Thanks go to Rob Linham for being a great question master on Finals Evening and providing the questions, and to all of those members of OUQS who gave up time to help run this tournament, especially the president Ben Fletcher for being a great help in the few awkward situations that arose. Let's hope next year, the 20th anniversary of the ICQ, provides such a great competition, with the added incentive of a place in the finals of the British Student Quiz Championships.
