Subject: **The FunTrivia Collection**
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Sep 19 22
Every once in a while, here in the Author Lounge, we have some ambitious projects that stretch the limits and capabilities of our quiz-writers in ways that haven't been done. We've put our authors through Races, Gauntlets, Commissions, and Challenges of all sorts. Now it's time for us to create 'The Collection'.
The premise is simple: Create a collection of quizzes-- a capsule collection if you will-- that takes simple premises and executes them with diverse ideas, strong writing, and an eye for featured play. We want to create a set of quizzes that touch on trivia accessibly and with care. And we want to make it a big collection.
The Collection will consist of a number of rounds, one at a time, and each round will require that five quizzes be written.
Each round must feature five different authors, and those authors are not eligible to complete the proceeding round.
Only when all five quizzes are written and placed online will the subsequent round be posted.
All quizzes must be created on new templates and they can not count for other active challenges occurring in the Author Lounge unless otherwise specified.
This is a group effort-- we're all working together to make this collection work. Remember: the key to this one is accessibility. We're aiming to create quizzes that anyone can play!
CHALLENGE #1
To kick things off, let’s start at the very beginning. For this challenge, authors must submit quizzes with titles that begin with the word ‘FIRST’ or contain the word ‘FIRSTS’. Someone’s gotta be the one to begin it all, right?

1. First, Second, Third, Fourth - Ilona_Ritter
2. First, Identify the City - Upstart3
3. First Steps to European History - JanIQ
4. "First" In Songs - Ponycargirl
5. On Friday the First of Summerfilth - Bernie73
CHALLENGE #2
For this challenge, Geography is the aim of the game. We’re looking for five quizzes, and not only must each be about a different world city, but each of those cities must be on a different continent!
Completed Quizzes:
1. I Left My Heart And Photos In San Francisco - Stephgm67
2. A Homage to Helsinki - LadyNym
3. Baku: World City at the Continental Cross Roads - 1nn1
4. Buenos Aires - A Fascinating City - Gispepfu
5. A Slice of Heaven - Pollucci19

It’s all History, really! We’re looking for five different quizzes, all of which are placed online in the History category, and all of which focus on events in a different decade (ie. you can write on 1950s History or 2010s History, etc. etc.).
Completed Quizzes:
1. Events of the Nineties - Gispepfu
2. The Final Countdown - Bernie73
3. Ten Major Events from 1950-1959 - Ilona_Ritter

Intriguing - and it should be in full swing for QuiWriMo in November! Maybe we can make it one of the special awards this year. Reply #1. Sep 19 22, 2:17 PM |

Yup! This will kick off very soon. If it doesn't act as an award, hopefully it results in one down the line. ;) Reply #2. Sep 19 22, 5:32 PM |

Sounds like fun! Would it be first come or sign up? And speaking of quiz writing month I have a goal to reclaim my record. Will see what happens lol. Reply #3. Sep 19 22, 5:42 PM |

It will be the first five to get online for any round provided they meet the requirements. Keep in mind that anyone who has a quiz placed online in any given round can not have one online for the following one. The aim is for us to work together to complete the tasks. This thread can be used to plan that. Reply #4. Sep 19 22, 6:01 PM |

Our first challenge has been posted: CHALLENGE #1 To kick things off, let’s start at the very beginning. For this challenge, authors must submit quizzes with titles that begin with the word ‘FIRST’ or contain the word ‘FIRSTS’. Someone’s gotta be the one to begin it all, right? Just a reminder, the slots available are first-come-first-serve. Once all five are online, we move on to the next Challenge. It's a group effort, so no harm in joining in for the collective progress!

CHALLENGE #2 For this challenge, Geography is the aim of the game. We’re looking for five quizzes, and not only must each be about a different world city, but each of those cities must be on a different continent! Just a reminder, anyone who had a quiz placed online for Challenge #1 can not complete Challenge #2 (though they will be able to complete Challenge #3). Reply #11. Nov 16 22, 8:17 AM |

I'm about to head to San Francisco, CA for work so I'll take that one and try to get it out soon. :) Reply #12. Nov 18 22, 8:51 AM |

Can there be more than five quizzes on a topic? ie if one wasn't fast enough to be in the first five but one was written specifically for the challenge. This would lock you out of the new round announced after the first five admittedly but your quiz would not be in vain Reply #13. Nov 19 22, 4:09 AM |
| kyleisalive

For this one we’re only looking at five per challenge. There will be plenty more opportunities. As Challenge #1 was active for two months before we got five quizzes, I feel like the window is pretty wide to get involved. Reply #14. Nov 19 22, 6:50 AM |

Re: stephgm67 Coincidentally, that topic would be relevant for TRIC Z this round. :) Reply #15. Nov 19 22, 9:52 AM |

Hi, can I take Argentina for the current Geography round? I have a 25q project on mind, that I will try to bring up next week. Reply #16. Nov 19 22, 6:24 PM |
| kyleisalive

Keep in mind that this challenge requires that the quiz be about a specific city. Would also touch base with an editor in the category to make sure the 25q quiz is clear to fly. :) Reply #17. Nov 19 22, 6:51 PM |

Ahhh, right, I skipped the city requirement. Ok, I'm still gonna work on the 25qn project, but not for this challenge. I'll think about something else to cover this one up, I still want to contribute here. Reply #18. Nov 19 22, 7:06 PM |

Here is my geography one for North America. Thanks (and Happy Thanksgiving). Stephanie https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/geography/i-left-my-heart-and-photos-in-san-francisco-411014.htmlReply #19. Nov 24 22, 3:50 PM |

Excellent-- that covers North America, but there's a lot still left to cover. :) Reply #20. Nov 24 22, 5:11 PM |
