blonde poker forum

Welcome to the RSQ, brought to you by iCheatedOnce.com ;)

I can never write instructions, so just enter, enjoy and let's have some farce.

Simply answer all the questions below and PM me your answers. Will only take a couple of minutes. Then come along to the reveal and watch the mayhem ensue.

The Rules
---------

For each question your score is the number of people who selected the same answer. The person with the lowest overall score wins. So you want to go for answers that you think will be less commonly given. Levelling commonly happens. The most common answer is called the sheep answer and has the corrseponding sheep score.

You may pass TWO questions. You score zero for these questions.

If you get a question wrong you will score the sheep score + 5.

You are not allowed to do ANY research to come up with answers. All answers must come from your own brain.

The Revealing Of The Answers is interactive so be sure to come along and see how you do, complain when I say your answer is wrong, complain if you think someone elses answer is wrong, or just complain.

Eternal Glory & the "honour" of presenting the next one awaits the winner of the quiz. You will be entering an elite group of 20-30 blondes who have bested the RSQ. Good luck!

The Reveal
----------

Tuesday 30th November - 8pm

The Questions
-------------

1. Name a member of blonde poker forum

2. Name one of the final sixteen acts in 2010 X-Factor

Q1 is horrific. Hang your head in shame.

I know.

There's over 50 answers!

I don't have a clue about 1,2,8,9 or 15. for that reason I am out

Make up yer fecking mind!!!

Farce already

Sure was reading properly when I copied cf's. Will edit.

Right, I've a train to catch. Back later.

Start submitting!

So we can't pass the bolded questions or the last 3?

FWIW I made it so you couldn't pass the last 3 so there'd always be the chance of position changing in the last 3 questions. Always thought it was a bit daft the way the quiz could be decided before the last Q as you know someone hasn't used their pass yet.

Bring back Cf

I know it's hard for you to understand but the point is to have a set of questions that everyone will know at least one answer to without googling

I'm with gatso on this one - for those of us who live in a tree and are about 4 years behind everyone else on current affairs then the only way to enter would be to cheat

I've already stated openly I will be googling mad for this one.  Considering who put it together, only seems appropriate.  And should make for some interesting scoring on the night. 

I'm having a hard time reading/understanding q13.

Are you counting DH1/DH2 as one movie?

Therefore if someone appears in the first 6, not DH1, but yes to DH2, then they've appeared in all films?

Actually nm. Gone for someone who appears in DH1 and DH2 :)

I am out questions are too obscure

Ridiculous.  Most people won't be able to answer the questions without the help of Google.  The point of the RSQ is that most of the questions can be answered easily in seconds, and then the game is looking for the aces (or avoiding the sheep). 


For that reason, I'm also out.

If he reconsiders and edits in a more reasonable selection of questions I'll agree not to google.

I've managed to get some answers in. Had to pass a couple I had no clue about though.

New questions!

anyone reminded of this? http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=42400.0

sharples' first attempt at running a reverse sheep quiz when he was forced to abandon after only 5 pages of abuse

he is a shining example of a farce

There ya go. Fix em/replace em.

Burn and restart

FYP

Yep - after reading that other thread afraid you haven't learnt yer lesson yet Adam.  Re-start or new QM imo.

I'm afraid she's right Adam. It is always my fear when you win, simply too obscure and specialist, with an unhealthy dose of stubbornness and OCD, to be an effective QM

It's happened before and now it has happened again.

1,5,8,910,15 v poor questions. They have to be easy enough that everyone will know at least one answer. Those aren't

Q12 is ridiculous. 

Hugh Laurie and erm.....  and I watch the bloody thing.  If it was asking for characters names, then I'd be able to give more than one answer.  But not everyone watches House anyway, so it'd still be ridiculous.

It would be better as Question Thirteen anyway, but that's just me wanting everything in the world to be smartarse.

