Planning a London pub quiz on Thursdays

If you are running a London pub quiz on Thursdays, the hard part is usually the questions, not the venue. Most hosts end up writing rounds by hand from scraps of trivia books and memory, which takes hours each week.

Write rounds from your own notes instead of recycling the same trivia list.
Keep each question tied to one clear fact so teams are not arguing over wording.
Mix difficulty so newer players stay in the game alongside regulars.
Export finished rounds as PDF or DOCX on Plus, or as QTI or Moodle XML on Pro.
