Exactly 10 years ago on November 23, 2011, the first ever user-created quiz on JetPunk was made.

This quiz was titled Video Games and Characters by user AndrewIsGreen.

JetPunk is an amazing website. Over the years, JetPunk has transformed itself from a small travel website to a geography site with thousands of loyal and amazing users. We built up the site into a plethora of brilliant quizzes that we couldn't be more proud of. Whether it was relessness, scambigol, or Stewart, we sacrificed our time to making and taking quizzes, simply because it's fun. This goes out to all users. Thank you quiz makers for your service, commenters for our entertainment, and general users for helping JetPunk grow to what it is today. Even if other geography websites are more popular than us, we will always be the best.

Congratulations, JetPunk. It's been a wild ride. Here's to the next 10 years.

Sorry for such a short blog today. If you're wondering how I figured out this was the first quiz on JetPunk, I pieced together information I found from the Wayback Machine. This may not have been the exact day the first quiz was created, but the quiz creation feature was introduced in late 2011 so the first quiz was probably submitted around this time.

Wow! It's crazy to think how far we've come, with the number of featured user-created quizzes in the thousands, and unfeatured even higher. That's what I love about JetPunk: it really puts its users first as opposed to popularity or profit, unlike other trivia websites I know (cough cough Orcspel). Thanks to Quizmaster for making this possible and to the community for being awesome :)

A very happy anniversary for Jetpunk! The user created quizzes and the community around them really do make this site a special place. I'm honestly a little surprised that the oldest user-created quizzes go back so far, I have a hard time stumbling upon anything older than 2012.

On a side note I've checked out Jetpunk on the WayBack machine and it's simply astonishing how much the site has grown in 10 years :D

Thanks! From my personal findings, I've found 2 user quizzes submitted in 2011 - the one mentioned in this blog and the Regions of Italy quiz by user scorp1970. Another old quiz I found was Palindromes by user Cyn, submitted in very early 2012.

It is indeed the first user-created (meaning the quizmaker's not connected to QM in any way) quiz that still prevails in JetPunk. But there's one that's even older: Michigan Quarterbacks since 1990, which doesn't even exist in JetPunk anymore. It was created in November 18th 2011, pre-dating Andrew's quiz by five days.

This is what can be found with the Wayback Machine. If there isn't an even more obscure quiz hiding somewhere, that is indeed the first ever user-created quiz. Too bad going to the quiz or the creator's profile today just gives a 404. :(

...and now the second oldest user-created quiz is gone as well.
