Weekly Quiz 269 - October 23rd 2011

This complete pub quiz pack contains 7 high quality quiz rounds as follows...

Round 1: Same Title, Different Song
This handout round features 15 pairs of musical acts, where each pair have both had a top 20 hit single with a song of the same title. The aim for teams is to name these titles. For example, the correct answer to "David Bowie and Chris Rea" is Let's Dance.

Round 2: General Subject
10 questions on Geography.

Round 3: Specialist Subject
10 questions in a round called The X Factor versus Strictly Come Dancing.

Round 4: Connections
7 general knowledge questions followed by a final question worth 3 points asking for a connection between the previous 7 answers.

Round 5: General Subject
10 questions on Famous People.

Round 6: Initial Letter Link
10 general knowledge questions where the answer to the final question can be spelt out by rearranging the first letters of the first 9 answers.

Round 7: Stick Or Twist
The final round, in which teams are faced with an option to gamble or play safe. This features 5 questions where question 1 is worth 1 point, question 2 is worth 2 points and so on, and where teams can choose to "stick" and stop answering questions in this round at any point. The reason they may want to do this is because if they put down a wrong answer then they automatically score 0 for this round!

The pub quiz quiz pack is made up of 4 separate files as follows...

First of all there is a professionally designed 2 page answer sheet, which is to be printed out and distributed to each team at the start of the quiz for them to write their answers on as you read out questions. This also features a round by round scoresheet to make it easy to see how each team has performed after all the answers have been marked at the end of the quiz.

Secondly, there is a handout round, which again is to be printed out and distributed to each team at the start of the quiz for them to work on straight away, and carry on working on throughout the quiz and during any breaks you have.

Next there is a 4 page sheet featuring all the questions in rounds 2 to 7 for you to read out during the quiz, along with all the answers to these plus the answers to the handout round to be used at the end of the quiz to mark everyone's answers. This also features 2 tie-break questions to be used at the end of your quiz if two or more teams end up with the same score.

Finally, there is a 4 page sheet featuring detailed round by round instructions and notes, plus general advice and recommendations on running the quiz.

Please note that if you run a regular quiz and would prefer an adapted version of our weekly quizzes (e.g. custom text or logo on answer sheets, easier or more difficult questions, etc.) then we should be able to supply you with your own custom version of our weekly quizzes. If you e-mail sales@bubbletreequizzes.com with details of how you like the quiz adapted, then someone will get back to you to discuss this.
