some feedback

very very tough indeed, and likely to put people off entering

particularly inappropriate for a generalist quiz, Q 1 and 2

remainder are guessable, except nirvana. either know that or you don't.


will of course enter, but wouldn't expect a bumper edition sadly

I'm with you on Q1 (pretty sure I've got that wrong), but most people know at least one or two booker prize winners, surely?
havent a clue if bookie prize is fiction or non fiction tbh

Yeah bit tough this one. Although actually listened to Nevermind yesterday so should at least be able to answer a couple. Opening questions bit of a farce imo

Actualy, I think I could have a decent stab at these.
 
They do at least cover a wide range of subjects and some of them you could take a guess at.

yeah but the idea of a RSQ is everyone should know atleast 3 or 4 answers to every question
you shouldnt ever be getting a question wrong apart from a miss read or deliberately trying to not win
guessing to maybe get one right is for pointless

i for one have never heard of that album not my type of music so that would rule out 1 questions, booker prize again unless your into books you dont follow so that 2 passes needed
question 5 would just be pure guess work question 1 i know of 3 groupings but only vaguely know the name of one does anyone pay any attention to the groupings or do we just slag off our own MEPs for having there noses in the trough question 7 is helped by the map

rest of quiz seems fair too middling with a little bit of wiggle room for everyone

I am willing to bet an awful lot of money (which I don't have) that you've heard at least one of the songs from that album :p

Don't worry about it mate, at least you don't think Katy Perry is one of the best selling artists of all time.

Aight, based on freedback I will change question 1 for sure to something more generalist (but probably still politics) as it is admittedly tough.

Additionally I will expand the Nirvana question to include any record on one of the Beatles albums.

Would people be more likely to enter with those conditions?

Obv don't get sharplea references heh and would have liked to keep it the same but when too of (at least seems to me) people on blonde are telling me it's too tough I'll defo change it.

Accepting further feedback until 9pm and then I'll throw the new questions in after the World Cup match.
