20000 Down

There are two reasons why it's been a couple of months since I've written anything here.
1 And very much the main reason is that i've been holed up in my quiz bunker writing and preparing 20000 questions for quiz machines which is, you know, a lot of questions. I mean, 100 questions is a lot of questions....20000, i don't know how we did it. I'd say it's about the equivalent of a 5/6/7oo page book, and that has to be 20000 discrete faultlessly factual, faultlessly laid out entinties.
I'm quite impressed with myself, frankly. I've also gone more than a little mental.
2 I was pondering, blogwise, whether to get a bit more general - there's only so many crazy corporate quiz stories one can tell, i suppose. Should i use this as a platform for political rants which no one will read or flights of whimsy which no one will read or encomiums to Ryan Giggs which no one will read? The choices are endless.
And yet, I feel i should keep this within its remit as the diary of a quizmaster, so you won't hear be getting my views on this exciting mayoral election and quite how half of London has persuaded itself it would be a hilarious jape to vote for a r...... f .....ph......l...us....c..-f...T....w..., but, no, i'll keep those thoughts to myself, and stick to the quizzes. But first, I need to sleep. for a few years.

I could stand to read some more general rants. And I still want a free question with every post.
Now go back to bed.
