Cheers Jon.
I know quizzes arent everyones idea of fun, but I'm trying to make sure the questions cover as wide an age group and knowledge base as I can, as well as trying to make it a bit quirky. As Jon said its £3 per person, but I will be shaking more cash out of you during the evening As an example, last year some Directors and players were "auctioned" with the highest bidders getting an extra team member for the night. It's not many people who can claim they bought Lee Brown and Tom Parkes for £20!
I will try and copy/paste one of last years rounds on here to give you a flavour.

A Gaschat and FFS team/s seems a good bit of fun.

Quizzes are very hard to pitch. Too easy or hard and everyone gets bored. An average score of about 50-75% is the target.
Which 8 did you get? As a team you will probably know more. You might be able to get the connection with 8 answers, which should help you take a guess on the remaining 11.
