Friday Night Quiz 2022

[Tigerhawk]

I have just realised that I am not available to do the quiz on Friday as I have a prior engagement.

If anybody wants to step in and run a quiz they are more than welcome.

Failing that I will run a quiz on the 14th.

Apologies for not noticing earlier!

Happy New Year to all!

[SwanR]

I'm happy to step in and run a quiz if it helps. :)

[Tigerhawk]

Thank you Jean.

See you all on the 14th

Evening All,

That was a great quiz this evening Jean. Really good fun, great questions and a very, very close result.

[SwanR]

Thanks Bikertov, it was great fun.

I enjoy hosting the quiz just as much as taking part ... coming up with the questions can be quite a challenge ... as I'm sure you will find out before too long. 

[SwanR]

So that was the first quiz of 2022 ... and it was very closely fought.

We had several people tying for places but ...

In 2nd place was Bikertov with 12 1/2 points.

Tied in 1st place were Kate and Sam on 13 points each.

Kate won the tie break question so claimed the first win of the year.

However as both Kate and Sam are otherwise engaged next Friday we are hoping that TigerHawk will step back in and run next week's quiz. I will send him a message. 

Have a lovely weekend everyone. :)

Lovely evening, thanks for making it happen Jean

[Tigerhawk]

Thanks again to Jean for stepping in and running the quiz.

I will be more than happy to run next week's quiz, and will post the topics later in the week.

See you all on Friday!

[SwanR]

I actually enjoy setting the questions just as much as taking part so it was my pleasure. 

Looking forward to next Friday already. 👍

Oooo I was reading this from the preview pane and thought the first round was music geography i.e. places in music. Now there’s an idea! 🤔

[Tigerhawk]

Tonight's quiz starts in about 20 minutes in the chat room....

And I made a mistake with my topics- Round 1 is Books, not Music!

 

[SwanR]

No music geography then ... 

[Tigerhawk]

This evening's quiz was won by SteveO, with SwanR second and NikO third.

Thanks to all who joined in.

[SwanR]

Great quiz Tigerhawk, lots of fun as usual.

Well done Steve ... looking forward to next week already. I know, I don't get out much! 

[Bikertov]

Thank you @Tigerhawk - really good and really challenging quiz, even though I was a strong last place 

Good to see you all tonight. Not sure I will make it next week as I am meant to be away on holiday, travel permitting. 

[SwanR]

Hope your travel plans come together and we get you back for the quiz soon. 👍

Funny clocks in your house .... :-)

[Bikertov]

I will try to pop in just before 8:30 to say 'Hola' from Tenerife, but won't be able to stay for the quiz 

[SwanR]

Tenerife! Hope you’re having a good time. I won’t ask whether it’s warmer than the 4 degrees feeling like -1 that we had today!

[Bikertov]

It's lovely and warm here - around 20* but quite windy a the moment.
