Day 7 -36

[Bunners]

39 - My love of something else was a massive help on this one.

I hear ya

but only 37 for me

[X-Man]

42 - but I would like to know what time period it's based on? The last few guessed were from the general memory banks and are not from the same era as th majority...

Day 7 - 41. Missed 3 fairly easy ones and got all the weird "that's never an answer" ones

[Digsby]

Due to the late posting of Day 7, I am going to keep both Day 7 & 8 open until tomorrow morning, therefore in your posts please specify your score for either day 7 or 8.

[Digsby]

Day 2 My Score = 33. The subject: Band Aid artists. Until i started it I didn't even know they'd made a 2014 version so, no surprises, most of my correct answers were from the original line up. Knulpuk was top dog today with a massive 55.

Day 3 My Score = 51. The subject: Biscuits. 50 most & least popular. Not sure who was asked but seriously, dark chocolate digestive top biscuit - do me a favour! Moist von Lipwig clearly eats too many biscuits and top scored, while a poor score from leeloo allowed sportsmeister to climb to top spot. Any one of the top 6 could be in the lead tomorrow.

Day 4 My Score = 24. The subject: Star Wars characters. I thought 24 was going to be hard to beat and so it proved. Only leeloo & Maldini proved more geeky than me and were the only 2 to score bonus points. As a result leeloo goes 6 points clear at the top. 4 are tied for 2nd place, with another 2 only 1 point further back.

Day 5 My Score = 15. The subject: Boxing weights. The problem was that this was the wba classification which was not specified in the subject title. There was one on the website that did specify but you had to type in the word 'weight' on every one which I thought was a pain in the arse. Anyway, I knew the fiso pedants wouldn't mind.

Day 6 My Score = 16. The subject: Currencies replaced by the euro. Lots of standard 'lira', 'mark' guesses etc gave you a few easy points but it was all about trying to get the more obscure eastern block ones. Turns out nathan247 could name 1 more than anyone else.

Day 7 My Score = 27

Day 8 My Best Score = 99. Today is a little different. You have a maximum of 3 attempts to get your highest score. Be warned - it's really effing annoying!!!

[leeloo]

Day 8 - 92

[jpk]

90- can't see properly now

[flyingkillercob]

Day 8- 148. Some of those answers were a bit tricky

[DrBunker]

Day 8: 92 (on take three of three). Not even enough for a point.

[tommymooney]

day8 = 76 (71, 67)

Not my thing!

[X-Man]

Day 8 - 82 - Hated every minute of it...

[Alchemist]

Day 8 = 119

My wrist hasn't ached this much since I met the wife.

[Digsby]

Hated every minute of it...

My work here is complete

[Knulpuk]

Had 1 go - need a lie down

[Mo Bot]

Day 8 only had one shot. Can't face it again

[DrBunker]

That's nuts...

[Knulpuk]

I've gone mental 77

[Moist von Lipwig]

Day 7 - 39


Day 8 sounds like a corker.

[murf]

Day 8 - 115 first go

(thought that was a bit rubbish but seems I'm doing OK)

2 more goes. Just not yet...

EDIT - Second go = 135 Third go - 136

A couple of seconds more and I'd have been getting the easiest ones

[morganb]

98 out of 210 answers correct

[Ashers]

Beat this if you can:

One minute spare.

Had to do a print screen as no-one would have believed me without it.

[Ashers]

Second screen with evidence

[Arabian Knight]

Day 8 98

Tough!

[Mystery]

Timed out 135 with my first go. The mobile site seems to have trouble displaying this one. So may try again in a bit

[Mystery]

186 second time. Confident I'll get there later.

[tommymooney]

Seriously don't know how you can get those kind of scores! Very impressed. Will be interested to hear about your technique tomorrow...

[bluenosey]

Day 7 - 32

Day 8 -



(75 )

Can't even see your number 1!!!

[Spinynorman]

Day 8: 148.

Loved it.

I hate it when I have to think or rely on any sort of knowledge or intelligence.
