Ugh, I have woken up with a really fucking sore back, just what I wanted. Did a pub quiz last night, managed to get some people really annoyed with some questions, was very funny.
Thankfully I don't have kids yet, so this isn't too much of an issue.
Alt: It's not too bad here. I'm not a fan of daylight savings in the winter, but the first Monday after the clocks change in March, when you leave work and it's still light, I don't mind it too much then.

Scandals at our quiz since there is now a rollover cash prize for part of it wifi is switched off and mobiles can't be used. Fucking students.

No checking them during questions, and we mark after every round, making it a little easier to stop cheating.

One of the questions was What is the only country beginning with A that doesn't end in A? I answered that both Afghanistan and Azerbaijan begin but not end in A and the fuckers marked it wrong. Im still fucked off about it.

I used to do a quiz where the pub owner wrote it, and he used to deliberately put in questions that had multiple answers and then only accept the ones he liked. Also, a series of increasingly odd questions including my favourite "If Istanbul was Constantinople and Iraq was Mesopotamia, what was Iceland?"
He said he did it to stop "professional" quiz teams turning up and winning every week. Which was reasonable, if a little odd.
