	I recieved my ipod today. Thank you Bill. Thank you Dave. Thank you People Quiz.

	Bill, Yea we can add thumbs fairly easily. It's on my list G2, Yes the false answers can be the toughest part of a quiz to write

bill	2009-11-19 10:18:27
	Thanks Grant! I'm a firm believer that everyone has a favorite person(s) or sport or movie - or whatever about whom they love to read - or take a quiz. Now getting them to write one is another story. I think a lot has to do with "the stop and go" culture of the internet. People don't want to take the time. Another reason is that people are not good writers or they don't think they can write. To some degree, that is an issue. I won't sit and correct ghastly punctuation errors or gruesome grammar. However, I will to some degree - depending on whether I think the quiz is worth bringing on board. So, most people should not be afraid even if their writing skills are not the best. You're right, it is often difficult to come up with good fake answers!. I think the average Joe could find a little bit of something at PeopleQuiz that they would like even if they're not well versed in the obscure. Finally, I just don't think people "scan around" when they stop by. They're focused on what they're reading and that's it. If they knew about the contests, I think they would be more likely to become motivated. Thanks for your input and please share our site with others in AUS!

	Bill, a candid response! 1) It takes time to alight on a subject that entices one to spend the time. 2) The right answers are easy. It's the other three that always take time. 3) This site is a bit like membership of MENSA. (no I'm not a member!) The average Joe would find most of the quizzes beyond his/her ability and/or interest level. I love it but know most people don't share my passion for the obscure!

	Gang: I ask you - what other site is awarding iPODS for authoring quizzes??? NONE!!!! Actually, I can't believe we're not going broke by now with all the iPODS we should be giving away! Honest opinion guys, why do you think more players are not gunning for this prize? People don't like to write? People don't know about the contest? Other?...

bill	2009-11-18 19:42:47
	G2: It's fixed. Thanks much! Lynne: You're welcome. Enjoy it. And, please tell everyone you know about this awesome contest!!!! Dave, nice job. Man, it would be nice to have the president's thumbnail as part of that list....

0zero0	2009-11-18 17:47:50
	Bill and Dave,,, I got my IPOD in the mail today. Thank you very much! :)

dave	2009-11-18 14:30:58
	Hey everyone, We've got a cool new page that lists out quizzes on presidents. I don't hve a link to it anywhere else yet so you can just jump there from her to check it out for now. www.peoplequiz.com/us-presidential-trivia.html

grant228	2009-11-17 04:49:15
	Bill, thanks for correcting the apostrophe in the answer. Could you also amend the D option which also contains the elementary error?

bill	2009-11-16 21:38:32
	Milo: Of course! It will be mailed in early December. BTW, your first one was mailed today.

milomilo	2009-11-16 11:30:09
	So, with my 7 new personality quizes, did I win my second ipod?

dave	2009-11-16 10:46:58
	G2, Give me the full page address of that quiz. I suspect its on our development site, which shouldn't be publicized, except that goole did find ands crawl some of those pages in the past. In fact, if you can, email me the address so google doesn't grab it again.

bill	2009-11-16 08:10:35
	G2, I have a feeling you're bringing up a cached version from our development platform. Dave, do you concur? Also, citizen's is now citizens'. Great quiz! I know I would NOT pass it without seeing the answers in advance (as I do with all new quizzes, of course).

grant228	2009-11-16 02:36:20
	Dave, regarding the Ben Franklin quiz, I found it when I did the search. The quiz is numbered 983 and has been taken twice. It is quite different to any other people quiz I've done. There is no photo either. When I've done the quiz and then go to "home", the format is also very different.

grant228	2009-11-15 23:14:42
	Bill, as a teacher I'm hanging my head in shame regarding my latest quiz on the French Revolution. Could you amend my apostrophes on the word "citizen's"? As there was more than one citizen in the army etc, the apostrophe should be "citizens'" My face is red!

dave	2009-11-13 09:02:44
	Sorry G, missed you

GrantBeagle	2009-11-13 07:03:21
	Dave RU On Line ? I'll have the ChataBox open for the Rest of the Hour GB

dave	2009-11-12 09:29:19
	G2, Not sure what happened for you. It took ok for me (See below). Can you try it once more? Also what OS/Browser are you using, and what kind of network connection. I'm thinking that hopefully it was just a temporary glitch.


bill	2009-11-12 07:30:59
	G2, don't get me started on the OJ thing. Major loser who got lucky by having the world's dumbest jury.

grant228	2009-11-12 04:49:44
	Dave, I did a search on Benjamin Franklin and found an odd quiz written by you on this great man. The odd aspect was the format was different to the usual quizzes and following my completion of it didn't give me the correct answers. It has some strange gobbledegook! What's the story?

grant228	2009-11-12 03:24:50
	Bill, thanks for that. It was obviously one of those mysterious computer glitches! Regarding O J, from this side of the planet, the famous glove didn't fit because they let him try it on in court wearing that other protective glove. It would have been like Cinderella trying on her glass slipper wearing a football sock!

bill	2009-11-11 22:13:58
	Grant2, your "Famous Missourians" is on board. Thanks much!

BubblyJolie	2009-11-11 21:25:11
	Dave, Oh okay I got it now. What ever happened to you spelling it Bubblie? haha lol ♥ BubblyJolie™

dave	2009-11-11 14:38:04
	Bubbly, yes, when you search the biography indexes (click "biographies" above, then select a letter or month, depending on whether you want to search by last name or birthday) then you'll see personality quizzes listed for people that have them, with a hyperlink to the quiz. You can see in the example below that Jim Abbott and Paula Abdul both have Personality Quizzes. You can also see if they already have a bioquiz here, but theres no link, since your trying to guess the correct person on bioquizzes.


BubblyJolie	2009-11-11 13:18:01
	Well I looked to see if there was a quiz but I couldn't tell if there was or not then again it was three in the morning so I was a little out of it. Well Bill okay thanks I will do that. :) ♥ BubblyJolie™


bill	2009-11-11 07:42:03
	Bubbly: In the case of OJ Simpson, I would have no problem with two quizzes on the same person. You could write one quiz on his personal/professional life and another quiz on his criminal life.


bill	2009-11-11 05:46:22
	Grant2, looking into it....
