When a quiz maker submits a quiz, how is it determined which editor within a category edits it? Is it just whoever is least busy? Do you guys get to pick which ones you want? I'm just curious because my life is at a slow point and really have nothing better to do than think up strange questions to ask people! lol

Not such a bad question at all. We all get to know each other's "specialities" as it were so that if something I edit is in line someone else might give me a heads up about it.
Otherwise we pretty much go in and take the top ones in the lineup.
In our categories we can normally spot the first things a quiz needs despite the fact we might not know all the ins and outs of the specific subject.

Thanks for the quick response! It was storming this morning and I couldn't sleep, and I thought of that when I was awake waiting on the storm to pass! lol

Chippy, that was a good question, and Bruyere answered it correctly.

I'm glad you asked this question Chippy. I was wondering about it myself, just never got around to asking. Thanks!

Chippy, my cat weighs 15 and a half pounds. My quote is something that I made up. It's a play on words, so to speak. It really should read: 'There's nothing like a cat sleeping on your head and giving you a migraine'.

In some categories certain editors are responsible for specific sub-categories. This way an editor can get to know what quizzes are needed and which duplicate quizzes already online.
