Have you stumbled upon a quiz that was SO GOOD that you were amazed it wasn't an Editor's Choice?
Feel free to post suggestions of quizzes that you believe are uniquely creative, imaginative, interesting, fantastic and deserving of Editor's Choice designation.
There is NO guarantee that ANY of the quizzes posted here will receive such a designation, but we will periodically check some of these nominations out to make sure that nothing truly special slipped through the cracks.
Note that an Editor's Choice is exceptionally difficult to earn one of these designations, and that we have many thousands of well crafted, well researched quizzes that will never earn this designation.
Please post only those very few quizzes that are truly exceptional.
To try to reduce conflicts of interest and a massive list of quizzes from friends, please do NOT post quizzes from team members or people on your friends list.

This is one of the most intriguing "Where on Earth" quizzes I have ever seen. There are cultural references to locate an initial position, then geographical clues to the location of the answer - it combines all sorts of trivia in one delicious package. http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Geography/I-Gotta-Get-Outta-Here-344676.html Reply #221.

I played this quiz after seeing L-T's post and enjoyed it enough to second her nomination. :) Reply #222. Jan 20 12, 11:51 PM |

Hey, thanks guys. I enjoyed writing the quiz. I was tempted to make my references more impudent or even derogative about the places I was leaving, not sure how well that might have gone down....Maybe next time! Cheers.....Nick Reply #223. Jan 21 12, 1:53 AM |

I would like to nominate WesleyCrusher's 'Anything You Can Quiz, I Can Quiz Better'. It's like a Greatest Hits Volume of FT's best quizzes and does justice to every one of them. Reply #225. Feb 26 12, 6:33 AM |

I'll second that. It's original... in a different sort of way. Great quiz, but I'm sad to say I only scored 6. :( Here's the link: http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/General/Anything-You-Can-Quiz-I-Can-Quiz-Better-346878.html Reply #226. Feb 26 12, 9:08 AM |

This is a very clever quiz combinging historical knowledge and problem solving. http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/BrainTeasers/Shakespeare-Is-Dead-347620.html Be warned though, when the author says you'll need time and a pen and paper (or notes on word worked for me) he really means it, not one to flick through against the clock.

May I suggest http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Movies/The-Similarity-of-Star-Wars-and-Willow-339282.html It's perceptive, fun, and well written, I think. Reply #228. Apr 15 12, 8:58 AM |

I think this one is definitely deserving; anyone slightly scientifically educated would love the unique humor. http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/SciTech/Bond-Covalent-Bond-347169.html Reply #229. Apr 17 12, 9:55 AM |

I didn't know this thread existed, but I do know that I've been telling authors for OVER three years that their quizzes deserved to be selected as an Editor's choice (at least if I were an Editor), so here is my first nomination: http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/General/Pick-the-Proper-Pepper-348962.html and my second: http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Sports/Baseball-on-Other-Planets-349673.html From now on, I will use this thread more sparingly!

Gosh, it looks as if I follow myself with this nomination: He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother: Famous siblings by Paul Mallon Note: my icon looks smushed - it should be longer - and the Callipygian Venus not so "broad"! Cheers, Chevy Reply #232. Jun 15 12, 7:34 PM |

An interesting thought occurred to me... I know that I have seen people get three or more quizzes online in a single day, albeit very rare. What I want to know is this... Does anyone know of any players who have had two quizzes online in a day, both of which received an editor's choice? Reply #233. Jun 18 12, 3:05 PM |

The closest I've seen is a day apart or two. Reply #234. Jun 18 12, 3:10 PM |

I saw Glendathecat with that achievement, not an easy one, for sure. Reply #235. Jun 18 12, 3:13 PM |

Ahem! Adams627 wrote a great quiz - didn't see how it could be better! More Than You Have Bargained For http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Humanities/More-Than-You-Have-Bargained-For-350426.html Cprompt Reply #236. Jun 19 12, 9:12 PM |

Adams deserves a thumb for most all his quizzes... But we can't give him too many. ;-) Reply #237. Jun 19 12, 10:50 PM |

Been a while since anyone has seen this thread. I'll second the nomination of Wes's "Anything You Can Quiz I Can Quiz Better". Reply #238. Sep 19 12, 11:34 AM |

To give the link to that quiz once more... http://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/General/Anything-You-Can-Quiz-I-Can-Quiz-Better-346878.html It seems we're due for an EC; I cannot find one in the most recent 300 quizzes. The most recent was in June. :P Reply #239. Sep 19 12, 11:41 AM |

So I was wrong... An EC slipped through my eyes without me seeing it. I must go play it. In any case, I still second the nomination for Wes' quiz. ;) Reply #240. Sep 19 12, 11:42 AM |
