Announcing the Gamesblog's Pre-Develop Pub Quiz and quiz question competition!

The gamesblog is proud to present the first Have I Got Games News For You on Monday 28 July, just in time for Develop, the biggest games conference in the UK. Come one, come all and prove yourselves against top teams from the UK games industry!

We have room for four more teams of six people each to take on the hot shots from Black Rock Interactive, Linden Lab, NCSoft, Zoe Mode, GamesIndustry.biz, Eurogamer, Pocket Gamer and Future Publishing. Places are bound to go fast, so sign up here - and sign up now! Check out the details:



Have I Got Games News For You (Monday 28 July, 8pm, Caroline of Brunswick)

An evening of topical trivia and booze, hosted by Aleks Krotoski and Keith Stuart from The Guardian's gamesblog.

This warm-up event will pit the gaming wits of studio teams across the Brighton spectrum and will get you in the right mindset for the next few Develop-fuelled days. Form your own team of up to six players to take on contenders from Black Rock, NCSoft, Linden Lab, Zoe Mode, Gamesindustry.biz and Eurogamer. There are limited places so arrive early!

Games-themed, but not exclusively. Expect plasticine and other surprises.

Oh how the mighty will reign. Honour and prizes for the winners.



Alternatively, if you can't make it to the shiny beachside resort for the festivities, you can help us write the questions - for prizes! We need suggestions for the two General Knowledge Rounds - one round about game characters and in-game events, and one round about the personalities behind the games. The top questions we receive will be included in the quiz, and the four people who contributed them will be rewarded with a copy each of the Guinness Book of Worlds Records (Gamers Edition).

Send your question submissions to gamesblog +at+ gmail +dot+ com. The competition ends Friday 25th July, so get internet-trawling and send 'em in.

If you can join us, we'll be very happy to see you.
