Don`t worry. The usual White Room Thursday Quiz will be posted on Wed with answers by pm to me on Thursday.

 

This is an Advanced Notice of next week`s White Room Thursday Quiz.

 

As most of you know, each week eight categories are selected by me [Mi-Amigo], and one questions is chosen for each category.

I have often thought that, sometimes, those taking part in the quiz may have been pleased to see a question in their favourite category or have found a question much harder in a less preferred category.

So, in a "one-off" special, the members will have the chance of choosing the categories.

 

                                                                  How it will work

Below is a list of categories.

Each member can choose eight categories for next week`s quiz and pm me [ @Mi-Amigo ] their choice.

Please note: you can only vote once for each preferred category - so no eight votes for sport [for example].

 

The eight categories which receive the most votes will be used for next week`s quiz, from which I will select one question for each category.

                           So YOU CHOOSE THE CATEGORIES, I SELECT THE QUESTIONS.

 

Please pm me @Mi-Amigo your eight categories anytime between now and 23.59 [11.59pm] Friday.

I will total the votes and announce the categories next Monday.

The White Room Quiz - People`s Choice, with the eight questions will be posted next Wed 4 March, with answers pm`d to me on Thursday.

 

The categories from which you can choose your preferred eight:

 

History

People

Geography

Places

Structures

Biology

Physics

Chemistry

Nature

Space

Words

Literature

Classical Music

Rock/Pop Music

Art 

Films/Movies

TV

Sport/Olympics

Games

Events

Food & Drink

 

Please note: all votes will be in confidence. I will only announce the eight categories which received the most votes - not who voted for which.

 

If you have any questions about the quiz or voting please ask and I will reply on this thread.

Comments about the quiz and friendly banter is welcomed, but no post on which categories you have or will be voting for.

Have fun and I hope you enjoy the "one-off" chance of the White Room Thursday Quiz being

                                                            PEOPLE`S CHOICE

 

Thanks again

@Mi-Amigo

Nah, on 25th, I just checked back up this thread, @jonsie.

Probably just on oversight on @Mi-Amigo's post above. 😬

My apologies @pgn 

I did receive your pm with your eight categories. It was an oversight on my part not to have mentioned your name in the list of members who submitted thei choice.

Your choices were included in the votes for the categories, and taken into account in the results posted above - 

      Food and drink; TV; Sport, Biology, Nature, Rock/Pop Music, Geography, Films/Movies

 

I am sorry for any confusion caused by leaving out @pgn `s name - but his votes were included in the totals.

History was my favourite [along with maths] subject at school @jonsie 

but the shock is it wasn`t even the subject which just missed out on being one of the eight categories. 

 

@Cleoriff 

I share that view. As most people know, geography was my least favourite subject [I am so going to pay for this in the April Fool Quiz joy]
