  • ! Not sure how I managed that, I didn't even understand two of the questions 😯
  • Here's the link to the daily brain-teaser.

    Delayed slightly due to question 10! Easy to tell which of the answers they expect you to give, but totally disagree with the parallel!
  • 🙄a ‘right to wrong’ cost me a clean bill again today.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I got the film questions right - thanks, Guessometer!

    and again! 🙄

    Second place, but that won't last once our US chums have woken up!
  • Yeah, lots of US entertainment.
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    Worst score EVER... and only one of my four mistakes was an accident...
  • The guessometer loves me. 3/3 today. Boy that was a tough one again.
  • I really should wait til I wake up properly before doing the quiz - clicked the wrong one by accident.
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    Better today! Bigger screen = shorter time!
  • Hymenoptera not my strong suit 😧
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    It would appear to be mine, even though until now I had no idea what it was ... :mrgreen:
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    Hmmm, on the other hand I know nothing about hairspray - I even thought quite carefully about the hairspray question before thoughtfully selecting the wrong answer...
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    I didn’t understand the last question today at all, but the guessometer saw me through.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Well, that was a Bit Odd. When I clicked on "play today's quiz", my Tablet had a brain-fart and decided I had no Internet connection. As I faffed about with it, I could feel the seconds ticking by and building up a score that would impress a cricketer, but not so: when I finally got back in, I managed 10/10 in 49 seconds.

    Isn't technology wonderful weird? :confused:
  • I love seeing my name/score/elapsed time so easy to find. At least I'm quick on that. And competition for that place is thin.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Got the film question wrong, as usual. :(
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer sorted that one for me.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    For once, I changed a wrong to a right, giving me 10/10, but still the bottom of the heap. Mind you, there are only two of us in the heap ... :mrgreen:
  • All hail Guessometer! 10/10 with guessometer help.
  • Totally blank on one question and none the wiser about the (correct) answer the Guessometer supplied 😧
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    An exciting contest this month! Who will triumph on Friday?

    10/10 on my first ever attempt! I was pretty sure about nine of them, but the (American?) pop culture one really stumped me, so that was just sheer luck.

    I also didn't realise that you're scored on how long it takes you to answer.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Well done for the clean sheet though, Snowflake! :)
  • Ah! Accidentally clicked the wrong one on an easy quiz!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer no help with long-ago American popular culture. :unamused:

    Me too!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Ooh - I snuck into the top ten! :)
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Bother. Changed a right to a wrong!

  • Congratulations @Jonah the Whale

    Woohoo! Thankyou!

  • PriscillaPriscilla Shipmate
    The guessometer worked overtime today!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I managed to remember the right wardrobe malfunction lady! :smiley:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    More than I did!
  • I'm going to try to imprint it in my brain for next time :sigh:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    A right to a wrong again🙄
  • Slooow because I could only think of the original with Donald Houston and Jean Simmons 😍
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer worked well for me today
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Fat finger clicked the wrong answer, and clicked submit before I realised what I’d done.
  • Thank you Guessometer!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    One wrong, one missed. Why do I keep missing out a question when I do the quiz on a large display?
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I did the quiz with a proper mouse for the first time in ages, and managed to click the wrong answer on a question where I knew what the right one was (the grammar one).

    Grrr! :rage:
  • Guessometer on great form today, as it had to guess 5 for me.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Annoyingly I clicked a link in my history that somehow landed me straight on today’s quiz page, and it took me a few seconds to realise what had happened before I started answering.
  • Twenty-eight??? 28 ?? Good grief. My tale of woe is that I could have risen to 13th place had I not changed ONE answer to a wrongie. Anna, you are spectacular :smiley:

    I did exactly the same thing a few days ago, and ended up with a time of over 100 seconds :angry:

    Absolute disaster today! 😭😭😭
