An apparent re-hashing of the Regional Quiz.

Anyone welcome, no need to sign up, other than in the minutes before each match. We DO need a team captain though for each team, to pick the question subject for their 'home games'. Quizzes are ten questions long, each question will allow 30 secs for an answer before a skinner. Only one answer per player. Unlimited players per team but MUST be signed in before kick off.

Teams are:

Southern Dandies
**ney Winkers
Heart of England
Northern Monkeys
Gaelic Charm
Jonny Foreigners

These are self-defining, but you can't change teams mid-season.

There will be three matches each sunday, the first at 9pm. League tables will be kept, as will top goalscorers, but it will NOT be very serious.

Captains please! You don't need to be there for every game.

By the way, I'm thinking of abandoing the idea of specialised subjects for 'home' teams - we only ever had 3 teams nominate, and I completely forgot last week and nobody noticed!

Everyone OK with that?

Legendary quiz team Johnny Foreigners were reported to be in turmoil last night. The team, firmly anchored to the bottom of the prestigious Sunday Night Quiz league after a series of catastrophic results were said to be facing liquidation which would mean automatic expulsion from the money-spinning weekly quizzes. Speaking on Radio Fife Life veteran captain of the foreigners , Dobbo, denied that the team were in trouble.

Joe it's 9-11, always has been always will be. Not out of fussiness, but with a team event people need to know where they are. I tried amedning the times one week and the whole world fell apart!

By all means run parrallel comps. The good thing about a team event is it doesn't matter so much if an odd player is missing, unless it's Studyform of course!
