Two years ago Quizzes were introduced to the chart forum, with a series of quizzes including Family Fortunes, Pointless, Never Mind The Buzzjacks and Cover Puzzle. In light of the pandemic leaving us all in our own homes for the most part it seems like the ideal time to bring it back for Season 2.
If you would like to host a quiz, then please post here which week you would like to take and what quiz you would like to do. You can do one of the tried and tested formats or if you have your own format explain it to me so it can be considered. Your questions ideally should all be chart/music related; for more general-knowledge quizzes, there will be similar events running in The Lounge in the not too distant future.
The big question now is, will anyone be able to dethrone... ME! from the top of the leaderboard. Last season's leaderboard can be viewed at this http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=211405&view=findpost&p=6033665.
To get the ball rolling I will host the first quiz, which will be unveiled later today. Ideally this season should last for 10 weeks as per S1, with one quiz per week, but this can be shortened or extended depending on demand.
Schedule:
Week 1 (27/03): Pointless [danG] [Entry / Results]
Week 2 (03/04): Family Fortunes [mdh] [Entry / Results]
Week 3 (10/04): Album Cover Puzzle [M4NGO] [Entry / Results]
Week 4 (17/04): Never Mind The Buzzjacks [LewisGT] [Entry / Results]
Week 5 (24/04): Single Cover Puzzle [FUTURE NOSTALGIA] [Entry / Results]
Week 6 (01/05): Family Fortunes [chrissmith276] [Entry / Results]
Week 7 (08/05): Guess the songs that have been at the most different chart positions [jimwatts] [Entry / Results]
Week 8 (15/05): Album Cover Puzzle [awardinary] [Entry / Results]
Week 9 (22/05): Jordan Lee [Family Fortunes] [Entry / Results]
Week 10 (29/05): Bré [Pointless] [Entry / Results]
For those of you unfamiliar with Quizzes here is an explanation of the main formats from Bré.
I’ll host a family fortunes, might as well get back into it now I’m stuck in the house :,)
EDIT - week 2 should be fine
Good to see these back in the Chart Forum, consider me interested (in playing, I'll get back to you re hosting).
I really enjoyed hosting a NMTBJ quiz in the Lounge next year so I'd happily do that again in this. Week 4 maybe
I'll happily host an album covers one - I can do week 3.
I’m happy to do something like a singles artwork one in week 5
If no one else signs up for the last few weeks I'm happy to host something for a second time, I've got a few different ideas.
Leaderboard after week 2
King Rollo takes the lead following his win of Family Fortunes, with Dobbo tied for points - whilst Spiceboy who won Pointless currently sits in 13th as he didn't partake in week 2's quiz, Dan17F1 completse the top 3.

Still in need of volunteers for weeks 6-10.
I'll do a Family Fortunes in Week 6?
Very pleased to be the leader but it won't last as I'm useless at album covers.
Woah how can I be 16th with a 4th and an 8th so far?
I'll sign up to do a Pointless at some point, why not. x
Im liking that one
If the spots don't get filled, I'm happy to host another quiz in one of the later weeks. I could do another album covers one with a different theme, or an audio one similar to Never Mind The Buzzjacks or something else.
Leaderboard after week 3
Bjork climbs three to take the lead whilst we have an all new podium with vibe in 2nd and chrissmith276 in third, as the previous joint leaders in Dobbo and Rollo drop down to 5th and 6th.

@Mango I'll put you down as a backup. Meanwhile do we have any more volunteers?
I've been prepping for a new thread on songs which have been at the most different chart positions - I think it could work as a quiz (i.e. guess the songs). Can do Week 7 or any other.
I'll put you down for week 7.
Just seen the league table !! 🙌
Glad to have climbed into the top 10! 4th place finish in the latest quiz too so I've found my groove after the blip of the first quiz *.*

A 12 place climb, I'll take that *.* kinda struggling with the singles covers though, I think I'll only get about half the points, so I can see me dropping a few places again.

† host compensation points to be added following week 10
Ooh only just clocked that I'm in the top 3 now *.* all pretty close up there
Hang on I got 52 points in the single cover quiz so how come I only gained 28 points on this leaderboard?
I think it's 30 points for finishing 1st in each quiz,29 points for 2nd place and so on.
Ohhhhh I was wondering why everyone didn't move up much in points compared to singles cover results. That makes sense now!
Yes - as you came 3rd you get 28 points for the leaderboard.
I’d be up for trying to host a quiz, like a pointless or family fortunes with music / chart based questions.
which week would you like to take, 9 or 10?
I’ll take week 9!
Gives me a week or so to come up with some questions
I’ll do the results of it on a Sunday if that’s ok revealing the answers slowly throughout the day.
I’m kinda more familiar with Family Fortunes rules wise I think x
Question of Pop anybody???
Leaderboard after week 6
chrissmith276 didn't partake in his quiz so drops down to 6th - but remember host compensation points will be added at the end so he is in reality still in contention. meanwhile coi extends his lead at the top and I'm now in second!

