Quiz Update

The NYC’s winter quiz season kicked off again last Wednesday, when the regulars and the newcomers all packed into the dining room for a hectic table quiz.

The heat of the room must have got to the participants as the winning score, from perennial table-toppers Wizard, reflected a lowly 72% rate of correct answers. Well, either the heat or the particularity of the questions themselves!  

Some competitors rose above the conditions. Following Wizard home were T.B.M. and Quiztopher Columbus, with the debutante two-woman team The Trenchers achieving a noteworthy 4th place finish. Stars Of The Sea completed out the placings and deserve a commendation for their orthography.

The next quiz will take place on Wednesday, the 5th November at 8.00pm sharp! All are welcome to join us for a fun evening – true or false?
