Yes, all of our quizmasters are volunteers who do this for fun! The second post in this thread (the one with the quiz links) shows all the winners for every quiz, and is never more than a few days out of date. You can actually see when it was last updated - at the moment it is showing that it was last updated 35 minutes ago (to add the quiz from the weekend).

Ah ok thanks for that.
Hi, I know you're all busy but can I be added to the list again? I was on it but for the last two quizzes I wasn't. Thanks :smile:

I also checked the quote list and a lot of the recent user additions aren’t on there.

They are all on the quote list. I suspect it may be that the quizmasters have copied the list from a previous quiz and not from where we store the quote list, meaning an out-of-date version has been posted. I will put out a note to our volunteers.

I haven't received any quote notifications about a new quiz when a new quiz happens so this must be true. I get them from watching this thread.

That'll be due to your username change :wink:

I've put out the note so hopefully this shouldn't happen again. I'm glad you've known about the quizzes from this thread - this is one of the reasons why we post in here each time a quiz is published!

Adam Woodbridge is on the quote list however (fourth from the bottom). Let me know (in the planning thread) if we can delete an old name in that case.

My username changed because a space which I didn't even know was part of my username was deleted. My old username made me have a broken account.

Due to the success of the TSR Pub Quiz series in 2020, we (the Debate and Current Affairs volunteers) decided it would be fun to run a weekly news quiz!
The precise rules for each quiz will be explained in the quiz thread itself. The quizzes are run by myself and other lovely volunteers each weekend and will be publicised here.
The winner of each quiz will receive a prize of 100 rep, so it's all to play for!
If you would like to be added to a quotes list so you get a notification for each quiz, just let me know in this thread!
This thread also contains the links to previous quizzes below, so if you want to join in later on then you can find them easily here.
Quiz of the week number 164 is now liveeee :biggrin:!
