are you allowed to google an answer in a Quiz ????
doesnt that count as cheating
Mark is right. We had prepared the quiz and Andrew used google to settle the dispute. I walked around to ensure no cheating. The worse bit was I had to hijack some of the raffle prizes to be quiz prizes. Last year I had 6 teams show and was shocked to have 11 teams turn up. I ran out of tables, chairs and answer sheets but luckily the function room at the restaurant helped us out. |

(Andrew on as Rita)
When one of the teams asked Rita if she wanted a British or American billion I got a bit nervous and checked the online Cambridge Dictionary. (I know I'm a bit sad but it is one of the favorites on my phone. I do have quite a few favorites - and it does irritate me that we use "US English" to spell favorites.)
Anyhow, the dictionary confirmed my thought that the American billion is 1,000 million and the traditional Brit one is 1,000,000 million. So to have covered ourselves we should have said traditional British.
Thankfully it didn't affect the result. |

So do you think you will do things different next time or will you just not bother because you suddenly realised just how much pressure a can get if someone disagrees. If you do not bother just think how much the park will lose and the good will decisions, decisions, decisions. By the way you wouldn't get me organising anything like that. |

I will bother because they all enjoy it and compared to what you have to achieve this is peanuts. I was self sufficient this year on the PC preparing my quiz but missed Andrew's help. We raised £300 for the wildlife centre and that's what matters. |
