Fine quizmastere fra alle samfundslag mødes på AhaSlides for at give folk et godt grin. Uanset hvem du er, kan du altid bringe glæde og sjov til dem omkring dig med en quiz.
Det er svært at benægte, at pubquiz oplever sin renæssance. Forbudt fra pubberne på grund af COVID-19 lærer folk at blive forelsket igen i pubquizzen gennem deres virtuelle form.
AhaSlides er glad for at være en del af denne trend. Drevet af vores software har folk fra hele verden samlet sig og kæmpet for at bevise deres overlegne hjernekraft.
Som sådan har vi brugt tid på at interviewe nogle af vores mest succesrige brugere. Vores virtuelle pubquiz-værter har gjort et godt stykke arbejde med at samle folk i denne isolationsperiode, og vi vil gerne anerkende dem for det.
Success Story #1: What Do the Plane Spotters Do When There are No Planes?
Flyvende live, a group of hobbyist plane spotters, struggled to find planes to spot during the lockdown. So, at the spur of the moment, they turn to hosting quizzes, and become really popular to their surprise.
“I can’t remember exactly where we got the idea from, but when we thought of hosting a quiz, we wanted to make it small scale, using ‘old school’ methods of score keeping. We were only going to have the capacity of about 20 teams before things got a bit too much, but luckily we stumbled upon Ahaslides, which actually made the whole process an incredibly easy and fun experience”, said Andy Brownbill, one of the plane spotters duo.
Mere kendt for deres fotografering og videoer af enorme flyvemaskiner har disse fyre taget til at være vært for online quizzer som en Boeing 787 Dreamliner tager til himlen: glat og hurtigt.
Den sidste trivia aften hosted by Airliners Live, on Friday May 16 2020, attracted around 90 of their followers. The response they received was truly outstanding and they’re planning on hosting many more.
But of course, their journey to host pub quizzes isn’t without obstacle.
“On first announcement, the quiz didn’t take off as we hoped, but when we started streaming it, people realized how easy it was to take part, and week by week we have seen an increase in viewers and participants.”
De har oplevet hjerteopvarmende historier om mennesker, der inviterer venner og familie, der gennemgår svære tider, og hvordan de bliver oplyst af det socialt og sjovt, mens de spiller sammen.
For alle, der ønsker at være pub-quiz-vært, har Airliners Live nogle råd til dig.
“For live streaming, we would advise using a simple, free software like OBS Studio, which lets you live stream easily to Facebook, YouTube, Twitch. We also recommend having the stream and a camera set-up, so people can see both the questions and yourself presenting them”, said Andy.
To kick-start your audience, make a community or utilize your group of friends. People love the connection of a quiz as it brings communities back to live and allows you to hang out and catch up with friends.
For small groups, with video calls or zoom groups, you can easily send everyone the link to play along, and they’ll see all the questions and answers on their device.
Last but not least, Airliners Live recommends engaging with people in the chat, commentating how well people are doing on certain questions, and giving them praise when they get answers right. That really makes people feel as part of the whole experience.

Succeshistorie nr. 2: Slår COVID-19 i ansigtet
Quiz mam Klot, or ‘Quiz with the Knock’, is a one-man-band quizmaster from Luxembourg. He has been hosting pub quizzes for over 10 years until COVID-19 restrictions shut his weekly quiz nights down.
Pretty mad at the situation, Klot decides to knock the virus in the face when he signs up to AhaSlides and carries on with his weekly quiz nights online.
“I already had a community that follows me as a quiz master for my offline quizzes,” Klot says. “I certainly had an advantage migrating them to an online platform. Being a huge fan of online communities I was certainly happy to see my already existing offline-community following me on a virtual platform.”
Klot live streamer hans quizzer via Facebook med brugere, der opretter forbindelse via deres mobiltelefoner eller computere. Over 300 mennesker sluttede sig til Quiz mam Klot's quiz baseret på 90'erne tv-show Friends.
Tapping into nostalgia for a simpler time when people could go to Central Perk for a coffee without a face mask and a flask of hand sanitizer, Klot has found a fruitful niche but it wasn’t always clear sailing.
“I think the biggest challenge was to find a virtual quiz host that fits my needs and enables me to present a quiz to my community that I can identify with.”
Klot’s search was complete when he found AhaSlides.
“After having tested several providers I finally found AhaSlides that allowed me to integrate my branding and style in to an easy to use editor. The AhaSlides-team was always open to suggestions from my part and quickly straightened out most of my technical problems after a rocky start. The overall feedback was great and I think I will still use AhaSlides when the pandemic is over.”
Tak, Klot. Vi har din ryg!

Succeshistorie nr. 3: Sagde nogen bare øl?
Samler ølelskere fra hele Storbritannien, besætningen kl BeerBods har navigeret i den virtuelle pubquizarena med en dybt præcision i modsætning til hvad du ville forvente af erfarne drikkere.
Their last pub quiz went down like an ice cold stubby on a hot day attracting over 3,500 participants from all around the world.
Dette er en enorm forbedring på deres første quiz, som stadig var en anstændig størrelse med lidt over 300 deltagere.
Disse ølelskere har mestret kunsten at ikke kun trække øl, men også trække antallet ind.
