Sometimes we change the way things work on JetPunk. Here's a place to make a note of these changes. Click on each month to expand or collapse the changes for that month.
September 2023
September 28th - Streaks!

Announcing a new feature: Streaks!

Extend your streak each day by answering 5 questions correctly on any featured quiz. You can also disable streaks or change the time zone from Your Account settings.
September 13th - Confetti

Now, when you complete a quiz with 100%, confetti will explode briefly onto the page in celebration!

July 2023
July 10th - Equal Width Blocks

A new option in Text quizzes - "Equal Width Blocks". This option forces all blocks to have the same width for improved aesthetic.

June 2023
June 29th - JetPunk Shop

After many months (even years) of development and exploration, JetPunk now has its very own Shop! You can read all about it in our announcement blog.

Apr 25, 2023
On baseball and basketball quizzes, as that's where they appear. But also if you go to Interesting Facts from the navigation menu then you have buttons to go to other fact pages.

Apr 26, 2023
How do you guys choose the word search puzzle to be displayed on the front page each day? Just curious cuz February's puzzles seem to show up more often than the other ones.
+2
Level 68
Apr 26, 2023
They are half random and half scheduled. The random ones are selected based on date, total takes and more criteria. The reason the later ones appear more often is because they were better and hexagons were introduced later, so to ensure variety on the front page the puzzles can't be in numerical order.
+2
Level 48
Apr 26, 2023
I meant the February 2022 puzzles, the oldest ones. Is it just me or does the algorithm take into account the fact that they're old (and have relatively few takes)?
+2
Level 68
Apr 26, 2023
Oh, well in that case yes it's the algorithm taking into account they are the oldest. But also when I've scheduled a series then usually they're in numerical order
+2
Level 62
Apr 27, 2023
Any chance we could get the < input type="checkbox" > tag back for badge blogs?
+1
Level 68
Apr 28, 2023
Nope, because it serves no function (since the data won't be stored on refresh anyway, so it makes no sense).
+2
Level 64
May 2, 2023
Random idea: What if we had a graph on the profile which shows how much points you’ve gained over-time?
+2
Level 68
May 3, 2023
We do not have that data to show, specifically because we don't know when quizzes were featured or reset for points.
+4
Level 69
May 4, 2023
Is it possible to add a feature to type-ins in the quiz making menu to create type-ins for Chinese (and some other languages') names that have the surname first? This will be useful since there are many languages where the surname comes first.
+1
Level 68
May 4, 2023
JetPunk wouldn't handle this well though, since once you type the first part of the answer the rest is meaningless as your answer is already accepted.
+4
Level 69
May 4, 2023
You can't really change how the language structures its names, right? For example, in most quizzes, just "Mao" is accepted for "Mao Zedong". When making a Chinese (or similar language) quiz, it would just be more convenient to add type-ins if you could properly make the thing generate proper regex.
+3
Level 68
May 4, 2023
Oh okay I see. I'll see what can be done.
+3
Level 69
May 4, 2023
Thanks!

Level 65
May 4, 2023
Out of JetPunk languages, the languages with this structure are Hungarian, Finnish, Telugu, Chinese, and Japanese by the way.

May 6, 2023
Oh this is so good! Too many times I've had to dig through piles of browser history looking for a particular quiz. No more!
+3
Level 65
May 6, 2023
Is JetPunk able to fix the issue where some characters with diacritics have their diacritics included in type-ins? For example ṃ or ṇ aren't converted to m and n in type-ins.
+3
Level 58
May 6, 2023
And this makes it so that users can't get the question correct without having a diacritic keyboard.
+4
Level 68
May 7, 2023
I *can* add additional letters to this list, provided they are not used as anything else.
+2
Level 58
May 8, 2023
What do you mean by that?
+4
Level 68
May 9, 2023
So for example, If the character "£" was used as an E in one language and an F in another language, then we'd have a problem.
+3
Level 69
May 9, 2023
I doubt any other language uses these letters for something else, so I think it's fine.
+2
Level 58
May 9, 2023
No, it's fine. Diacritic M is always been used as M, as far as I know
+1
Level 58
May 12, 2023
So can you add them or is there some conflicting issue?
+2
Level 68
May 13, 2023

I’m not sure if this is a problem on JP’s end, but whenever I give up on a quiz to retry it, the page gets so laggy that the “start quiz” button doesn’t work. I have to open it again on a new tab for it to work.

This is not something I can reproduce or has been reported by anybody else. So I suspect an issue on your end. Do you have any browser extensions that might be causing it, and have you tried another browser / device?

Here's a suggestion, if you're ever looking for new ideas.

Have something that shows quiz takes growth over the past 24 hours, like some kind of line graph, in the Quiz and Answer Stats page.

