  • Is the site working for you? It isn't for me.
  • No. It won't load.
  • Or for me
  • I'm in now. I think the whole site must have been down for a bit.

    It was working by the time I got to it, and so was the Guessometer. :mrgreen:

    D’oh as Homer Simpson would say. I managed to miss out a question today.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    It's easily done.

    Chuffing American television. :rage:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Me too!
  • The one I thought would be wrong wasn’t, but one I thought was right wasn’t!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Same here, Priscilla! :(

    The Guessometer was absolutely rocking today - second place!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    The live life of film stars, who acted in what film roles and US sporting history. Too much for the guessometer which started playing opposites and then blew up. :frowning:

    Today's "average" was rather difficult, but... my apologies *grin*
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Well done little Guessometer!

    You can't kill it that easily, Bro James!

    Second place again!

    He who hesitates slightly is in a 3-way tie. Dammit.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Got the chuffing actress wrong again. :rage:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    The Guessometer was on much better form today - I even got an actress I've never heard of right.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Me too, and I was unusually fast for me as well.

    The Guessometer ends the year on a high 😀
  • Tripped up by a "celebrity" I've never heard of 🤔
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    My times were rubbish last year as were a lot of my answers. I'm attempting to do better this year.
  • American talk show hosts aren’t on my radar. 🤷‍♀️

  • Yay! It's been nearly two years since I last won.
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    Slow, but my guessometer has obviously been recalibrated this year.
  • I think I only understood 50% of the questions today - very US centric 😡
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    One question conveyed almost no meaning to me, and the Guessometer didn’t help, but it was up to speed with another.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Brought down by 'Murcan television again ... :rage:
  • 🤷‍♀️ US TV & adverts. Not a hope!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Top of the heap - for a minute or two ... :mrgreen:
  • Woe, woe and thrice woe! That actress tripped me up again - bad Guessometer.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I got the actress right, but I was tripped up by the actor in the previous question. :(
  • I won’t stay in second place long with a time like that 😂
  • Sorry!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I would dispute the answer to question 3 on Saturday (although I guessed it correctly); I won't say any more until everyone's had a chance to do the quiz.

    Was that the one about the category in the quiz? If so, I thought that was an odd one. I guessed right, but thought it strange.

    I’m still in 6th position this late in the day, and after I had to stop to let my cat in, mid quiz! 😂

    Yes - that was the one. Very Americentric, imho.
  • And another Anerican brand that never made it across the Atlantic 😡
  • Only heard of one of those products they’re suggesting to use on a baby’s bum, and I certainly wouldn’t use the one I know 😂 I think we have different product names in the U.K.

    Yes. As is the baby’s bottom question today!

    As a childless non-American, I think I'm being unfairly disadvantaged. To whom may I complain? ;)

    Previously being an admin on a cloth nappy forum didn't help me! But the guessometer did her work.
  • Guessometer came good for the 3 out of 4 that meant nothing to me.
  • Good grief! Slooow and still a decent score.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'm snapping at your heels, The Organist! :mrgreen:
