New Ghostly Quiz coming soon

[Ghostly Vision]

Hello all

Thanks for taking part in my crop-fest recently.

There is a new quiz which is about to be compiled. I am really excited about it. It is going to be very different!

It involves no identification skills, just a bit of observation, lateral thinking and a little knowledge of the Western Palearctic list.

As before, you will need to pre-register to take part and it will be done by PM.

This time I am not going to offer prizes - it will be just for fun.

There is some time before it is ready, so please register your interest on this thread and I'll give pre-warning for the start.

All the Best

Squabble over handbags?

[Helenelizabeth2]

Squabble over handbags?

Nonsense, Laura and I would be sure to agree over handbags. Squabble over chocolate, maybe. I'm sure she was eating some this evening and she didn't pm me any. ;)

Anyway, this isn't the thread you were supposed to be being rude to me on, remember.

[Conorbirda2]

[JWN Andrewes]

I shall sit this one out (heading abroad soon for three weeks so I dare say I'll miss a chunk of it), but I look forward to seeing how it has been progressing when I get back.

Best of luck everyone.

James

[edenwatcher]

I'm in.

Rob

[lou salomon]

curious what it is about. count me in.

[Joe Ray]

I'll try again. Last time I completely forgot about the quiz and only guessed at about a quarter of the pics! Count me in.

[Xenospiza]

Yeah, my lateral thinking should be OK...

[CornishExile]

Am up for it too

Cheers Sean. Where do you find the time for this? ;)

ce

[bitterntwisted]

I'll have another go, Sean, despite the wheels coming off midway through the last one.

[Ghostly Vision]

A growing list of participants, but not many new faces.

This is not an identification challenge, it's a bird-based proper quiz. The title of it will give it away, so I will reveal that later.

It will also be quite easy - you'll need the pre-mentioned requisites, but also a bit of guess work, knowledge of famous people, geography, places and other stuff. With all that, you will get the answers.

As for time availability, it's what I do in the brief interludes betwwen work and family life. Doesn't take long periods of effort, just lots of small ones.

Been planning it mentally for the last few days and I've some corkers!

JWN - don't need to sit it out, as it is unlikely to be starting before you come back. Come on Down!!!

[Jurij Hanžel]

Well, I suppose you can count me in as well. I'm not too hot on British celebrities and geography but I'll do my best!

[The Analog Kid]

Count me!!Count me!!

[Ghostly Vision]

Did I say British Celebrities?

[Jules Sykes]

Yes please Sean,

and thanks for the last GV quiz, great fun as ever.

[Jurij Hanžel]

Did I say British Celebrities?Good, I just had to make sure in advance!
Which WP list are we going to follow? Or should we just wait for your pre-quiz briefing?

[dantheman]

I will be here too, all things being well (The girlfriend keeps threatening me with a computer ban).

Cheers

[JWN Andrewes]

Well then, if it don't start till the beginning of April I'll definatley have a crack at it!

James

[Stephen Dunstan]

[Gavin Haig]
