...How has it been a week since our First Ultimate Geek Quiz already? 😱
Congratulations to the team "Four Aces & A Joker" who came in 1st place with 53/70 & walked away with a slew of Dragonbane goodies fromFree League Publishing.
We ran our 1st quiz night.
Loads of fun, energy, and a room full of people connecting.
One response really stood out,
“They were prepared, understanding of and provided support for non-mobility disabilities.”
That matters.
Because inclusivity shouldn’t be exceptional.
It should be the standard.

Today's the day!

Prizes up for grabs include donations from Free League Publishing, Jangling Space and more.

A still from the 1960 film "The Time Machine", based on the 1895 novel by H.G. Wells. The Time Traveler (nameless in the book but called George in the film) is a Victorian British gentleman, dressed formally in black jacket/blue & grey waistcoat. He is sitting in his laboratory on his time machine, which has a steampunk aesthetic and vaguely resembles a sled with a huge copper satellite dish on the back.
Time is almost getting away from you - our quiz takes place in just two days' time!
There's still a small number of tickets left if you'd like to come to Merchant's Guild and take part - events.humanitix.com/the-ultimate... (George)
And of course you can still book tickets to our First Ultimate Geek Quiz where that piece - along with some other prizes of a more traditionally nerdy nature - are up for grabs in our quiz and raffle.

A piece of stained glass art sitting on top of some paperback books, in front of a regular clear window looking out onto a winter Glasgow street. The stained glass is of a vaguely highland croft like scene, with a white house with black roof that is surrounded by green hills, blue river and brown mountains. All the sections are framed off with thick black borders
Thanks to Jangling Space, who have donated something very unique as a prize for our event - some stained glass for your nerd room wall!
Jangling Space are a collective based in Shawlands which runs classes to help teach people how to make their own stained glass pieces.
We'll be posting about the prizes over the next couple of days.
There's still some tickets left for the event on Humanitix.

Psyduck from Pokemon: a yellow duck, vaguely anthropomorphic, holding its head in it's hands as though suffering from a migraine.
Is picking a team name for The First Ultimate Geek Quiz giving you a headache like Psyduck? Or do you already know what your team is going to be called?
