I suggested this in General Bullshit yesterday, so I thought I'd give it its own thread to see if there would be much/any interest.

It would essentially be a CaB edition of the pop quiz I've been doing most Fridays over the past few months over Webex*.

I posted the rounds of a previous one here if you want to see what the format was like.

Anyway, who fancies it?

_{*yes, I know, but it works}

Might be up for it.

How much hassle is Webex to install? I’m incredibly lazy and only have Zoom.

How hard is the quiz?

DrGreggles · « **Reply #4 on:** October 31, 2020, 06:20:01 PM »

Not very. Assuming you've heard some pop music in the last 40 years.

DrGreggles · « **Reply #5 on:** October 31, 2020, 07:48:32 PM »

Maybe another time then.

Clatty McCutcheon · « **Reply #6 on:** October 31, 2020, 07:53:18 PM »

Yeah, would be good another time, if enough people are up for it.

Can't do tonight. Definitely potential to make this your 'here comes quizzm' though. And by that I mean the questions are too hard, the quizzes arrive late and you drop it after 3 episodes.

I miss Here Comes Quizm. WORRRRGHHHH HOW'D YOU GET ON WITH THEM, THEN? Bloody adore Al Needham.

Up for this, Greggles.

Jockice · « **Reply #9 on:** October 31, 2020, 08:52:13 PM »

I'll give it a go if I'm not out that night. Which I won't be.

DrGreggles · « **Reply #10 on:** October 31, 2020, 09:44:32 PM »

Next Saturday?
We can all just ignore the Halloween theme...

shiftwork2 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 31, 2020, 09:48:22 PM »

Nailed on. By that I mean, very likely.

Rich Uncle Skeleton · « **Reply #12 on:** October 31, 2020, 09:58:58 PM »

Yeah go for it

Janie Jones · « **Reply #13 on:** November 01, 2020, 12:22:35 AM »

Saturday 7 November? Yes, please.

Near enough to Halloween innit

ElTwopo · « **Reply #15 on:** November 03, 2020, 10:29:11 PM »

I'm definitely up for this also. Can't do much worse than I do on the Chart Music quiz, he says hopefully.

DrGreggles · « **Reply #16 on:** November 04, 2020, 07:13:47 AM »

It's much easier than Here Comes Jism.

Although I compile it, so I know all the answers.

DrGreggles · « **Reply #17 on:** November 04, 2020, 05:04:49 PM »

8pm Saturday
Plenty booze on standby

I'll post the link on the day

Janie Jones · « **Reply #18 on:** November 06, 2020, 07:00:24 PM »

So this is tomorrow. I’ll be grand if you’re covering 1966-84, anything in the last 36 years, not so much. Whatever, it’s just a birra fun. See you tomorrow Dr Greggles

DrGreggles · « **Reply #19 on:** November 07, 2020, 09:32:43 AM »

Not sure there's much 60s in there, but the rest is a broad enough mix.
All answers have been verified by Paul Gambaccini (pictured below, taking a shit in a library).

DrGreggles · « **Reply #20 on:** November 07, 2020, 01:49:01 PM »

Is it 'safe' to post the link in this thread, or should I send it via PM?

Shoulders?-Stomach! · « **Reply #21 on:** November 07, 2020, 01:51:50 PM »

I think you'd be ok there. We post zoom links...

DrGreggles · « **Reply #22 on:** November 07, 2020, 02:02:00 PM »

True. And uninvited nutters have hardly ever appeared!

DrGreggles · « **Reply #23 on:** November 07, 2020, 05:50:09 PM »

Headphones advised

Clatty McCutcheon · « **Reply #24 on:** November 07, 2020, 06:49:19 PM »

I'm hoping to join, assuming I manage to download the correct software.

DrGreggles · « **Reply #25 on:** November 07, 2020, 07:02:18 PM »

My Nan managed it, so you should be OK.

She's banned from attending tonight though. The foul-mouthed cunt...

DrGreggles · « **Reply #26 on:** November 07, 2020, 08:01:22 PM »

We have begun

Shoulders?-Stomach! · « **Reply #27 on:** November 07, 2020, 08:14:42 PM »
