LightSpeed Individual Open Buzzer Quiz 2015

Tournament 6 'Irish Championship' Saturday 24^th October

Results

Eleven players, eleven rounds, 30 questions each

Our Rookie, Mike Lees, asked the best question ever.. "Who is the lead singer with Fall Out Boy?". I was wearing a Fall Out Boy tour shirt from a couple of weeks ago and love 'em to bits!

If you want to watch the games They should all be up by November, please be patient!

I don't think I have ever been as impressed with a LightSpeed winner as I was today. It was, in retrospect, flipping close for the money, but the most improved of our many improved players was Clive Dunning!!

Next Event:

The next event is in fairly short order, in three weeks, on 14th November back at The Sun Inn at Stockton-On_Tees, where we are already just two short of the dozen, so if you do want to join in it's first come first served at facebook events pages

Mark and I will be on the 8.49 from Leeds to Thornaby (which is a pleasant 15 minute walk along the river) from the pub. The cheap tickets were still available at the time of writing to go by train; if you go here here I generally find you can get the best deals on train tickets.

The 'Special' will be a Blind Pairs competition (Yes, there are TWO trophies for it). It will be a buzzer quiz (wow, whatever next?), with 50 questions (with a point a pound spent), when you buzz for your partner to answer, and the slightly different scoring system of three for correct, TWO away for incorrect interruption, ONE away for ANY other incorrect answer.

It'll be rotating QM's, same as Rochdale, and although stressful, the fact is we come to quiz, so we will have plenty of questions. As a lasting monument to my Thermopylae answer, the LSQ will comprise 300 questions, or the nearest whole number that may be divided equally between us.

Please come along and join us
