Quiz Notification?

I have a red 1 notification above the quiz link in the top navigation bar, but clicking it tells me quizmaster is closed. And the notification won't go away.

The quiz is no more.


Let us mourn.

Or failing that, let us Morn.

Well that surprise was ruined. I bought a new addon that will allow us to create quizzes and I was learning how to set it up. I had it set for only Admins, but apparently that means that only admins can take the quiz, but everyone sees it.

There are some problems with it that will prevent me from turning it on until the dev takes care of it.
  • The Quiz alert shows the number of quizzes total, not how many you haven't taken. So if there are 7 quizzes and you take 6, t'll still say 7!! That's just dumb!
  • If you take a quiz, it send you an email! Oh hell no. I rather don't think people will like getting an email with the results. Or at least let them opt out.
  • All the default quizzes are very Euro-centric. Like the sitcom quiz talks about Fawlty Towers and stuff like that. And I use Fawlty Towers as the example, but it's the only one I recognized.
So I planned on rolling this out once the bugs were worked out, but it decided I needed to show everyone early.

Shit, I couldn't tell you who won best actor or what the best movie was.

Was it Catherine Zeta-Jones?

Edit: Oh, you said actor. No clue, then.

And I don't know why. I have it turned on and there are four quizzes there. Not sure why it shows 5.

Yeah, I figured it out. I don't think the dev has English as a first language and some of the options are wonky. The 5 on the tab shows the quizzes added within the last 7 days, not the ones left to take.

I have a ticket in about the Leaderboard.

And the quizzes are very euro-centric, aren't they? We'll have to make our own.

Does someone have to be a moderator or admin in order to make new quizzes? I imagine you could find a quizmaster or two that would keep that area fresh.

You'll be able to add them after the update.

Movies are the one area where I actually take Charlie seriously. His obvious pop culture trolling aside.

I don't care much for how you have to create a quiz one question at a time.

You can actually set them up and have them imported. I'll export one for you so you can see the format.

I call BS on that ballpark quiz. I'm getting docked for wrong answers where the poster never assigned an answer to the question.

I also kind of don't like how you can't view the results on quizzes you made. Or see if a quiz is made by one of us or if it's a premade one or that.

That's just it. I did assign answers. I don't know why it counted those as missed...

Here's the format of what it takes to import a quiz. The file is in XML format.

I answered every question, but the 6 I got "wrong" have no correct answer when I check the results.

I see what he's saying now and he's right. Example: Q3 has no right answer.[DOUBLEPOST=1410960832,1410960662][/DOUBLEPOST]I fixed the Jacob's Field one and if you can't fix them I can in the Admin panel.

When I d/l'ed the XML file, it said every single one had an answer. :S

EDIT: OHHHH wait I saw what happened. Damn extra spaces.

I just thought I sucked at the quiz, because none of the park names are the same as they were when I could watch baseball.

I tried importing an updated version of the quiz (with the answers correct and formatted properly)... it added them to the existing questions. When I went to delete the older questions, wouldn't let me delete them. When I tried deleting all the questions, it wouldn't let me do that, either...

I think you have to delete the quiz and import the file into a new quiz.

I blew away all the questions. You can import now.

Okay, I cleared the formatting, re-uploaded it - and still got six wrong?

Send me the file and I'll get it updated.

But I fixed the answers! Let me see if the rest of the questions have the right answers in place.
