As predicted smashedagain's effort at the quiz killed it off in style. I miss the quiz so let's get it going again.
Standard reverse sheep rules:
1) Try and think of least popular/unique answers. Like on Pointless.
2) Score for each question is the number of people who gave that answer.
3) Lowest score wins.
4) Highest scoring answer is the sheep score. Incorrect answers score sheep score + 5.
5) No using google etc.
6) No asking for clarification on questions. Answer however you may interpret.
7) No calling 999 and asking what options they have available. blondepoker take no responsibility should anyone do this and something bad happens as a result of 999 being busy telling you off.
Simple!
PM me your answers by 5pm on Tuesday 4th Sept. The reveal will then take place at 8pm the same day.
The more people who play the better it is. Only takes 2 minutes to throw some answers together. And even the obvious answers don't always do too badly, as of course no-one is stupid enough to actually go for them...
For this quiz I am granting ONE pass. You score 0 for the question you pass. You may not pass the last 3 questions.
Questions:
1 - Name a GBR Gold Medalist at London 2012.
2 - Name a James Bond film which has a one word title.
3 - Name an oil used in cooking.
4 - Name a Welsh music artist who has/have released material within the last 10 years.
5 - Name a football ground used to host games in the football tournament at London 2012.
6 - Poker question. Give a nickname for pocket aces.
7 - A catchphrase used by Bruce Forsyth
8 - Name a European currency currently in use.
9 - Name a member of Monty Python.
10 - Name a post WWII Prime Minister.
11 - Name one of the top 10 selling (by volume) authors between 2000-2009.
12 - Name an emergency service that can be reached by calling 999.

Apparently calling 999 to ask for the options is frowned upon...

For this quiz I am granting ONE pass. You score 0 for the question you pass. You may not pass the last 3 questions.
Obviously you can't pass the last three questions, as you only have one pass  But seriously, don't see the point of limiting passes to certain questions. |

The reasoning behind that rule is so that it's anyones game going into the last 3. I find it spoils it sometimes when someone (TightEnd usually) is leading going into the last question and you realise he hasn't used the pass yet so it's decided before the last question is even revealed. |

That's not what the pass is for. It's there because you have ten or so questions, and the pass is to enable someone to avoid a question they don't know a correct answer to, or one that they know only one or two answers for.
