I take part in a regular quiz along with my ex and my two daughters. Every week the quizmaster randomly selects one team to pick a specialised round for the following week. As it happened, last week it was our turn to pick. None of the girls could pick a topic so I did. My choice - pretty obvious given my modelling interests - was "Fighter Aircraft of WWII".

The quizmaster duly prepared a set of 10 multiple choice questions which appeared in last night's quiz.

Would anyone like to see what he contrived? I'm not going to run any sort of quiz with you guys 'cos everyone would get everything right, but I thought you might like to see what someone who has no interest in the subject came up with.

PS I could have just written the questions for you but that's a LOT of typing so I want to find out if there's any interest first.

Edit: This is why I asked about the fastest airplane - just in case it appeared. It didn't!
 
I had to do the quiz for my club’s Christmas meeting. If anyone is interested I’d post it up for fun(?) not wishing to hijack your thread Gern.

I win a quiz every morning, I manage breakfast without getting reminded of the jobs that need doing. For instance today - 'The patio needs cleaning...' - 'Is it okay if I do it after the torrential rain stops???'
Put the quiz up and I will attempt it...
 
I'd be interested both to see what he came up with and whether I know any of the answers :)
 
There's often a disconnect between the ACTUALquestion asked, what the questioner THINKS is the answer, and what the answer to the question as asked is.

So let's hear them

Which is why they always that most important 'Get out of jail' card - 'That's not the answer I have here' !
 
"Which is why they always that most important 'Get out of jail' card - 'That's not the answer I have here' !"

That's why so many questions are worded like "According to Dickypedia in [ insert year here ] how many ..... " etc
 
'But I wrote that article!?'

Apologies for the, usual, continued digression, but I remember a Mastermind way back when, when almost the only person they could find to set the questions for a contestant's specialist subject, was the contestant himself!

So, I'm looking forward to THESE questions
 
Yep, I enjoy a quiz, can spark some interesting debates when the answers are disputed

Miko (forum quizzes are a great distraction when a build descends in chaos!)
