Have you ever heard for a little country called Slovenia?

Slovenia, Slovakia, Slavonia, Slobovia… Who’d tell them apart?

Okay, I’ve scrounged up about 120 screenshots for a given visual theme and was wondering what type of difficulty/size of a quiz you would like me to make from them. As it is, that’s a monstrous number of shots and my theme, for whatever reason, pops up in a lot of obscure games.

I could make a smaller quiz (40-50 shots) with emphasis on the easier games, or I could slam you with the whole thing. Does anyone have a preference?

Why not do 2 or 3 “chapters” of the theme, say 40 per chapter, starting out easy(ish) and getting progressively harder releasing a new “chapter” of the quiz after 3 or 4 days?

I was thinking the same thing.

If you’re making it a PM quiz D I would prefer to be ‘slammed’ with the whole 120 screenshots if you could perhaps allow a few weeks for the quiz to run. Splitting the quiz up is great for participants who just like to guess the screenshots they know but for a few of us who love to browse it can become repetitive to do that every time new screenshots are presented! Also I have more time some weeks than others!  Smile

I wasn’t thinking that the answers for each “chapter” should be given at the time of the new “chapter” being released Chrissie. All “chapters” could be left open for the stated length of the quiz which could comfortably be several weeks or whatever D deemed appropriate for him/herself.

Jabod, I wasn’t suggesting the answers being given at the end of each ‘chapter’ just that if you like to browse for screenshots rather than guess the ones you know that you have to re-browse each time a new set of screenshots appear & it’s preferable to browse for the 120 screenshots (or the remainder of the ones you don’t know - in my case probably about a 100!  Laughing ) in one go over time!  Smile

In my case Chrissie it would be around 117 given my normal scoring in these quizzes Grin but, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, I’m one of those that only answers on ones that I know, or think I know. I really admire the people that put in the effort to give a name to as many as they can possibly find, it’s just not my thing though. However, I bet the quiz compilers much prefer your type of responder to my type as it must make it much more worthwhile for them in setting the quiz.

Hey D!
I would like to see all 120 screenshots at once too. When will quiz start?

I’d like to see them all at once because I usually trip over some when looking for others.

Hey Jabod, if I set a quiz I very much appreciate those participants like yourself that just like to guess the pics you know as much as other more serious contestants that like to browse so you are just as worthwhile as a responder in my book!  Smile

I guess doing the giant screenshot dump is the more popular opinion so I’ll go with that.

The quiz will be PM based, start tomorrow night and end on Monday the 29th. That’s 10 days and includes two full weekends so that should be enough time I think, but I’m certainly open to negotiation on extending it if you feel it isn’t enough.

I’m working on a different kind of quiz and will post it in the next day or two.  Stay tuned.
