dubdobdeeRUBRIC: welcome to the LJ wing of a quiz** sat by by some lucky schoolkids*** somewhere and etc blah blah: viz 18 themed sets of 10 questions each -- a new one every day (more or less). Don't put googled answers up till after the next question appears -- to let others show off their BRANES -- and note where they are googled (or borrowed off of rival sites with good answers). OFF WE GO!
1: During 1914:
i: for whom was Potiorek’s invitation disastrous?
ii: where did Harry make it six, a record still standing?
iii: in whose composition were they called in from the glen?
iv: which composition brought some colour to the state of Missouri?
v: who was brutally attacked as she lay naked in her boudoir eight years after her move from the north-east?
vi: who (fortuitously) evaded Sydney and led his men from Tikus on an epic journey which would last 195 days?
vii: where did the commander and officers of the Third Cavalry Brigade threaten “mutiny”?
viii: what, despite her name, lost her way off the Berwickshire coast?
ix: who deprived a leading French newspaper of its editor?
x: how did monkey hangers gain an unenviable first?
*= latin for: "real actual knowledge is knowin how to google**** stuff"
**as published every year in the guardian just before xmas (answers some time in the new year)
***all the boys of king williams school on the isle of man sit it sight unseen then take the paper home during holidays and look stuff up to increase their score and retake it
****the setters used to claim they've checked nothing is INSTANTLY googleable, tho this claim seems quite porous...
