GO!!!

Here we go again... QuizYear 2016 is GO!

Good morning fellow Queops, and the best wishes for a happy, healthy, peaceful, and quizzical new year. May it bring much fun, and many new friends, entertainment, excitement, new champions and old time-honoured traditions. And may it still leave a few questions unanswered so that we'll always have a reason to meet again.

That said - we start the quiz year with WQ#194 on Thursday, 7 January. 2016. As usual, this one is the big 2015 Review Quiz so do read up on stuff and people that happened and mattered last year.

We still have a few tables, so if you want in - send me a mail.

Quereinsteiger have Yogi (IF they want to play next Thursday) and have to send me their favourite topics by Sunday 9pm.

POTW follows later today.

And now a restful and peaceful New Year's Day, and a lovely first 2016 weekend.
See you soon.
