Deep thoughts #1: Would this site would benefit from bug hunting code challenges?

We already have code challenges. How about a code challenge where we have to find and fix errors?

What are your thoughts?

That would be great, there is one already in a couple of the iOS development courses :) but more would be great.

There's a fair share of bug hunting to be done in the forums that I would think that the feature wouldn't be a necessity and might actually lower the number of people who are helping others with issues in the forum.

I see what your saying, but I disagree, I personally would only help people if I believe I know the answer already, not if i'm looking to learn. I help (not necessarily just on teamtreehouse forums) because it makes me feel good helping other people, not to improve my skills or knowledge.

Although, I do agree that it's not really a necessity, it would just be a nice to have.

I, for one, think it is a very interesting idea and one that Treehouse might want to consider. I'd definitely be interested!