Do you know the actresses name?  You might well do, but I have no idea.  In fact, I only know Hugh Laurie's real name out of the whole cast.  Even the one who was in neighbours - no idea what the actor's name is.  Bouncer?

I know "House" and one other, as I am a fan of that female actress. I also watch the thing regularly.

Tough question.

1 = Meh, understandable.

5 = Badly misworded. It really is quite simple. Name an airport that BA fly directly to in the US from LHR.

8 = Bloody hell, this is general knowledge. Name a number one Album from 2010.

9 = Maybe slightly specialist...

10 = whats the bloody difference between this and cf's question from last week involving Strictly Come Dancing?

12 = I might change that to character names.

15 = It's the biggest festival of the year ffs.

I watch it regularly.  But I'm not a film/tv buff who knows the names of all the actors.  So to answer this question well, you need to be a fan of the show AND also a film/tv buff in general.

Listen to your audience Adam. Heed their words. Ta.

...and for that reason most of blonde are OUT.

I am! Just amazed that people can't name at least one album that has been number one this year.

Out of that lot, I will change Q1 completely, modify Q12 to character names and reword 5, 8 & 15.

10 is staying.

9, I will probably change for another well known show.

rotflmfao

Pending your changes, that is progress. Well done.

Problem is you have Laxie who is 55yo and Trafficjam and me who are 40yo and Claw who is 21yo. Claw might be expected to know the albums but how will Laxie?

Changes in the original post.

I've had one PM. Havent looked at it yet as still travelling home. Whoever you are, you'll need to resubmit.

Prophetic:

(http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc43/kinboshi/prophetic.png)

:D

Smartass.

Whilst you're at it, sticky this would you?

unless I cheat I have no idea about 7 questions, way too specific for a quiz like this. For that reason I am out.

even the poker question is ridic. I read some updates for a bit but doubt I've ever read the end of a dtd 300 one so have no idea who's ever won. and I can't pass that

non passable questions really need to be somehthing that it's impossible to fail. the specifics of one particular tournament that most don't play and that isn't the wsop doesn't fall into that category

can mods monitor who opens old update threads to cheat?

...

This...too hard..farce really

August was a good £300 comp iirc.

;whistle;

Wow, Trafficjam is going to be pissed to see she has had a decade added to her age

was a weak field


 ;hide;

:D

Did you win one kin? Think that proves my point when i'm not even aware of a mate winning it

Sure lovin' going from 30 something (technicalities and all) to 55 too.   rotflmfao

No way I could do this. I can kind of understand why people who are in to TV and music think that TV actors and number 1 albums are general knowledge. But they aren't. General knowledge is made up of facts that have a general relevance or importance beyond their own specific sphere, or which at least filter out into the wider public consciousness, so you can be aware of them from more than one angle. (Eg name a member of the Mitchell family in eastenders - I never watch it but still know two or three). Facts about number 1 albums and music festivals have no relevance to anything beyond the album chart or that music festival, so if you don't them then you just don't know them.

Ian Beale?

1. Name a country that qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup

6. There are seven SAW films in the franchise. Name one. - What a ridiculous question..!! - Pass

8. Name a number 1 album from 2010. - NFI - What a ridiculous question..!! - Pass

9. Name somebody who took part in this year's Big Brother. - What a ridiculous question..!! - Pass

10. Name one of the sixteen candidates from 2010's "The Apprentice". - NFI - What a ridiculous question..!! - Pass


FOR ALL OF THE ABOVE and THAT I HAVE TO GOOGLE TO ANSWER MOST - I AM OUT

I cant have 15 questions on the blue shite can I? ;)

This sums it up very eruditely.

My SCD question was acceptable because it involved well known celebrities and as such received widespread media coverage. Even if you dont watch the show the chances are you'll have encountered a name in a news article.

The apprentice features 16 unknowns and has less media coverage. If you don't watch the show you have no chance. Even if their names are in the news you won't recognise them and likely have no interest in the story hence you won't remember them. Hence it's not general knowledge. Hence it's a bad question for the rsq.

