    Hello all,

    Cornelius Crow and I will be hosting another quiz in the next couple of weeks. Our plan at the moment is to do it across a weekend, most likely the 25th - 27th.

    We will confirm more details regarding format / scoring etc closer to the time.

    Please register your interest in this thread. Teams will be assigned by CC or myself.

    It will be a general knowledge quiz, so lots of different types of question (something for everyone).

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Just checking in with my team-mates TheValeyard and feargale. I've Discord but technology isn't really my forte so would appreciate if someone could open a group. Also open to Whatsapp. Team names not really my forte either. Nor is quizzing. Good luck!

    We used discord the last time, I joined for the game, worked very well, one of the others made threads for each round.
