No. I got the leaflet through after I qualified and it looked like a 1970's mental institution; a largely older clientele assembled in manicured gardens with implausible dress sense and no facial expressions. Ill-informed judgements aside, though, I never really felt the urge to participate in an IQ swap-shop, and as radar says, waste time attempting to communicate with people who have limited social skills.
Now if they replaced intelligence tests with drinking games I would be much more inclined to show up (who needs brain cells anyway).
