In Rounds 1 & 8, the Question Reader must read out all three questions before requesting or accepting any answer from the captain or their nominated representative. The question reader must not then indicate whether any answer is correct or incorrect until an attempt to answer (or pass) all three questions has been made. The procedure is thus:
Question Reader: Asks parts A, B and C with only a short pause between each part.
Question Reader: After 30 seconds pause – “Answers please “
Captain 1: Answer A, Answer B, Answer C are given
Question Reader: Answers A is correct. Parts B & C are incorrect and go to Team 2 for
bonus points.
Captain 2: Answer B Answer C.
Question Reader: Answer C is correct for a bonus point. The answer to part B was …
This will avoid any advantage being gained by a team speculatively trying a single answer to check if they are on the right track before giving the rest of their answers.
Each part of the question is worth 1 point with 1 point per part as a bonus.
The individual question is asked. In the case of a wrong or no answer to the question, their opposite number in the other team will be asked for their answer and have 5 seconds to answer for a bonus.
If no correct bonus answer is then given, any member (including the original recipient) of the team answering first, may attempt an answer within 5 seconds for a bonus. If this answer is incorrect, any member of the opposition may attempt an answer within 5 seconds for a bonus.
Each question is worth 2 points with 1 point as a bonus
In Rounds 3 & 7, the question reader will read the same 8 questions to both teams. There will be a 10 second pause between each question and a 30 second pause after the last question. The teams will write down their answers and, after all the questions have been read out, exchange them for marking.
In Round 3 and 7 the teams will receive 2 points for each correct answer. There are NO bonus points.
In Round 4 the Question Reader must read out both questions before requesting or accepting any answer from the captain or their nominated representative. The question reader must not then indicate whether any answer is correct or incorrect until an attempt to answer (or pass) all three questions has been made. The procedure is thus:
Question Reader asks parts A & B, after 20 seconds pause, “Answers Please”
Captain 1: Answer A & B is given
Question Reader: Part A correct, Part B incorrect and goes to Team 2 for a bonus
Captain 2: Answer B is given
Question Reader: Answer B is correct for a bonus point or Answer B is incorrect and reads
correct answer
Each part of the question is worth 1 point with 1 point per part as a bonus.
In Rounds 5, the individual receiving the question will have 10 seconds to answer. In the case of a wrong or no answer, their opposite number in the other team will have 5 seconds to answer for a bonus.
In Round 5 only the team member who has chosen the same subject will have an opportunity to earn a bonus point. The question DOES NOT become open to the teams.
Each question is worth 2 points in the first instance with 1 point for any bonus.
In Round 6 the Question Reader must read out the question before requesting or accepting any answer from the captain or their nominated representative. The question reader must not then indicate whether any answer is correct or incorrect until an attempt to answer (or pass) both parts of the question has been made.
The answers do not have to be given in the order they appear on the quiz sheet so the Question Master must indicate which answer is correct according to the order they are given by Captain 1: The procedure is thus:
Question Reader asks question, after 20 seconds pause, “Answers Please”
Captain 1: Two answers are given
Question Reader: Answer A is correct Answer B is incorrect and goes to Team 2 for a bonus
Captain 2: Answer B is given
Question Reader: Answer B is correct for a bonus point or Answer B is incorrect and reads
correct answer
Each part of the question is worth 1 point with 1 point per part as a bonus.
