Throughout August and September we ran
blonde's Greatest Mind, a quiz designed to find blonde's best "quizzer". The link to the thread is below where you can see TightEnd eventually prevail via a tie-break in the final versus mulhuzz, with sharplea only one point behind in 3rd place.
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=65812.0There seemed to be interest in what can be described as a second season of the quiz, so here it is.
We need 32 players for bGM2. And there are slight changes to the format to keep more players interested for longer.
Round 1: 8 groups of 4 players will battle over 15 general knowledge questions, with the top 3 players in each group progressing to Round 2.
Round 2: 24 players remain. 6 groups of 4 players, again battling over 15 general knowledge questions. The top 2 in each group will make the Quarter-Finals.
Quarter-Finals: 12 left in 6 head-to-head matches. 10 general knowledge questions with an additional 5 questions from both competitors' specialist subjects.
In a change to the last edition, the specialist subjects will likely be a little less vague (there will be 10 to choose from).Semi-Finals: 6 left in 3 head-to-head matches. 10 general knowledge questions with an additional 5 questions from both competitors' specialist subjects.
Final: A final of 3. 15 general knowledge questions, with 5 additional questions from the 3 specialist subjects.
So, basically, declare your entry in the thread and when we're full I'll make the first round draw.
