If you're anyone who's anyone, you'll have probably done a quiz on lockdown with friends or family. Zoom is the one to go to apparently. I've done a few now.

Thought it would be cool to do an OcUK pub quiz... I have a paid for Zoom account, so happy for that to be used. People could sign up for it with team names etc. would be cool if there could be a small OcUK prize or something?

Just a thought but would be quite fun I thought. I know people on IT forums don't like to see other people, but you know. :p

Opening for discussions....

Good idea. But how do you propose stopping sneaky ******** from Googling the answers?

We need a lot of questions that are Google proof. :)

Also, there can only be one winner, the whole forum cannot be a winner, otherwise I'd be handing out 100K chairs, which is not going to happen either. So to be clear, there is 1x chair! :D

Oh wow, this is cool. Let's get this going then!

Have a 5 second window to answer questions?
Yea, something like this. I know it's impossible to completely rule out, but quick rounds would be ideal.

I think we should break it up into rounds, suggestions for subjects for each round? We could do tech/sport/OcUK specific Qs/ general knowledge or something?

Happy to be quiz master or help construct it, think it could be great fun!

A colleague of mine did a Zoom pub quiz the other week and the questions were done using https://kahoot.it ... you only have a limited time to answer (using your phone as the answering device, selecting from multiple choice) which somewhat limits the cheating.

In the pub
I'd join in with a team that is doing it for fun, I have a Noble chair already so not interested in winning it. I'd have nowhere to put it.
A donation to play sounds like a good idea but not sure how you would set this up.

Could nominate 1 person from each team to answer a question before the question is set, not only does this reduce the chances of cheating but could have amusing answers.
