Anyone ever talk introducing about a problem of the week. Where a user actually gets several attempts at an answer. I'm talking about a legitimate quiz type setup, complete with multiple choice automated system...not hidden responses.
They did this at Brilliant and it was great engagement with the community. You take a shot at an answer, and if you get it right you have the option to post your own solution and more importantly see other's approach. They got rid of it there eventually to avoid some social media classification (I believe - they didn't have time to police the solutions because they were working on their coursework), but removing the community feature caused significant stir. There was a group generated to discuss where we could (internet forums) go to continue it, but I don't think it ever got settled officially (that I'm aware of).
It was good fun, and best of all it kept one engaged, and got people interested/motivated. During the slow season here it could be a good way to boost morale, generate interest (generate revenue)?
If it was done successfully PF could advertise it on the web. There had to be thousands of user submitted problems in their archive. There was clearly market for this just a short while ago.
