Anyway you know why your here lets get cracking

There are 15 questions, PM your answers to me by noon on Tuesday 9th June.  Each answer is to be on a different line with corresponding question number.

Reveal will be Tuesday 9th June starting at 19.30.

Your score for each question is number of people who give the same correct answer. So you want to go for answers that you think will be less commonly given. Levelling commonly happens. The answer most commonly given is called the sheep, with the corresponding sheep score.

You are not allowed to do ANY research on or off the internet (that includes asking hubbies, wifey's, dilfey's, milfey's or your kids) to come up with answers - all answers must be your own from the murky depths of your brain.

If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive the sheep score + 10.

You MUST pass on one, and only one, question and score a 0 for that question.  Objections must be accompanied by proof (links) or they will be ignored.

All are welcome to enter this week and welcome to abuse QM via Forum, PM or text before during and after RSQ 21. Previous winners can run the next RSQ or nominate a new QM if they wish.

Bahamas wasn't an ace ;)

Should be a bit easier this week, just got to remember some previous RSQ's and must remember not to watch ESPN America to give away any answers ;D

ps are you serious for Q14 - is this supposed to be common knowledge?

twas :P

Some good questions.

Some utter farcical questions!!!

Some repeat questions!

my apologies i just remembered MrHM complaining about not getting an ace (one of the 15+ times on the thread), on looking back he chose another island beginning with "B" :)

this.  still can't remember the upshot of the discussions on the definition of 'starring' so have had to go for a safe bet on that one.

+1

Can you prove the answer one way or another?

For example, I know of one hotel in Vegas which I don't think served coke - but if you fail it, is it even going to be possible to prove it one way or another?

I quite liked this one. I think i've got a couple of sheep in but think there is only one possible fail in there and that's the NHL hockey team.

Having a monkey around that follows american sport finally came in useful :)up

Except that now your answer will be a fail because:



WP   rotflmfao

I've failed before I even submit it, 3 Q's I have no clue on

clarification

14. Name a hotel in Las Vegas that serves Pepsi and not Coca-Cola

do some hotels have exclusive deals with one not the other then?

this might have to be my pass

Most hotels have an exclusive deal with one or the other, which ones they are will be an utter guess though.

Do they have to be poker theory books?

or does poker scene/poker life/generally in some way related to poker count?

Except for SharpGoogle and Joobask.com

Its the proof tho, eg a list of every single hotel in LV which clearly shows who sells pepsi solely and who sells coca cola, if that cannot be provided how can it be a valid question.

clarification

TWO ice hockey questions

do you think that most of your audience can answer two ice hockey questions?

I don't. Only one pass. Ice Hockey overkill threatens quiz IMO

three if you count permanent ice rinks

Quiz showing potential!!

I can't answer any so thats me failed on Ice Hockey

and how can he disprove wrong answers?

That was the first point I made

he doesn't have to disprove them, he can just fail them

I have a request

can we please change the scoring of fails back to how it used to be?

this sheep score +10 means that a single fail rules you out of winning, it's far too big

[ ] Quiz will work

Add the number of people who know nothing about Ice Hockey, with the number that won't have a clue about the Pepsi farce, and multiply it by the beating you get for a fail, and you have a faaaaaaarce! wp

As I would be guessing too many of this weeks answers I decided not to enter... so I had a look about to see if it was possible to prove answers for question 14, surprisingly, there is a list that shows the hotels choice of brand!

Farcetastic warning though, the list doesn't cover all Vegas hotels...

Thank you

I suspected this would be the case

So even if you have been to Vegas, and had pepsi/coke at any of the hotels - this information isn't necessarily going to help.

What the question is actually asking for is a hotel which just happens to be on the list the QM is using.

:D

didn't need to ask him - but I know one, and only one, answer to this because he wears their shirt all the time!

new questions, at least take out Cluedo (repeat), Icehockey (ghey sport, have you seen the handbag fights?), and the coke one (what you drink in Vegas, stays in Vegas). At least to save the numbers. Otherwise, brilliant quiz.

Good point

you only need 11 questions after all

questions are fine imo.  a couple of repeats from earlier quizzes, but that makes it kind of interesting to see how people adapt if they remember what the sheep answers were before.  I'm also quietly confident on the pepsi one, because I know a few of the chains have exclusivity deals.  How it will work in practice with some of the smaller independents though is a different matter.

