50K ... no participation, yet the ladyboy one had a lot of participation and was 10K award, so what CL has some merit. To say the brotherhood was confused by the penalties is insulting their intelligence. It didn't confuse you nor did it confuse geoduck and I would assume many others:

Perhaps the solution is, in a couple of weeks we do another Quiz that incorporates these suggestions including the fact that each entry "costs" you an agreed number of "K's". That sounds like fun and simply neg'ing someone 2K's for example is relatively easy to do, anyone can do it, it is obvious to see whether an entry has been neg'd already or not.
Maybe discussion about the rules can be done in the Poll section where there us discussion about what future quiz topics could be interesting. I do think the suggestions such as trading K's for an entry and possible reward are excellent and think it would be fun to include.
Interest is what's going to attract. Big Karma award is not the main determining factor. Also, telling certain people to "stay out" won't either, since I think the brotherhood (except hunter) would like to see everybody participating - even if the prize is eventually not given to those mods. Encourage everybody to participate and have fun, like you did at the end of post #22 (which is why I decided to lodge an entry), and like CL said, keep it simple with a small K prize. A quiz shouldn't be seen as a way of making a significant jump to that next level. If people want to get to that significant jump to that next level, there are much better ways of doing it than a 50-point hunter Karma boost. It should be fun, with little risk, little focus on the prize (apart from being the victor) and everybody should have a stab. However, if a lot of K is going to be up for grabs, than there should be an entry fee, as high return should carry some risk.
