Subject: A Show of Hands - A Challenge - COMPLETE

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Dec 31 21

Well, the suggestions are in and we've polled the people of the Author's Lounge. Let's start with something straightforward to fill our hands a little bit.

For this challenge, we're looking for one quiz per category. You can choose any category you wish, but the theme is HANDS. Hands of any sort, of course, so feel free to make it about horse measurements or poker or whatever suits your fancy...with hands. The word 'HAND' must be in the title of your quiz.

It's first-come-first-serve. Once you make your intentions clear here (raise your hand, I mean), your name will get attached to the category. You may select more than one category if your previous one goes online.

As a recommendation, please avoid selecting a category if you already have numerous Lounge challenges on the go; it's only fair to let people with quick, fresh ideas to get the early pick and to try their hand at it. If you're on top of your submissions, then by all means. Let's say, informally, if you have one or two other titles checked out elsewhere in the Lounge (at this list here) then you might hold off until those are out of the way. We're considering your hands already full. ;)

Anywho-- here are hands!

    Just to clarify the requirement that the title include the word HAND, can it be plural (HANDS)? And what about part of a compound word (HANDSHAKE)?

    RE: LT

    Those are all fine. It's when you start making words like HANDSOME or CHANDLER or something that has nothing to do with hands that we have a problem. ;)

    No need to get tenuous to make it work.

    Does it actually have to have the word "HAND" or could it be hand-related, like GLOVE or FINGER?

    My first thought was to ask for the Hobbies berth with questions based upon "Hand me that [description of tool used in handicraft]", but I suppose that's not really legitimate? Given that, I'll go for the Animals category. Many thanks, Malcolm

    Re: reply 7

    Per the instructions, the title word must be HAND.

    Re: reply 12

    This would make your fifth active challenge title in the Lounge. Per the instructions above, please take the time to work on your existing challenge quizzes first before claiming more from here.

    "Can I have religion?"

    Ilona_Ritter, anybody can have religion. All they have to do is believe in something greater than themselves and then do something about that belief.

    But that's not what you meant, is it?
