TRVMP Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I'm making 16-answer quizzes for each letter of the alphabet* and uploading one each weekday until I'm finished. You can find them here: https://www.sporcle.com/playlists/nach0king/a-z-of-football Right now we're up to L. I'd be interested in any feedback. I'm trying to make it so that: i) a casual football fan can get at least a few answers right ii) someone who isn't into football (as some Sporcle users are) can get one or two iii) even obscure answers can sometimes be achieved via some lateral thinking, or process of elimination iv) while the quizzes give some bias towards the Premier League - since they're in English, this makes sense - you'll be served better with some European and indeed global football knowledge v) despite all the above, you need to be a serious football fanatic to get 16/16 *I may combine X and Y. Q and Z are no problem - I've already started drafting them and will easily manage them - but X is likely to be a bridge too far. So... it might be 25 quizzes instead of 26.
