    Welcome to Boardless, taking signups now.

    I ran one over on FOG, however the site is down so can't link to it.

    I will likely go with a knockout format again.

    Post here if you are interested, will be a couple of weeks before it starts.

    Pointless is such a cruel quizshow - I don't think I've ever seen anyone win it.

    Not sure how it'll work here either but sure I'll throw my hat in the ring anyway.

    What??? It's a great show, and people win all the time!! It's just such a shame that they seem to have stopped making it, all that's ever on is repeats these days.

    Also not entirely sure how it will work here - but I couldn't have possibly guessed how WWTBAM might work and that was a great game, so I expect to be amazed and impressed!!

    Ok in fairness I'm only ever watching it when I'm in a hotel which is rare enough or if I'm in my mother's house. So I haven't seen it a lot. But I've never seen anyone win. The categories for the final are always really weird and obscure. I don't think I've even seen anyone come close.

    Ah I love Pointless, it's my favourite quiz show. We don't have a TV in the house I'm currently in so I make sure to tune in with my Mam whenever I'm down at my parents' home.

    Final category can go either way; ridiculously obscure or surprisingly simple. Some questions have so many possible answers that even seemingly obvious answers are pointless, because the 100 people don't have time to get them all.

    And also don't underestimate how stupid the 100 people sometimes can be! 😁

    People definitely win. And it'd be common enough that the team would get into single digits - often low single digits - in the final round.

    Quite how it'll work here I don't know. But I'm sure Kolido has thought of something!

    Yep, I've been out on the streets for the last week in the rain asking people for answers, the lengths I go to entertain you lot!

    Not quite, if you have played the last one I ran it will be very similar.
