QuizList

Firstly, this is the last post until approx 21 June, as I’m going away.

Secondly, we have two newly notified quizzes in East and North London:

Nightingale, 51 Nightingale Lane, E11 2E, 020 8530 4540 (Monday quiz).

Clifton, 96 Clifton Hill, NW8 0JT, 020 7372 3427 (Wednesday quiz).

Lastly, and this is nothing to do with either of the quizzes mentioned above or others visible in recent posts, we have:

QuizList Quizmaster’s Guide on How to Fix a Quiz So Your Mates Win.

Rule 1: Let one of them come up while you are marking the sheets and engage you in a long discussion, during which it is possible that a couple of answers are changed.

Rule 2: If they have left a blank space for one of the answers, write the correct answer in, using the same pen you use to mark the quiz.

Rule 3: If you’ve asked a question about a music group, and their answer is wrong but is a rough synonym for the group’s name (e.g you wanted the answer ‘The Ruts’ and they’ve put ‘The Furrows’), mark it right.

Rule 4: Cross out their total score and write in a higher total.

Rule 5: If you’ve done all that and it’s still only enough to put them in a tiebreak, improvise.

Rule 6: Finally, show your contempt for all other teams by leaving the answer sheets lying around the pub.

And for those of you who wanted me to say more: sorry, but that’s it… maybe one day we’ll return to the topic of the quiz night where all that happened.
