Quizz Factory Legitimacy

Regarding the "Quizz Factory"... I know, a little off-topic for Q&A, but I'd like to understand the logic or sanity behind rejections. I'll admit one or two of my submissions were a tad generic, but most were a lost more original than obfuscated math problems. In fact one was cleverly designed to illicit wrong answers. So, my question, a two-part one: *. Why are my _mostly-high-quality_ questions rejected while quizzes are usually low-spec, dull, obfuscated math sh**e? *. Who decides the usability of submissions? I'm wondering if they're not a script. All this would make much more sense were the quizzes reasonable. I also fail to understand why it took so long to get to mine, then, to almost instantly rate the lot. PS: A decent rationale as to _why_ they were rejected may help. PPS: I promised myself I wouldn't step in the line of fire this account... Oh well, promises are made to be broken, like virg****y. PPPS: I'm not tryna seem confrontational! I'm humble as pie!

It depends a lot on community ratings, but in the end it's completely up to the Devs. I've had many of my best quizzes get rejected too, and as frustrating as it is, well, just have to suck it up and move on really. Cheers.

Some declines really feel random though. 'Too many similar problems exist.' Yeah, only not in the way over 1000 riddles that crossed my way so far... It should be made more transparent what is happening there.

Quizzes are not explained well. In school we took a test to see of we had mastery of a subject. The quizzes on SL do not test for mastery, they test for pattern recognition and recall. So, if you have awesome thought provoking quizzes please present them, maybe in a web form, or just ask away (mirrors facing mirrors) was a wonderful teaching example Just a thought.
