WQ#100 - The Century Barbecue & Puzzles Party

For those who have not been keeping tabs on Ye Wilde Quiz, a ton of WQs or Ye Wilde Century Quiz (aka WQ#100) is almost upon us.
We'll celebrate 100 Wilde Quizzes on Thursday 1 August, starting at the unusual time of 7pm or even a bit earlier. There will be a barbecue before and during the usual party quiz rounds and games. Unlike the rest of the summer, reservations for this special quiz are absolutely needed, if only for organisational reasons. To date we have 6 tables left, maybe 7 if Cannonballs are out. Phone Oscar Wilde if you want in, NO emails or SMS.
The BBQ is going to be BYO - bring as much or as little as your team wants to throw on the grill (sausages, steak, veggies, small cows...) - makes it easier for you and for us to plan, avoiding leftovers or shortages, and you can be sure that you get exactly what you want. If you want to rustle up a salad or desserts for your team and your neighbours - sharing is caring.
As mentioned above, we will have games rounds, and the question/music rounds might be more but shorter, making sure everyone gets the chance to win a round of shots. I'll be figuring out the rest in the next 2 weeks, ideas or wishes welcome. Discuss this in the FB group.
First though WQ#99 is coming up on Thursday 25 July and I can promise it will be fun. Especially since it will be Charlie's Angels' last week :)

Poster puzzle me this

As usual, I was looking for someth.. ah, you know the story by now.
In case you ever find yourselves online and bored, try these really cool movie poster puzzles. I normally use the site for research on film posters and stuff but apparently it is as much about edumaction as it is entertaining. Might have given me an idea.
Talking about Given, ALLÉZ L'IRLANDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (apologies LN, I'll cheer for la belle France on Wednesday ;)

Quiky Two-Five-Oh - Rankings


some 40-odd heads and a few prominent ones missing (can't have 'em all, can ya?!?)
Pity that the whole thingie has become so popular (I KNOW I shouldn't be complaining and I'm not, really, like.. but..) there's always too many teams for games rounds (I've already folded up tons of little envelopes for Spice World (aka Heiteres Gewürzeraten or Guess The Spice :)
What with the summer & holidays over soon and pub season starting again that's not likely to change so maybe we could do a round just for fun after one of the next quizzes.. outside, in the rain... if you're interested a) let me know and b) turn up early so that we'll have some time left after..
