    American bubble gum brands 🤷🏻‍♀️🙄
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Quiz time!
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Pffff Americana.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I've just re-read yesterday's scoreboard, and I was actually second (and faster than Anna B!).

    Not so great today though - got them all right, but faffed about too much and had a rubbish time.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Second - that'll do nicely.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Ooh - faster than a speeding organist! (you'd dropped to 4th when I played, and now you're 5th ...) :mrgreen:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Such unattractive crowing, it only puts us on level pegging 😈
  • SmudgieSmudgie Shipmate
    Ooooh, I'm level pegging for top of the leaderboard, suffering only from attacking the quiz later in the day than signaller. Proof, if proof were needed, that the mouse is mightier than the touchpad.

    You'll push me back out of the top 10 today though ...
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Mea maxima brainfart ... :blush:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bluddy froze when I came to submit again! Really slow time - should have been half that! 😡
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Wow! Sunday and not only a full house but a decent time - miracles do happen 🤣😂
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate

    It must be catching - I did the same today. :rage:
  • Tree BeeTree Bee Shipmate
    Hanging on by the skin of my teeth!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    @Tree Bee Shhh - you've still got a bit of a cushion 🤞
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Congratulations @Tree Bee on breaking my winning streak.

    To quote Arnie, "I'll be back"
  • Tree BeeTree Bee Shipmate
    Golly gosh, did I win? It was a very close thing though, I thought @la vie en rouge would get it.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bizarre toothbrush question & too much niche American stuff today.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    For the moment, I'm in third place with 8/10* and a time of 72 seconds. Something not right there ...

    * having changed two right guesses to wrong ones. :rage:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate

    Well, that's a rubbish start to the month.
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    I’m fine with the tooth brush question, it was the other random ones that threw me.

    Actually it was in April 2021 that I last didn't come top. I just filled up all the available slots in the Hall of Fame, which only goes back to October 2021.

    Woo hoo! Not gloating (gloating)
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Ahem, good people, a little charity here, eh? Some of us count it a victory if we get into the top 5 😈
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    Congratulations @Tree Bee. Not a great start to the month, as I totally forgot to play yesterday.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Fourth place - for now - that'll do! :)
  • Tree BeeTree Bee Shipmate
    Grrr US history.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Of course it won't last but top of the tree for the moment 😲
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'm just not fast enough ... :cry:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    @Piglet That used to be considered a good thing in a girl ... 😈
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I was faster than you today - just! :mrgreen:
  • The_RivThe_Riv Shipmate
    Well, there's a crazy thing -- 2nd!
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    I won one! I won one!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    @Heavenlyannie Congratulations 🍾👏🍾
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I hate it when I change a right to a wrong. :rage:
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Booooo foiled by the fat fingers.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Just when I thought I'd got my mojo back... that happens.

    The question I always get wrong comes up! And I changed the right answer for a wrong answer! Which slowed me down!

    ARRRGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    I wonder if it’s the same one that I hesitated over, and then got wrong.
    I get Matthew and Paul mixed up.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bluddy advert! I tried to make up the lost time & read a question too fast, so got the answer wrong 🤦
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Changed a right to a wrong three times. Memo to self - stop thinking. 😡
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Anna B - me too, re: question I get wrong. But I took much longer than you did to get it wrong ... :blush:

    Precisely. Two metaphors saying the same thing about their referent.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Hmm. I’ll quibble with that — one is about unexpectedness and the other about unmissableness or unmistakableness*.

    (*Sorry for the not-words)
  • SmudgieSmudgie Shipmate
    Bother
    Knew the right answer to that stupid question, just hit the wrong spot with my mouse.
    What an irritating quiz today.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Well, that was pants 😡
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Would have been quicker, if not for the ‘server error’.
  • The_RivThe_Riv Shipmate
    So, I'm a music teacher who missed the Eric Clapton question... :blush:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I shouldn't worry, @The_Riv - my late Beloved was a music teacher and I doubt very much if he would have got it either.

    I did though* - thank you, Guessometer! :mrgreen:

    * I'd narrowed it down to two (possibly the only Clapton songs I know), and picked the right one.
