Do we have to refresh the page or should new posts appear automatically?

Hi Cactus. That's four of you now.

I shall start by explaining the format. This will take a few minutes, so that will give time for late arrivals to hop on board.

In total there will be 15 questions. The first 12 questions are broadly themed on the 12 Days of Christmas. The last three will be general knowledge questions.

You get a point for a correct answer, nothing for a wrong answer.

The only difference to this is the final two general knowledge questions. If nobody gets the correct answer a point will go to whoever is closest.

It is taken as read that you are all honourable and none of you will use Google. All that will show is what a big fat cheat you are. :)

Ok, so how do we know when a question is posted unless we refresh the page every minute or so?

Why are we waiting?

I will post one question at a time, in it's own thread.

You will have a minute to respond to the question with your answer, BY SENDING ME A PM.

Once you have finished the question, return to the Quiz forum and wait for the next question.

If you don't know how to send a PM, please say so now.

I shall be using this website as a timer, so you will all know when I am posting.

https://time.is/

The aim will be to post one question every two minutes, at the start of the minute.

So if we start at 7:15, the next question will be posted at 7:17 etc. You will have to refresh your browser to see the new question.