I haven't watched one episode of the current series of Strictly - but I know from other people's conversations and from catching glimpses of the show being advertised who's in it (I see the 'thing' that is Widdecombe dancing around and that image sticks in my mind, same with a lot of the other 'celebs').  I knew maybe 8 of the current people in it (no idea if they're still in it or not).

I watch the apprentice and can only give you the full name of one of the entrants, and that's because he's a brand.  I know the first names of some of the others, but that's about it.  Without Google, the question is ridic.

I cant have 15 questions on the blue shite can I? ;)
[/quote]

Whats that got to do with things Adam?  you defence of my comments, attack my football team by calling them shite...  well done..  As clever as your quiz..!!

what an excellent post. 

+1

D'oh I liked this one! Moreso than the last tbh!

are questions in the OP the revised ones?  Have only just seen the thread and can't give an answer for 6 of them :(  As I am only 21yo and well clever something is amiss with this rsq imo.

They are the revised ones!!!

:D

No they're the improved ones. It was a lot worse earlier

marv

Doesn't help that we can't pass the bold ones

I can do the bold ones!

blatant brag post imo

i've only played one RSQ enjoyed it but dont think i can play this one.  will this now happen every week as i would quite like to play again.

No.  Most people 'get it' and know how to choose the questions.  See ya next week.  Too many require google so I'll just have to give this one a miss as well. 

FFS.

Forget it.

Woop woop - Plan A - Success... hehe...

Was almost too easy really.   rotflmfao

Incred thread. How many pages til he broke? On phone so can't see. Is it a record

on the 5th page.  he's consistent anyway.

Difference is that this time I'm not putting up a second thread.

Not 100% certain, but think Kin was working on a backup just in case......

He'll be on tomorrow to confirm.

Just questions where everyone is likely to know the answers is needed, the easier the better!

I know.

Thats why I asked people these questions before posting them. They were able to give answers (I didnt ask the blonde ones obv).

Hmm, perhaps ask random people :D

Also, must answer the bold ones and can't pass the last 3? That's 6 out of 15 - too high % imo. 

You CAN pass the last 3!

Fine.

New questions coming up. Again.

Wiiiiiiiiiiiii

Nice recovery of composure.


FARCE!

New questions up.

Final questions up.

Deal with it.

I'm going to bed. Have an early start tomorrow.

This thread is turning epic

Farce - I've never been to the Trafford Center

New questions are brilliant Sharplea.

oh dear.  actually fairly decent basic questions if they were narrowed down a bit.

Lolol questions are way too vague. Hundreds of possible answers. Adam you are not suited to this

he knows that, he's trying to prove a point.

can we just all kiss and make up, put some limitations on the questions and have a decent RSQ? Please?

Knew we'd break ya down eventually.  Think you'll find lots more entering now.  Have fun with the scoring and objections on the night though as you've left it WIDE open!  

ROFL,gg Sharples.

eg

1. Name a member of blonde poker forum who joined before 1 January 2007

2. Name one of the final sixteen acts in 2010 X-Factor

3. Name a starting hand in Texas Hold'em Poker

4. Name a number 1 song in the UK singles chart from the last 2 years.

5. Name a football club in the Premier League.

6. Name a best actor Oscar winner from the last 20 years.

7. Name an online poker room on the boss network

8. Name a film released in UK cinemas in 2010.

9. Name a WSOP Main Event Bracelet Winner

10. Name a Formula One World Champion from the last 20 years.

11. Name a post WWII UK Prime Minister.

12. Name a curren main character from Coronation Street.

13. Name any shop in the Trafford Centre

14. Name any player who has been capped by England at Association Football since 2000. Full International caps only.

15. Name a horse that has won the Grand National in the last 15 years

Think it could be narrowed down but little need.
There are 100's of answers for lots of questions but how many do people have without googling?
You'll have more answer the more you know on the subject but that's RSQ. Everybody has an answer but the winner will be the one with the most aces.
Think he's done a good job at the 2nd attempt.

