This will begin today, open to all (myself included)
Meantime, there's still loads of questions from through the year unsolved, so if you see one, myself and Chris have the answers to hand.

Welcome to the Chritmas quiz 2011. It's not the most Christmasy theme we've had, but it is a little different to the usual quiz. The task is the same - identify the station, but the pictures you'll get are different and some at least will require some lateral thinking. The answers are all stations that appear on the December 2011 tube map available on the TfL website; there are also some bonus answers for other locations. There are 21 questions in all that will be presented 3 a day for the next 7 days, with answers to those you've got on Boxing day (along with answers to the ones you haven't got by then if you ask for them). Answers to any unsolved ones will be posted on New Year's Eve (if there are any by then). December 18 - Day 1 Station 1 (click for larger versions) Station 2 (click for larger versions) Station 3 (click for larger versions) Don't post your answers in this threadTo make things enjoyable for as many people as possible, don't post your answers in this thread, post them in the separate Christmas quiz answers thread

' there are also some bonus answers for other locations.'
Are we supposed to be finding the locations of the second pictures of the pairs or they just illustrative? Or are you going to tell us when there is a bonus?

If there is a location that is identifiable it's a bonus. Today bonuses are available for the second images in all the pairs, you can have a go at the other images too but I don't expect anyone to be able to get them!
For the easiest way to reference them, I think of the images as 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, etc.

Station 19 (click for larger versions) Station 20 (click for larger versions) Station 21 (Picture credit: 21: fish: Richard Hertwig, via Wikimedia Commons) Don't post your answers in this threadTo make things enjoyable for as many people as possible, don't post your answers in this thread, post them in the separate Christmas quiz answers thread. That's it for this year's Christmas quiz, I hope you've enjoyed it. I'll let you know what you've got correct and what you haven't on Boxing Day. If you want the answers to the ones you didn't get on Boxing Day too, then say so in the answers thread - otherwise I'll post them on New Years Eve. There are another 20 possible questions that could have been part of this quiz but which I wasn't able to illustrate in time. Do you want me to continue working on these for a future quiz? As bonuses through the year? As a quiz for a meet? A couple will potentially take some time to organise so it will be a few months at least before I could present all 20. I don't intend to work on them before January at the earliest (I need the time to work on the regular quiz). The regular quiz will return on 1 January and will be 5 years old one month after that. If you have any ideas for how to mark the anniversary then send me a PM. There are still hundreds of unsolved questions from the regular quiz, so during the break (or at any other time) have a go at some of these - SE13 and I have all the answers easy to hand. If there are any over about a month old that you want to know the answer to, just post in the thread [1] and if nobody else hazards another guess then SE13 or I will post the answer after about 24 hours. [1] A posting in an old quiz thread that is relevant to that question (including guessing or asking for the answer, or asking about the picture) is not regarded as breaching the forum rules about bumping threads, so don't worry about that! If the thread has been locked, just ask any staff member to unlock it for you.
