Why does it suck? Can you please clarify what you mean by that?
The questions as well as the answers are ambiguous, the distribution of error points is not transparent at all, the quiz doesn't stop automatically if you fail, there is way too much text before it starts and many groups do it together with their newbies anyways, because they also say it's stupid (okay, maybe this community aspect is the only good thing about the quiz...^^). I know this from Bielefeld and different districts of Berlin.
Well so the quiz can be improved- as well as the questions and explanations. There is nothing wrong with taking the quiz together and talk about it.
Oh I'm not against the quiz in general, just against the quiz as it is right now. That's why I'm happy to have it as an actively discussed topic again (and, you know, normally that works best, by making harsh statements like 'lets get rid of it!'... )
The quiz was the solution to the problem of 1) to many people joining the communities without being well informed 2) putting to much workload already on the volunteers to introduce knew people to the world of foodsharing 3) having foodsharing explain to 30 newcomers and having 60% turned away because "it's not what they thought it would be" or being surprised how much effort there is behind it, or "just wanting to have a look" Try putting yourself in the position if someone who has to deal with all the workload of introductions and explanations etc. and come up with a solution that works better . I am ok with the quiz because i know that people joining have some understanding of foodsharing. I do understand it might be difficult for towns that are just starting.
I am sick of harsh statements because it is populistic and infind it frustrating- because instead of having a nice open discussion about it i get pushed into defense. Thanks for ruining my day and i don't feel like pursuing this topic anymore.
The quiz as it is right now definitely sucks, so I'm happy this be discussed again! I'm very interested in this! Please keep me/us updated @Kristijan Miklobusec!
