Thirteen questions about food, weather, sports, and how you spend a free evening. Nothing is required, there are no wrong answers, and you can stop after one step — every question you skip just means one less thing the site can lead with.
What happens to the answers
Your picks are written to your own browser first, so the quiz remembers where you were if you close the tab. Pressing See what this changes also files them under an anonymous profile id — a random number in a cookie, tied to nothing else. No name, no email, no address; the only free-text field is the town you start from, and it is optional.
When accounts arrive, signing in claims that profile instead of asking the same thirteen questions over again. Start over deletes both copies.
What it changes today
Answers vote for pages. A cuisine pick votes for the searches and notes that cover it, a hobby pick votes for the section that holds it, and any pick inside a question also votes for that question's hub — so ticking three cuisines counts once for Cuisines on top of the three individual votes. The results list is those votes sorted by weight.
That means the quiz gets better as the site does. An option with nowhere to point yet — Vietnamese, Korean, disc golf, bowling, motorsport — is still recorded, and the gap between what readers pick and what the site covers is the most honest content backlog we have.
Putting the quiz on another page
Drop the marker on its own line. It renders on the site only — Obsidian reads it as an ordinary HTML comment, the same way the calendar marker works.
<!-- quiz -->
Only a fenced block keeps the marker literal. An inline code span does not, so documenting it anywhere else on a page will expand a second copy of the quiz.
The question set lives in QUIZ_STEPS, in the site's own code. Each option may carry a to: (a slug that must already exist on the site) or a find: (a search term with real hits behind it); an option with neither is recorded but recommends nothing.
