JetPunk Magazine - Summer 2025

Hello, readers. Welcome back to the JetPunk Magazine. Before we begin, some quick things to note:

As you may or may not know, user Astana has left JetPunk. I do not know if she will return, but she has given me permission to write this next blog for the Magazine. If it is well received, I may continue to make them every so often if Astana is okay with that. It is her series after all. I simply didn't want the Magazine to fade away, since I enjoy writing articles for it. If you want to write your own article, feel free to share your thoughts. It doesn't have to be strictly JetPunk related, but should be appropriate for the matter. I will also cover JetPunk topics myself, as Astana has done previously. So, without further ado, here is the Summer 2025 JetPunk Magazine Issue. Enjoy!

During the first few months of 2025, the Multiple Choice City Quiz (MCCQ) trend began, which was a mass production of many multiple choice quizzes highlighting hundreds of cities around the world. This trend saw dozens of users participate in creating their own multiple choice quizzes for the activity, adding cities to the rapidly growing list. These quizzes display 10 questions each (usually), being quick, yet sometimes tricky and getting straight to the point. Around 100 of these quizzes got Featured from the community, with Quizmaster making and Featuring his own as well. The goal for this trend was to complete a playlist of around 100 Featured quizzes to bring to the site. This goal has been achieved, and I, along with many other users, have gotten at least one Feature from partaking in this activity. Quizmaster appreciated the help, and the community enjoyed making their own quizzes. Most of the Featured quizzes were of popular or well-known cities, which adds to the fun.

As of June, the MCCQs should be hitting the Front Page soon. The goal was for a different city to be on the Front page every day during these couple months, keeping the cycle and displaying continuation. The order, while not exactly this, will be determined by which MCCQs got Featured first. It will be close to this order nonetheless, although some quizzes may be on the Front Page earlier than others in the order of being Featured.

This trend will hopefully be exciting for JetPunk as a whole, and I can't wait to see my friends' quizzes in the spotlight, including my own one quiz. Some of the people I know got quite the many Features for this trend, like users baptistegorce and Gademotsili99. Others got just a few, which is still great!

Overall, this trend was fun to watch unfold, and the entertainment should be just around the corner.

I will make a list of all the MCCQs in order of appearance, separated by the months. Here's the list:

On June 1 of 2025, Quizmaster posted a quiz titled "Click the U.S. State on the Map". This quiz isn't a 'Click Map' quiz, rather an entire new format rolled out by Quizmaster for the site. The quiz is quite simple - given a random U.S. State, you must click its location on the map. While the idea is great, the format is still not perfect (as of writing this blog). Clicking smaller states like Rhode Island is difficult with a mouse, but on Mobile, it's another level of challenging. If the format is to be added to JetPunk in the next few weeks (as said by Quizmaster himself), then some minor changes will have to be made. It's still in Beta right now, but will hopefully be cleaned up as needed.

Of course, Quizmaster will perfect it for us when it's ready to be released, and it sounds exciting! Although, as of now, I can't vision too many unique quizzes being made. Certainly the continents, and for states/provinces, etc. for individual countries will be possible, but users may need their own SVGs to do this. Until then, I can only envision the possibilities of this new format. But hopefully we can get some more great quizzes for the site!

Since I can't really do this monthly anymore, here is a little reminder. I doubt anyone wants to edit their Jeppy, but just in case, here is your reminder.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out this blog with all the details. You can request your own Custom Jeppy in the comments of that blog, and I'll be more than happy to make you one! You can find your, and other, Customized Jeppies here!

I can't really think of much to write about to be honest, so here is a bit from me personally about the JetPunk users who impress me the most in 2025.

A shorter issue of the Magazine, but I did it all myself with a mostly uneventful phase of JetPunk currently. I wish there was a bit more to write about, but oh well.

If you wish to write an article entry of your own, make a blog and collab it with me. I would appreciate this help, since I can't think of much to say on my own. If Astana is okay with me continuing her series, I may make some more this year, and in coming years. Only time will tell.

Thank you for reading, and I hope our community can continue to grow. See you soon.
