Re: Setting up a new website - advice would be most appreciated
Had a quick look at the computer games on a small screen and wasn't tempted to go back. Maybe 5 years earlier and I'd have been OK.
70s albums would have been better for me.

Re: Setting up a new website - advice would be most appreciated
Thanks for the comments - I'm changing/simplifying the schedule of posting new quizzes - they will now be posted on mondays, wednesdays and fridays -so everyone knows when to expect a new edition. The wednesday quiz is the "big" one with five rounds as it's running live from 9pm and anyone can join in on zoom; find the code online and/or mail me and i'll add you to the mailing list, but as i'm leaving it online too anyone can take part at any time.
The current quiz is still running and will remain so until tomorrow morning, then i'll post scores and answers as per usual, and a new quiz in the evening. Different topics every time -it's a london themed quiz tomorrow.

I've done the music ones, no point guessing the rest as I avoid That London wherever possible!

I had been doing lots of international themes so thought would do a local one for my "locals" this time - totally different topics again tomorrow.

Re: Setting up a new website - advice would be most appreciated
Received one of my favourite comments yesterday, unc si said " I can’t believe you put that in a quiz." referring to one of the music questions. This quiz running until tomorrow morning, then another quiz posted tomorrow evening, featuring more star wars questions, and ordnance survey map symbols amongst others, I do like to mix it around.

The music round in the sports quiz later might prove interesting, a little bit different.

Re: Setting up a new website - advice would be most appreciated
"Usually" at around this time on a tuesday, i'd be heading towards my regular gig venue to get ready for what should be one of the busiest nights of the week. Alas, might be a little while longer before I can do that again - in the meanwhile, the sports quiz is still running, not many entries yet, the music round is indeed what has caught people out so far.

... and a new quiz for now until monday morning - this might be the last Friday quiz as numbers are down and we're looking to get up and running with more real life events, and of course sports, yay. I'm certainly looking for more paid online zoom-type quizzes before getting back to work in real life corporate and bar events, getting a new agent or two on board next week I hope.

And that's it for the online only quizzes, as i'm starting to get busy again with setting up "real life" work, just taken a couple of bookings for my property/pet business later this summer for example, hurrah. Will still be posting the big weekly quiz though, and it''ll be live on zoom as well tomorrow night, will keep posting links here of course.

Great to see you are still putting so much effort into these A great quiz for anyone new to these parts
I feel guilty I haven't entered for a while but am a bit quizzed out, having to organise one for the folks at works and a pub quiz each weekend !

Re: Setting up a new website - advice would be most appreciated
No worries, I'm posting fewer of these online here, as I'm getting more (paid) live zoom quizzes - one for my alma mater the LSE next week, and one for a political group in Rhode island before independence day, plus I have two new agencies to work with so will hopefully be getting more work there. And it won't be long before the bars are at least partly open, and i'll be back in "real life" business soon after that. I haven't lost any of the bookings for corporate functions that were previously in the diary - they have all just been moved forward a few months, so I'm looking to be hugely busy from october onwards. The big wednesday quizzes will continue for a while though.