Yay top 5.
I’ll be posting my Family Fortunes questions at some point just finalising them now
Really enjoying these quizzes! Any chance we can keep them going after week ten - after all, we'll still be in semi-lockdown for a while yet. Or if not then can we at least run another set soon?
With coi choosing not to enter my quiz, how does that shake things up at the top now that the results have been revealed...
I’ll let Dan do the count!

Oooh next 2 weeks is going to be interesting - defo helped by coi not entering the last one!
coi still first even after not entering Wardy's (any idea where he is? he's not been online since Saturday)
Glad to be comfortably top 5 despite quite low placings in the last two
thinking the same, I'm sure he'd have been planning to enter
Chart mods do you know anything? Hope everything's okay
You have until 2pm tomorrow afternoon to enter my Family Fortunes quiz
When will Bre be posting his quiz?
Leaderboard after week 9
There's a new current leader who is... me, but again, chrissmith276 is likely to overtake again when host compensation points are calculated and added if he does well again in Week 10 (I'd do it now but I wanna keep some suspense and give myself a midweek chart topper )
remember to enter Bré's Week 10 quiz when it arrives which will be the final quiz of the season!

Exciting battle in the final week! Thanks for the update Dan.
I've been struggling to come up with decent Pointless questions so I'm making the last minute decision to make my quiz another Family Fortunes instead, hope that's ok with y'all xo (will be up soon)
Final Leaderboard
All the points have been counted including host compensation points, from taking the average each host got in all the other rounds. As Bré took part in his own quiz he does not get any, although with 22 points from Week 10 that's more than what would've been given as compensation if he sat it out. Which means it is congratulations to chrissmith276 who is officially the winner of Season 2 of BCFQ. He does so with 208.9 points which include 20.9 as host compensation. There is no widget for winning so your main prize will be getting your name in size 7 gold-ish coloured font.
Interestingly there are TWO runners-up, with both Jade and I getting 199 points, which means my own host compensation rules have lost me a second win. How Ellen DeGenerous of me. In that respect not much has changed since Season 1, where I was the winner and Jade was runner-up. Bré got the bronze medal last season but now settles for a still good showing of 18th. We get a final showing of 60 participants receiving points, in addition to UltraReputation who hosted but didn't partake in any other quiz alongside five other posters who partook in one quiz but missed the top 30 for their quiz.

Finally thanks all for following along and making it a 2nd successful season. Buzzflix will be renewing! For all of you craving more quizzes, I believe there are to be some Lounge Quizzes in the not too distant future so make sure to enter those whilst Chart Quizzes takes a break.
congrats Chris and thanks dan-G for the calculations
what is the last list? nice to be #1 on it but not sure if I understand, why is it different?
it’s the average score in terms of leaderboard points per round that you entered if that makes sense.
Joint 2nd the consistency of me finishing 2nd again!
Well done Chris and thanks for the stats Dan
I was not expecting to climb since the last quiz after performing so badly in Family Fortunes hooray for host compensation points I guess! I'm really happy with a Top 10 finish
Really enjoyed taking part in these and looking forward to whenever they're run again
Thanks Dan for the stats and running this series! I wasn't sure exactly how the host compensation points worked - oh that's close and unlucky for StoneDragon, still I'll take a top 10 finish however it comes! Congrats Chris!
Thanks everyone for taking part, it's been fun.
I will take 18th considering I think I only entered like 7 of the quizzes! (Also yay for getting more points from entering my quiz than from the host compensation thing lol x)
WD Chris
Woop woop very happy with the win!
Thanks Dan for the league table and to all other hosts throughout the season!
I'm so relieved to have held on to my top 10 position! Congrats Chris on winning!!!
Congrats Chris! I've added a widget for you (and for Dan as he won the first quiz leaderboard!)
oh yay, my 2nd row’s now finally complete, thanks!
Congrats Chris and thanks to all the hosts and Dan for the leaderboards
I mistakenly thought the host compensation points would be the average of everyone's scores from my own quiz, which would have given me a few more but hey, we're all winners really no actually just Chris is
I just wondered if the chart mods would approve another quiz season this autumn as no lounge quizzes appear to have happened all year and I do enjoy a good pointless and family fortunes quiz on here!
I second that suggestion!
