Auf ein Neues - Denk Mal! Quiz läuft. Und läuft. Und läuft...

Greetings Queops, old ones and newbies :)
Last week's quiztravaganza was a lot of fun and brought us new friends and challengers who might not have won the first time round but will return to make up for it..
Unfortunately my score sheet seems to have gone AWOL but I distinctly remember that Schivelbeiners beat BallZ by a point and a half... and that after all those years of absence ;) - WELL DONE!! But can you repeat the feat??? :)
Newbies Kürbishirne (aka Pumpkin Brains) might not have had the best start but managed to nab the YOGI for next week... wenn ihr das lest, schickt mir bitte bis spätestens Sonntag Abend eure Vorschläge für 2 Runden .. je mehr desto besser. Falls ihr nicht mehr wißt, was ihr warum und wie wohin schicken sollt... einfach ne kurze Mail an quiz_miz@hotmail.com und ich erklär's euch ;)
Oder findet einfach unsere kleine Quiz-Familie auf Facebook (zumindest vorerst noch)

If you want in on the fun please phone Denkmal Lounge to book a table, we've already got 8 teams in the book and tables are getting rare ;)

Endings.. and new beginnings... and bonus points for DMQ#12

Forgive me, Queops, for one again I have been tardy. RL had grabbed the reins and galloped off.. but I've got back on track. So have the (mostly) regular quiz nights...

We end season 18 of our Quiz Champions League this Thursday, with CannonBallZ looking like sure-fire champs (there are only so many miracles left in this world).. Any team, old or newbie, is welcome to try and at least take the victory on Thursday, so that BallZ might not get too big for their boots ;)

On 1 November we start with the new Quiz Champions League season, open for all who want to take their chance of grabbing that trophy and bragging to friends, colleagues or family. The next dates are 15 November, and probably 22 November as well.

If you are game, and want to give the Championes a good run for their money, or if you just want to have some fun, do phone Denkmal Lounge to book your table. Number is in the right-hand column (as are the general rules and details, and our email addy). If you have any questions do send a mail (I'll try to answer in timely fashion) or join our merry band of queops over in the FB group Brains in Berlin.

And for those who have decided to join us this week, here are a few extra points to be had in our PREDICTION OF THE WEEK.
