  For Rookies and Beginners<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

  • Reading the material helps a lot with this question type since the answers don’t have to be word perfect.<\/li>
  • Since interrogatives to do not require references, this is a good question type for quizzers who struggle with remembering references, although quizzers who know references can answer these just as well.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    For veteran quizzers (1-3 years or so)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    • Quizzers should take extra care to watch the quizmaster’s mouth. The forming is a \u201cw\u201d shape indicates that the interrogative word is likely beginning the question and will not give the quizzer much help to figure out the answer.<\/li>
    • The shape of the quizmaster’s mouth and the inflection of their voice can give big clues to the next word\/syllable that is coming. At fast jumping speeds that little bit of extra information can be the difference.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      • Don’t jump on w’s! There will be those lucky people who jump on a W, get 1 syllable and guess the right answer, but the probability of doing that is very low, and more often than not, quizzers error on W jumps.<\/li>
      • Learn the unique words. Most interrogative questions will have a unique word in them.<\/li>
      • Pay attention to which interrogative (who, what, when, etc) is used in the question, because this will help you identify what information you need to give for the answer.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        • The requirement that the question must contain a completed unique-word or unique-phrase within the first 5 words can be problematic as the requirement regards words and not syllables. Words vary in length. Some questions are unique early (2-3 syllables) while others may not be unique until much later.<\/li><\/ul>\n\r\n
