Writing a general knowledge round for Wednesday night

Most hosts running a Bristol Wednesday pub quiz build their rounds by hand, copying facts from books and websites into a document the night before. DeckOwl can shorten that work when your source material is already on your laptop.

Turn a set of notes or slides into a round of multiple-choice or true/false questions.
Check every question against its explanation before the night, rather than during the quiz.
Mix question types across the round to keep teams guessing.
Use the browser version on the free plan to rehearse, then export when you need a printable copy.

How it works

Add your source

Upload the document, slides or notes you want to draw quiz questions from, or paste the text directly.

Choose the question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, and decide how many you want for the round.

Review and print

Read through the questions and explanations, edit anything that doesn't suit your crowd, then take the round to the pub.

Good trivia rounds need one clear answer per question and a mix of difficulty so the room stays involved. Upload a fact sheet, a slide deck or your own list of topics, and the generator produces questions you can check against the source before anyone sees them.

The explanations are useful after the round, when teams dispute an answer. They show where the fact came from, which keeps the scoring simple and the atmosphere friendly.
