Guidelines...

8. All answers must be in a question form starting with "What is/are...?" or "Who is/are....?" as the case may be; otherwise, answers are considered wrong.

9. At the end of the three rounds, the teams gain points according to their final rank based on total accumulated scores.

Rank 1 - 40/40 Rank 2 - 35/40 Rank 3 - 30/40 Rank 4 - 25/40

Guidelines continued

6. A starter question is asked to determine the first player for the game. The first player then chooses the category and the question’s corresponding points and earns the same points when the team has given the correct answer.

7. In the event of a wrong answer, the team gets a deduction of 1,2, or 3 points for the Chicken Feed, Nose Bleed, and Internal Hemorrhage rounds respectively.

THE ELIZABETHAN JEOPARDY (QUIZ BOWL ON THE ELIZABETHAN PERIOD)

Happy Sunday, everyone! Ready for the big showdown of brains tomorrow? Here are the guidelines and your group assignments. Good luck!

MECHANICS

1. The quiz bowl shall be divided into three categories – the Chicken Feed, Nose Bleed, and Internal Hemorrhage.

2. Each question in each category is allotted with points in the following distribution:

Chicken Feed 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Nose Bleed 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11

Internal Hemorrhage 5,6,7,8,9,10,11, 12,13

3. There shall be 4 teams to compete in the quiz bowl.

4. Each team is to send one player at a time to answer a question. A player simply raises his/her hand to be acknowledged and to answer the question.

5. Only 5 seconds will be allotted to a player to answer the question; otherwise, other players may steal the question.
