kpnut Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Many thanks Jean, really enjoyed it as usual and thanks to Grendel for winning! Can I ask a question please? If I do end up winning sometime in the future, will someone be able to help me during the week to practice using the chat room to pose and answer questions, so I have some hope of doing it right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Happy to help. Other than knowing how to set your font colour to red and change it back afterwards, it’s no different than taking part. You just have to use the time stamp at the side to check if you have more than one person answering at the same second. I have my questions on a document already typed in upper case so I can copy and paste them in using your usual keyboard shortcuts or right mouse clicks. But you could just type them. I actually have a notebook to hand to write who gets the points each question. Then I count them up at halftime and at the end. That’s just how I do it. We can always get on the phone for a dry run when your day comes! I won the quiz the first week I took part so I didn’t have time to be nervous! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpnut Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Thanks very much Jean. So using my pc rather than tablet will be a very good idea so I can use your copy and paste idea. If/when the week arrives, everyone will have to be very patient!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Yes I definitely need to be on my computer to run it. No way I could do it on a small screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lulu Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 When you win it Kpnut, it will be so easy to run. You would be quizmaster. What you say goes. Don’t bother keeping count. Just announce that Bikertov has won. No one will question your adding up 😁 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikertov Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I won't be able to attend this week, but should a new user called @I'mNotBikertov be taking part, don't be alarmed Not knowing who they are, I wouldn't be surprised if they are not very good at quizzes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
