    Not necessary her text to appear on the site-Gone with the wind.But to be added at the list of authors of the forum and have special threads concerning her work. So, Margaret Mitchell and a thread GONE WITH THE WIND where we colud talk about the certain book.

    Can we submit an entire quiz, or this supposed to be a group effort? I ask because of the stipulation in the first sentence of this thread: "members can then submit a single question to a quiz topic." If I have a number of questions and answers on one topic, does that constitute a properly designed quiz?

    Jean-Baptiste yes you can submit your own quiz apart from this topic (which is more suited for people who don't want to submit more than one question at a time.) We prefer quizzes to be at least 10 questions long.

    Just click the "Quizzes" link at the top of the main forums page, then "Submit a Quiz".

    Remember to select from the drop down menus "Number of Questions" and "Answers Per Question" (which can be 2,3, or 4, and will be the same for all questions) That seems to be the number one thing people forget to do when submitting a quiz

    Thanks for your help, Logos. I'm ready to submit my quiz, but the drop down menus that you mention don't seem to be working for me. They are there, but they are blank and inoperative. If I submit it without this step will things get irreparably messed up? Also, is there anyway for me to preface this quiz, to explain that it is not meant to be overly scholarly, but that it is intended to arouse interest in the book in those who may be unfamiliar with its humor, or is that just to be tacit and assumed?

    Jean-Baptiste, sorry, since the recent forum update the quiz area has been getting some tweaks, probably why the drop menus are blank, so if you can hold off for a bit, I'll post here when things are smoothed out.

    Yes you can preface your quiz in the Description text field and that is appreciated so people know what they are getting themselves into

    Yes, I have to say I'm impressed with you diligence, Logos. You seem to be everywhere. And thank you for fixing this glitch.

    Heh... not that logos doesn't do a lot of work, but she merely noticed the fix, the quizman did it.

    Could not find phrase 'quiz_submitted'. What is wrong??? I make 20 questions and answers and then Could not find phrase 'quiz_submitted'. ???
