Community Quiz (Thursday 7th, 7-8pm)

edited April 20 in Group Chat Announcements
As mentioned in the chat break thread, there will be a Community Quiz this coming week!

When: Thursday 7th Jan, 7-8pm
Where: Group Chat

For those who don't know the format...

Community Quizzes consist of 3 rounds of 10 questions, with one point available for each. A total of 30 points are up for grabs, with each point going to whoever gives the correct answer first. Titles will be awarded to the winner of each round and the highest total score across all rounds.

The rounds will be as follows:
  1. Entertainment
  2. The Mix Trivia
  3. General Knowledge

As always, we like to get you guys to write and host the quiz! Hosting just means being the person to ask your questions and declare the winner of each point during your round. If you're not keen on hosting but you'd still like to write a round, that may also be an option if someone else can host for you.

If you'd like to write and/or host a round, let us know below. We'll likely give the opportunity to someone who hasn't had it before or recently, so please don't take it personally if you're not chosen this time. :3

Badges will be awarded to all hosts, writers, and winners!

Note: if you want to write and/or host, you'll need to send us your questions by 6pm on Thursday.
Taking a break 🌈

    Can I do general knowledge please?

    Oh, and if anyone has any better ideas for the first round (currently 'entertainment'), do shout - that's a flexible slot where we can potentially add something more interesting. :)

    Can I do The Mix Trivia please?
    I'm a fruit loop. 🍊➰

    There's a part of me I can't get back.  A little girl grew up too fast. All it took was once. I'll never be the same.

    Thanks guys! @GreenTea @Dancer @Anch0r33 happy for you to write the rounds. :3

    @Anch0r33 if you fancy doing something a bit different like a celeb or sport round, go for it! Thinking celeb might be a bit more accessible to everyone if that works?

    Send us your questions as soon as you can and we'll give them a look. :)

    Apologies Felix! They usually get snapped up quickly. We leave it a few days after the announcement to confirm people, so we can give the opportunity to people who might not have had it before. So if you fancy it for the next quiz, make sure to get in quick-ish. :)