For examples 15. Name a horse that was won the Grand National - I can name at least 5 but only 1 from over 15 years ago. If somebody knows more then they will be rewarded for it.

In for the biggest farce in history!!

                                            suggestions for new questions

1. How long is an average sausage

2. How long should you fry a sausage, turning occasionally

3. Name a sausage flavour

4.Should you prick or not prick a sausage before cooking

5. how many sausages could you eat in one sitting

6. How many can you eat without being sick

7. Are battered sausages better than plain

8. whats the best wine to drink with a sausage

9. What flavour sausage to Germans prefere

What is the Trafford Centre?

Someone delete the thread and make the person who came 2nd make one. k ta.

A shopping centre. Name any vaguely popular shop and they probably have a branch in the Trafford Centre.

Why do loads of questions have hundreds of answers?

You've changed naming a prime minister post wwii to just name any prime minster. Why? Q was better as it was.

Crow has an unhealthy obsession with sausage imo.

Sharples is a joke.

FACT.

I'm   prob in though.

My answers are in (again). I expect to finish on 13 points.

I'm in. new quiz is awesome

I already have objections lined up for a few of em :)

Good luck with that. ;)

geordieneil needs to resubmit.

Have a couple of questions. 

For the football league one - what league are we meant to be picking from?

Oscar question - name of movie that's won or a person who's won for their contribution to a movie?

Might have more questions later, but those are the ones that come to mind so far. 

please don't answer adam. questions are all clear enough now

entered. I want 13 Aces, hugely disappointed if I don't.

May yer arms be too short to scratch.  xx

the more things are clarified pre comp the less oppurtunity there is for farce later on. I don't know why people try to ruin things with questions, who wants clarity?

I was wondering one thing though

4. Name a number 1 song in the UK singles chart. No time limit.

does that mean we can answer this one after the reveal?

No.

No time limit on when it was number one. Natural assumption that it has to have been number one by the time of answering!

The Football League, ldo. Not any football league.

Oscar winner is pretty damn simple tbf.

THIS

does that mean i won the 1st lot...as i was the only mug that entered it ;)

No. ;)

Much better questions this time sharples - should be fun when two people both come up with some obscure answers and sheep an answer!

:)up

I just know that's gonna be me

It's not like masturbating though, you need someone else as well.

it'll be me and a random different person for every question.  no analogies required for that one ty.

poor updating of the OP with current entrants imo. I had them up so quickly people actually complained!

That was you tricking us wasn't it Adam..!!  No second thread, because, you put all the new set of questions in the same thread..!!

;)

how will you be settling ties?

by forcing the winners to run simultaneous RSQ question and reveals.......... :D

you are sick

I told you to keep that quiet, monkeyboy.

No more bananas for you!

here's hoping for a four way tie at the top...........

i feel safe that i've got plenty of sheep answers for this one ;D

4hrs 41mins left to get those answers in! Better hurry up...19 so far.

20 in with an hour and 3 mins to go. I'm off to bed and fully expecting my inbox to be rammed when I get up.

Any answers sent in after 23:59.59 according to the PM will be simply deleted. ;)

Sounds like a line from a carry on film.

DAMN!!!  Eyes shut against me will and didn't open til an hour ago.  Ah well.  I'll still call in to point out rubbish answers and stuff.

I'd have just sent the answers in.

Midnight thing was a silly rule if he's not compiling the answers til today anyway. Should be encouraging as many entrants as possible, not setting pointless deadlines.

That said... given how this has gone so far I'm not surprised. Looking forward to tonight...

Who else is exited then?????

Bugger! Is this still going?

I'll be back in a year to see if it has farced itself to death.

OMG!!!  Hey you!!!  It's only in it's second week revival.  Please come back and play RSQ.  We miss you!  Hope all is well.  xx

This

I'm quite excited, but nothing has exited thus far.