US States is a repeat, with 50 possible answers there should be about 20 Aces

not a great question

52, obv.

any more than one sport question and I'm usually fooked. 

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a2/Farsi.svg/160px-Farsi.svg.png)

14. Name a hotel in Las Vegas that serves Pepsi and not Coca-Cola


Is this a joke? how on earth are you supposed to get this unless you have been to a hotel in vegas?

guess...or google...or phone round hotels?

a new spin on an old theme

A+

Did Newmanseye help with this RSQ?


On behalf of Scotland, I appologise :(

I hope MrAlex enters this one.  He runs well on Las Vegas hotel questions....

Shame there isn't a question about aquatic mammals as well, and then it'd be complete.

Oooooooooh good save!  If we decide last minute to throw together the Ladies team for the bash footy, you're in goals.

sigh. how many bloody times have we told you? It's 'in goal'. this is not america

You can take the girl out of America, but you can't take America out of the girl.  God knows you lot have tried your best. 

Can we send her back?

:dontask:

The Irish tried that.  No joy.

Might give this one a miss, I think I've done much of this quiz already.

Plus the 9 questions on figure skating is a bit much for me.

pass

Oh dear Ice Hockey Questions - Now if I was 50 years younger I could answer these as I was an avid Ice Hockey supporter.

I used to go to Haringay Ice Rink near Finsbury Park nearly every night I was there skating in my little short skirt trying to catch the eye of the hockey players.  I used to follow the team which was called Haringey Racers (was a proper little ice hockey groupie) alas they closed the ice rink and the greyhound track and it is now a shopping complex.

As to one of the other questions - I think might be able to answer that!

if i can mind 'goals' from the comfort of my hotel room whilst asleep, I'm in :)up

There is usually questions i dont know and have to guess, but i cant answer the hockey ones at all, not even a guess so gonna have to sit this one out.
Non RSQ question farce.

I like the pepsi/coke question though and my answer would obv be Hilton

Hilton would have been my answser too, if only to ensure yours wasn't an ace.

[  ] I suspect I would have been alone on that one.

How many runners so fars?

4..

OMG you made it too hard

Lol just checked my answers and i have really ballsed this up.

What state do the 7 dwarfs come from??   Hi Hoooooooooo

I think we should have Michigan

gonna pass this, hockey questions lol..

3 questions on which I had no clue and 2 that were complete guesses means I won't be winning this

have entered. Not very confident although I know a couple of the sporty ones, no idea if they'll be non sheepish

if you've answered either of the ice hockey ones you'll be very unlucky not to have an ace seeing as only you and the monkey will have answered

I know a local-ish UK Ice Hockey team, but only because I went to watch Masters football at the venue lol and I know of the team near DTD which I think is probably the best known UK team, if I know who they are.

I know a few NHL teams.

that's about it


The Pepsi/Coke question is nasty..not a scoobie on that. I know three Scottish castles, two of which are very sheepy, again not a nice question for those of us South of the Watford gap but that's the luck of the QM draw. Fold or Fold gave us London-centric questions so them's the breaks.

I should have known local-ish ice hockey team name as I've taken Hannah skating a few times recently and the team logo has been plastered all over the place, along with match fixtures etc.  Couldn't for the life of me remember their name though, so had to pass that one - if only I had a photographic memory :(

Sent.  I know one UK ice hockey team, and could only think of one in the NHL (but I should know more).

I think I have a few sheep on the other questions too.

chances are even if you go for a well known hockey team you'll still score an ace as only 5 people have answered it :D

even Kinfishi's attempt to cover up him googling will probably get him an ace - baseball i can understand but i don't know many japanese exports to the NHL!! ;)

having a nice chilled out late Sunday evening now listening to all my favourite Beatles songs after being prompted by this thread.  They really were fab, weren't they? :)up 

They really were, my dad brought me up on the Beatles, was all that was on in the house, my party piece was a Beatles song lol oh everyone's poor ears hehe.

funny, I always thought I was more of a 'john' girl, but as I'm getting on a bit, I'm finding the Paul songs are my favourite.  I might go a bit bloke-like and stick my top ten together, then do a John/Paul analysis of the results.  I think I may be turning into Tighty.

excellent.  Karaoke, Leeds, September, Mair, Beatles.  It's a date!

