Recently we had some girls at the Newsroom who were already pretty pished but obviously were in the mood for MORE BOOZE.
And in such a world full of starvation, corruption, fear and war, who can blame them?
Anyway, it was obvious after one round that they weren’t going to win the quiz so cleverly they resorted to complimenting my hair.

I guess the thought process was that I would be grateful for their compliments and give them extra points and that they will be more likely to win the booze.
This didn’t work so then they offered to share the wine if I fixed it for them to win, also remembering to keep bigging up the DP hair.

When this didn’t work, it got pathetic:

and patheticker

And this is the kind of shit I have to deal with every week. You think being a pub quiz quizmaster is nothing but extreme glamour? Think again. Only the tough survive. True blood.

The question here was “What two tools used to appear on the flag of the Soviet Union”?

Crazy. Can’t see those Ruskie peasants cropping too much of a wheat harvest armed only with plumbing.
Equally, I wouldn’t fancy washing my hands under a sickle. Confusing!

BA Quizzacus … Fool! have been making a few appearances lately at Monday Night at the Reverie.

I like it when teams illustrate their team names.

I like this bonus round entry.
I asked teams to write down ten places named after food and this is what I got:
Tasty!

This is filed as a bad answer but its kinda right.
This is from the round where all of the answers start with the same letter. In this case the letter was E, which this team had worked out but they just couldn’t think of the word eggplant – so ended up guessing this:

My opening round is the 50-50 round in which all the questions are multiple choice with two possible answers. It’s a nice and easy way to get started.
Not everyone makes it easy for themselves though.
The question here was: “Which is higher – Council Tax Band A or Council Tax Band H?”

Hey, that was the nineties. How the fuck did you know?

Actually, they was great days. £10 a shot, 2 times a week, plus £2 bonus and it didn’t affect your benefits. Rollin’!

Recent picture round question from the Brass Monkey Leith asked about Jude Law in the 2009 film Rage. I got this comment handed to me:

“There is no way that is Jude Law”
Aye but it is. See this blog or, better still do a Google Images search for “Jude Law Rage“

Margaret Thatcher LG, OM, PC, FRS hasn’t been Prime Minister for 20 years but hasn’t yet achieved that rosy glow of nostalgia in Scotland.
She was the answer to a question in the quiz recently and this is what one of our the handed in:

There is a similar amount of love for the ex-PM on Facebook where pages like this proliferate.
