Photo Play Announces New Grand Prix Quiz
On 18 August 2003, a few days before the Grand Prix in Hungary, Photo Play Net's new Formula 1 highlight will be launched in the form of the "Grand Prix Quiz," and will include 700 new, topical questions designed to heat up players and pub visitors alike according to fun.net International's manager, Markus Gurlitt.
Four million players have registered in the Photo Play NET, and eagerly participate in the 52 MASTERS tournaments annually. "Once again we have thought out a special summer Photo Play NET highlight," Mr Gurlitt said. According to current research, the number of fervent Formula 1 viewers is steadily rising. The prime discipline of racing sport's activities is one of the current trend topics with a large, close and continuously growing fan community. In Germany alone, an average of 10 million people follow the game over the screen.
Last year the soccer quiz based on the World Soccer Cup was the cause of increased takings at the terminals. "We expect a similar success with the Grand Prix Quiz." To ensure that even frequent players won't get enough and have questions become familiar, a further 100 new questions will be added in each of two updates.
In the process, Formula 1 enthusiasts have the opportunity to look behind the scenes of the games specialist. Anyone who manages to score well in the MASTERS' rounds has already qualified him-/herself for the first great stretch. At the same time the player has obtained a bonus for his/her operating location. After the official qualifying, which will span over a period of four weeks, the "Grand Prix Quiz" will disappear from all terminals with the exception of those 100 locations in which players have achieved the highest scores. There the game will enter its finals.
"Of course this is a tremendous opportunity to include the location in a national competition. Here the proprietors' skills will be called for to turn this promotion into an individual event," said Mr Gurlitt "After all the national Master will be established amongst these 100 locations!"
The 10 best players of this racing-type final round will win an exclusive day as test players at the Photo Play distributor's head office, where the player can play to their heart's content and find out everything he/she ever wanted to know about Photo Play.
The Formula 1 promotion will take place in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, France, Portugal and Finland.
