Subject: 2022 Limited Edition Badgelet
Posted by: WesleyCrusher
Date: Mar 18 22
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)!

Re: "I'd like to claim "the two of us as one" from PROMISE, if I could, please." I meant "two of us ARE one". The "as" version was already claimed. Reply #43. Apr 12 22, 10:42 AM |

I'm already working on "With a spirit born to run". Not sure if an overlap makes a difference or not? Reply #46. Apr 14 22, 9:40 PM |

My mistake, sorry! I'll take "We'll go on, ever on" instead....doesn't look like that's claimed. Reply #47. Apr 15 22, 10:59 AM |

According to the blurb, this badgelet is awarded immediately upon completion. I had my quiz on-line over a week ago and posted it on this thread, but I still don't have the badgelet. Is there something else I need to do or is it simply a question of patience? Mazza Reply #48. Apr 16 22, 3:52 AM |

Wes did mention in an earlier reply that he would do bees in batches as he has some access issues. Reply #49. Apr 16 22, 3:55 AM |

Re the question above "born to run" - both quizzes would count as they have different titles. However, of course, the shorter title would not help the community challenge. Reply #54. Apr 20 22, 2:47 AM |
