They seem to be working fine, Grondy. They should now be active.
I have posted them but would like another council member to test them to see if I have got them entered properly, and if so, to activate them.
If you mean the June Quiz posted on the Home Page by Taz on Friday, June 14, 2002, then yes something is wrong with it, but Taz has yet to make the necessary repairs. 
I thought there once was a link to a quiz. Is that gone now or is it just me?

hey...you left out half the rhyme in #12...the last half of it's the answer:
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
As much wood as a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
(Granted it's not a good answer, but it's there anyhow)

)Errr. Just checked. Still can't access them. Just me? 
I was able to access the quizzes by using the quick link at the top of the page. I asked Samwisegamgee to do the same and it worked. 
The new quizzes are loverly! Pretty tough though. Who made these?? *curious*
Hi Tom,
Various council members have made up the quizzes. I promise an easier one is on the way.

The easier quiz will take a while longer, because we broke the machine that lets us edit them. Sorry. 
No problem Grondy, we will be patient...
No, tommy it is not just you. I clicked Quizzes under general from here and it just took me back to the top of the page. So I went to the home page and did it again from there and the same thing happened.
Ok I managed to fix the quiz section of this site this morning so we start adding some ASAP. Keep an eye on it
I'll try to get them all back up by the weekend. cool, I can't wait.
Let's check if they're back...
Checking...
Checked. It said: "Sorry, you're not allowed to access this module"
Checked the quizzes link under general: just doesnt work.
Is it just me, or is it normal?

Likewise folks.
Last night I went straight in through the top link and didn't try the side one. I'll add that to the list for Taz to fix
Is the top link definetly working for non-Council members then? Someone who's tried it and got in please say, "yes"

Yep, Val. That is why I asked Samwisegamgee to try it and it worked.
Sorry guys, I tried both links again and it would not work for me.
The top link told me that I was unable to access this mondule; and the side link just took me to the top of the page again. Is it just me?

*looking into it*
Ok both issues fixed.
Yes, it is. Thank you for fixing it, Taz. I just took all the quizzes.
*nods* Working all right for me too now, thanks Taz! 
Hmmm. No who's this "anonymous" that keeps turning up in the Halls of Fame then eh?

hi Ringmaster,
The quizzes haven't been transferred and activated on the new site yet, just stay tuned. Meanwhile, come into the chatroom. We may be having a quiz or two in there.

Welcome to Planet-Tolkien.com Ringmaster22. I am confused, how do u take quizzes?
The quizes have yet to be activated, but there is the almost daily trivia question to be found in Trivia: Barad-dur as well as many larger quizes which can be found under History of Middle Earth Brainteaser including the current mail it quiz by Tommie .
ooohhh i can't wait!
