The MD Pop Quiz - Tiggi - 25-04-2010
Right, this thread is hereby designated "A good Thing", and has been turned into a sticky thread.
We need to agree some practicalities, though.
I'll be happy to share the quiz producing duties with Griff, and if anyone else fancies a go, please shout. We could then have some sort of rota.
We can run a quiz per week, with new quizzes being posted on each Saturday.
Googling is down to personal conscience.
If we can agree a simple set of guidelines (no more than a couple of sentences), then with Griff's agreement we can modify his original post to include them.
The floor is open...

This seems fine to me ............I'd like to do say one every two weeks with Tiggi doing the other week..............I'm happy for us to modify the original post to firm up the guide lines.

OK, looking good.
I'll post these rules up, and I'll post the next quiz next weekend. If anyone else wants to post a quiz, just shout. Someone might want to post a set of questions on their specialist tastes, or just have the fun of setting some brain-teasers
A quizzing we will go...
