	Games - Quiz league

A quiz league is an organisation running quizzes on a home and away basis, usually in pubs. Like the pub quiz, it is chiefly a British phenomenon.

Format

Two teams, one Home, one Away play each other, responding, perhaps alternately, often orally, to a questionmaster.

Many varying formats exist, one of the most widely played having been devised as a game used by soldiers when relaxing is usually known as the Merseyside Quiz Leagues (MQL) format. It consists of 64 questions in 8 rounds of 8 questions each asked to individuals on the teams alternately. Correctly answering your own question scores 2 points though it can be passed within the team (if the player choses not to answer) or over to the other team (if the player or team answer wrongly) for one point.

Other formats exist that involve more conferring within teams, list rounds and pick a category rounds. The MQL format is played by the main leagues in London and Merseyside.
