A difficult Christmas quiz, please. Or a tricky anatomy and physiology quiz
ReplyDeleteDuly noted.
DeleteI'll take whatever you offer, but I would like two or three a month. Please and thank you.
ReplyDeleteTwo or three a month? I guess it's hard to find things to do in rural Arkansas when there are no hoe downs in the diary.
DeleteYou don't have an option for a medium quiz. I think a general knowledge would be good, though I'm bound to fail even that. This year has made my brain tired.
ReplyDeleteThere there dear! Have a mug of cocoa and wrap up warm.
DeleteI've sent mine by express post, so it should reach you but the closing date.
ReplyDeleteI will wait with eager anticipation.
DeleteAnything but geography, please! ANYTHING! (I guess that pretty much guarantees geography for the next Quiztime, doesn't it?)
ReplyDeleteQuestion 1 Which large country lies north of The United States?
DeleteQuestion 2 In which Canadian province will you find the city of Edmonton?
Question 3 What is a very large hill called?
General knowledge. It gives (almost) everybody a fair chance.
ReplyDeleteAs for the last quiz and my hope that doing so badly wasn't a sign of things to come, that hope was dashed last night. My team of four (instead of the regular six or seven) achieved only 25 points; the two winning teams split the first place between them, both having 29 points, and there were teams at 28, 27 and 26 points. Of course we still had a fun evening, but if we want to stop our star from sinking further, we need to do better next year.
Try secretly using a smartphone or smartwatch - I think you will do much better then.
DeleteI've sent my completed form to your mobile 'phone.
ReplyDeleteIt's only mobile because I unplugged it.
DeleteAlternative answers give everyone a fair chance even if one doesn't know anything...
ReplyDeletePoint taken Monica.
DeleteI've sent it off to Pudding Tower. Preferably an easy one that doesn't hurt my brain. Geography, history, biology and languages are fine. Definitely not films or music.
ReplyDeleteHow about "Famous people who have lived in Beckenham apart from Addy Higginbottom"?
DeleteYep. That would be a good topic
DeleteHow amazing that I correctly guessed your surname!
DeleteFinally, Google has let me comment!
ReplyDeleteI don't mind what sort of quiz really, I'm bound to make a hash of the answers, so it's just a bit of fun. No silver cups or rosettes on my mantlepiece!
Just out of interest, noting your very impressive address, have you given your office (the one under the stairs) a make-over worthy of your official status? In spite of protests from the neighbours, have you demolished the East wing, and did Shirley give you that black eye when she found out?
I guess that Google temporarily barred your comments because of repeated use of expletives.
DeleteP.S. Clever you for spotting the address!
I like all the ideas, though I tend to lean toward an easy one to make myself feel smart.
ReplyDeleteYou mean - just like the cognitive tests that your president "aced" on each occasion.
DeletePick the quiz you want, Neil. I don't mind if I don't know the answers. Maybe I will learn something?! I'm no good at geography, though.
ReplyDeleteGenerous to have no preferences.
DeleteEasy, and themed with questions that have universal answers.
ReplyDeleteYou mean like an answer that reveals how big our universe actually is?
DeleteMedium difficulty and Christmassy or anything except celebrities please
ReplyDeleteJane
Are you not a celebrity then Jane? I thought you starred in the Tarzan films.
DeleteDifficulty level is highly subjective me thinks….do whatever pleases you
