So I think something fun to institute would be a biweekly (that's twice weekly, as opposed to every two weeks, as the term can mean either) Pokemon Trivia Quiz. I've produced these for fun amongst my friends and members of my former RPG site in the past, and think that we could get some fun out of some friendly competition.
The rules would be simple... no more than 5 questions per quiz, with a new quiz posted every few days (for example, Monday and Thursday postings). I'd be writing the questions, at least to start, and would be fine with judging the results as well. Each quiz would be worth a maximum of 10 points; weighted with more points for questions with multiple correct answers, and fewer points for single-answer questions. Players are welcome to participate in as many quizzes as they like, but can only have one entry per quiz, and may not edit their entry once submitted. I can keep a running tally of accumulated points as each quiz is graded, if that is deemed appropriate.
The main wrinkle this quiz presents, however, is that it is posted online, and thus opens up the possibility of the use of online resources to simply look up the answers to every question. It would be presumed that we can all be dutiful enough to not give in to this temptation for the sake of the game, but I thought I'd open the floor up to my fellow members to seek your advice as well.
