New peoples - you are all more than welcome to join in, just don't bother checking for the answers cos we will notice and you will get ridiculed and then we get accused of bullying and ... just dont cheat. Read the rules first and have a look at the last quiz to see how people reply. Please don't post the actual answers cos then others will just copy you.
The rules:
- There are three rounds in each game. Each question is harder than the one before it. That said, they are only hard if you don't know the answer!
- Each question in round one is worth 5 points, round two is 10 points and round three is 15 points.
- Checking your answers is not allowed (i.e. googling them). This is only for fun so I shall trust that you haven't cheated.
- However, you have two chances to get help throughout the quiz. These lifelines take the form of being allowed to check two of your answers (i.e. on Google or Wikipedia), but you need to indicate that you have done so. These answers will only get you five points each, regardless of which round they are in.
- To give your answers, please reply with only the question number and the letter A, B, C or D. This way it shouldn't be spoiled for those answering after you. I'll probably not give the correct answers for a couple of days.
- I will post you your score out of 15 and the number of points you have received. The points will go into the leaderboard. Unfortunately, I can't promise to tell you which ones you personally got correct or wrong.
- The quiz masters decision is final (unless you can convince me otherwise!)
