also http://www.funtrivia.com/faq.cfm?system=3

Have fixed a couple of other minor bugs, and added the more detailed output for "in a row" challenges.

Need to play a quiz within 20 minutes of it going online and get at least 90%.

Editors. I'm looking at you.

There have been several new quizzes placed online today according to the Buzz...I don't think this one will be a problem

LOL, George, try being this side of the pond... when we were testing the challenge, I spent many hours each day waiting for an editor to get up and get a quiz online - and then it would be some obscure pop song I never wanted to know about in the first place! Or worse, a video game. ;p

I would have loved to give you one but the only one in the queues I am working was unfortunately close but not really ready for publication.

It's fitting I first checked these challenges 25 minutes after a bunch of video games and humanities quizzes went online. Neither are my good categories, but it would have been worth a shot.

Apparently, there are challenges on the global challenge. What happens during the weeks where one GC has just finished and the other hasn't started yet?

Then you wont get those challenges.

These specific challenges won't be given during that time.

Check the top of your head, that's where mine were.

Nice descriptions on the new badges btw wesley

On the "Seven Done" badgelet it says:

"Just come remember to back here and grab this badgelet when you have done your first seven challenges."

I think what was meant was: "Just remember to come back here"...

I always knew Wesley was an android from another planet. His speech buffers got scrambled.

Haha I especially thought it was funny that all the words were actually there, just not in the right order. Sorry in advance, Wes, for laughing at you...

I must have missed that one... oops, sorry Wes. Although you may have written that one after I did the proof-reading, in which case...

The "remember to" was a late addition after the sentence didn't quite feel right without it. It just got inserted one word further to the right than it was supposed to be.
