rounds of 10-12 questions including name the
face-photographic hand out rounds. The remaining five
rounds are selected from a large list of ever changing
subjects, all with a full international flavour. The
winning team receives a 500B credit (which can be used at
any time) with the runners up receiving a credit for 2
jugs of beer. It is emphasized that this is not a UK or US
based quiz but is truly international so anyone who can
understand “Scottish-English” is free to join in.
