Pub quiz coming your way!

[ScorpioPower]

I will be the quiz-master at a new pub quiz that will be starting at The Bookhouse in a few weeks time.

It will be an audio-visual extravaganza and great fun all round!

You can come as a team of one, form a team of your own, or just turn up and join a team on the night.

I would like to work out the number of budding participants to expect, so please either PM me to express your interest or let Jeremy know if you happen to be in The Bookhouse.

First come, first served. There are only so many people that can comfortably fit into the courtyard!

The quiz will start as a one-off and if successful, it will become a monthly or even fortnightly event.

Prizes will be on offer at all times!

In the meantime, here are some amusing team names to choose from, but of course you're always free to pick your own!

Hi Scorpio,
Must have taken you some time to think of all the team names.
Sounds okay but sorry to ask,
What night are you proposing?
What time?
Are all questions going to be audio/visual?
Thanks

[Galee]

No Thanks.

I'll stick to Udon's "original" Pub Quiz venue. The Englishmans Retreat.

[ScorpioPower]

1. What night are you proposing?
2. What time?
3. Are all questions going to be audio/visual?

1. Probably a weeknight but not Friday

2. Probably about 7-9pm or thereabouts

3. No, not at all, but the audio/visual stuff will be a lot of fun!

[21again]

Sounds alright Scorpio, all the best as i know it takes time and patience to do a audio/visual, put me down and i'll keep looking on forum for date.
Thanks

[Librarian]

Scorpio suggested , and very kindly offered to organise , a Audio /Visual Quiz Night here at The Bookhouse .
all i need to do is provide the venue and the prizes

it will be a free to enter , something to do on a weekday event .
the prizes will probably be FREE Booze and /or Food , or even a FREE month pass to our vast selection of Books .

the idea is to provide fellow ex-pats with something to do in the week . just for a bit of fun .

those that for whatever reason dont like having fun- dont come

i,m sure many will though !
its not often you get something for nothing .

Librarian

[Eazy-Going]

Englishmans Retreat been holding an excellent quiz for some time now, last Thursday of every month. Well put together, lot's of fun and with a very congenial quizmaster, (Glynn), so I will agree with Galee's post, however good luck. You're even allowed to use your own imagination to choose your own team name at the Retreats quiz, without the use of condescending prompts...but then, they do not have a know-it-all as a quizmaster, (marketing Guru)!!!

[Librarian]

I,m truly baffled sometimes by the kind of responses some guys give - and question the motives behind some of the posts made
whilst the Loyalty to one business owner against another , is admirable , there is no malicious intent on our part to do harm to anyone -

we are simply suggesting to put on a free quiz with prizes , for customers who are looking to find something to do on an occasional evening. just a bit of fun

what if i say i want a pool table , or darts board , is there a monopoly on these ? No , there is not .

did we say we are going to hold a quiz on the last Thursday of each month ? definitely NOT . ( that would be inviting some internet flaming )

simply a quiz night , if it goes down well, it will become a regular event , if it doesnt , we,ll try something else , like a crib night , or dominoes or backgammon .

Librarian

[ScorpioPower]

Actually, Librarian, I'm no longer baffled by anything that happens on this forum!

It would probably be a good idea to also recruit players via a notice board in your courtyard.

[DesertStorm]

Some of those team names have got me a chuckling!

Will the questions be American friendly?

[stattointhailand]

Will the questions be American friendly?

I dare say there may be a few questions about the rest of the world, so it may be a good idea to have one non American on your team

[ScorpioPower]

Some of those team names have got me a chuckling!

Will the questions be American friendly?

Thanks for liking the team names!

As clearly stated in the OP, however, you are very free to choose your own team name of course!

Yes, the questions will appeal to an international audience.

And there will be lots of oohs, ahs and wows along the way, too.

Watch this space!

[Bilko]

Can you believe someone would enter a post informing the forum he would NOT be going. Amazing!

[ScorpioPower]

This is Thailand?

No.

This is Udon Map!

[21again]

Any nearer to a date, sorry for being a pest, but want to be sure i don't miss it, and i always need to plan ahead, well sometimes.

[stattointhailand]

Any nearer to a date, sorry for being a pest, but want to be sure i don't miss it, and i always need to plan ahead, well sometimes.

It's easy ....... just keep the next couple of months clear, and I'm sure you will be free for it

If the OP is anything to go by, with the time it must have taken to come up with so many team names, sorting out the right questions and answers must be a nightmare :-"

[ScorpioPower]

There was Jeremy's investment in the 58" screen TV, that is suspended from his bar and is swivel mounted so that everyone can see what I put through it from a laptop.

Now there's the consideration of what type of PA system to invest in.

And me putting the finishing touches to the audio-visual stuff and the dry run that we're going to give it all.

Watch this space!

[Librarian]

Hey Scorps -

you gave me 8 inches too much :-"

its a 50 inch and not a 58

Librarian

[ScorpioPower]

Well, you mind your 50 inches then... there's plenty of things I can do with 8!

Yes, that's right ladies, EIGHT inches!

First come, first served will not necessarily be the case, but book in advance to avoid intense disappointment.
