            Luckily Bunk and SM are clever sorts so I can just waggle my bits at the girls to make them laugh and put them off.

              i learned a lesson. the questions are slightly easier this time, with a few more popular themes.

                  No googling. The answers on the questionmeisters sheet are final, even if they are wrong.
                  Bear in mind it is a browser quiz, the questionmeister can only submit every thirty seconds.
                  Starter questions must be answered within one minute, bonus questions within 30 seconds.
                  The first answer from the team is the only one that is valid, answers from the audience will be ignored. For bonus questions, the first three answers will be accepted, even if they are from a single team member
                  If your team do not get the starter, please do not answer the bonus questions.
                  There will be a prompt at the end of each bonus round with the subject of the next starter, with a minutes grace to allow some team strategy.
                  The CUK Olympic Year University Challenge III will start at 19:00 CUK time, and there will be a new thread at five minutes to called University Challenge III
                  Please sign in before 19:00 so your captain knows you are around

                    yes but remember you wont be able to resend quick enough, and we have to make it quick to prevent googling.

                    if you want , i could only accept answers from the captains - that would give the others a chance to brain-dump, and then you could filter them

                      Yep - the 'starter for 10' was fingers on buzzers, no conferring.
                      But the bonus questions were conferrable, with the final decision by Cap'n Zippy.

                      That's how Bamber did it anyway.
