    Not sure how I got into fifth place with 8/10, but here we are.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Here is the Quiz
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    It’s no good trying for speed if you do t read the whole question!

    Occasionally my sojourn on the other side of the big pond pays off ...
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Very poor quiz setting to deliberately provide an answer that looks like the correct one! 🙄
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    It was all going so well ...
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Bugger - wrong god.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    messed up on the last question. Scoreboard pressure: and a lax approach as we approach month end.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    One good guess ('Murcan sport), one duff one ('Murcan telly).

    Mind you, no worse than everyone else, for now ...

    Snap

    (Annoyingly, I knew the TV answer - don't know why I went for something else: maybe subconsciously I want to fail)

    The ones I knew I didn’t know I got wrong. No help from the Guessometer.

    Husband asked me a question so I pressed the wrong one!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    @Heavenlyannie So whose husband did you press?
    ION I foolishly assumed the quiz setter meant what they said.

    I wondered that too, but was too polite to ask. :mrgreen:
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    😆
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Fecking 'Murcan telly again ... :rage:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Fillums again.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Thank you, Guessometer! :mrgreen:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    😡 it let me do the quiz, then announced the system maintenance trick when I submitted! 😡

    I didn't even make the top ten!! :joy:

    And to think my aim is to one day make it to the top ten 😂
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Oh dear, @McMaverick - what happened to you? Did the phone/doorbell ring, or did you go and make a cup of tea? :flushed:

    No - system maintenance as I submitted my answers!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Fictional creatures of whom I've never heard ... :rage:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    But...But...But, a beloved childhood classic, even this side of the pond!
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    No idea either.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Sunday, so I'm holding you all up with a magnificent 8.
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    A slightly perturbing description of 1938's TIME "Man of the Year" yesterday...
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    I dithered.
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Had to hit the submit button about 5 times to make it work :bawling:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Guessometer is broken.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    The question on the rude email provides a couple of feasible options. Quiz’s shouldn’t contain ‘correct’ answers that are a matter of opinion, as this one does sometimes.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Second place (for now) - clever Guessometer! <pat, pat>
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    I’m only at the top because @Anna_Baptist hasn’t played yet.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    @BroJames I wish that were the case: but there was one of two Sunday questions that I regularly get wrong being asked today
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Is it the same one I missed as well? (Clean and unclean animals.)

    Remedial Sunday school for both of us :grimace:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    No: it was the quotation

    And me too.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    If we ever needed a signal that the quiz is written in America…identifying guns and swords! 🙄
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Changed a right to a wrong 🤷🏻‍♀️🙄
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Not a great speed, but clever Guessometer!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Penalised for my lack of interest in the love lives of celebrities. No help from the Guessometer.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I only knew that one because it comes up every few months.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Might have had a better time if I hadn't had to get rid of a bloody advert! :rage:
  • TurquoiseTasticTurquoiseTastic Kerygmania Host
    It's another nail-biter this month!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Memo to self: more work needed on the films of a certain actress.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    I have too much going on in my head at the moment: that was a shocker.

    Now I'm going to have to rely on @la vie en rouge messing up to win this month

    Bluddy Sandra Bullock films! Why is this quiz setter fixated on her?!
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Err…the coffee question is wrong.
