Hi everyone, after the success of the pilot episode of PPQ I’ve discussed some of the rules with another poster on the board, and I think we should discuss this before the next show of PPQ, so as JizzMaster Cop the Quizmaster here us guide to next weeks show.
Tuesday Nights 9.10pm, no excuses for skiving, using college as an excuse!
10 questions per episode, 11 if tie breaker needed
The Points System
First contestant to post correct answer (Fast Finger) = 2
Next contestant to post correct answer = 1
No prizes for coming 3rd folks!
QI - I’m also going to introduce the QI style question, where you can lose points for giving me the obvious wrong answer… I tried it with the Sol Campbell answer last week hoping somebody will say Vinnie Jones, but it didn’t work.
Research
I'm going to have it as an “unwritten rule” that you CAN do research, because people will research, and it won’t be fair on those not cheating.
I can’t prove if somebody researches the answers or not, and I fear it could start arguments and accusations of people cheating, and we don’t want that. It also keeps everybody involved, for example, if I asked a question about football, it gives somebody who isn’t keen on footy the chance to grab a point, rather than just sitting there having to pass.
After all it’s an internet based quiz, why not use it, we have whole world at our fingertips.
I write the questions myself, so contestants can’t simply copy and paste my question into Google, and the idea is that the quiz is really easy, and its fastest finger first, that’s why I give a point for somebody in second place. This way you don’t have a Smart Alec way ahead in the lead. In the first show, on question 18, it was neck and neck with all three of the contestants.
It was quite exiting keeping the scores.
'Heavens! Our goofy wit!
There will be some better rounds in there too, such as anagrams (such as TV show above), more questions on soaps, and each show will have a Finchy related question... so it will be interesting to see which fan can answer the most questions on him.
Do your research on Bar Stewards, the cast, crew and maybe even other posters; there might be a question about you! So, if you can’t find your birth certificate or dental records, I might have them!
Editing and Deleting = Cheating!
The other rule I am introducing is no editing or deleting posts, if a contestant has spelled something wrong, or given the wrong answer, then that’s tough luck. The editing of posts confused me as the quizmaster; sometimes it was difficult to keep track of who said what first etc. If, I mean WHEN caught, you will lose points, no excuses!
Tuesday Night is Burnley FC Night
Sometimes, PPQ will need a guest presenter when JizzMaster Cop is watching The Clarets getting stuffed by somebody crap like QPR, I will announce it on this thread when I am not available. Somebody will take the hotseat… beware, it might be slimy!
Can we have Birty, Mike, Ash, Chris, Tim, Strawbs, Rach, Rachael, Camp David, Sparky, and Jackie etc involved this week please, you missed a right good do!
