Yorkie Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Thanks to everyone as always for joining in and apologies for the slightly choppier nature of that one. We got there in the end. There'll be well over £50 in the jackpot next time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Sorry for the spam, I realise at this point that this thread is basically my own little quizzing office at the moment, but: It seems a bit unfair that the Runners-Up should get their stake back but the Finalists, should they not find a Pointless answer, get nothing. So what I'm suggesting is, going forward: should the Finalists win, they get their jackpot and the Runners-Up get their stake back. But if the Finalists lose, nobody gets anything. As it happens, tonight, benevolently, our Runners-Up (Gorilla and Eran), were happy to put their 'winnings' back into the pot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finalists get half the pot and if they don't get a pointless it the other half rolls over? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Cheers, Disco. I think half the pot is a bit generous though, particularly if there's a couple of rollovers like now; plus rolling over bigger and bigger amounts is quite exciting. If there's 12 playing again next time the total pot is going to be nearly £70. Runners-up: stake back 'Losing' finalists: stake back 'Winning' finalists: jackpot ? Agree Yorkie. Also as said to you, I'm considering making one quiz as well to help you out. I love doing the quizzes so it's certainly no hardship, but yes please, by all means do one, Marko. If you do February's we can return to Pointless in March. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Aye sounds good too. Winners w/o pointless should get stake back at least. Saying that, if we're doing a normal quiz next time might be worth reducing some of the pot so 1 (£10) ,2 (£5), 3 (stake) and a bonus round (£?) have a pay out.

Yorkie Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Fine with me, but if Marko is doing the next one - in the form of a 'normal', individual one, rather than Pointless which is obviously team-based - we should let Marko decide whether or not there's a pot. But I will point out that: part of the thinking behind Pointless is that, because we've got two or three very strong players... Pointless opens it up to give everyone a pretty even chance of taking something away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I've done a thing. Completely new/original; not Pointless or like anything else we've done before. (And nee moneys involved). Totes understand if there's not much interest at this point seeing as people can do actual activities these days, but thought I'd throw it out there cos it's nice to see folks if nowt else. Would anyone interested one early night next maybe? Mon/Tues/Weds? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Yep, I'm in. Any day other than Monday. Weds probably best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
