2012 Christmas Quizzes
« on: December 13, 2012, 19:36:02 »


So I had an idea of running a bunch of quizzes from the 14th until the 20th of December,

I'm awful at typing out this kind of thing so apologies in advance :3

The Quizzes will take place at 8pm each day from the 14th until the 20th.

The basic idea is for 1 quiz a day, for 7 days. To enter, there is a minimum donation requirement of 100k. If anyone wants to donate more they're welcome to do so.
The scoring will be seperate from the general 'Quiz League Table' and will be scored by myself, the person with the most points at the end of the 7 days will be given 50% of all of the donated money, 2nd place 30% and 3rd place 20%.

The quiz topics will be;

4 Christmas themed and related quizzes.
2 General Knowledge quizzes.
And 1 quiz where any Consentus member can PM me a question each, and I will use those questions. (anyone who answers their own question will lose 5 points.)

Also, anyone who answers a question without donating the minimum amount will not be scored and the question will be invalid. (unless someone answers pretty much at the same time and without copying).

The winner MAY also get an image for their signature on the forums.

I will be donating 2.5m to the 'pot' (Thanks to Navid :3)

Um, I can't think of anything else to say right now. May edit later.
Any questions ask and I'll try to bluff a decent reply.


Post either below or in game if you want to donate/enter.
