Sh!t!! Really tough questions man, what's the point in using them in a pub quiz? Questions like these just bring about anger and frustration!

Anger and frustration? No not at all in my experience. There's no real point to a quiz where the questions are so easy and every quiz team gets nearly full points - give them a challenge. Anyway, just use a few of the questions from us and pad them with easier questions if you believe they are all too difficult. Thanks for your feedback all the same.

Hey Manto, Lighten up! I have run quizzes for 5 years and easy ones just lose you punters! Remember Gilbert & Sullivan: "When everyone is somebody then no-one's anybody!" Translation: If everyone scores 100% why bother with a quiz!
