Some of you have asked me to host the pub quiz again.

Trying to gauge whether it’s worth running, as not many on here and not all would participate.

Would likely start end oct/beginning of nov if it were to go ahead.

A suggestion would be if you were going to run it, because there's less people posting these days, maybe teams of 2 would be better?

Unless you know a lot about pubs its a waste of time. Lots of questions about breweries, pumps, measures and cask ales

Can we tentatively make teams of 2? And see if you get enough to add third members? Xx

MTVN

Teams of 3 would be good I think! Maybe fewer questions in each round too because I think previously there were like 50 in each round haha

Hold fire for a bit. In case there isn’t enough interest.

:fist: you have 8 already..... that's 4 teams, and I'm sure each could recruit one other person. I've already got 2 potential team mates in mind??

:love: :pipe:

Cherie
22-09-2024, 02:35 PM

Kate!
22-09-2024, 03:31 PM
Suggestion.

Ben assigns the teams at random?

Benjamin

I like the games I host to be drama free. I want the focus to be on the game. :tongue:

Yeah, on second thoughts that's by far the best way.

22-09-2024, 03:46 PM
Just for curiosity, how many yes's do you need?

Vanessa
22-09-2024, 04:19 PM
You have Ness. You've been in a team with me twice xx

Is it? Oh I don't remember that!

Kate!
22-09-2024, 04:32 PM
Is it? Oh I don't remember that!

It was a very long time ago. That's probably why. X

Livia
22-09-2024, 04:44 PM
I'd play, Ben.

Vanessa

I must be getting old. I don't remember :laugh:

At least you're not as old as me :joker:

Benjamin
22-09-2024, 05:04 PM
Just for curiosity, how many yes's do you need?

I’d say 15-20 would be fine.

Benjamin
22-09-2024, 05:04 PM
I'd play, Ben.

Do the 2 withering autumn leaves arista Crimson Dynamo wish to change their minds to make it a nice round 16, which would be 8 teams of 2, or 4 teams of four....next target 20.

Yeah, ideally if we could get teams of 4 would be great.

Ammi
23-09-2024, 05:34 AM
…teams of 4 would be perfect because not every team member is always able to take part in every round so it allows and covers for that as well …I think there will be 4 plus teams so that would work well and 4 is a well balanced team number…and as MTVN said, smaller rounds also…?…

Yeah, ideally 5 teams of 4 would be good.

And yeah rounds defo smaller.
