in addition to general gratitude for the conference organization, I'd like to thank you all who organized this quiz show and the party itself as well. It made a fun ... including the experience missing the last tram! I was really amazed my flesh and blood had preserved still the elements of 80's prodigal Tokyo girl, thrived by the old Gdanska skyline in the dawn.

Please post the questions and answers separately, so that people who weren't at the conference can try their hand at the questions. (Some of us who couldn't attend this year are practicing for next year!)

And if you think the questions/answers suck, well, I think you know what to do.... edit this trivia night.
Maybe next time we'll even find a space that we don't get kicked out of before finishing!
thanks for playing, phoebe
I heard a rumor that there would be a beach in Haifa...

There would also be a 24-hour lounge right at the venue which I think should be very good for things like late-night trivia....

A lilo on the beach, presumably.
just for the record... the answer to the board question seems to be incorrect :) It should be 19... (but I guess that this file was prepared before the announcements :) )

Indeed it is. We discovered that while grading but neglected to update the answers. Funny knowing that the questions and answers were written by Phoebe and mostly on the day of (i.e. the day after she was elected).
The file has been updated.

I also made corrections on the talk page of the file, so you can check there :) there are (were) two incorrect answers -- the board (which we prepared before I was seated :) ) and the Polish top contrib's name is off. Also there was some argument about how to phrase the various questions which I tried to clarify.
And, credit where credit's due... the questions came from: Angela Beesley Jeromy-Yu Chan Rand Montoya Liam Wyatt Me
Peter Gehres did the lions's share of the work of formatting, making q&a sheets, advertising the night, etc.
Thanks to SJ for reading the questions for me; I was too hoarse to do it (and too busy arguing with our polish proprietor). And the whole idea was originally Liam's, with contributions from Pharos, yours truly, and others :)
As I said, edit this trivia... phoebe
