Ye Wilde Century Quiz - preparations I

Nothing more to say for the moment about food issues (Do you have any? Issues, that is, not food).. BUT rounds & games want preparing too.
As befits a 'potluck' BBQ & party, we will have a 'potluck' round, or consider it 'Secret Santa in Summer'. Each team can send in 5 questions (with matching correct answers) which will then be drawn from a hat and presented to their fellow quizzers. The asking team doesn't have to answer and gets a point for 'Zuarbeit', the others have to answer the questions. 8 teams = 8 questions. 14 teams = 14 questions. (The WQ#100 rounds will not all have the same length, some might be 'speed' rounds, some might be handouts for the whole night, we might have games & creativity rounds.. just saying)
If you pick the most difficult or outlandish ones you can think of, be prepared for your friendly neighbours to do the same. But bear in mind that the idea of the WQ#100 is not to piss off fellow quizzers but to have fun. Just saying ;)
Do send me your lists with questions (of course NOT irrelevant and totally simple stuff like quantum physics, the intricacies of Inuktitut grammar, or the contents of Mariah Carey's closet) by mail to the usual address, by Sunday 9pm at the very latest. If we don't get enough questions ALL have to answer mine ;). Just saying :D

More on plans & organsational details up here as soon as they take shape.
