Am I Allowed To Do Quizs ?

[Ann]

hya everyone im just writing this to ask kindly if im allowed to do quiz,s only whenever I put one on chat and games i always get told that its already on the forum but sometimes i do check and they dont seem to be there but the thing thats annoying me is why is it only me that has to stop doing a quiz and magic shoes can put alot of games and quizs on here i would love to know more about this thanks :puzzled:

[Sam!]

Of course you can!! :D

[officialleafan]

Yes!

[Ann]

yes but the prblem i have is when i want to put a quiz on i do look through the past threads and the game isnt on there but when i start a quiz i then find out that its already on the forum the help i need is mainly what shall i do if i cant find the quiz i want to do and when it has to stop because some one has found that thread on the forum its confusing me on what to do :shrug:

[Sam!]

Well what do you want to do?

[Lauren]

Use this: http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/misc.php?action=search

Then type in some of the words from the title of the quiz and search if it's already existed. If it hasn't then post it. :)

[Ruth*Star]

Also i think you have to ask james if you can do it.

I think thats just with TiBB gameshowy type things?

[Ann]

yes thank you Lauren for explaining all of that and I will start looking into that link youve left me to look at too cheers friend and ruth*star its just for the quick quizs like DT does often thanks for that you are all kind people :flowers::flowers:

[Matt08]

I can't see the problem with you starting a quiz even if it's been done before. It's up to the admins and mods if they think that your quiz should be allowed to go ahead and not members :dance2:

But what's the point in having two identical/similar quizzes?

If the no duplicate threads rule applies in the Big Brother forums then it should apply in all the other forums too...

[~Kizwiz~]

I can see where your coming from Ann, but a forum this size and age most quiz's have been done, unless they are gameshow's which sometimes have to be agreed with Admin and mods as to whether they can go ahead.

Things like word association, counting games, story games and last person to post etc have been done already and as such there isnt a need to open up a new thread

There are 38 pages of chat and games so odds are that you will only rarely find a game that hasnt been done already

[Ann]

thank you very much for that kiz i will keep all that in mind i love how you have explain to me about that thanks friend for being very understanding and i will do as you said too cheers :hug::hug:

Couldn't places like Chat and Games and General Chat be cleared out so that it's easier to browse and would bring along some new games etc, or even be put into an archive.

[Ann]

that is a very good point there Matthew very well said too :laugh3:

[Callum]

Definitley. Your entitled to do post whatever you want on here Ann, even if it's been done before, there's really no harm in making another, unless it's the exact same which I find pointless. But I think you have every right to post them Ann. :thumbs:

[Ann]

thank you callum for that very nicely pointed out too dear friend :kiss:

But who's to say what should stay and what should go? If a thread has been made originally then surely it should be used??

I dont really know what the best opinion is really

Why should the mods delete perfectly legitimate threads so they can be replaced with exactly the same thing?

I did put in that post OR archive them.

[Ruth*Star]

The Archive idea isn't a bad idea because, it would preserve the threads which older members participated in and they'd be nice to read that's my opinion.

It wouldn't be exacly the same thing. People would adapt the games and they would be different.

[Captain.Remy]

Ann, there is no problem about doing quizs, unless a one like yours has been made. :kiss:

It wouldn't be exacly the same thing. Poeple would adapt the games and they would be different.

And what if people wanted to stick to the tried-and-tested?

Then that would be perfectly fine, TiBB is changing all the time and good moments in TiBB off-topic history should be preserved.

So if people wanted to stick to the same games, then essentially you would be replacing perfectly legitimate threads with the same thing...

Most people want to see different though, and there's not just these games in General Chat and Chat and Games either......

I agree, I don't know why people want to remove some old threads. Why not bumping them. I don't know if you realized but so many old threads are back, so why not keeping it up.

How do you know?

Only 10 people have replied in this thread you know.

It's not exactly representative of the whole of TiBB...

Same= Repetitive and boring
Different= New and Exciting

That's how I see it and it's my opinion. Other people may see it totally different.

So what you're saying is, you find threads like the Word Assosciation game repetitive and boring, but if it was to be archived and replace with exactly the same thing, then that new thread would be "new and exciting"?

:rolleyes:

It depends how it was run. Anyway i'm not replying to this thread again because what usually happens is that opinions clash and stuff like this turns into a row.

But in my example, I said it was exactly the same...

[~Kizwiz~]

As far as I can see it, admin wont delete a game just so a very similar one can be set up again.

Its as simple as that. If there is a game already on the board then that one stands

Heya everyone!

Im just writing this to ask kindly if i'm allowed to do quiz's, only whenever I put one on chat and games I always get told that its already on the forum. Sometimes i do check and they dont seem to be there but the thing that is annoying me is why is it only me that has to stop doing a quiz, and magic shoes can put alot of games and quizs on here. I would love to know more about this!
Thanks :puzzled:

Ann,
You started a thread called 'The Chain Game' and I asked you, does it work like Word assocation? As it does, the game was pointless, as a game with over 1000 pages already existed of this game, so making a new thread for it is pointless.

Of course you can hold Quiz's, when have I ever said "Quiz's are my thing. No body else can do them"?. To my belief, you have never held a Quiz before, so how come I have stopped you?

And aren't all of these post's a bit pointless, seeing that all I said was this?



sorry but Im not entering any of these games again because at the moment i feel annoyed but Im not saying why




Baz it isnt you Im annoyed at mate its Magic shoes for what he did last night when he ruined a game i tryed to do and its made me annoyed how he did it but if you wish to read more about it ive put a thread about it on suggestions and help so soz Baz Im still your friend




are you the main presenter for tomorrow night baz?




only magicshoes upset me last night by stopping a game i did on here and its annoyed me for what hes done too



ok then Baz mean as you are so kind to ask me i wont refuse yea but its just for you


Many more post's like this exist around the forum... just because of this

Then why didnt you say this over U2U?
I asked you there, as you didnt reply after three attempts, i had to ask you here.

And please... use full stops! :thumbs:

[Ann]

I didn,t reply over u2u because I was busy chatting on msn. Now can I ask you very kindly not to spread my private information all over the forum please as i,m normally a private person that dosen,t like their information over the internet can we now put this behind us as its just getting silly now thank you.:wavey:

I am confused?

Private Information? :joker:

Yeah sure I will forgive you, at least we have addresed it! :thumbs:

P.S - I sent the U2U's over a two day period - You have been on MSN all that time?

[Matt08]

Hey Magic-Shoes there's no need to insult Ann, she's done nothing wrong. All she did was put a suggestion forward.

[Ann]

thank you Matthew for that :kiss:

[Callum]

Magic-Shoes no need to get like that. Ann wants to put it all in the past, so it would be great if you could also co-operate.

[Sunny_01]

Woah - I think everyone is jumping on Magic-shoes here and that it seems a little unfair. He simply stated and quoted something that had upset him and that was relevent to this thread.

So if it's all over and done with can you all just hug and kiss already!!

I don't think that it was fair that Magic was correcting a member's weaknesses in such a way, seems a bit unfair. Anyway, let's all forget about this and move on :wink:

when ever i do a quiz, i allways set one up in the Chatroom
