TOP TIP - the answer is always "A" for all questions*











* Not true

ready for the current month!

But--- a miserable start into the new game!

[Malrom]

I normally have the German translations questions wrong and can't find an error on my part afterwards....

[murf]

10/10

Second place 'only' on 7.

Two of you on a paltry 2.

We all get the same questions, right?

according the the site the questions were very difficult!!

[Oxford NZ]

Got two questions marked as wrong today but I knew both answers, one was missed with with no answer even though I thought I selected it and the other way not the answer I put in. First time in ages I knew all ten answers.

[Malrom]

The very first time and probably the only time I had 10 correct answers in a row.

Unc on steroids this month

Unc on steroids this month

I ( unfortunately) have to take steroids every day but not the same effect it would seem

I beat him yesterday. Closed the gap to just 19 points. Still time.....

Always stay positive!!

But first you have to overtake me!


Which shouldn't be too difficult!

[unc.si.]

Funny game. Sometimes have streaks where it all goes well and other times get a run where all the guesses go the wrong way.
Just on a lucky streak lasting longer than normal, and when I’ve dropped points then other results have gone my way and I’ve not lost much ground.

Apparently I took 50078 seconds today. I did ponder question 8 but didn't think I'd taken that long.

[Malrom]

I got today's answer in the Animal Question wrong, because the animal is another one in German and this animal was also available....... strange...

[murf]

Top scored again today. Yesterday my alleged time dropped me to last (despite outscoring everyone) but today my time dropped me to 3rd genuinely as it was a tie.

Malrom still 4th and would still be there on time tie-break if he had got the right animal.

Yesterday I took just over 100 seconds and only got 1 right (of 10 non-educated guesses in a crap quiz!) so it scored me 0.

Fultonhagen also only got 1 right, taking much longer than me but also scored 0. Was, annoyingly, ranked ahead of me on the tie break for getting 0 points first, and so showing as getting 1 more point than me in the monthly comp.

Today, the 'top scores yesterday' omits both of us and the rest of you all get less points as it scores it as if only 6 played.

This game hates me.

Sorry

Just came from the game and wanted to ask you why that's the case. Now I know.
Sorry for you, murf!

Sounds like the game was just sparing your blushes

Maybe - but it wound me up by promising me points last night then just stealing them away this morning, airbrushing me (and my incompetence) from history.

[unc.si.]

Oh I see, you would have got monthly points, even though you got 0 game points.

Yesterday was one of those pure guess rounds wasnt it? Seem to think the more likely sounding answers were wrong as well, making it harder to fluke a decent score. Think would have been more embarrassing to get 10 than 1

The only half sensible question was about football - and that involved knowing who was involved in a meaningless 3rd play off at a World Cup 30 or so years ago (made amusing by the comment by the setter afterwards that is was a memorable world cup because the only UK team there was Ireland ).

Translating lyrics to unknown 60s album tracks isn't my thing.

[Malrom]

flying to the USA soon and won't play the games during that time, surely not regulary. September 23 to October 9

Goes for this game and all the Wordle related stuff too!

I'll have other fish to fry!

[unc.si.]

I would have missed the quiz today for the first time in a long while if I’d not seen this thread pop up again, so thanks for the inadvertent reminder Malrom

Going anywhere nice?

[murf]

He has already said USA, so, no

Back to Boston and to Maine and Vermont to enjoy Indian Summer!

Pleasure! That's what I do with FISO GOALS

Holiday is reasonably well timed over the international break!

Boston.... I had more than a feeling you'd say that.....
