Fun Event for Lockdown

Last Sunday night I was invited to join a family Quiz Night on Zoom. My family in Scotland had done it the previous week and it was so much fun they decided to continue, and Alan invited me to join the fun.

Altogether, there were six households represented. Each household had to come up with six questions, everyone took turns asking the questions and then at the end the answers were revealed. My presence was to be a surprise, so some of the questions were Britain-centric. and I didn’t know them, so I’m hoping there won’t be as many of those tonight! (I have my questions ready, and I think a couple of them might be challenging!)

I’m passing this idea on just in case any of you might want to do something similar. Good luck and have fun!

  1. If the answer is correctly guessed, are there points scored? Are there assigned categories? Does each person ask their 6 before it’s the next person’s turn?

    • 1. Yes, you get a point for each correct answer. If there are multiple answers (eg name three of Henry VIII’s six wives), you get one point for each.
      2. No assigned categories. People just have random questions. My brother usually has a theme (last night all the answers had the name of a bird even though the questions were very different), but there are no rules.
      3. Yes, we each ask our six questions and when everyone is done we give the answers.
      4. Someone is keeping a running total — I’m currently second from last!
      There are no rules, Sharon. Make them up as you go along!
