I was asked last week which are the easiest and hardest quizzes to win each week.
To answer this, we have to consider two key factors: How busy is the venue and how smart are the regulars?
Basically, you’ve got a better chance of winning any given quiz if it’s relatively quiet and the people there are relatively dumb.
Now I can only really talk for the venues I host personally but I would score them as follows:
Basically, the lower it appears on this list, the easier it’s going to be to win at that venue:
Brass Leith – BUSY 90% – SMART 80% – overall 85%
Brass Shore – BUSY 80% – SMART 80% – overall 80%
Brass Grange – BUSY 90% – SMART 70% – overall score 80%
Persevere – BUSY 70% – SMART 80% – overall score 75%
Joker – BUSY 50% – SMART 90%- overall score 75%
.Brass Drummond St – BUSY 70% – SMART 40%- overall score 55%
Safari – BUSY 40% – SMART 60%- overall score 50%
Newsroom – BUSY 60% – SMART 30% – overall score 45%
Hot Toddy – BUSY 20% – SMART 60% – overall score 40%
I’ll ask the quizmasters to give me a ranking for the other venues and I’ll publish the findings on Facebook later.
