Guest Jayfire Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 All joking aside (ooh listen at me) I'm not sure what happened but I apologise again for not being able to chair the easiest quiz on earth 😔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Just glad you're ok Jay. How are you fixed for next Friday? I don't mind taking it if the timing doesn't work for you. I'm sure it's not always easy with shift work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JF has always been in a parallel universe, at a tangent with this one. It's the safest place to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I'm probably talking through my hat as usual but could you have a sort of 'sound check' before the quiz starts? Say whoever is running the quiz could log on and have a volunteer to check everything is working OK before it goes live? Mrs Nog has been having Zoom meetings for work and I know she has had issues connecting etc - when you're relying on 'tinternet it's all very prone to gremlins. I don't know if the chat room is open 24/7 but say if Fireman Sam would be up having another go next week he could maybe enrol say Jean and Lindz for a dummy run just to check everything is working???? Another thought and I'm not technical as you know, but does the chat room run slower the more folk are logged on? The anticipation of Fireman Sam in action could have caused a Glastonbury Ticket style meltdown!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Jay, its quite common that at 8.30 on the dot, there is nobody there, 8.30 is when everyone starts coming in, and we usually allow about 10 minutes for stragglers before starting the quiz. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Afternoon All, Well we had a lovely time in the chat room yesterday evening. I ran a quiz I had got ready in case Jay couldn't make it. Shift work can play havoc with your plans sometimes so maybe he was working. It was quite close in the runners up places with ... Nik and Bern being joint runners up with 9 points and ... WINNER for the week was TIGERHAWK with 13 points. Well done! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
