Firefox is right at my opinion.
At moment, the Quiz Batch appear randomly through the day, and some player take advantage from other (note: I said this against my self Wink

)

If possible I suggest to release every new batch in a predefinite time of the day, so everybody can have same chance to solve the puzzle.

ACK. I thake advantage from that, too, I have especially lots of time in the afternoon (there's often not that much to do in the office then).

I'm just thinking of coding a "quiz generator" using Flash, which will create random quizes directly from the screenshots on Lemon for training purposes... What do you guys think about it?

And I have quite a lot of time to surf in here while I am my office so it is to advantage for some of us, hehe Smile

The disadvantage is that the links appears as broken often when I check them out from the office, and sometimes they work. Don't know why Evil or Very Mad

I would not mind two quizes a day - one in the morning and one in the evening... it's great fun!

WiDDY.

I'm always looking for ways to while those dull office hours away and I'd love to see something like this.
It's a pity that as soon as someone gets the answers then the quiz is over for all. At the moment it is kind of like a fastest fingers on the buzzer type of thing. Is there any way that the quiz could be made to last a day or two?

OK, some very early WIP can be found here: http://www.widdy.de/quiz/quiz.html.

Currently, there is only a couple of games included, and it doesn't look to cool. It might also take some seconds till the fragment is created, depending on your connection speed.
Currently, it is written in Flash 4, but I'll have to use Flash MX - Kim's screenshots are GIF images, and Flash 4 only supports dynamic loading of JPGs, so I either could convert all the screenshots to JPG, or use MX...

Please remember the program is as strict as Tokafondo: The name of the game has to be entered exactly as it appears here on Lemon! Very Happy

Hello everybody. I build every batch of the QUIZ when I have time at the office. Sometimes I'm so busy getting in and out I can't even validate the answers as soon as they are posted.

I will try to post the QUIZ in the evening. It would be nice to have a new picture everytime an old one is guessed. It would be done in two ways:

- An automated system, like WiDDY suggests. This is the best one, but forget it about the link between games, and the fun that it has by being in the same forum everyone reads.

- Eliminate the system of batchs and replace a guessed picture when it gets guessed. This will get down the link between games, too. But it's in the forum anyway.

I have to go, now. All af you know that the pictures of this batch are done but I have to go and I will validate them later. I will update the ranking, too.
