    OK I get it now. You're still rewarded for being in the top ten fastest though.

    Thanks Moog & Berko, I'll pass on your kind words.
    He had been ill for quite a while so it was somewhat expected, she seems to be coping well.

    didn't think i'd keep first place with that timing. bl**dy client rang in mid quiz and i had talk coherently to her while doing the quiz.

    I'm just annoyed that I got one wrong. I've lost 1st place in the overall standings thanks to some terrible scores this week, combined with Afanof waiting til end of day to submit her efforts, when she knows what to beat. Crafty cow.

    The films of Orson Welles - something i know very little about :rolleyes:

    General livestock. It is a brilliant quiz.

    Or just select a broad topic, such as history, music or film, then browse the list of available topics for a specific sub-topic (make sure you look at the sample questions as sometimes the quiz bears no relation to the title).

    Something British would be a nice change.

    Welsh language?

    I've picked something for next Thursday after doing a search for England. I've also decided we need a week of "mixed bag", IE random every day.

    Yes to the mixed bag i say! 10/10 today :D

    Aha! I've been doing that for a couple of months now and the reason is that I wait until another computer is free because the hamster in mine is old and it doesn't go very fast so I was getting right answers but losing out on time. Anyway, done the last two earlier as I'm in Derbyshire and borrowing a computer but I still beat ya!

    I've completely Keeganed it this month. I was home and dry but am on the verge of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

    I'd love it if I beat you though, love it.

    That's what i thought ???
     
  26. wfcmoog

    I'm absolutely livid with myself. In my haste to post a quick time I only part-read the Mark Twain question, saw an answer which began "Miss" and clicked it. When I saw a big red X next to it I realised I'd ticked Missouri instead of Mississippi. This could very well have cost me this month's title.

    Small consolation is that I look certain to beat Fan, Berks, Whipp and Moose.
     
  27. berkshirehorn

    berkshirehorn presumably I upset/disappointed someone

    Should be ample consolation for you :)

    Same ante for April?
     
  28. wfcmoog

    wfcmoog Tinpot

    Certainly Mr. Berks. Perhaps, buoyed by her current success, Ms. Of will be tempted into our wager (albeit at the possible expense of Master Fan, who is visiting one of the colonies).

    You seemed to be bothered by the prospect of being beaten so I messed up to save you the embarrassment.

    You're very kind.

    If no-one else gets 10 tonight, you'll win by 1.

    berkshirehorn presumably I upset/disappointed someone

    If not too premature, well done Moog and well done miss afanof, pretty damn exciting finish. :sign15::sign15:

    Only fair to share the title around i think.:)

    Another 275 orns leave my account :dismay:

    Thank you sir. I haven't received them though.

    I've farcically come bottom after the bloody people that host the quiz decided to do maintanence during my attempt and thus when i clicked submit i got the page telling me they were doing work on the site for half an hour, thus i come back to it now and it apparently took me over 5000 seconds to do the quiz :rolleyes:
     
  35. wfcmoog

    It's happened to me a couple of times. 10-1030am is site maintenance.
