Subject: 2022 Limited Edition Badgelet

So 2021 is over and that pandemic still sticks around. On top of it, there's now a war in Ukraine whose consequences are felt around the world and growing concern about the future in all aspects.
Let's set that aside for a bit and focus on hope, togetherness and a bright, lasting future, as in these two songs - or rather two parts of a song.
"Promise":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Da3k2h9dTZM
"We Go On": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWwdgFkfxRg
And just so that we can all focus on positivity, let's use these to inspire our quiz-writing. If you want to be part of the "We Go On" promise on FunTrivia, all you need to do is write a quiz whose title is a direct quote from either of the songs' lyrics. It can be a single word, two words, a whole line, whatever you wish it to be.
There's of course a badgelet to be earned - you can see it here: https://www.funtrivia.com/challenges.cfm?id=-197
Here's the full lyrics:
PROMISE
Every evening
Brings an ending
Every day becomes a legacy
Every sunset
Leads to morning
With the promise of opportunity
We can reach for the stars we find along the way
Dreaming as we learn to love everyday
Promise You will take my hand
As tomorrow comes
We'll go on
We'll go on
Growing closer through the years
Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
If two can be as one
We'll go on
There is music
If you listen
In the rhythm of each breath we take
Destinations
Undiscovered
Revelations from every choice we make
And I know
There are diamonds dancin' in the sky
All we have to do Is open our eyes
Promise
We'll walk side by side
As a new day dawns
We'll go on
We'll go on
Growing closer through the years
Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
A new life has begun
The two of us as one
We'll go on
Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
A new life has begun
When two of us are one
And we live to keep the promise
We'll go on
Ever on
We'll go on
WE GO ON
With the stillness of the night,
There comes a time to understand,
to reach out and touch tomorrow,
Take the future in our hand,
We can see a new horizon,
Built on all that we have done
And our dreams begin another,
Thousand circles 'round the sun,
We go on,
To the joy and through the tears,
We go on,
To discover new frontiers,
Moving on,
With the current of the years,
We go on,
Moving forward, now as one,
Moving on,
With a spirit born to run
Ever on,
With each rising sun,
To a new day,
We go on,
We go on!

(Bold italic marks "freebie" words)
A few rules:
- Quotes must be full, exact words. You can't do "stand to reach out" (because it's "understand") and "The future is in our hands" won't work because of the extra "is" and the plural.
- You may change punctuation and capitalization and you can work across lines.
- Each title may be used only once for credit, but titles can overlap or you could even use a subset of a title already used.
- You can use any category or quiz format. You could even make a crossword if you want.
- The challenge will be judged like any other title-based challenge, so your title must reasonably fit the quiz. This call is (as always) made by the editor who places your quiz online.
And, because we want to go on together, there's again a community challenge involved in this but this time it's not about categories - it's about fully completing both songs. Repeated lines of course need to be covered only once, but be careful: it's "We'll go on" in the first and "We go on" in the second. That's two different things. Conjunctions, articles and so on are free.
A valid way to cover the first verse of "We Go On" for the community could be
Stillness of the night
There comes a time
Time to understand
Reach out and touch
Touch tomorrow, Take the future
Future in our hand
(The "with the" is not needed).
It's strongly recommended (but not required) that you claim your title before writing just to make sure no one else will use the same title. And please, before you write, check that you're not duplicating something another author is already working on.
The challenge is open until the end of the year - you must make a first submit within 2022. You can of course do more than one title if you wish to help with the community aspect, but there's no tiers on this - you get it for one quiz just the same as for ten.
If you want to work on this as a team, feel free - you can write team quizzes (but each player who wants the badgelet must contribute 10 questions over several quizzes) and you could also, as a group, pick up an entire stanza and then further split it as you wish. (Please reserve no more than four lines at a time for one group.)
Let's go (on)!

'Love' is now online, too, thanks to some very speedy editing by Spanishliz, while I was waiting to see the fireworks from London on the television. Possibly the last quiz for the challenge. https://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/BrainTeasers/Love-399911.html Happy New Year, everybody! :-) Reply #284. Dec 31 22, 6:21 PM |

Congratulations all who took part - this community challenge was extremely hard and yet it did get completed. Take those songs into your heart as you move into 2023 and I hope they brought some joy and hope to everyone! Special thanks to those who entered more than one quiz to make the seemingly impossible happen... and remember... everything is possible... if you finish it with LOVE. Reply #286.

Thanks for the challenge, Wes. It was fun, even if I was a late participant! If "everything is possible... if you finish it with LOVE" will I get a badgelet? Reply #287. Jan 01 23, 4:55 AM |

I actually missed yours! Shame on me, since you had of course already earned it with the first quiz that went online. Fixed! Reply #288. Jan 01 23, 5:26 AM |

Would anyone want to volunteer to make a quiz list of these for easy conversion into a scavenger badge? If you want to do that, please - list quizzes and crosswords separately - sort each type by order of (first) appearance in the lyrics. Quizzes would be best as an actual quiz list, crosswords would have to be posted here - we don't have a quiz list feature for those. It would REALLY help me if someone (preferably non-staff!) compiled these! Thanks! Reply #291. Jan 21 23, 5:47 PM |

It works this way as well - thanks a whole lot! I'll compile these into a Terryable(TM) format and make a badge image, hopefully coming very soon to a certain Tower near you! Reply #295. Jan 22 23, 3:33 PM |

Whether you wrote for this or not, you can now get a shiny new badge to last a millennium by playing the results! https://www.funtrivia.com/chalinfo.cfm?id=239&addheader=1 Reply #296. Feb 03 23, 5:45 PM |

Too bad it's just for Gold Members--I would have enjoyed playing everything we wrote last year, and see how my quiz fit in there. 2021's badge wasn't for Gold Members--is there any chance that this one will open up after awhile? Reply #297. Feb 04 23, 7:44 AM |

I don't think there's anything to stop you playing the quizzes and crosswords, even if you don't get a badge for it. Reply #298. Feb 04 23, 8:32 AM |

This one is inherently gold-only as a badge because you need crosswords which are tracked only for subscribers. You can use the above lists (or the thread as a whole) to play everything however. Reply #299. Feb 04 23, 12:12 PM |

Hmm--I get it. Too bad regular members can't get the badge just by playing the quizzes and not the crosswords, though. Still, thanks for the explanation! Reply #300. Feb 04 23, 12:59 PM |
