Master Freshmen Pubquiz

On Tuesday, the 27^th of October, at 7:15 pm a great Master Freshmen event will take place – a pub quiz on Discord.

What is a pub quiz?

A pub quiz is a certain type of quiz which is played in teams. The teams compete against each other in 12 rounds. There are picture rounds, where you have to answer questions about pictures, music rounds, where you have to guess the title and the interpreter on the basis of short song excerpts, and question rounds, where you have to prove your active knowledge in a variety of areas.

What are the rules?

Each team consist of a maximum of 7 people (if that doesn't work out, please let us know). You receive points for correct answers but don’t lose points if your answers are wrong. The quiz is played over two halves. Each half lasts between one and one and a half hours. If you don’t want to play the entire quiz, you can quit after one half. In the end, the team with the most points wins. The quiz is held in English. Everything else is explained at the beginning.

What is Discord?

Discord is an online service that can be used for chatting and voice conferences, among other things. The app can be downloaded free of charge but can also be used via a browser. However, it is recommended that you download it. There are usually fewer problems afterwards.

What do I have to do if I want to participate?

You are expected to have a Discord account and join the Master Freshmen pub quiz Discord server.

You don't have a team yet? No problem at all. I'm sure many people are in the same situation. Please just be online on Tuesday already at 6:50 pm. Then new teams will be formed, or you will be assigned to a team.

What else is important?

Please join the server as early as possible. This makes it much easier to prepare the server before the quiz starts and to avoid delays in the process.

Please be online on Tuesday not only from 7:15 pm, but a little earlier, so that we may solve problems and don't get behind schedule.

If you have any questions or remarks, please feel free to contact us: pubquiz@fsmath.uni-bonn.de

 

We are looking forward to a great evening together.
