There are a few members on here...like Sarumite and Crofter who set quizzes. I am sure they will help when they see your posting. There are web sites available to help also.
Sarumite is usually on first thing in the morning...he will probably see this then and be able to help....good luck!!
Hi Curvylady ... I also set quizzes on a fairly regular basis and agree that it is important that the difficulty level of questions varies, to ensure that the weaker teams are not disillusioned whilst also providing a reasonable test for the more able quizzers.
There is no hard and fast rule, but I would normally aim to set approx 25% easy, 50% middle of road and 25% more testing questions.
You may also wish to break the quiz into sub sections with perhaps 5 questions on specific categories.
There are of course many sources from which questions can be sifted, one of which is the following site .. good luck

Take care (S).

Thanks for the help.
and if possible after you've plucked your quiz from the net..check any questions you're not sure of, somewhere else to verify the answers
last week we had 350miles given as the answer to "how long is the M25?"...well maybe if you go round twice or add all the lanes but!!!!
