Unacceptable Questions
|
Opinions do not belong in quiz questions. Questions in quizzes must deal with verifiable facts. The question Who is the best all-time R and B artist? and the question True or False: Paris is a much nicer city than Rome? and the question Who is her best friend? belong in the FT forums ... why not jump over to the FunTrivia Community Forums , register, and join in the discussions! Opinions in blurbs or the quiz introduction are acceptable as long as they are reasonable, and not outrageous or inflammatory. Two word questions one or two word questions are no longer accepted in some categories i.e. each question in a quiz must be a complete sentence. Please check the specific requirements of your chosen category before drafting a quiz. Repeat questions if at all possible, please try to avoid repeating questions which are already in another quiz, by playing a few quizzes in your category beforehand. Some categories prohibit repeat questions. Please check the specific requirements of the relevant category before drafting your quiz. Linked questions every question must stand on its own two feet, don't link one question to a previous question, such as What is the capital of the country in Question 4? This applies to all categories except Brain Teasers, and Common Bond quizzes in General. The answers to these linked questions must always be FITB. Questions about money or contract values or remuneration, or prizemonies earnt by athletes or celebrities or other persons, will no longer be accepted as quiz questions. These questions have generated truckloads of correction notes, due to the confidential nature of money matters or conflicting facts. Ditto dollars gross collected at the box office by movies. Filler questions to pad out your quiz such as "Did you like my quiz?" or "Is it true that my dog's name is Lassie?" or anything else along those lines, will be rejected, as they are not quiz questions. Questions not statements wherever possible, please write questions as questions, in the interrogative case; not as statements. You are writing a quiz, not a novel. Future tense does not work in an online environment, and is not allowed in Quizzyland. Quizzes will be online for months and years to come, and the question will, at that time, refer to the past! Date stamping of questions with the expression as of November 2001 are no longer acceptable, as the question will go stale as time goes by. Finally, any other trivia question which, in the opinion of an editor, is too esoteric or trivial, will also be rejected. This is not open to debate. e.g. a person's height, the colour of their hair, tattoos, their shoe soze, colour of their eyes, names of their pets, etc. FunTrivia.com reserves the right not to include questions submitted and does not guarantee that any or all submitted quizzes will be placed online. Quizzes submitted may be edited, modified or deleted by our editorial staff at any time. 16-Nov-01, 27-Aug-02, 01-Mar-03
