Quiz 404

Again only four teams last night albeit more people however I'm far from happy. John of VCJD has had some really good ideas and I thank him for that but I feel we need to get people back first! What I really want to know is why the old regular teams like The Dimwits for example don't come anymore? or any of the regular teams. That's the biggy. It's really not worth trying to implement something radical while the quiz is dying on it's arse.

Last night's winners were VCJD with 91 points just ahead of Second Place The Alliance with 90 and Third were second timers Demry's Gone with an extremely commendable 86 pts.

I've actually started next week's quiz well basically just set it up I am hoping to get the Guest Round (TV theme tunes) all done tomorrow. Suggestions please quizard_97@yahoo.co.uk
