Turn your own notes into a Glasgow pub quiz

Why write your own round instead of printing a generic one

Most ready-made lists online are built for nowhere in particular, so a Glasgow pub quiz works better when the questions come from material you already trust. If you were hoping for a printable sheet, DeckOwl can produce one, but it is generated from your own notes rather than a stock template.

  • Write questions from your own Glasgow notes instead of generic lists
  • Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions in one round
  • Read an explanation for every answer before the quiz night
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example Glasgow general knowledge trivia questions

Glasgow Cathedral is dedicated to which patron saint?St Mungo, also known as St Kentigern. He is the city's patron saint, and the name Glasgow is linked to his story.
Which title did Glasgow hold in 1990?European City of Culture. The year brought major investment in galleries, music and the city's public spaces.
What is often placed on the head of the Duke of Wellington statue in Royal Exchange Square?A traffic cone. It has been a long-running local tradition that the council keeps removing and the public keeps replacing.

Questions from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, slides, plain text or photos of pages. Each question is drawn from what you provided, so you control the topics.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions

Mix formats within one round. Every question comes with an explanation, which helps when a team disputes an answer.

Export when you need a sheet

Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export for printable rounds, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning platforms.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a Glasgow history page, a city facts handout or your own trivia notes. Text is read from images too.

Choose the question types

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

Review, edit and run the round

Check each question and its explanation, make any changes, then use the study mode or export a sheet.

Start with a short source, such as a page on the Clyde, the Necropolis or Glasgow's sporting history. Generate a mix of question types, then cut anything that is too obscure for your regulars. Explanations let the quizmaster settle disputes quickly.

Reuse the same notes across rounds by changing the question count or format. Free accounts can study in the browser, while Plus and Pro add exports for printing or for a classroom or community group.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Many hosts run rounds of about 10 to 15 questions so teams can finish a round in one sitting. Shorter rounds suit a quick warm-up, and longer ones work for a full evening.

How can I make Glasgow trivia answers stick for quiz night?

Review questions in short sessions spread over several days rather than cramming them the night before. Writing the answer from memory before checking it helps the facts stay put.

Is it free to generate pub quiz questions?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with no exports. Plus gives unlimited generations and PDF and DOCX export, and no credit card is needed to start.

Can I export the questions as a PDF or to Moodle?

PDF and DOCX export are part of the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on the Pro plan at $14.99/month.