LOL, John Lennon is a legend tho, my dad has tons and tons of collectors items of beatles and more of John, he was devasted when he was killed and had an obsession at getting everything he ever recorded.  Got him a huge mosiac pic of john for his lounge wall for his christmas one year, think its the best present ive ever given him he said lol.

Would be interested to see your top 10 Claire :)

LOL omg im too shy, you would have to make sure i was drunk to get me to do it!

if I can ever narrow it down and get it in order i'll put it up somewhere.  Going to be a tough job though, and not sure it's do-able!

After a busy few days finally settled down to do this

[ x ] Glad I watch ice hockey

easier than I thought actually.  live reveal of top ten coming soon to a facebook status page near you :)up

Edit: boo, facebook won't let me update anymore - probably things I'm spamming.  My 1-6 may have to remain forever a mystery!

Spacefrog will make a go for this.


1 time. 

fantastic - this is going to be the best RSQ ever!  make sure you're around on Mardi for the reveal spacefrog :)

OK. Spacefrog is finish. Some of these things I no no.


Who is behind me? For me to win you, lol.

15 in so far in this farce of a quiz :P

Please rule however you wish, as long as Spacefrog wins

Would be an RSQ for the ages, that one

Knowing one UK team because I lived in the city where they play hardly requires googling.  The NHL one I know because of bloody Disney.

I've been to an ice hockey game in the UK a few years ago so i knew two teams. I remember before a "puck off" they played adams family. I picked the team that wasn't from the same city as DTD.
I guessed at an NHL team but didn't think it was right. Having looked at the list i only recognise one other team.

F Alton Towers

Cool

<---------- has objection on standby for tomorrow night ;)

After a lot of wing flappin , My crowmaster answers are posted

double reverse as deleted the original question??

+1

i'll have you lot know I was so conformtable with all the questions that my first PM had no pass = I did re PM

Geez I wanted to pass on 3, crapshoot guesses on 2.

Sent.  Sigh. 

For all the complaining you guys did enough of you entered :P 24 in list of runners on the first page.

That was to punish you.

This is going to be the biggest belter since the great Laxie Londonderry uprising..

I wouldn't go that far just yet...

uh oh.

lol

Going to rugby training for the first time since my knee ligament and cartilage operation tonight so will miss the start of the reveal.
If the knee doesn't hold up i'll miss the end of it too.....

I think I'll be missing the reveal - but can I sponsor this thread if there's advertising space available?

OK - here are my rates (for the duration of the reveal).  You can take an individual component, or any combination.

Avatar - $1.50
Title - $1.00
Signature, text only - $1.50
signature, text and picture - $2.00

Payment accepted via stars or tilt transfer.  No nudity or profanities, and all advertisements must be vetted and approved by me prior to agreement.

Disappointed - not a single sniff of a customer.  perhaps I need to advertise my advertising rates on someone else's profile?

Can I have all of them spots please?

Don't want to play a flat rate, but maybe you could work it on an affiliate basis, and get 10% of any sales?

PM me details of what you want to advertise, and we'll negotiate.

Damn, that was meant to be in a PM...

Reveal put back half an hr due to unforseen circumstances.. 8pm now

Good start !!

I'm going to miss the reveal - at a pub quiz. Depending on how slow this one is I might make it back for the end of it :)

I've probably done hopeless. I wouldn't mind a flukey win tho as I wouldn't mind running one of these :) (tho i do realise i'm probably mad for actually wanting to do one lol)

FARCE!  You think i've actually got anything better to do to fill my time?!

Actually scratch that. Quiz can start on time.

Scratch what quiz?

Ooooh, QM throws in a sneaky bluff.  Hoping nobody will be around for the first 30 minutes, eh?

Reverse bluff!  You're LATE!!!

technically so was your entry...

Shhhhhh, no need to cut hairs here.

Who?

twas a year but thanks for noticing :P

the dead guy

Not you, QM Matt. 

You just need to lay of the banana splits.

[ ] character

imo

course its a character I didnt say playable character now did i?

Is it 'coz he is Black?

