    Not an attemot to dimish, just what seemed like an unlikely anagram 😳

    Maybe I was a bit too arch - loved the anagram!
    If ever there were to be a name amnesty like in the old days...

    Sin of envy?
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Mmm ..... possibly 😳
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Big sigh
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    I misunderstood the legacy question.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I nearly did, and then changed my mind.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Did the quiz, pressed "Submit", got the message Sorry you have already played the Quiz today - but nothing showing up on the table. What is going on? 🤯
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Feckin' algebra! :rage:

    It was very oddly formatted, so I wasted some time wondering whether the formatting meant something other than the obvious. It didn’t!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Indeed. And I wasn't helped by getting my x and y mixed up. :confused:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    I froze on the algebra question - which is why my time is my slowest this year.

    And I'm good at maths. I have 5 GCEs in the subject (2 at O level, 2 at A Level and 1 at S level).

    I agree with BroJames: there was something very off putting about the notation.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Stuff that for a lark - I got 10 - including one I usually get wrong - and still bottom of the heap! :cry:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Not any more - Uncle Sid to the rescue 😳
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Thank you! 🙃
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    ******* 'murcan cartoons! :rage:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Too American/American actors for me today.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Top of the pile with 8 in a slooow time? Bizarre 😧
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Slow, but some help from the Guessometer!

    Quite! I got lucky with one (slightly educated) guess, but I'd never heard of the TV show.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    $#&**!$ tablet screenshifts at will 👹
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    ******* 'murcan TV again (should have remembered it from before)
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Was that the surname question?

    I remembered that American show from UK TV of my childhood. A sci Fi version of a C19 shipwreck novel by J D Wyss
  • The_RivThe_Riv Shipmate
    Weird how sometimes the first few questions will go by so quickly -- it's *bang, bang, bang* with the answers, and then all of the sudden the mental brakes get thrown, and I'm either creeping through it, or having to re-read it, and we all know that if you have to re-read even a portion of a question, you're going to pay for it.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Slooow - distracted by spelling howler in one Q 😳😳
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'm fairly sure that I did click on the right answer to the question that they said I hadn't answered. :rage:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    And today we get a question on a 1970s American game show?! 🙄

    Top of the pile for now but rubbish time.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I got lucky with the game show - thank you Guessometer! :)
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer was working today for the Americana, but slowly.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    You must have tired it out - it didn't work for me! :rage:
  • The RogueThe Rogue Shipmate
    Somehow I was quicker than Anna today. Will bask in the glow for a bit then be brought back to earth tomorrow, no doubt.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    As so often, ******* films are my downfall! :rage:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer good on popular music, not on American television.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Slow. That question setter who intentionally makes the questions unclear was on duty today, I think.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    🤦 American currency…didn’t have my brain on.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Thank you, Guessometer! <pat, pat>
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Well that was my worst performance this month... I think I'll have an early night to try and recharge my batteries.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    No harm to you, Anna B, but the rest of us love it when you have a day like that ... :naughty:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Happy enough with that - it's only because I'm regularly good that my occasional pratfalls are enjoyable. Just wasn't sharp enough today to justify my speed
