aww sorry Em.

Ok so Rosamund and I have been talking about the Quiz getting a bit stale, and old. These things go in fits and starts. We've been going pretty faithfully for 9 months since Leddie kicked it off again in April 2006, which is pretty impressive.

That's a LOT of questions!! (lol and answers) Who would have thought there was soooo much useless information out there.

So what say you devotees of quizdom?

Give it a rest for a couple of months? Make it "weekly" for a while? Just make it 'easier', so more people 'want' to have ago?

Any ideas?
