Hello folks!

So Fiend and I have been leaving you tasty little tidbits over the past few weeks to whet your appetites for our shiny collaboration.

And now I can tell you what it is!

On Sunday May 26th at 6pm, we are holding a QUIZ! With prizes and everything.

There will be three rounds, asked by your quizmasters, piccolo, Fiend, and moi (of course), and they could cover any aspect of film, book, or adaptation trivia.

Prizes will include TheSite.org t-shirts as well as a SUPER SECRET PRIZE OF AWESOME. I'm not allowed to tell you what it is but I can tell you now it's amazebeans.

So come quiz with us. It'll be worth it. I promise.

    Book are amazeballs
    Films are amazeballs
    Adaptations are a bit hit and miss frankly, but often amazeballs.

    Be at the quiz, answer the questions, be the rightest in each round, win a t-shirt
    (super-secret amazing overall prize to be revealed)

    I doubt I know (m)any of the books and films it will cover but I'll probably be there. It's been a while since I've been to a quiz.

    We love attendance, it's not whether you win, it's how you play the game :)

    I hope you'll be ok with me giving silly answers for the heck of it. :p Like "What did Bilbo find in the dragon's lair?" "A caviar and salami sandwich."

    It's not just for people who've been taking part, so the quiz is definitely not restricted to the clubs' chosen books and films :)

    :yes:

    In fact I think there are less than half a dozen questions that are previous books/films from clubs.

    People need to stop holding quizzes when I'm not around. I've been here a year and a half and there still hasn't been a quiz I could go to. Hmpf. Although, have a good time everyone!

    What's the book?

    The themes are to make it easier to nominate (rather than a free for all). We always need new theme ideas though so if you can think of one your book would go into make a suggestion in the sticky picc made :)

    Ooooh. Quiz.

    This excites me. If I'm not on a ferry then I will definitely be there. If I'm on a ferry then it might be a tad of a challenge for the wifi.
