Accumulator total: 
€500
 

 

So, even though we've had winners recently, there's still a full pot to play for. And the Baby Accumulator is also growing with no winners in the last couple of weeks and is now at €191 already.

After a nine month wait we finally had winners on 9th February!! Where Is My Mind? and Evil Scotsmen shared €500, while Braindust missed by a single point.

From rags to riches...
 
The Accumulator is the other way to win something at the Quiz. The total could be anywhere between about €20 and €500, depending on how recently it was last won. It is a rare and celebrated event when a team wins - often the highlight of a quiz career, as so many times, a team will fall at the last hurdle.
 
The most recent wins were by Frankie Fitz's Psycho Kids in March 2009 (they got themselves €500) and, before them, Braindust and Green Monster, back in December 2008. These were actually separate wins on different nights, Braindust pocketing the full €500 and Green Monster taking €458. These have been the only wins of the 08/09 season, so you can see it's something a little special (and the money's not too shabby either). And now we've got another €500 to give away - who will it be next time?
 
Of course, the rounds are available in the old quiz section. Could it have been you?
 

 
 
 

The way of the Accumulator

 

- 25% of the next quiz pot will be added to the total above

- €500 is the maximum win for one evening

- if more than one team wins, the Accumlator is split between them (maximum €500 total)

 

- any use of mobile phones is strictly prohibited 

 

- if nothing is won, the Accumulator rolls over to the next week (and then the next and the next etc.)

 

- quizmaster rulings are final!
