Subject: Commission 76 - Easy/Hard

Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Nov 04 23

Need a quiz pick-me up? A prompt to get the mind working?

For this Commission, anyone aiming to participate must send in a quiz title that contains the word 'EASY' or 'HARD'. These may not be part of a larger word unless you're taking the comparative or superlative. In effect, 'harder' and 'hardest'/'easier' and 'easiest' are fine, but 'hardware' or 'greasy' would not be. Your title can be anywhere you want, but I caution that a title that narrows in on a single focus will likely be less exciting. Giving someone else 'Easy Flintstones Trivia' isn't going to do all too well, and it's generally poor form to suggest a difficulty to a player before they even play the quiz.

The title you wish to commission should be sent directly to my mailbox via private message. As always, on the starting date, you will receive your title, at random, from another participant that must be written with. On the date your quiz goes online, the original sender will be noted here and the quiz will be added to the completed list.

Commissions are generally not open to first-time authors. Please have at least a few quizzes already online before joining this. If you have a quiz title from a previous Commission, that must take priority. There are only five of these out there, all from the same Commission. If you have that submitted, you can also join this one.

The deadline for sign-ups is Sunday, November 12 at 12pm FST (noon). And at that point, titles will no longer be added to the list. As always, you will also be notified via a personal message when I've added your title to the master list here.

Maybe this will help out some QuiWriMo needs or help some first-timers get the badgelet or Prestige. Easy as that! Talk to you soon!

    As a heads-up, there's a small amount of quizzes written for Commissions that fit this criteria that've already been done. I recommend steering clear of:

    'As Easy as 1-2-3'
    'Easy Come, Easy Go'
    'Hard Working Woman'
    'It Can't Be This Hard, Can It?'

    Just to make sure we're not duplicating accidentally.

    Bumping this up. A few days to go for sign-ups. Some newer names, some authors returning after a while away, some regulars. Still time to sign up. :)

    If anybody is looking for inspiration for a title, 'hard' is one of the words needed in the songs for the 2023 Limited Edition challenge.

    Contrary to the title, that was easier than I expected, once I got an inspiration!

    Vbookworm put that title into the mix. Looks like the easy ones are getting out of the way. ;)

    It's been a while since Snowman has been seen in the Commissions, but his return came with a thumbs-up.
