MB Member's Quiz
 
So I was thinking about putting together a little quiz for members to take in a specific thread. A basic "about you" type quiz, with questions like the Saturday 6-Pack but a bit more tailored to getting to know your fellow MBers.

I'd need the community's help with coming up with the questions for it. So shoot.

Paedantic Basterd 12-20-2011 05:54 PM

Sort of like the Member Interviews, but catered so that everyone gets what they want (which is to be interviewed)?

Burning Down 12-20-2011 05:55 PM

I miss the Saturday 6 Pack. I thought about reviving it once but I couldn't think up any decent questions :(

I'd be up for this, though. I think I was nominated by like 3 or 4 different people as being the "most enigmatic member" :laughing: So are you looking for questions that are more personal in nature, then?

someonecompletelyrandom 12-20-2011 05:55 PM

Yeah, think one of those stupid FB or chain-mail quizzes that gets passed around.. only we'll probably have more of a focus on music. Since this is, after all, the point of the website.

Precisely.

s_k 12-20-2011 06:17 PM

In favor :)

Paedantic Basterd 12-20-2011 06:49 PM

I particularly like the idea of a media focus. A little bit personal, a little bit general, a lot a bit musical. I'd be down for that.

CanwllCorfe 12-20-2011 06:53 PM

I'm in.

someonecompletelyrandom 12-20-2011 06:58 PM

I think we should start with a first name. That would only make sense right? Then maybe an occupation?
  • First name: Tim
  • Occupation: Copywriter, Podcasting

Paedantic Basterd 12-20-2011 07:01 PM

Favourite _________ are probably a given, whether that's television shows, books, or colours.

Definitely. And then maybe for the musical favorites we'll go more in depth. Favorite Genres, Favorite Artists, Favorite Albums, Favorite Songs, Favorite Lyrics.

Then for the more probing questions we can ask things like "What originally got you interested in music" etc.

Scarlett O'Hara 12-21-2011 04:21 PM

Good idea Conan!

Here's some suggestions:

Biggest Regret
Longest Relationship
Marital Status
Mental State...:laughing:

Yeah that would be good. Like in my case,

First name: Tim
Occupation: Unemployed or Masonry Laborer, whatever is worse


I quite like everything that's been added so far! It shall make for an interesting thread.

s_k 12-21-2011 05:37 PM

First record or CD ever bought, obviously.

Burning Down 12-21-2011 06:07 PM

  • How old were you when you got drunk for the first time? (Inspired by Vanilla's hangover thread)
  • Most embarrassing moment of your life so far?
That's all I can think of for now :laughing:

Scarlett O'Hara 12-22-2011 02:19 AM

How old were you when you lost your virginity? Or have you lost it?
How many countries have you visited?

anticipation 12-22-2011 02:26 AM

Place of Origin?
Dick Size?

:laughing: If both of these aren't included then I'm not playing.

Queen Boo 12-22-2011 09:44 AM

Forgive me but this seems a teeny little bit gay. Can we just bring back the 6 Pack?

I don't think there'd be anything terribly wrong with recycling some of the better questions from the six pack for a sort of Best of edition. The Saturday Six Pack always helped to bring a sense of community to the forum and there's definitely been enough of a turn over in members since we last consistently ran it to make even old questions fresh and interesting.

Goofle 12-22-2011 11:58 AM

Favourite cheese.

This idea is fine if you don't get too personal with it.

Maybe put a question cap like 20.

That's a good idea. I don't want to be answering questions for an hour :laughing:

what did you want to be when you were a kid?
phobias?
ideal pet?
what would you bring on a desert island (or the usual situational stuff)

s_k 12-22-2011 05:41 PM

My surname is Kraft (srsly)

TheBig3 12-22-2011 06:37 PM

What were your first impressions of MB? Has it changed?

Paedantic Basterd 12-22-2011 06:42 PM

Support Big3's question. Maybe also "What brought you here" and "What keeps you coming back".

bob. 12-23-2011 11:07 AM

soooo at some point is somebody going to make an actual "quiz"?

i need structure damnit! :)

Rubato 12-23-2011 11:12 AM

The first question should be "are you just far too cool to answer this quiz?" that way nobody feels left out <3

Urban Hat€monger ? 12-23-2011 11:13 AM

When you read your own contribution to the forum does it make you weep.

That's not a bad question, it's about as Gouda as it can Brie. Sorry, I am a cheese pun Munster and hope I didn't make an Asiago of myself in this post. Feel free to borrow my Sharp cheese puns, you have my Parmesan. And remember, it's Cheddar to pun with cheese than not at all. I'll keep going if you're not Feta-p with this.







I'll be here all week.

I apologize for being an American idiot.

someonecompletelyrandom 12-26-2011 01:19 AM

I'll use the reasonable suggested questions and flesh them out to put the quiz together. Good work here people.

FETCHER. 02-08-2012 04:40 AM

Is this happening? I missed this thread and think its a great idea :).

i always found that strange

you have always talked at length about yourself

my guess is that the 3 or 4 people never go to the lounge

or is blindsided by simpsons' guy