May 18, 2023
A minigame idea: Generate questions from all the featured quizzes, and they must guess one of the answers, with the title of the quiz and question shown. Then, the user will do 5 questions (no answers in a row are allowed), and try to complete the set in the fastest time. Completely random. Could also be set between different languages.
+1
Level 59
May 18, 2023
Not all featured quizzes have questions, though.
+1
Level 58
May 19, 2023
Restricted to those with questions....
+1
Level 59
May 21, 2023
It's a good idea in theory, but because there are a lot of quizzes without questions (like Draw the World Map), one would have to double-check all of the answers to make sure there aren't any issues (like the Secret Country in Solve the Secret Country series would have to be special-cased). That would be a lot of work and a lot of bugs would make it through!

I would personally choose AD / BC because it's what I'm used to, but I don't think there's a standard
+1
Level 62
May 25, 2023
Most of QM's quizzes use AD / BC. But really, they're the same system, so who cares?

So this quiz couldn't be eligible for nominations if I resubmitted it? Or would it be fine because was submitted before last year's update?

Yes, but not for public use, it's only applied to specific featured quizzes which need it. It still has some repercussions so we don't allow it publicly

Idea: Add the formatting (bold, italics) found in blog editor to the comment place so html is not needed.
+3

I don't want the formatting to be advertised. Those that know html can try, those that don't will just do normal comments. And that's how it should be to avoid chaos in comments.

Level 59
Jun 13, 2023
Currently, the featured quizzes are treated as having the least nominations when sorting by Nominations. Is it feasible to have them go to the top instead, because theoretically nominations < featured?
+2
Level 68
Jun 14, 2023
We do this specifically that way so users with several features can more easily see their quizzes with the most nominations.

For most people their most taken quizzes are the features ones anyway, so sorting by featured is useless for most people.

+1
Level 70
Jun 14, 2023
How do quizzes get featured in non-English languages if they aren't able to be nominated? Do you and QM just scroll through recent user quizzes and feature the best ones?
+3
Level 68
Jun 15, 2023
Nominations only account for 1 quiz featured a week. The rest are chosen based on what we feel deserves it or is worthy of a wider audience. QM deals with English, I deal with non-english. For non-english I have translators which will recommend quizzes to me to be featured.

I honestly hadn't noticed the filter button until I saw the Changelog for June. I wish I had noticed it earlier since it's a great feature that would have saved me quite some time...
+2
Level 59
Jun 23, 2023
I like the idea to be able to save a quiz to your computer and continue it later. For example, if you needed to close the tab, you could save it and get a code and resume. it saves everything including the time, but the catch is that a loaded quiz cant earn points so you cant just use it to google the answers. it sort of functions like a pause button mixed with the functions of untimed.

reposted because i want answer :(

+1
Level 68
Jun 23, 2023
This is not feasible to do, because it means potentially unlimited numbers of codes for every quiz that needs to be stored in a database somewhere
+1
Level 59
Jun 24, 2023
For non-randomized quizzes, you could have characters correspond to answers (you could add time and pauses used, but I assume this would be treated as an untimed quiz).

For randomized quizzes, there could be a part at the beginning where the # corresponding to the prompts/answers used are listed.

Example: Let's say a quiz has 20 answers, of which 5 are chosen. These 5 are #8, #2, #12, #17, and #5 in that order. The first and third answers shown have been answered. We could have something like 8x2x12x17x5|ynynn.

+2
Level 68
Jun 24, 2023
The problem is, even if you make it deterministic so you don't have to store the codes, it is still going to be really long codes for the quizzes people actually use this one. Let's say you use the "all us counties" quiz, which has 3143 answers, then using 1 character per answer guessed is then 3143 characters long. Even if you used an encoding (e.g. converting binary to base 64) you still end up with over 500 characters long.

On top of this, it could never be for points this way because you could easily cheat and work out the codes. So therefore it feels pointless as it's not something almost anybody would use.

+1
Level 59
Jun 24, 2023
Do randomized quizzes count statistics from all takes or only the first one?
+2
Level 68
Jun 24, 2023
They count your first one for each answer. So your take all are included. The second take any answers you haven't seen before are included etc...
+2

does not show, but when "hielo" is searched

.

https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/1744710/paises-con-mayor-superficie-cubierta-por-hielo

.

does

I'm not sure if this is just a non-english problem

+2
Level 68
Jun 29, 2023
There's nothing wrong with the quiz or the language, it's simply that there's too many quizzes in Spanish and so your quiz doesn't have enough takes to be shown anymore through the search. Searching is based on the first 3 characters of your search, and we only load a limited number of results based on that.
+2
Level 59
Jul 5, 2023
Could a feature to add series within series be implemented?

Example: I have a series about a specific type of quiz about former countries. However, I would like to also include that in a larger series about former countries, since those quizzes generally appeal to the same audience.

Alternatively, the ability to add quizzes to 2 series would also be great.

+2
Level 68
Jul 5, 2023
Both ideas have been in our future plan for a while now, but it's more complicated than you might think as there's lots of assumptions across the site, one of which is that quizzes belong to 0 or 1 series.

It'll happen eventually, but not soon.

