brainstorming: attributes/"who am i?" quiz
one of the earliest features we planned for chimera (back in 2024!) is the "who am i?" quiz.
this is inspired by those uquiz/quotev/etc answer percentages you can get after you take a quiz. the planned usage goes like this: - create a series of questions with brief multiple choice answers - each answer corresponds to one or more members in your system - when opening the "fronting page" of whatever system, you can tap the "who am i?" button to start the quiz - after selecting answers for all the questions, receive a list of who might be fronting, sorted by percentage of relevant answers
we've tooled around with this one on/off for ages. we thought about the answers being done uquiz style, where you "attach" members to each answer as you make it... but lately, we've been thinking about ways to track information beyond fields and groups, and it might slot in well here.
the idea is you can create "attributes" and assign those attributes to members like you're assigning groups. then, you can "automate" creating the quiz to some degree by having each question be, like, "which attribute applies?" and then you get the results that way. so then you can do updates quicker, and not have to manually add/remove individual members for x answer to y question each time something changes...
this might become a setting within chi groups ("set as attribute" or something), it might be its own feature... it's still a puzzle. we're enjoying brainstorming it though. i thought maybe y'all would have fun seeing the process 🩷
