There will be a community quiz during chat break!

For those who don't know the format: there are 3 rounds of 10 questions, with one point available for each. A total of 30 points are up for grabs, with each point awarded for the fastest correct answer.

Titles are awarded to the winner of each round as well as the person with the overall highest score.

The quiz takes place in group chat, with @Past User modding and keeping score. :)

Here are the rounds:
  1. Entertainment (this one can be changed if anyone has a good theme in mind!)
  2. The Mix Trivia
  3. General Knowledge

In the usual way, we want you guys to write and host your own rounds. Writing means you come up with the questions, and hosting means being the person to ask your questions on the night. Hosts also declare the winner of each point in their round (with the mod having the final say ;) ).

If you'd like to write and/or host a round, reply below! If lots of people are interested, we'll prioritise those who haven't hosted recently, so don't take it personally if you're not chosen. :3

You're also welcome to co-host with someone else or as a group - feel free to be creative!

If you're chosen to host, you'll need to send us your questions for vetting by Tuesday 4th :)

    You though that Russia was a continent? Lol. I really should have been at the quiz. I had too much homework to do. Sorry.

    Yep @Dancer the question was what is the largest continent and my brain immediately jumped to Russia :joy: but it wouldn’t be a quiz if I didn’t give at least one stupid answer.

    Chat never is chat unless you say something crazy whether it is support chat, general chat, under 16's chat or quizzes!
