Quiz Update
The NYC quiz resumed on Wednesday (24 January) with a continuation of a great turnout for the season, bolstered by the participation of a new team Rex (the Quizmaster could not spell Tyranosawrus Tirannasaurus ⊠any other part of the name!).
End of season form continued as the top two at the Christmas quiz occupied the same positions again, with reigning champions Wizard taking the spoils ahead of in-form challengers The Salopettes. T.B.M. were third with The Corner Boys in fourth.
Enchantress maintain their overall lead despite a slip-up but can safely jettison that result when discards come into play.
We welcome back all teams on 7 February next for the next installment, which will commence at (letâs hear it) 8pm sharp!
