Experience all the fun of the Virtual Discworld Fun Day - June 18, 2022 |
|
We've got a lot of fun activities planned for you for the Virtual Discworld Fun Day on June 18! Some details are below, but you can always find out more on our website.
 |
The Maskerade is a costume, costume accessory and prop competition - but it won't be much of a competition if nobody enters! You're allowed to send in photos taken at previous Discworld events1, so feel free to dig into your archives. Entries close June 4th, and you can enter by filling in this form. |

What could this newspaper clipping possibly mean? Find out in "A Surprising Escape" - a Discworld virtual escape room you can play with your friends. Book your session here. This is suitable for beginners, and the puzzles don't require any outside Discworld knowledge. If you are a little unsure of playing the Escape Room yourself, we will be doing a live session on June 18 which you can watch - but there will, of course, be spoilers! |

The Virtual Discworld Fun Day will feature two different book discussions:
It might be a good idea to re-read these books to make sure they're fresh in your mind. |
On June 18, we'll be holding a Pratchett/Discworld Quiz, to prove who really knows the most about the most minute details of Terry's works. Everyone will be able to play along using the Kahoot website.
However... if you'd like to get some practice in, we have set up a short practice quiz that you can play at any time! Head over to https://kahoot.it and enter the code 06046176.
We'll be using Zoom to run the Virtual Discworld Fun Day. You will need an internet connected device with reasonable bandwidth so you can watch video streams. We advise downloading the Zoom Meetings Client/App for your computer, tablet or phone in advance.
The link to join the Zoom call will be published on our website on June 17, and will also be emailed out via this newsletter and posted in the Facebook event. (Please also indicate on that event if you're planning to attend!)

Just released last week - the trailer for the upcoming film The Amazing Maurice. Watch the short social media trailer here and the full trailer here. What do you think of them? |
Hope to see you all at the Virtual Discworld Fun Day on June 18th - and we'll be in touch with more information soon.
