And here are the questions from the preliminary round:

September 2012 monthly -- a triple Sunday

I've been contemplating the issue of people's timings vis-a-vis our quizzes. Some people find it easier to come early, but have to leave by a certain time; some people prefer to come in a little late, but don't mind staying on into the dark night; some hardcore folks (like me) are okay with starting at the crack of dawn and quizzing till they drop. After contemplating various options, I have decided to make the SEQC September monthly a triple Sunday. We'll have three quizzes running sequentially, and people are welcome to attend any combination of these -- from just one to all three. Teams will be built around a few core people, the seeds, and can wax and wane as the afternoon proceeds into evening. Members will come and members will go, but the only constant will be that members will not be swapped between teams from one quiz to another.
