OTHER COMPETITIONS
International Culture Challenge ends this week and our tier 1 finalists will battle it out this weekend to see who will triumph. The finalists are Scott Blish, Mark Grant, Daoud Jackson and Evan Lynch and we'll be livestreaming the final on our Twitch page from 8:30pm BST on Sunday.
Pop Culture Challenge is back for season 6 and commences on September 4th. This is our competition which uses the very popular Mimir format which focuses solely on the pop culture side of quiz so the questions are on subjects such as TV, Film, Pop Music, Sport, Celebrities, Food and Drink and much much more without ever needing to know who wrote an opera or what's the capital of somewhere. Registration is currently open at https://quizcentral.net/qc/Pop_Culture_Challenge_-_Register and entry is just £30 and you get a £5 discount if this is your first ever OQL individual competition.
This is a UK-Centric competition but we welcome competitors from all around the world and with over 300 players participating in Season 5 we expect this to be the world's biggest online Mimir tournament.
Connections Online Quiz League is currently open for registration for Season 6 and will commence on August 29th. This is our very popular league based on the hit BBC show Only Connect and you can register either as a full team or as an individual to be placed on a scratch team. Full details and how to register are available at https://quizcentral.net/qc/Connections_Online_Quiz_League and the deadline to register is August 22nd for a full team or August 18th for an individual.
OQL Individual competition. Our third individual event takes place at venues across the UK and Ireland on 23rd September. We are just finalising some venues and we will open registration very soon so please watch our website and the Facebook groups for further information.
Thank you once again for being a part of OQL and we hope you enjoy the summer break.
Best wishes
OQL
