My favourite pub quiz is now all done on a smartphone app.

You therefore can't use your phone to cheat, because you are on the app using it to reply to the questions. And you only get 10 seconds to answer anyway.

Well done OP.

I run the quiz at my local and have found that you get groups of youngsters in who think "great I will Google everything" but they are usually let down by:

i) The answers they think they know so don't google they get wrong.
ii) I do a mid quiz marking break so don't give much time to google everything.
iii) I will knock a few marks off to make sure they don't win if I catch them, as they know they cheated they never argue.


Very difficult to police as people are generally perma buried in their phones these days.

What I suspect is much harder to police is the clever teams sending one member to take a mid quiz poo and googling the one or two things that team don't know.

As part of my day job I have made mobile phone jammers and have considered bringing one with me to the quiz, but then I couldn't read PH between questions.

p.s. Quiz Ackabussi is a favourite of mine.

The quizes ive been too require you to hand in the answer form every round (a quiz being 8 10 question rounds), there is some time to think things over at the end of the round, but there is no big break where you can go back all the way

Anyway, at the pub i went the quiz was always won by one of two same teams, me and the housemates just went for the fun and seeing if we could score in the top half.

For many years we've been the Cunning Stunts, simple but effective, especially if the quizmaster is partaking of a dram or two whilst officiating

If the quiz announcer is using a microphone then we have used 'I wish this microphone was a penis' before.
That's the best I've heard so far.

Quizee Rascal was all the rage a few years ago.
