Subject: Transit Maintenance - COMPLETE
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Jan 16 22
Hello everyone--
You've no doubt taken trips on FunTrivia's Bus Ride. Some of you, perhaps, have taken more rides than others. It should come as no surprise that, over the years, some stops may have been a bit repetitive. With the Bus Ride running for (what) twelve years now(?), it just seems that some countries get more love than others for new trivia.
With this in mind, we're aiming to perform a bit of a refresh, in some cases closing down the old bus stops and installing new ones along the route. It's all the same countries, but it's time to make some long-needed transit maintenance happen, especially since we have so many new quiz types.
In this thread here, we have thirty different nations, the first set of countries that, based on our current infrastructure and surveying, need new quizzes. Working together, it's time to accomplish the challenge. A few requirements, however:
Variety is the spice of life! We're aiming to create a dynamic Bus Ride that takes a look at the many unique facets of the nations visited. This means that in addition to Geography quizzes, which are generally the go-to, there is a likelihood that new quizzes in the World category (eg. cultures) or the General category (eg. Mixed Countries) or similar will be a good fit. At least ten of the countries below must be in categories that aren't Geography.
Speaking on variety again, we have so many new quiz types that it doesn't make sense not to employ them. 5 quizzes submitted for this challenge must be Label Quizzes; 5 must be Order Quizzes; 5 must be Classification Quizzes.
As a reminder, the quizzes used on the Bus Ride must be country-specific. If the option is for the Czech Republic, then a quiz solely about Prague isn't necessarily going to make the grade.
Below are the thirty countries we're aiming to work at. Most of these haven't had replacement quizzes since the Bus Ride started. Selections are first-come-first-serve and you may claim additional countries when your previous ones have gone online.

The Bahamas - RedHook13

Just as a warning, we're coming up to that point where those last extra requirements are going to start becoming mandatory! We still need two Label Quizzes and an Order Quiz. :) Reply #84. May 18 23, 7:06 AM |

I am planning to write a Label quiz for Niger, and hope to do so very soon. Apologies for taking it a bit too easy, but I am trying to work my way through some adopted quizzes before I start work on some new stuff. Reply #85. May 18 23, 10:09 AM |

The idea I had for a Label quiz for Niger did not work out because of technical issue, so there's still two slots up for grabs in the Label quizzes. Reply #86. May 20 23, 9:07 AM |
