There will be no teams for the quiz, everybody will be playing individually. There will be prizes for the winners (more information below). The quiz will consist of 6 rounds. Some of the rounds have 5 questions, others have 10. Scoring - If you answer a question correctly, you will receive 1 point. - If you were the first person to answer the question correctly, you will receive 2 points. - All points will be added up at the end of the quiz and will be posted around 15-20 minutes after the quiz has finished. Prizes - Everybody who takes part will receive 100 tokens. - The winner of the quiz will receive an additional 600 tokens. - The runner-up will receive an additional 200 tokens. We will start the quiz in a few minutes. Please post when you are ready to start

Right then, on with the Video Round. Here is a video which lasts around 4 minutes. Please watch/listen to it and take note of as much of it as possible. In about 5 minutes, I will ask you 5 questions about the video. You may refer back to the video at any time during the questions.
