I was just looking through jazz's 520 some great quizzes, and when I got up to 400, it told me I had exceeded the limit of 400 quizzes. Just wondering if there is a way to see the other 120 quizzes? Thanks.

Actually, jazz only has 400 quizzes. He just found a way to make it look like he has 520 so we'd all be sufficiently impressed.

How long would it take to create 400 quizzes? In the seven months that I've been a member, I've only had time to create 19 quizzes. Are those people, that create hundreds of quizzes, professional quizmasters?

I fail to see how people could create up to 400 quizzes in the short time that FunTrivia has been a website. It would take at least 5 to 10 years to create quizzes exceeding or equalling 400 in number!

As Jazz is away for a while, I have to say that his prolific quizwriting is just part of him...and you'll notice that each one is different and full of new things...for the mere mortal like you and myself, it's hard to do that many quizzes and still remain innovative, for him, it's falling off a log. He has a real life, job etc and yet he still manages to produce quality material and enjoy things here...what a guy!

What I most admire about Jazz is his modesty and positivity though...he enables many people to create quality work here at QL, including yours truly!

So in answer to your question, creating great numbers of quizzes isn't as hard as creating great numbers and great quality quizzes, that's where Jazz excells.

I also would have troubles producing as many quizzes as though it's not exactly pulling teeth, it just comes and goes...I spend a whole month not creating anything..though I have five on my quiz board right now...and then bingo...I get them online.

Thanks for the report. 400 was a limit that I put in place to stop out-of-control automated search engines from crawling the site forever. I didnt actually think anyone would ever make 400

The limit has been increased.
