brains of fiso daily quiz

[unc.si.]

I don’t think the History section ever contains any questions on history.
Unless you define history as everything that has happened or existed before this moment.
I’m not even sure one of the answers was right today. Had to read it about 5 times.

So, good score, slow time
Monthly win on the line,
Get one second ahead of me
And the April winner you shall be

Obviously only if you’re Spadger. Does he ever post on here by the way?

His last contribution in the forum was on March 21, 2021 and that was in the London marathon thread.
But he plays the quiz, that's the most important thing!

He is a fast runner (as FISOers go!), contributing to a lot of our faster virtual marathons, and IIRC was building up to a marathon in May

Ahh. I don't really frequent the running sites. Whilst I used to compete for W&BAC, albeit a long, long time ago, anything more than 400m was a no-go (actually even 400m was a bit of a stretch )

I can tell from your avatar you need to cheat with mechanical assistance

[unc.si.]

To be honest I've not even been on the bike that much lately. Need to get back on it now the weathers picking up. The avatar pic is at the velodrome in Manchester. My track cycling days are definitely behind me though. Last time on the track was in Derby with Dean Downing and Tim Kennaugh probably about 5 or 6 years ago with JLT. Thought I was doing OK until they decided to start racing properly

Looks like we’ve definitely lost jpk. Anyone seen him anywhere else on FISO?

I've sent him a message on March 10, he never read it

...and back.

Ready for May?

back with a bang!

[unc.si.]

well today definitely one of those days when it all goes wrong. I mean I only knew 2 of them but due to a missed click still only managed to get 1/10

like they say, some days you're the hammer, some days the nail.

definitely a nail today

[murf]

I've been a nail(/statue) all month so far.....

7 7 7 7

murf, don't let us down!

[murf]

I actually did get 7 but it claimed I didn't put in an answer for one....

I'm sorry for you, murf, but that happens from time to time!

[unc.si.]

I got a blank click yesterday which dropped me down from 8 to 7, and today I saw that I’d clicked the wrong answer just as I was hitting submit which dropped me from a 9 to an 8.

Sometimes trying to go fast pays off, sometimes not...

not my problem, I'm always slow...


I got the first 8 questions right.....

[murf]

I got the first 8 right as well. Maybe we do get the same questions in the same order.


Speed not important today as all 3 of us on 8 get the same points.

no, I got one less, only 4 points for me!

Forza Malrom!

Forza Malrom!

Grazie caro amico unc.si.

[Malrom]

What was wrong yesterday? Only Spadger and I played!

[murf]

I keep forgetting - last time there was 5 of you so I lost a lot of points, yesterday only 2!

[Malrom]

What a set of BS questions......

3 correct , I knew 2 of them

it seems that we lost jpk again

History is actually just random facts, with one particular genre of entertainment being quite heavily focussed
