Hi everyone - I have finished a new quiz packet, provocatively called The Last 1022 Years Were Boring Anyway.
This is a 20-tossup packet of pre-1000 AD history (not really time-subdistributed), and some questions touch on archaeology and religious history but are mostly of the “regular history distribution” type. Difficulty might be a little uneven, but most are Nats difficulty or above, and 9-10 lines long.
Question distribution is a bit slanted towards what I’m more comfortable writing about and is the following - I’ll likely stick to this if I write more packets.
3 Ancient Greece
3 Ancient Rome
3 Near East
3 Non-Classical Europe
2 Asia
2 Africa
2 Americas
2 extra (any)
I’d like to read this on the discord at some point in the next week or two if people are interested. Here are some possible dates and times - if there's interest from people who can't make this then I'd be happy to read it a second time if needed.
I'll set the time at 21:00 UTC (22:00 UK time, 17:00 ET) by default so it isn't too late here in the UK but can leave some room for flexibility. Poll should close on the 17th.
