"A good quiz setter will use various sources for what readers are likely to know and what is likely to flummox them. Researching national capitals, Olympic medal winners, longest rivers, and Cup final champions are just some of the categories for setting intriguing questions." So says Irish Examiner Quizmaster Noel Welch when we ask him how he sets his weekly quiz. A visit to the local library is a great source for research and reading various travel quides. Questions shouldn't require too much thought to answer, so the question itself should be just a simple sentence."
Some questions never go out of date, and are recyclable, like one of the twenty compiled for the very first edition of the Weekend Examiner.
