Community Quiz (Wednesday 4 January, 7pm-8pm)

edited December 2022 in Community Announcements
'ey up legends,

Get excited, because it's time for another Community Quiz, as hinted at in our recent chat break thread.
When: Wednesday 4th Jan, 7-8pm
Where: Group Chat
For those who don't know what a Community Quiz is or how it works...
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:
The Mix Trivia
General Knowledge
Open Round - does anyone have any suggestions for a theme?
As always, we like to get you all to write and host each round of the quiz! Hosting just means being the person to ask your questions and declare the winner of each point during your round. I'll also be on hand on the evening to help you out. 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. You'll need to have written and sent your questions to us by Saturday 31st December. We'll give the opportunity to someone who hasn't previously hosted a round, so please don't take it personally if you're not chosen this time. There will be other quizzes! :3

Oh, and our coverted badges will be awarded to all hosts, writers, and winners! (oooooh....)

If you've got any questions then just holler!
Harry and the team
Hello amazing human (yes, that's YOU). I wish that you could see the amazing person who I see within you  ✨

    Are we allowed to do it that 2 people do a round together? If so, does anyone want to share a round?

    @Dancer Collaborative working sounds great. Hopefully, the staff team can confirm or deny this for you soon. Is there a particular round you would like to share with someone else? :)

    @Morgan007 It sounds great that you want to host a round. Thank you for offering and, as you were one of the first people to respond, I am sure you can host a round! Is there a round you would like to host in particular? :)

    I'll wait and see what Morgan wants to do before deciding.

    Hello hello everyone! So, it looks like so far we've got...
    1. @Morgan007 hosting the 'free' round - perhaps with a 'guess the logo' theme.

    Is anyone else up for hosting a round? @Dancer, were you wating to share a round with someone? Or @Amy22 / @Chloe234, were you guys keen? I'm just tagging as you've been active on this thread, but anyone else who is keen is also super welcome to throw their hat into the ring - it isn't too late!

    @Morgan007, I'll drop you a DM now to chat through your round.

    Thanks everyone!
    Harry :)

    I don't mind doing it by myself but if it makes it easier for other people to have a chance to host, I don't mind sharing.

    @Amy22 and @Chloe234, would you both still be up for putting together a quiz round? If you would then that would be super helpful.

    I can drop you both a message now with all of the info, if you'd still be willing!

    That's okay Morgan, no pressure to attend. :) If you know you definitely can't, let us know and we'll see if we can find someone to host your round.
