Win fantastic prizes!
Before diving into the details of the game, I want to send out a hearty THANKS to the fanpop team. In particular, a big điểm thưởng to link who put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this feature.
I'd also like to thank all the great beta testers who helped us test and refine the feature for the past month. Finally, a thank bạn to link - the site that provided the nifty default biểu tượng sets for the spot pop câu đố and superquiz.
Now onto the nitty-gritty...the specifics about the quiz.
Playing the Quiz
bạn can play the câu hỏi kiểm tra in one of two ways.
1) The Super Quiz
link is the ultimate test of fanpopper knowledge. Superquiz pulls các câu hỏi from the full spectrum of topics on the site. Each câu hỏi will tell bạn what topic and channel it's about. Just start answering các câu hỏi to start racking up points and winning virtual prizes. If bạn run across a câu hỏi bạn don't want to answer, bạn can simply click the "skip this question" link to get a new question.
bạn can also use the filter in the right column of the superquiz ("show các câu hỏi for") to only display các câu hỏi from a specific channel (e.g. movies) hoặc to only display các câu hỏi from subjects bạn are subscribed to.
A small module on the lower right side of the page will display your superquiz progress (how many points you've scored, how many các câu hỏi asked and what your current prize is).
2) Individual Pop Quizzes
If bạn want zero in on a specific topic, we also feature pop câu đố for each người hâm mộ club (spot). So for instance, if bạn wanted to play The Office Pop Quiz, just go to The Office người hâm mộ Club and click the "quizzes" link below the spot banner (there is also a module on the right side of each người hâm mộ club homepage that will allow bạn to start playing).
Spot-specific câu đố have their own leaderboards and prize sets (see the small module in the lower right column of the spot câu hỏi kiểm tra pages).
Making câu hỏi kiểm tra Questions
To make a câu hỏi kiểm tra câu hỏi bạn will need to go to the người hâm mộ Club's câu hỏi kiểm tra and click the "add a question" link hoặc button.
When creating a câu hỏi bạn must:
* Ask a question
* Enter at least 2 possible answers
* Select the correct answer
Optionally bạn may:
* Add an image
* Embed a video
* Add hình ảnh for each of the possible answers
* Add some short trivia about the question
bạn have some limited editing capabilities once bạn đăng lên a question, but it's best to make sure that bạn have spelled everything correctly and have made the câu hỏi and answer factually correct before posting.
Additionally, here are some other tips for making good questions:
* Play the câu hỏi kiểm tra in the người hâm mộ club before posting new questions. This way bạn can avoid making duplicate questions.
* Avoid subjective các câu hỏi (e.g "Who do bạn like better?). Subjective các câu hỏi should be đã đăng as picks.
* Avoid các câu hỏi that are time-specific hoặc can be rendered incorrect bởi events in the future. For instance: "What's the highest grossing British film of all-time?". A better câu hỏi is "As of 2007, what's the highest grossing British film of all-time?". For TV shows that are still airing, a câu hỏi like "How many seasons of One cây Hill"? is also a bad idea (until the hiển thị has concluded).
* Avoid vague questions: "Who did John Kiss on tonight's episode?" is ambiguous if John kisses someone in every episode. A better câu hỏi would be "Who did John Kiss in the season 3 episode, 'The Hunted'"?
Reporting Quizzes
If bạn see an inaccurate, inappropriate hoặc badly worded câu hỏi kiểm tra question, bạn can flag it hoặc contact the fanpop team.
câu hỏi kiểm tra creators do have limited ability to modify their các câu hỏi after they are made, however we have curtailed these options in order to prevent any abuse.
Note that in some instances, the fanpop team will need to xóa các câu hỏi in order to be fair to the people participating in the game. If this happens, feel free to repost a corrected version of the question.

Today on June 6th, The Meebo bar was not working. Many những người hâm mộ could not log on and all of them thought that it was a glitch hoặc a fail. But then, according to snakemanfan, Google shut down Meebo permanently to work on Google+. It is totally damn stupid. I know that many people use the meebo bar in order for chatting on fanpop and other stuff, But this is just sad. Google want to dominate the whole internet. Just because Google+ is being updated just does not mean that bạn have to shut down the Meebo bar permanently. So today, We have to say our Final Words to the Meebo bar as it shuts down forever.
This will be a really sad thing for users who have used the Meebo Bar. I really do not know if they will replace it hoặc bring it back, But for now, Meebo is gone, Forever. :( :( :(
