JetPunk Change Log
In the past, there have been issues where Brightness and Contrast settings do not match the resulting image. This has been fixed, and we've also expanded to include Saturation! (So you can do grayscale with saturation=0).
As well as this, you can now crop the image on mobile as well!
Interesting facts not interesting enough for you? Well take a look at JetPunk's Baseball Facts instead!
You can now use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+S to start any quiz, and arrow keys can now be used to navigate the grid in Tile Select quizzes.
On Tag pages you can now filter quizzes by only showing those which are untaken.
Errors in Typeins are now more prominently shown, and can be easily extracted by clicking the "Show Errors" button on the right-hand side.
Notifications have now been added for collaborations, quizzes added to groups, new and updated charts, and also newly featured quizzes in any featured language. Go to the relevant New and Reset page for each language to sign up for notifications.
You also have more options for disabling notifications on the Manage Notifications page.
Tag pages will now show your best score on a quiz - if you have taken it.
Badges are now calculated based on your current results. This means if a quiz in a badge gets reset, you will need to re-earn the badge.
The User Stats for all languages now allows you to filter the table by language: Total User Stats.
Also, you can now see New and Reset quizzes for all on the new page: All New and Reset Quizzes.
If you have ever received a spotlight on one of your quizzes, it will now appear here: Your Spotlights, accessible from the Recent Spotlights page for those that have had one.
You will also now receive a notification when you are awarded a spotlight, or one of your quizzes receives a spotlight. These can be toggled off on the Manage Notifications page.
Some minor blog changes, starting with the abilty to delete components simply by dragging them to the "Delete Area" on the right hand side.
You can also now set quick links to be numbered instead of just bullet points, with additional options per Heading to:
- Set the Heading to now appear in Quick Links
- Set the Heading to increment first number, i.e. to be a Heading
- Set the Heading to increment the second number, i.e. to be a Subheading
The controls of quizzes have been slightly reorganised to place Pause, Untimed and Help near the timer itself, while "Give Up?" has been made more obvious and moved more out of the way.
Similar to the addition of French Facts earlier this year, the French community has joined together to create their version of interesting quotes too! Take a look: Citations.
You can now modify which type of notifications you wish to receive via the Manage Notifications page. You can still manage your subscription from here as well.
If you wish to mute notifications from a specific friend, you can do this via the Friends page, clicking on the button and toggling the notification checkbox.
How famous must I be on JetPunk to post a picture of myself
I think that people would know not to post pictures of themselves online, and definitely not on a quiz website. Surely one would be able to know very few people (much less a JetPunker) would be that stupid.
Correct me if I’m wrong
Can you add a time increment for quizzed? Whenever a correct answer is typed, it would add or subtract time to the user.
Those with a higher level have some time invested into JetPunk and so are less likely to sabotage it.
Also I noticed that the chart on this page has some problems displaying today's score, so that probably needs to be fixed (it shouldn't be hard though)
I only did 31 as 30 looked too empty on today's puzzle, and I wanted 12x12 as all words were 6 letters :)
I'll fix the stat page issue later today.
And I also second the idea of a poll function to blogs. It would be a nice addition imo.
And tbh, I don't think Polls will happen. I disagree that it would be useful for JetPunk given how few people even read blogs. Especially since there would need to be additional measures and such put in place to prevent multiple votes, and to store the votes and such. It's just a lot of unnecessary work.
with the whole ' prevent multiple votes thing ' couldn't you do it the same way as nominations? since they are a non repeatable thing e.g. you can't nom a quiz multiple times so you could implement the same thing on polls right?
no pressure if you don't though, you do a lot of work on JP anyway
:D
E.g. If you have the following data:
2010 1 2
2015 - 2
2020 1 2
Then, with interpolate gaps enabled, you will get a line at y=1, and a line at y=2. With it disabled you get a line at y=2, but you get a single dot at points (2010, 1) and (2020, 1)
The comments themselves still exist though.
(Also, is there a way to make missed answers on Click quizzes show up?)
We can't reveal the correct answer since then everybody would always get the last question correct as there would only be a single clickable answer left.
I agree with some comments that this was the wrong quiz type for the quiz chosen to be fair.

1.1. Featured quizzes

And how to make the CSS suitable for dark mode? I mean specifically this one:
< style >
.did-you-know {
padding: 20px;
margin: 10px 0;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #eee;
display: inline-block;
}
.did-you-know .head {
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 120%;
}
.did-you-know .body {
margin: 10px 0 0;
line-height: 1.3em;
}
< /style >
< div >
< div >Your text here< /div >< /div >
EDIT: Not working tho. The background color turns transparent both at light and dark modes.
Edit: Still not working.
You need one css for light-mode, this would be with the class selector ".did-you-know". Then a second, separate, selector with ".dark-mode .did-you-know" for how you want it to look in dark-mode. It will. not automatically adjust, you have to define it.
Say you have a div with a class called "color-me". You want this div to have a green background normally, but in dark mode you want it to have a red background. Then, the style for that would be:
< style >
.color-me { background-color: green; }
.dark-mode .color-me { background-color: red; }
< /style >
< div class="color-me" > this is my div < /div >
It affects anything with the class:
.country, .state, .region, .county, .light-water, .surrounding, .water, .ocean
Also, on non featured quizzes the give up button is on the other side of the page, instead of right next to the time left.
I will look into notifications thing.
If you mean Badges, it was because the code for it was becoming slow and problematic due to storing badge achievements not matching current quizzes. For example you could have achieved a badge with 9/10 answers, but if the requirement is now 11 / 13 then you have a problem.
If you mean the quiz controls, this was inspired by the fact that the controls were disjointed, and that people complained about misclicking the give up link because they didn't know it was a button.
And I can’t remember if I asked, but could we have back the language selector on search bar?
And no, the language selector is not coming back. However under "Menu > Languages" there is a "Search" option which allows you to search all languages at once.
Is there a secret to completing it?
So the first 20 or so have been updated sometime this year, and the others you completed "untimed", which is no longer eligibile for Badge completion (as Untimed doesn't count for many things like points on quizzes).
Also noticed the change on comments box and it’s kinda awkward, maybe because I’m used to the former one lol*JetPunkers across the globe celebrate*
e.g. instead of typing "France" as the hint and say "Spain" as the answer you could add images of perhaps the country shapes?
Edit: Now I can’t comment or edit anymore on Desktop. I’m doing it for Mobile