The geezer whose murder the players are trying to solve.

its just the split part :D

Smoogle?

oi I am the lower bodyke champion at cluedo

playing cluedo as a kid there was never any mention of who had died - so have they changed this nowadays or is the answer only available to those who google? ::)

Start of every game on the Cluedo quiz machine.

dead body=object

Yes they did - you just weren't paying attention

do you read the instructions before you play ?

the guy that got done with the lead piping in the ballroom by colonel mustard......

Person = character.

Hope the QM did.

Formal objection to the "character" of this black fella. He isn't a character and as he is dead he hasn't got one either.

Formal rebuttal to objection:


Bollocks

SECONDED

AGREE

Dr. Black - found dead on Saturday evening at approximately 8.45pm. The body was found at the foot of the stairs leading to the cellars, on a spot marked "X". Miss Scarlett found the body. Apparently, her screams were heard in the village nearby! Does Miss Scarlett protest too much?

ergo Dr Black = character

I'm with the bollocks

FYP

Not even alive ffs

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Cluedo_characters#Dr._Black.2FMr._Boddy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Cluedo_characters#Dr._Black.2FMr._Boddy)

This should settle the dead character dispute http://www.kbdedit.com/manual/dead_character_properties.html

Alive --- have you seen Kin at the poker table -- I rest my case

Don't be silly, you know the right thing to do, jfdi

I have to be at work for 8:30, can we get on with it?

oi you thats the lowest score in weeks -- move on scores please

one sad listmaker's flawed opinion of what constitutes a character does not an objection rebuttal make

noted.. will change that apologies..

(http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo211/Robert_HM/GA.gif)

All the same game FFS

Clearly not. Mario Kart 64 and Super Mario Kart were counted seperately.

Good man x

im still objecting to lady lavender she was in the UK version of Cluedo board game

no way.

Hello everyone, its get Mr Ice Rink time

She was?

Actually you might be right here.. I thought the Wii version was called Mario Kart.. but checking nintendo's site it is Mario Kart Wii.. Apologies but It's now a fail.. I knew Mario Kart 64 was definitely a stand alone game..

oh please

So I win this thing yes?

He is right.  It's in Robert's Rules.

Zut alors!!

Patience...

http://www.cluedofan.com/cmerch/advanced.html

Ok ive done a search (and no i didnt bloomin google it before i put it as an answer) but it says in this she was in the UK version.  My family and I played cluedo regularly hence me knowing her name!

No she wasn't - she was in Clue FX - a different game

I do hope so mon ami

dunno about the rest but I know mines a pass http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Kart_64

cluedo sfx, is still cluedo board game, just a newer version for its time.

predictable post, he's bookmarked his googles

Thats what I said when you quoted me :P

Thought you might.

the question did not state, the original version of cluedo it just said Name a character in the board game Cluedo [UK version only]

FFS get in the spirit missgoogler

You have a point here - the question perhaps should have said 'Original UK Version'.  To be honest I have never heard of that character before.

The board game CLUEDO.   Not Monopoly, not Cluedo FX, not Strip Poker for Beginners (Deluxe Edition).

have we had a ruling on the dr black farce yet?

(http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo211/Robert_HM/gs.gif)

he's dead apparently.

erm -- don't sit on the fence - just say FAIL

FARCE cluedo is cluedo, no matter how many newer modern versions they created to keep up with the market

It was farcically ignored

yes, we ignore it and hope it goes away

ffs - nearly went for colonel mustard but thought he was the sheep last time - was he?  Cba looking for it.

We tried that with sharplea - but he keeps on coming back.

 rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao

Mr Black stands.. without his presence as a CHARACTER.. the game is pointless.. Objections ignored

Spam

















but quoted for added effect

Abs mega farcicalness

keep it up ;)

BRILLIANT .... I LAUGHED LOTS !!

anyone lend me............

kev - how much is it?

When is Leeds again?

I'm avoiding it.

Thanks dealer.

Answer the man!

Quoted again, oh dear

Have we finished yet?

Who won?

Any objections to the updated mario's ??

will post the scores if none.

LMFAO just LMFAO

Im still not happy, cluedo board game is cluedo board game was never stated to be the original one...FARCE I TELL YOU

cheers :)up

anybody? ;whistle;

For what?

ALREAYD PLAYING ON AN IPOKER CLIENT

Not sure, ask him

oh, I see now. CHARACTER is in capitals so dr black counts. sure is a great ruling

Super Mario crazy tennis karting in DonkeyKong land

You won't be for long. 

