I rean my Quest for another 3 hours today. That is my third time and that is now long it takes to give out 20-25 prizes.

One of the things about it is you don't get notified of who finished except the first 4 and when the other do. I came up with an idea to solve that.

The last task on my quest is they have to come back to the room they started in (I am sitting in there answering questions over and over and OVER again :teeth: ) and they say Thanks Always Princess. That lets me see who is actually finishing.

I dc while testing the quest today and I didn't have to start all over again. It let me pick up where I left off.

Someone also gave me a great suggestion. If the quest has something kind of difficult or that most people don't have the ability to do. Say that in the quest description. Like when I did that they had to have Snowman magic. I could just say that and the people that don't have it could not spend the time. I changed my quest so I didn't have to do that. If you have a game requirement with a difficult score why not say that before people start. I thought that was an awesome idea and I can't remember who suggested it to me in VMK.
 
Woohoo! Way to go, Lisa!
I am always happy to know what score I'll need to get to advance in the quest. I think it's a waste of my time to try a quest that has a mini-game in it and not know if I'll be able to reach that goal. I usually try it only once. If I don't advance, I'll quit the quest.
Thanks for sharing that advice!
 
These are great points. I think your quest will be great if you have implemented them. I would love to try it. Another tip for quest builders: Make sure that your hints are something that make sense to others besides you.

Sounds obvious, but I know about 20 people that never finished a quest yesterday because none of us could figure out least clue and owner was nowhere.

Can't wait to try your quest.
