    Why, are they all socially inept with no personalities?

    Suppose with all that knowledge there is no room for a personality.

    Yeah, The Spice Girls.

    Looks like Hip Cats only missed on too though? Just happened in a different round which made all the difference. Or am I reading it wrong.

    We missed two. We had 1927 for the Oscars and I went with 12th of Feb for groundhog day. That'll haunt me. Two numbered questions and we were incorrect by a combined total of 3 digits

    Cheers for running it Kolido, well done to the winners. Our team had some seriously good quizzers in the chat, blew me out of the water on some of them.

    Oh, and suck it Necro

    Or five mins

    If most people used discord you could time limit it a bit more, it's logistically hard I'd imagine though

    Glad it's not just me who finds them to be an obnoxious bunch of bottom feeders. The sense of smug self-satisfaction just oozes from all of them, I'd say they're all insufferable ar$é holes in real life

    I've only ever seen it a couple of times, and what really irritated me was that they felt they had to explain every answer in minute detail to so obviously demonstrate just how clever they are. The most incredibly punchable group of people I've ever seen.

    I would well be up for a one night quiz on here. Discord is actually perfect for the answer discussion. Maybe 30 minutes per round with 6 rounds. I think it'd work really well.

    I'd actually probably also be happy to help run one of those. I think if you were doing a 1 night thing though you'd need more than one mod to calculate the scores quickly.

    Yeah I think you would need at least 2 mods. Easy to have all prepared but it could be tough for one person to run all in real time. Also having a time that everyone can agree on being online.

    I would certainly be on for playing.

    You could also do it the way they generally do it irl.

    One mod posting the qs. The other doing the scoring. And give out the scores for round one after round 2 answers come in.

    Would probably need to shorten that to maybe 15-20 min. At 30 with 6 rounds you're talking 3 hours, then add the results part. Probably too long for most folk.

    3 hours from 7-10pm with a maybe 10 minute break in between each one for the second mod to post the scores and first mod to post the answers to the previous round. I think a 4 hour window wouldn't be too much to ask of most people. You'd get games that long for a one night werewolf game sure.

    How do I join. Can I compete as an individual, given that it is impossible to embarrass me, or must I knock up my next door neighbour and badger him into joining in a team with me

    Sign up on thread tusk posted and you'll be assigned to a random team of (probably) 4 players.
