You have until Saturday 8pm to get 4 points for next week's quiz by predicting

Get your crystal balls and tea leaves out and send me a mail or leave your prediction in the fb group,

Good luck, see you on 19th May for lots of new pick&mix rounds (one of which will be Eurovision :)

New beginnings - starting the third century of Wilde Quizzes

Forgive the tardiness, Queops, but with these month-long breaks between quizzes other things occupy the mind ;)

OF COURSE there will be a quiz on Thursday 12 May (not that I have even one single question ;) ... but dafür loads of kewl pics) and since the pickNmix system we used for #200 seemed to be popular among most teams, we shall keep it for now.

I do not know what the future brings (not even beyond the next 8 weeks) but we will start Champions League Season 17. The rest time will tell.

And since Vicky's Warriors and Quizzee Rascals won't return on Thursday, I have Yogi.

The new system (2x5Qs) allows for loads of topics so shout out your preferences (except boybands, Justin Bieber, quantum anything, Cartrashians...) It's easier to find 5 questions per topic, rather than 9. You can suggest cool combos if you like (e.g. small dogs+large bodies of water, 70s' fashion+Asian cuisine, video games+Victorian novels etc.)

We still have a few tables so if you want in for one of those rare fun nights, send me a mail ;)

Looking forward to Thursday and WQ#201. Try to be on time ;) .. I shall, too, 

Wilde Quiz wird 200 - the big jubilee party quiz party

QUEOPS!!!
The time has come to celebrate 200(+) nights of mysteries, music and mayhem.

YE WILDE QUIZ #200 kicks off on Thursday 21 April at 8pm. Or thereabouts. The reigning and almost all previous champions will be there, as well as some newbie teams who want to challenge the old boys and girls. We'll reminisce and riddle, play silly games (long time no pitcher round ;) and o/c we'll have the usual nuts and drinks. And songs. And ridiculous videos. Even more than ususal.

As of Sunday 17 April we still have 2 tables for anyone who wants in. Simply send a mail to quiz_miz@hotmail.com.. first come first served.

Those of you who have a table, please be there in time, due to the high number of newbies we might need a bit more time.

I look forward to seeing all the old faces (some of them will remember Wilde Quiz #001) and meeting new Freunde der fiesen Fragen :)

April / May change of plans

The best laid plans of mice.. and quiz mizzes [sic] .. these days, King Football is messing with our plans...

• Wilde Quiz #199 (Champions League Season 16 Finale), Thursday 31 March, 8pm, NOW 2 TABLES LEFT (reservations till 5pm, or you just come down to Oscar's tonight)
• NO QUIZ on Thursday 7 April (due to Europa League football fixtures)
• Wilde Quiz #200 - JUBILEE!!!! all sorts of fun questions, big WQ review, music, nuts, drinks, pics.. QuizParty, like :) , 5 tables left, Thursday 21 April, 8pm
• Wilde Quiz #201 - still with a BIIIIIG question mark, Thursday 12 May, 8pm

Please note: all quizzes are reservation only, all reservations by mail to quiz_miz@hotmail.com.

Beware, the ideas for March

Quick update regarding the March schedule. For people who don't read the small print on the right.

THERE IS NO QUIZ on 17 March. It's Paddy's Day and the only questions asked on that day will be "where the feck is my drink" and "why the fook are you wearing that silly green hat?"

The #GrandeFinale of Champions League Season 16 will take place on Monday 14th or Monday 21st March. Final date will be announced as soon as the facebook group has agreed on one. Caveat: groups of 8 and more players will be excluded from this one as recent history has shown an annoying lack of discipline in large groups. Champions League Final is all about quiz, No partying.

We shall have reason to party (and quiz) later in March. The BIG#200 is coming up and we're gonna celebrate that one with a quiz party like none before. Details here as soon as we have them. Date will most likely be the 31st March.

For the time being RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED. The quizzes are almost always fully booked, walk-ins don't have a chance of getting a table. Most importantly - reservations can only be made by mail to quiz_miz@hotmail.com. If you phone Oscar Wilde to book a table I will not get the information till one hour before quiz starts and by that time it's too late.

WQ#198 - wir sind schon voll

Wilde Quiz #198 on 3 March is all booked up, no tables left.
try again later in March.
