The Format
Tap a round number to get the shape of each one.
Before You Tap
Ignore “A” and “The” — tap B for The Beatles, not T.
Sounds more complicated than it is — I’ll explain all the rules before each round starts.
Round 01
First-letter speed test
You'll have a keypad on your screen with letters A-Z. Charlie asks a question and you tap the first letter of the answer. Sounds simple. It is. Until it isn't.
Modifier
Charlie can turn on Evil Mode which means you lose 10 points for a wrong answer in most rounds. He doesn't do it often... But he can surprise teams. 😈
Modifier
Charlie can turn on Shuffle Mode which shuffles everyone's keypad so it's no longer A-Z. Monthly Shuffle Penalties: 1st = shuffled for the whole next month.
Leaderboard And Jackpot
Every Monday the scores stack. At the end of the month, the top team wins the monthly jackpot. In the meantime, the rollover wheel keeps growing until someone lucky enough lands it.
Monthly Podium
The month resets. The bragging rights do not.

How It Works
Monthly leaderboard
It's not just a one-night thing. Weekly scores build through the month, so the team that turns up every week has a proper edge over the team that had one lucky night.
Reset and reshuffle
The board resets on the first quiz of each month. Teams finishing 1st, 2nd and 3rd earn themselves Shuffle Mode penalties for the following month. So topping the board does come with a price. 😈
Your £1 entry
Your entry fee gets split between two prize pots: the Monthly Jackpot (awarded to that month's top team) and the Roll-Over Jackpot (which grows until someone wins it by spinning the wheel!)

Your Quizmaster
Depends who you ask... Charlie started DJ'ing at the age of 19, playing across the country at major UK festivals and venues.
He started doing the quiz at Whittletaps in 2019 — 3 teams on opening night. It now pulls 20+ teams a week.

If your family is 18+ then yes... No seriously. Legally speaking, our licence doesn't permit under 18s during entertainment. So leave the kids at home.
