Even More Mines

Hello sporclers, and welcome to another edition of the Sporcler's Review. We're here at the second week since the restart of this site, and it has gone well so far. If anybody has suggestions about new features for the site, or anything else, please feel free to make a comment about it. And, as always, remember to vote on which quiz you think is the best; every vote makes a difference.

A hint at something to come, however, next week will also include a vote for the best quiz of June, including the top two quizzes from each week. For each subsequent month, it will be the top quiz of every week, but because June was only half of a month, two quizzes for every week. And at the end of the year, a quiz will be voted quiz of 2011, a lofty title to be sure.

Here are last week's results. In the pole position is Your Sunday Sporcle Crossword 2011-06-19, with precisely 50% of the votes. My congratulations go out to rockgolf for such an innovative quiz. Second place is dolebanana with Celebrities: Real or Wax? with 33%. Lastly, the third place honor goes to jonesjeffum and his quiz, Cities with the Most Stadiums, receiving the remaining 17%. Now to this week, which included many minefield format quizzes like last week.

Back on Track

Well, here we go again. It's Enigma9994 here, bringing you a long overdue Sporcler's Review post. So let's call this the official relaunch of this site. There have been quite a few changes, though. First off, I am, as of now, the only author. The other authors, myself included, had lots of things to do and sort of lost track of this blog. But I'm back now, and that brings me to the second change; there will only be one post a week, every Sunday, pure Sporcler's Review. Now be aware that this may change, and it may change fast, but that's how it is now. I also edited some of the formatting of the site, nothing huge. And, in my own sporcling sphere, I am now the curator for States and Cities at Sporcle! I love being a curator; you get to come up with witty sayings.

That brings me to this post. First off, the results are in for the question of the month of March. If you could be the editor for any category, which would it be? The winner in this poll came by the narrowest of margins. Geography ranked supreme with 8 votes, while Sports took second with 7 votes. Now on to this week in Sporcle. A trend of minefield games has arisen in the last week or so, and one of these such quizzes is featured today (I almost picked more), along with some other very interesting and innovative quizzes that seemed to be a pattern this week.