Use two computers ffs.

F it i'll play to make the nos up,can't make the actual event though.

But it was cluedo FX.. That would be like in the Monopoly question last week saying Easter Road and Tynecastle as a set.. because it was Monopoly Edinburgh,..

Farce, question clearly asks for a video game that has featured Mario not what bloody console it plays on.

Bloody farce!!!

Ill let Laxie and matt off that lot but the rest you .... shame!

I go on vacation in 2 weeks. Will this thing be over so Spacefrog can go?


Merci for this.

I'd like to know exactly what answer Kinboshi put please word for word Mr QM

You must have seen The Mighty Ducks?

..and to be fair to Laxie, she is a Septic.

lol...

excuse me!  Matt supports the coyotes :p

He put anaheim ducks.. I'd have failed him as im fully aware the mighty and the sweet ass jerseys left when Mickey did.

yep, amazing - everyone complains they know absolutely nothing about ice hockey but still 18 correct answers and no wrong answers

which leads me to believe that he googled it due to his admission earlier that it was only because of Disney that he put the answer he did.....................

[X] Heard of the Oilers
[  ] Remembered them
[  ] Heard of the others....

Poor QM not to dish out any failes for OBVIOUS googling

i rest my case

Where on earth is Anaheim?

not everyone complained..

How can i prove it.. unless everyone can give me a back story...

I can't beleive Dallas Stars didn't Ace, thought i was a certainty to ace one of the three teams I knew lol

Sigh.

Saw The Mighty Ducks, and then someone informed me about the actual team that Disney own (or owned).

Good point. You're crap at characters though.

Anaheim Angels are a baseball team from LA

outskirts of LA - whre disneyland is

LA

That hurts Bob truly ... if you were winning and not sucking you'd be singing a diff tune imo

How is it that no one knew these Ice Hockey teams at the beginning of the week yet they all come up with answers.   GOOGLED

when I watched it a hell of a lot they were my fav team

Agreed. Mostly

TRUE :)

this

yes "The Anaheim Mighty Ducks", they only changed their name 3 years ago after Disney sold the franchise and the owners decided not to move - so unless you watched the film in the last few years and also had a friend round at the time to discuss the finer points of the game..............

Last year - on Sky.  It was crap.

remember this?

#Invalid YouTube Link#

No

The amount of googling that has gone on this RSQ is shocking

another 18 correct answers and only 4 wrong answers - quality

for people who no absolutely nothing about ice hockey, well played  ;applause; :respect: ;applause;

Agreed as many complained about the Ice Hockey Questions

never heard of any of them!!!!!!

Oh come on, he was almost right. It's hard for him he doesn't live in the United Kingdom of Great Britain, Northern Ireland and Derry.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universities_Of_London_Dragons

to be fair for a minute I know Sharplea knows Coventry, and of course Shogun knows Flintshire, and Jon MW Cardiff

i know  feck all about tennis but i could name quite a few players

I thought Kinboshi would have put Coventry as well, to be fair.

And Bobalike has worked in Telford for the last 20 years.

And not everyone complained about the hockey questions ;)

They are my local team at Deeside Leisure Centre lol...  less than 10 mins drive from here, I listen to Dee 106.3 radio, they always get mentioned

Never heard of a coventry ice hockey team.

I lived in Sheffield for four years, and my mate ran the pub next to the Arena where the Steelers played.  Used to go and watch the Sharks play basketball there, but never went to the ice hockey.

proving that they have a website doesn't really show you didn't google though does it?

sigh 50 52 to choose from and still get a sheepy one!

nope but having kids is class

they had to clear the ice rink there after an accident where rather than fall on thomas i went over and the back of the skate punctured back of my leg causing them to clear the ice and stretcher me off

OBJECTION - 3 aces and a pass does not equal 4.

It's sometime easier to spot the non googlers.
Well played us. :)

Aces for no author

[  ] good quiz

I was on 47 the question before, then you completely miss my answer off the one about the states and I lose 13 points. I'll win if I lose that much each question.

in fact it looks like 1/2 the field got negative points for the usa question

Please post which author sharples googled .... thanx

yeh but the spreadsheet added 1 rd twice...

I didn't.  Minus points for me please.
