April 15, 20214 yr Why is it only on for 10 weeks? Will there be more quizzes coming up? I'm kicking myself for not knowing about this until only last week :(
April 16, 20214 yr A season usually runs for 12 weeks but we were struggling for hosts this time so we cut it to 10 weeks. I expect there'll be another season later in the year!
April 18, 20214 yr It is usually 10 weeks actually! Awardinary planned on expanding it but there just isn't enough hosting volunteers. I think it should take a long rest after this season anyhow, Quarter 4 is probably the best time for S5.
April 18, 20214 yr More reason, if you haven't already, to make sure to enter the final quiz of the series (Family Fortunes) before the deadline of 21:00 tonight!
April 19, 20214 yr Final Leaderboard 1. Mango (258 points) 2. Bjork (223 points) 3. JulianT (217 points) 4. jimwatts (210 points) 5. chrissmith276 (208 points) 6. coi (180 points) 7. LewisGT (169 points) 8. Riser (165 points) 9. paulgilb (156 points) 10. dan :: G (155 points) 11. Ansel (153 points) 12. awardinary (150 points) 13. Jade (149 points) 14. dandy (148 points) 15. PeteFromLeeds (147 points) 16. StoneDragon (142 points) 17. n4yr (124 points) 18. CJK (116 points) 19. xajnipi (115 points) 20. Bré (100 points) 21. vibe (88 points) 21. Chez Wombat (88 points) 23. Dobbo (86 points) 24. rio309 (80 points) 25. Mack. (73 points) 26. King Rollo (71 points) 27. West (62 points) 28. garyfeld (55 points) 29. Nina West (47 points) 29. CianS (47 points) (FYI I rounded all host compensation points to the nearest whole number to avoid decimal scores, although it wouldn't have made any differences in position either way). I'm absolutely stoked to have won my first quiz season :wub: commiserations to Bjork and well played to everyone who took part, it's been fun! Looking forward to defending my title in Q4 :)
April 19, 20214 yr Author Well done Mango, I’m really pleased for you, and a special thanks to all your hard work behind the scenes and helping me massively with the responsibilities of making this quiz season happen. All credit goes to you, and of course to Dan & Pete for allowing this season to go ahead earlier than they might have anticipated! :)
April 19, 20214 yr I enjoyed this quiz series, really pleased with 6th place overall as well! Huge congratulations to Mango on that deserved win as well, enjoy the widget when it arrives, and thanks to everyone who hosted!
April 19, 20214 yr Thanks everyone - it’s the first season I’ve played and it’s been an absolute blast! It’s been frustrating, rewarding, challenging and educational and overall really made my lockdown much more enjoyable. And thanks for giving me the chance to host one as well. Many congratulations Mangø - I note that even if Jim hadn’t generously forfeited his host points you’d have won anyway! He would have come 2nd though, so thanks for letting me onto the podium Jim! ;)
April 19, 20214 yr Congrats to Mango for taking over my series title - very well deserved! Well done also to Bjork, who scored the most points in other people's quizzes, and to Julian for also finishing in the medal positions! Thanks to Wardy and Mango for running the series, and to all the other hosts, plus everyone for taking part!
April 20, 20214 yr Congrats Mango and thanks to all the various hosts who put time into making this Quiz Season happen!
April 21, 20214 yr Congrats Mango and thanks to all the organisers! I had a bit of a fall from grace this year :lol: Season 1: 2nd Season 2: 2nd Season 3: 6th Season 4: 13th :kink: here's to getting back in the top 10 next time x
September 21, 20213 yr Author I know nothing has been officially discussed yet, but I just thought I’d take the opportunity to do a quick survey if there was any interest for another quiz season, and, also if you would be prepared to host one quiz as last time round we struggled for hosts. It is of course at the chart moderators discretion, but I didn’t see the harm in asking the question first to see what interest there is.
September 21, 20213 yr They’re a nice distraction so I’m always happy to see them run if people want to host ^_^
September 21, 20213 yr I’d be happy for these to resume (as I did mention at the time Q4 would be best to bring in Season 5) - would you like to host the sign up and leaderboard thread again awardinary/Mango?
September 21, 20213 yr I've got a lot on at the moment but I'm happy to host at least one week if there's enough interest.
September 21, 20213 yr Author I’d be happy for these to resume (as I did mention at the time Q4 would be best to bring in Season 5) - would you like to host the sign up and leaderboard thread again awardinary/Mango? I’m happy to be involved again but I found having some assistance helped. I know Mango has a lot on, perhaps Pete would be willing to be a co-host this season if he’s agreeable?
September 21, 20213 yr I’d be happy for these to resume, I enjoyed having a go at the last few quizzes when I first joined BuzzJack.
September 25, 20213 yr Hey, I'm happy to host. I've got a quiz all lined up if u wanted to start it soon, just DM me!
