    BEEN FEELING BORED LATELY? STRUGGLING WITH SELF-ISOLATION AND SOCIAL DISTANCING? HOW ABOUT A QUIZ???


    WELCOME TO CLARA & MOLLY'S WONDERFUL QUIZ


    giphy.gif


    FOLLOW ALONG AT HOME FOLKS TO HELP STAVE OFF BOREDOM!

    FORMAT and INSTRUCTIONS:
    The game will consist of 12 rounds, 6 rounds of general knowledge and 6 themed rounds.
    Round of questions will be posted by Molly/Clara in this thread each day at around 12:00. We will post 2 rounds together each day, so hopefully the game will run no longer than 6 days.
    Each team should coordinate together to answer the questions, and PM the answers to either Molly or Clara by 21:00 on the same day as the rounds are posted. Answers will be posted at 10.30am each day.
    Each general knowledge round will consist of 10 questions.
    Each question will be worth 1 point.

    RULES:
    You are not permitted to research the answers, that includes Googling, asking friends (apart from your teammates), or checking books. We have to trust you on this, be a good sport.
    If you have a concern that our answer is wrong for any question, please highlight it via PM to Molly/Clara.
    If the game ends with more than 1 team on the same number of points, those teams will enter into a tie breaker. (Details to be provided if and when needed)
    I will only accept your first answers, so double check them before you PM.
    In the event you forget to answer question(s) in your first PM, I will allow you to answer these in a separate PM.
    First rounds will be posted tomorrow at 12 midday. All answers should be submitted by 9pm tomorrow. LATE ENTRIES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
