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!
