Did you participate as much as you had planned to in the "Know It All Contest"?
More than I had planned, actually! It spurred me to find questions that could be turned into hubs, and to ask open-ended questions (that some may want to write hubs about).
I had planned to combine the contest with a 30-in-30 personal challenge, but as so often happens, life got in the way--illness, the sudden death of a friend's son, and my children's schedules have pulled me off track this past week. I'm hoping to get back to publishing this week, though!
I had plan to participate more. But end up that I did not participate as much as I would have liked because I didn't have as much time as I had thought.
It's very time-consuming writing Hubs.
Yes, every single hub that I have written this month was in the form of an answer to this questions. My "mosquito bite remedies" hub was randomly picked! I actually planned on asking questions every day but had a hard time coming up with some quality questions. I definitely need to ask more questions!
I did get in a couple but this month proved to hold its challenges for me in other life circumstances. Enjoyed the questions and hubs in response. It was quite interesting.
Definitely, I have only answered questions this month, and right now I am up to 28 hubs for this month because of the 30/30 challenge. #28 will be published in about 12 hours, and I have two more to write to hit my target.
The short answer is 'No!' Like some others here, I intended to, but life got in the way with a course to finish, a short stint in hospital, and a variety of other things. I think it's a great idea and will be watching for when it comes up again and hoping that I'll be able to contribute better next time.

I completed 26 Answer-Hubs out of a 30-Day Challenge and found income was steady despite a moderate dip in traffic for 4 days. Made more friends and now traffic is increasing. Participation is a good thing for us at HubPages.

When the March Q&A Contest was announced and there was mention of daily drawings for hubs, I had the idea that it was the perfect time to try out the HubChallenge with the added bonus of using Questions to inspire my writing. Last night when I should have been in bed it dawned on me that March...

are we going to see any feedback? I recall something about HubPages reporting stats provided we tagged our hubs, which I duly did.And for those of us who sweated to achieve the magic 30 or even 100 in 30 days, apart from a bit of forum dialogue we've seen nothing... HubPages itself...
