Subject: Stepping Up 25

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Jun 14 23

It's been a while since we've taken a bit of a clean-up trip to the Author Challenges list, but with this challenge, we're going to turn our efforts there in an attempt to tackle the longest-waiting titles. And with this being a milestone number (25 of these!?), let's spice it up a bit.

From now until Saturday (at noon FST), you may sign up to receive a title at random. The list will be posted then and the challenge will commence. It's kind of like a Commission, but you'll know what the selections are before the word go.

As always, in order to mark the title as claimed, you need to choose the title and create the quiz from the Author Challenges list. You'll know it's done right when you're on the 'Claimed' list. You may claim one at a time-- the list will only allow as much-- but if you have it placed online, you may claim another.

Thanks, as always, for stepping up to the plate to get these cleared!

Available Titles:
Backwards Clock - Kankurette
Like Father Like Son - Bmrsnr
Penny Wise Pound Foolish - Trident

Just to double check, we get given the title and we have to choose it from the list? We can't just pick it ourselves?

Can we ask for another title if we get one we can't write for? I'm asking cos I'm worried I'll get Nuclear Fission for Kids or something along those lines and I'm hopeless at science quizzes.

Kankurette, I hope we can hand back in titles and choose a new one because like you, I'm hopeless at Science as well as Geography, Sports, most of Video Games, and Music.

One of the titles is Theoretical Anomalies for Kids. I don't even know what a theoretical anomaly is. There's a couple of others that are 100% meant to be sci/tech quizzes.

I'm on the fence because I like doing Author Challenges but there are some titles I can't write for, and I've been pulled up for doing non-indicative titles (thank G-d for sub-headings, because the Space Series has a few non-indicative titles in it, like the sports quiz I'm doing at the moment).

No matter what, the title will be from what are currently the bottom-listed on the Author Challenges list, and usually we pull somewhere between 12-15. You would get one at random from those.

When it's assigned, you go in and claim it and start writing away.

With all due respect, you didn't answer our question.

By the way, thank you for adding my name to the list.

Re: "Can we ask for another title if we get one we can't write for?"

I would say no as that kind of defeats the purpose.

The alternative is not to sign up and see what's left of the titles to claim what remains if they pique your interest.

I’ll sign up. I think I can make something out of most of those titles.

I'll end up taking one of the ones remaining when the others have been doled out on Saturday.

I'm considering another so that I can help finish this challenge and get the July painting at the same time. Two birds with one stone ;)
