A Challenge to complete: AskFT Researcher (Master Level)

At FunTrivia Headquarters, we do sometimes get complaints. Complaints like "The questions in 'Obscure' and 'Impossible' are too hard" are common and easily solved (play some of the easier games), but what do we do with the occasional "The questions in 'Obscure' and 'Impossible' are too easy"?

Hmmm... let's put a new area on the site where members can ask questions whose answer they can't even find themselves. Then, let loose the membership and see who of them can research just the correct information to answer the seemingly unanswerable question. That should solve this problem, especially if they can also complete a challenge by doing so! [ 300 winners so far. ]

A Challenge to complete: Excellence (Very Difficult)

If you're a creative person - and every quiz author is - you will find that your work is seeing some great feedback and some less well-meaning comments as well. But, we'll go with the words of one of the world's foremost game designers here:

"If everyone likes your game but no one loves it, it will fail." (Mark Rosewater, long-term lead designer of Magic: the Gathering).

And this is true for quizzes as well. If you have that quiz that everyone thinks is average to good, people will play it - but few will remember it. If, on the other hand, just a few dozen of your players consider it excellent, you've probably given them something to make the day worth it.

And that's what this badge is about - being excellent. Making your quizzes loved. Don't worry if it's not universally loved - you can always care to those player with the next quiz. And the next.

You'll need it anyway, because if you want this badge, you'll need to accumulate a thousand "Excellent" ratings. Whether you do that with one quiz or a hundred doesn't matter. It's just about putting a smile on a thousand faces.

And don't worry about the naysayers - those poors might hurt your stars, but they can't harm you here.

(Note to quiz players: This badge of course makes "excellent" ratings special - like a small brother to Editor's Choice. Please be neither too stingy nor too generous with them. If the quiz brightened your day or just had some aspect you loved - by all means, hit that button! [ 1229 winners so far. ]
