I never mind you asking @Cleoriff  as it help clarify things for everyone.

To explain, for each day and time:

Tonight [Tuesday}: at 10pm I will give the answers for ROUND 1 and also say which set of questions each of you must choose to give an answer from in ROUND 2.

From Tuesday at 11pm until Wednesday at 10pm, you can post your answer for ROUND 2.

 

Also tonight at 10pm, I will post the next, new, two sets of questions. This is to give you all time to consider which one question from which one set you will choose to answer in ROUND 3. But you cannot post your answer to ROUND 3 until after 11pm on Wednesday.

 

Hope that makes things a little easier.

I can understand it may be confusing at the moment.

Owing to the time difference, I am waiting for @Bambino to give his answer. Also @pgn has pm`d me to say he is dropping out. But the quiz will continue as Beatles` Six Quiz because there are six questions in each set.

 

To try and make it a little easier to understand how it is meant to work, I will explain each Round, when you can post, and when I give the answers.

ROUND 1: you had two sets of questions to choose from, and answered one question from one set; which means that there will be unanswered questions in each set. I will give the results for Round 1 at 10pm tonight.

Now to try and explain the bit which might be causing confusion.

At 10pm tonight, I will let each of you know from which set of questions you must choose a question to answer in Round 2 - that is one question from the set you did not choose to give an answer to in Round 1.

For example, if you chose Q3 in Early Years in Round 1 then you must choose one of the unanswered questions which are still left in Beginnings for Round 2.

You will then have from 11pm tonight until 10pm tomorrow [Wed] to give your answer for Round 2.

So yes, you do post an answer tonight after 11pm - for Round 2

 

Round 3 - as yet you do not know the questions in two sets from which to choose.

At 10pm tonight, I will post the next two sets of questions from which you can choose one question

from one set to answer for Round 3. This is so you have as long as possible to choose which set you want to answer a question from for Round 3.

You cannot post your answer for Round 3 until after 11pm on Wednesday - that is after results for Round 2 given at 10pm on Wednesday.

 

I am sorry that this has caused confusion but hope that things will be much clearer at 10pm tonight.

If you still have questions, or need anything clarified, please ask. It is your quiz and I want you to enjoy it.

Apologies again.

No that's all clear now @Mi-Amigo 

 

I think the confusion (for me anyway) is that we now have two quizzes running together.

I had got in the habit (with the previous quiz) of posting one answer at 12mn or thereafter.

 

Now we have one which we can post at 11pm and the Nature Quiz which we can post at 12mn or after.

 

I think I have it straight in my mind now....or I hope I have (said the Mad Hatter) cool

@Cleoriff 

I can see that two quizzes running might cause confusion (which was why I allowed @Glory1  her one minute early post yesterday).

I think that come 10pm tonight when the results are given and who can choose from what for Round 2, then everyone will settle into it, and will post on this Beatles Six Trivia Quiz after 11pm.

How it runs will get easier. Whether any of you find the questions easier, is another matter.
