Subject: Quiz-O-Meter 5 - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Mar 29 20

Tacked to the wall in this corner of the Author Lounge is a ten-step meter. Someone has placed a sign beneath it. Judging by challenges of this type in the past, all we need to do is fill it up to the top, but how do we do that?

Could it be that the title needs and even number of letters? I think all the ones suggested so far have an odd number.

Clever idea, but there are two words in the clue for this notch of the meter and I think the focus needs to be placed on the second.

Sorry-- another great quiz that the meter just isn't here for.

I didn't really think it would but I'm out of ideas for what the meter wants this time.

I keep coming back to the idea of a crossword. Even points = four corners?

Acrylic I think we are going along the same lines here. I was considering titles with shapes in them: square, cube, hexagon...

Has anyone suggested compass points? West and east would be "even", having an even number of letters. Just a thought.

In Reply 49, Kyle said: This clue here? Very different. It's not about the title at all. It might not even be about the contents. Going to need to get creative.

Without spoiling, I would try thinking 'how do I...?' instead of 'what do I...?'

So this creative approach to titles may be quite off the point.

How do I get "even points"?

Questions give 15 points... unless they are "Quick Quiz" questions which give 10 points. Maybe a quiz with "quick quiz" in the title?

What other places on this site give even points? Monster quiz? Others?

Kyle also mentioned the "points" part is more important than the "even" part. So maybe the focus doesn't have to be even "even". Points, points, points...hmmm (insert thinking emoji here)...

Even points? You get an even number of points for completing a crossword.

A touchdown is six points - even number

A result that is a tie means even points... except in Duel where it means sweet nothing

The Quiz and Crossword Contracts challenge awards points for writing quizzes. Maybe this quiz has to meet criteria in that challenge too?

On reedy’s suggestion, let’s try this one.

This quiz was awarded even points (6) for completing a contract.

Hmmm. No longer 'Even Points'. But perhaps 'Odd Topics' still applies to the Quiz & Crossword Contracts, only for an odd number of points this time?

Or an odd contract number?
