In order to earn the Mixed-Up May badge, you'll have to play 15 unpublished Editor-Picked quizzes in each category! To make it a little easier -- and to allow for some self-promotion -- this thread exists so than anyone who so desires can post some or all of their unpublished, EP'd quizzes for others to peruse. Think of it as self-promotion that's actually a public service (sort of)!

I'll get the ball rolling:

I would love to help some fellow Sporclers in their search to unpublished EP's (and of course I don't mind to promote my own quizzes :-D)

I've never had any issues finding EP quizzes to play - there is a whole page dedicated to them (www.sporcle.com/contributed/editorpicks). ;)

Still a little self-promotion is always fun. Counted mine out of curiosity and there are 49.

Sprout has 366. So in theory you could play one of his every day for all of 2016. *cough* potential badge idea *cough*

Is there any way to see older EP quizzes? For example, looking at the Editor Picks page for Geography right now, I can go back to March 26th, but I would like to be able to go back further to see any that I might have missed. Just wondering if that's possible?

Hmm... well, for my category, I'll attach all the ones I've ever EP-ed. Sorry it can't be on the site, so you can see a faded link for the quizzes you've already visited.

I'd also like to see older EP quizzes for all the categories somewhere on the site, though!

I'm having trouble finding quizzes to play in a couple categories -

Sports - This is dominated by NBA and NHL quizzes, with a few soccer quizzes, none of which I have any interest in.  It would be good to see more variety in quizzes getting EPs.  No March Madness quizzes were picked during March Madness even.

Gaming - I know nothing about Pokemon or video games, but those subjects seem to be all that gets picked for EPs in this category.  

If you have any EPs in these two categories that are broader than what's been selected lately, I'd appreciate seeing them.

There are some March Madness Editors Picks on this page:  http://www.sporcle.com/games/tags/marchmadness

Sorry you will have to sort through them.

My few Editor's Picks in those categories were the type you are looking for, but have since been published, so that is the best help that I can give you.

My advice is that if you struggle with any category, go to the leaderboards for quizmasters, click on a few people's profiles, go to contributed games, and sort by category. You will absolutely find unpublished EPs that meet your interests (though you may need to go through several profiles).

Because of me not paying a lot of attention to what's all going on over here until recently, I may be a bit late really, but here's my 4 EPs any ways:



Some changes have been made to the last 3 since they got picked. I'm wondering how those are recieved.
