-
What happens if I answer a question incorrectly?
You will have a time penalty before being allowed to submit a different answer.
-
What happens if I make a spelling mistake or miss out a word such as 'The'
Unfortunately, the quiz is controlled by a computer programme and so only answers that coincide with those on the system are recognised as correct. Whilst capitalisation of the letters does not matter spelling does and the precise wording does. Eg. if the answer is The Silence of the Lambs then Silence of the Lambs may not be recognised as the correct response.
-
Will the quiz automatically start at 8pm on my computer?
No, because of our operating system and to prevent a crash at precisely 8pm you have to manually refresh to start the quiz.
-
Can I research using other sources such as the internet?
Of course but remember this takes valuable time!
-
What happens if my computer crashes or internet goes down?
I'm afraid Sunday @ 8 cannot be held liable for such gliches. The competition and prize structure would become unworkable if we gave refunds for such unforeseen events. We do everything we can to prevent problems at 'our' end. However if a problem occurs with our system such that the quiz won't or cannot be cannot be played then of course refunds will be arranged.
