I hereby declare the fourteenth Exeweb Advent Calendar Quiz open.

There will be a clue a day from today until Christmas Eve. The clues will vary in difficulty and hence points. All answers will be related to our esteemed club, city or county. If the clue isn’t solved by midnight, the points will be reabsorbed into the quiz matrix.

The rules in brief*:

• No cheating.
• No moaning.
• No random guessing (show your workings, however brief).
• No verbal diarrhoea guessing.
• The Quizmistress’ decision is final even if I do something very stupid like use a clue that has already been used.

*A full set of rules can be obtained by writing to Exeweb Towers, Nr A Pond, Exewebville.

The Quizmistress may award Red Herrings if you guess obvious but incorrect answers. These are just for fun.



In addition, spot prize Roys may be awarded for answers the Quizmistress deems to be clever or even better than the actual answer. These will have no points value but will be used in the event of a tie-break situation.



Day 1 clue coming up ... good luck.

Sorry, for the EAC in general, yes they could.
