🚨 FOR A BAG OF CHIPS UPDATE🚨
Our infamous For A Bag of Chips is back, but with a little update.
This season, FABOC is happening during round one, adding a bit more of a challenge to getting your first round in first. Our quiz veterans will know that the timing of handing in your first round is key if there is a tie for second place (scores your team a fun prize) or second to last place (gets your team a round of shots.)
We announce the FABOC challenge at the beginning of round one. These prompts will usually be tasks like drawing something or writing a poem or joke etc that we will judge 100% subjectively. Some weeks we may give out a printout for a speed-based challenge.
In between writing your answers, you can use the back of your round one answer sheet to complete the For A Bag of Chips prompt. Once you're done with the round and the prompt, simply hand in your first round sheet as usual.
The team with our favorite drawing/poem/whatever will win, as you might have guessed, a bag of chips! And these bags are full size, no snack size bags here, so there's plenty to share with your whole team.
