Subject: Globetrot Trivia 4 - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Nov 16 18

Grab your passports!

Like our previous Globetrot Trivia Challenges, we will be stopping off at fifteen different locations and go exploring with quizzes inspired by the destinations selected. This trip should stretch participants to several new destinations. We have a few repeat countries, but completely different spots within them just to mix things up.

A destination will be posted here on this thread. Sometimes that destination will be very specific and sometimes it will be very vague, but either way, we’ll need to have two quizzes queued up before we move on to the next location. When those quizzes are queued, the next one will show. You can, of course, write for any listed destination, even if we move on from it, until the challenge is closed (usually a couple months after we reach the end.

So if we use an example: ‘The Eiffel Tower, Paris'. This means we need to queue two quizzes— anyone can submit them— before we continue on. The quizzes can be about the tower or about World's Fairs or about steel structures or Parisian landmarks or Paris itself or Gustave Eiffel, etc. As long as you can justifiably link the quiz's subject matter/content to the locations, it’s good! I would like to encourage authors to think outside the box. Use these prompts as an opportunity to spread yourself to parts of the site you may never have thought of before. Since players will be looking at these quizzes from a different angle in the future, it will be very helpful to avoid repetition!

Once we make our trip around the world, we’ll return to our starting location in some way. Last time, we started in Mexico and ended the route in Mexico again.

All you need to do is post when your quiz is submitted, and when there’s two we’ll move along. The quiz doesn't even need to be online yet! Think of it as a teaser for the players. ;)

Oh yeah-- and all quizzes submitted for the Globetrot challenges will play a strong part in a future game for the site. Just to put that out there. So the more, the better!

    No one said that Globetrotting would be easy. Take a lengthy flight from The Netherlands all the way to Mumbai, India. We're going to make a quick stop specifically at Film City, our fifth destination. This film studio near Sanjay Gandhi National Park is the filming location for the majority of Bollywood productions, and it's up to you to make a quiz that works for the destination!

    This quiz was inspired by Lombardy. It's my first Globetrot quiz so I hope it fits.

    You know Kyle is overworked by the evil twin and his apprentice when he forgets to mention the next stop in the tour.

    I saw the posting when I was at work and then completely forgot that I was supposed to link everything together. I try to avoid updating the games when I'm not at my home PC just in case I put out the wrong info. I'll get things in order in a few minutes. We're staying in India.

    (I was drinking coffee this morning and realized "ugh I forgot".)

    That's right, we're staying in India, but instead of hovering around Mumbai, we're going to jaunt to the southwest coast and spend a stop in Kerala State.

    Kerala, home to the city of Kochi (or Cochin), is on the Malabar Coast facing the Indian Ocean and contains a much smaller population that that found in the larger cities. This region's largest city-- Thiruvananthapuram, the Evergreen City-- contains a twelfth of Mumbai's population. Formerly known as the 'Spice Garden of India', Kerala State was part of the water route of the Silk Road, and it was Vasco de Gama's first stop upon reaching India to establish a shipping route from Lisboa.