+1

Any chance I could be allowed to bypass the 10000 answer limit? I made a quiz with all type-ins for the first-level subdivisions, but it has 104635 answers.
+2
Level 68
Jul 8, 2023
Impossible. The limit is 10000 because outside of that the quiz becomes impossible to save and impossible to play. This limit was put in place because, before there was a limit nobody was able to get much above 10.5k and it almost broke the site.

If you go to a friend's public profile and they have private quizzes, it will say "Quizzes marked with *insert private symbol* are private and can only be seen by you and your friends."

That should be "Quizzes marked with *insert private symbol* are private and can only be seen by the user and their friends."

Also, it would be nice if one could filter by Private.

No. We don't just accept acronyms for everything, we accept them for those which are known widely by it.

Featured quizzes have always been allowed to have any number.

Nominations on quizzes released since the change are not allowed for quizzes with over 100 answers. But there is only 1 nominated quiz a week, but usually 5-10 new featured quizzes, so quizzes with more answers can, and always could be, featured by QM.

Aug 29, 2023
An Idea: Full screen mode for quizzes (PC only), so you can see more of map and not need to scroll.

An Idea: A competition of a topic. Say topic is Afghanistan. Once every day for a week, a new Quiz will be for that day. Sunday's quiz is "Afghanistan Country Quiz". The fastest time on that quiz wins that day. Until Saturday (the hardest quiz) the competition continues, until there is a grand winner of sorts. There could also be some badge for participating in competitions. Only takes during the day each quiz is assigned count. Ik I explained this horridly so I can explain on a point again.

Level 59
Sep 10, 2023
I like the idea, but that might be a bit too speed-typing focused. I don't think there would be much variety in winners.

That would just go at the end of the description, right? Where would I put the hex code for the color?

It's a usual css statement. So put it inside a style tag in the description and then add a css attribute inside curly braces { }.

I've never used CSS (except for copied code), so sorry for my confusion, but I can't figure it out. I thought it would look like this, but it didn't work:

#grid td.highlighted {color: #008080; }

CSS can be quite dangerous so I'd suggest you go read up on how it works before using it.

Regardless, "color" refers to the text colour which won't work on text quizzes because of the color animation that happens. What you want is "background-color", and to override the default yellow you will also want to add "!important" after the hex code and before the semicolon.

Yeah, I did some general research into it to get #grid td.highlighted {color: #008080; }.

Now I have this, but it's not working yet:

#grid td.highlighted {background-color: #008080 !important;}

I fixed it for you. As said before, and in the svg guide, css code needs to be surrounded by a "style" tag otherwise it won't be considered code.

In this quiz (not published), the grid will not update even though it is Auto. I think it's probably due to the large number of answers (4000+). Will this update naturally or is there something I can do about it?

Works fine for me when in Auto. It is not currently in Auto though, it is Manual.

With such large quizzes, when making a change you have to just wait for the grid to be redrawn each time. For me it took 10 seconds or so

There is some automatic settings yes, try the Hide Row or Hide Column options. They should hide everything that corresponds to that answer. Although I can't recall exactly how it works.

I think there's an issue with randomized stats sometimes. On this quiz, it lists a handful of countries that I guessed as 0% guessed. I took the quiz timed and I have never taken that quiz before.

Random stats only update periodically, because of the intensity. It's plausible that the update hasn't taken into account your take yet. Perhaps you were the first to get it right on that random combination also.

How do you make it so one question has multiple answers?
+2
Level 59
Oct 11, 2023
For separate answers counted: You could have each answer separately in the grid and merge the questions in the table.

Counted as one answer: You can use slashes or vertical bars to separate answers, like Zambia | Zimbabwe.

It would be quite helpful if you could select and hide multiple cells at once.

Also, it might be useful to add a choice for hidden cells with multiple answers so they can be revealed when one of the answers is guessed or when all of answers are.

+1
Level 68
Oct 15, 2023
The latter has been requested before and is a lot more complicated to introduce.

The former is also difficult because we do not have the concept of selecting multiple cells on JetPunk, and if we did it could have issue with all other actions (e.g. editing text, adding rows, merging cells, drag and drop etc...)

Question: When India overtakes China in Jetpunk's estimates, will we have to reset a ton of quizzes, or will there be some sort of compromise so that 200~ points are not lost on people's accounts?

A lot of those quizzes will just be swapping answer orders, so I don't think it's quite so drastic.

I'm pretty sure anytime you change a quiz, it's reset and points are lost? Though probably QM and Stewart can wield their JetPunk superpowers and just change without losing points
+3
Level 68
Oct 21, 2023
The only changes which force a stat reset is when the number of answers change.

If answers themselves change but not the total number, we'll recommend a reset that only me/QM can bypass.

If you're just reordering answers of fixing a typo then stats won't reset.

Similarly if you change anything that's not answers (e.g. typeins, the grid in step4, any hints...) Then that won't trigger a reset either.
