    Will just post this as our thinking space for the event.

    I believe we are going to potentially retire, or at least rethink, the Six Degrees event. It didn't quite turn out as expected last year!

    Otherwise I think we will probably be operating very similarly to last year.
     
    Six degrees will indeed be shelved for this year.

    The E&M quiz will be 14 daily events similar to last year, with a single point for each correct answer, as well as several possible achievements.

    The achievements planned are:

    Best Day Ever - FIRST team to score 100% in a round - 10 Points

    Chain Reaction - FIRST team to score 90%+ for 5 rounds in a row - 15 Points

    Glass half full - Score 100% in 7 rounds (doesn't need to be consecutive) - 25 Points

    Chillin'' in the 90's - Average 90%+ correct answers for the whole event - 30 Points

    Clean Sweep - Obtain 100% correct answers for the entire event - 50 Points (this ain't happening tbh!)

    The achievement points listed are placeholders so feel free to adjust as necessary. Our teams ended up on 153 and 89 points last year INCLUDING achievements, so scores were perhaps a tad low vs the 150/100 plus bonuses expected from a long event so I MIGHT add a question or two to a couple of rounds but I was pretty happy with the set up last time in all honesty,

    I will be hosting a different event each day during the GT - 14 daily events in all - spanning a range of subjects covered by the E&M section (Film, TV, Music, Books, Sport etc.)


    The rules are simple:

    ★ Every day I will post a new event in the second post of this thread. I will also bump the thread with a link to it.

    ★ Teams should confer and discuss the questions and possible answers before submitting.

    ★ It is supposed to be a fun way to bond with your teammates, so please NO GOOGLING the answers.

    ★ Teams will get points for every correct answer, plus bonus points for various achievements along the way:

    ● Best Day Ever - FIRST team to score 100% in a round
    - 10 Points

    ● Chain Reaction - FIRST team to score 90%+ for 5 rounds in a row
    - 15 Points

    ● Glass half full - Score 100% in 7 rounds (doesn't need to be consecutive)
    - 20 Points

    ● Chillin'' in the 90's - Average 90%+ correct answers for the whole event
    - 25 Points

    ● Clean Sweep - Obtain 100% correct answers for all 14 rounds
    - 50 Points


    ★ You will find the closing time in the daily post. Once your team has agreed on as many answers as possible for that day's event, one member of the team should submit them to me before the deadline either:

    On the forum via Private Message
    Or on Discord at hoshinoakari

    ★ I will accept each team's first set of answers only.

    ★ The most important rule of all: HAVE FUN!

    I think it was 1 point per correct answer and that's it. You'd have to ask Taylor though (or check last year's stuff) as she ran it last year.

    Probably fine if it works similarly again then.

    Yes simply 1 point per answer (plus the various achievements) 😊
