Review of Ru Paul\'s Drag Race Quiz Night!
The music was very good, and most rounds of questions were interesting. It would have been better if we knew the scores after each round, the answers and what our final score was like most quizzes. The cash prizes as advertised did not exist and it was unfair that the bonus round, which most people could not enter, was worth 20 points when the quiz was only out of about 60. I think it would have been better if one of the queens hosted each round as they spoke over each other and laughed at each other rather than interacting more with the audience. A good venue and nice c**ktails. Would like to go back if the quiz was better organised and fairer.

Review of Ru Paul\'s Drag Race Quiz Night!
Very disappointed. This quiz was a mess from start to finish.
The drag queen compares spoke over each other throughout and laughed at each other’s jokes - appropriate as no one else seemed to be laughing. We were not given a running tally of scores after each round, so there was no transparency with the scoring. We were also not given the answers to the previous round - normal practice in most quizzes. The most ludicrous part was a “bonus round” which could not have been more disorganised if it tried, and did not allow everyone a fair chance to take part, particularly not those sitting at the back of the room. This round was worth 20 points. The whole quiz was only worth 52! It made a mockery of the whole thing. If they wanted an audience participant lip synch then the prizes for that should have been separate from the quiz. And speaking of the prizes, they also weren’t as advertised, with no cash prize for second place. As a massive RuPaul fan I was sorely disappointed as were many others in the room. Such a shame, this has the potential to be so good with two compares that can host and know how to run a quiz.

Review of Ru Paul's Drag Race Quiz Night!
Really poor. The drag queens spoke over each other, laughed at each other’s jokes awkwardly and had a ridiculous finale. They offered 20 points, almost 1/3 of the entire total of the quiz, to one person who lipsynced when the vast majority of those participating in the quiz didn’t have a chance to take part in the bonus; totally undermining the previous rounds. Nobody knew after each round what the correct answers were or what the running total was so it made the entire thing feel unfair. At least say after each round who was in the lead? People were also using their phones to find answers. Yes it’s all fun, but when you pay to enter a quiz and the hosts make a big deal of the prizes, at least make the effort to make sure it’s fair. Also, prizes advertised were cash? The runners up received alcohol so the prizes were not as advertised.

Review of Ru Paul\'s Drag Race Quiz Night!
Loved it. The only thing I love of liked is more RuPaul songs been played in-between the quiz rounds and near the end after the quiz big chunk of RuPaul music and everyone up dancing. I think there was only 2 songs at the end. My fave part was the audience lipsync ( which I came 2nd in) overall a really good night.

Review of Ru Paul\'s Drag Race Quiz Night!
Quiz was disorganized, far too long between rounds.
Started at “7pm” but didn’t actually start until 8.15pm.
False advertising of cash prizes for runners up, there were no cash prizes.
Scavenger hunt and lip sync should have had separate prizes not been part of the pointing.
Disappointed.
