Why does the challenge page tell me to keep an eye on the Buzz? New Question Game is a daily, isn't it?

I think that is just a general keep an eye on the buzz type message.

Like a "Watch the Buzz for news about different Challenges on FunTrivia" type message.

Awarded to a player who wins his/her division in the randomly appearing New Question Quiz. Keep an eye in the Buzz and on the homepage for this game!

The reference to random appearance is what seems confusing, since it does not appear at random - it appears every night at the same time.

I wonder, was it random when it was new? Possibly before there were enough single questions to stock a daily game? I vaguely think this was the case, but my memory could be failing me.

Will Quick Quiz ever get a hat tip or is that one basically a burner at this point?

Questions correct: 15 / 15
You took 54 seconds to complete this quiz.

Congratulations!
You have advanced to Tier 4 for challenge 'Achievement: Who am I?' (for scoring 15 correctly in 60 seconds )

You can earn the next upgrade score 15 correctly in 60 seconds in difficult mode



I was in Difficult mode. Am I missing something?

You need to do tiers one by one. If you were only at 3 prior to playing, you are now 4. (Even if you had finished the game in 15 seconds on difficult, you'd have gone up only one)

Strange you'd ask this on the very day it was going to appear...

Tier 4 - 15 correct in 60 seconds (1567 players)
Tier 5 - 15 correct in 60 seconds in difficult mode (110 players)

This is what got me. I hardly ever check the challenge pages unless I need to claim something. The wording is what had me confused, the "in difficult mode" part. smile

I'm a psychic. I even guessed the correct word in Crystal Ball once upon a time, but only once. So I guess I'm not that good of a psychic... frown

Re: Alphabet Soup

It doesn't seem to be recording a second play. Had 1 "W" and played https://www.funtrivia.com/ql.cfm?cat=5786 but still at one.
Or maybe it needs two since it went live. I'll go plan another W.

Re: Alphabet Soup

Just played https://www.funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/SciTech/Will-She-or-Wont-She-393291.html and still at one "W."
I have played this quiz before, but it's over at least 60 days since it correctly counted it for 24 Hours of Science.

On the challenge page, I am shown as having played six eligible quizzes - here's one only as an example:

Letter A: 1 eligible quiz(zes) found.

But at the foot of the page, it says this:

You have completed 0 of 26 required letters so far.

Something is not working.

To check, I've played another quiz for a different letter, and it's registered as played next to that letter, but the total is still showing zero.
