King William's Quiz!
It's that time of year, kids! Time for the King William's College Christmas Quiz, the most confounding and difficult test of general knowledge in the universe. Average score (without the aid of internet, encyclopedia, etc) is 2.

2.

It is, of course, impossible to get anything like any of them right without research, and students sit the quiz twice: once, unaided, at Christmas, and then after the New Year, once they've had time to research the answers. Even with research, it is unlikely a single person would get them all: the questions are written rather cryptically, although sets of ten can often be "unlocked" once one cracks the thing that links them...

So, start your engines. I've gotten around 15 or so already...

Jeff and I are now reasonably certain of 55 of the answers. How are you doing?