:hello:  :-*

This is the second renewal after a long absence. RSQ Art imitating life, it seems.........

Reveal at 8.

This will be finished quite quickly...

It sure will be

[ ] the 6 words I most love to hear

fyp

:hello:

wiiiiiiiii helllllooooooooooooooooooo

Good to see you back x

Oh it will.

Trust me.

Embracing the RSQ concept as always I see.   rotflmfao

Sod you Adam, I've stayed in especially, this will last til midnight and you WILL get a stomach ulcer

that is all

 rotflmfao ;tightend; ;applause;

Finally some sense in the thread.

I rather feel that is not a unilateral decision :)

Hope no-one minds. I'll just be slipping my answers in along the way and giving my own marks, due to numpty midnight cut-off rule.

Carry on everyone.

+1

you had days to get your entry in - stop sulking!

I'm not sulking, just joining in :)

It better had be finished asap, I have work to do tonight.

If it wasnt for the fact that I'm fair...I'd be starting the reveal now.

OBJECTION!!!

Pocket Pair – HOLDorFOLD

objection!!!


That is one of 13 hands, not a single hand

wiiiii another ace for K6os

technolog 4 pts after 3

Q4 - Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree

Didnt I pass this one?

A pocket pair is a starting hand in poker. As is Q4o, as also is 9h 3c.

objection to 'pocket pair' thirded. either fail it or sheep all the pocket pairs imo

http://objection.mrdictionary.net/go.php?n=4551382

its implied by every other contestant giving a forum name

that said the fault is the incompetency in question setting, not in the pigtailed respondent.

No, you have 2 other passes in the answers.

bollox.  would you have allowed 'suited connectors'.  If someone asks you what your starting hand was/is it's very clear they're implying the actual cards, not the type of hand.

Feck

Objection to Q1 ...... I'm late cos I'm supporting blonde on dtd so there  ;angel;


If ut's NOT forum names but 'members' of blonde then all of them are wrong because it should be our real names

All the pocket pairs are different answers. The question is simple - name a starting hand in Texas Hold' Em Poker.

LOL

Adam you are wrong.

Its incompetence in question setting again I am afraid

would '2 red cards' be an acceptable answer then?

Yes.

There were a lot more than 220 answers, put it that way.

and sheep the 93os' too imo, and any other's I've missed.

ridic

Yes it says A starting hand not a type of  starting hand

gg solo :)

Boooooooo. Appalling. Without Google you are lost, clearly

After discussions with an adjudicator - who is anonymous - "Pocket Pair" is a fail.


Against my personal belief.

Any decent RSQ Master would have pm'd me to let me know before hand

Scores will appear every 2 questions.

Feck. Off.

Hate to say it but that's kinda nit picky :D

I was going to post ridic to something else

seconded.  would also like to point out before anyone challenges it that my answer included the full band name 'New Kids on the Block', as they had not, at that stage, changed to the shortened NKOTB version.  The abbreviation was the QMs work

The double bluff fails.

TBF if you got it right we would have all objected on the grounds that you googled ;D

pft.  morally i'm joint 1st imo.

Quite good scoring your own - you get to ride rough-shod over the QM and also swerve the quiz setting if successful - I'd recommend it!

Always does, thought it was about time it worked

Objection - question clearly asked for a "room".
My answer is a room. The rest are fails.

Ooops

In that case

slow down ffs - i want to object to Kin's prime minister answer.  herbert asquith, please.

Source that said gentleman was not a PM?

almost went for him. Prime Minster in 1910ish, went to my school. Good answer

Main Character?

Victoria Sugden - TightEnd

???

Better off just PM'ing Joobs then  ;D

what?  Henry was the dude's middle name.  afaik he wasn't commonly known by it.

there's no source that will outright tell you i have never been prime minister, but i can promise you I haven't.

Objection denied. I've never taken Tighty on in a general knowledge question and won, ergo he must be right.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/clairep75/jackrelationship.jpg)

Emmerdale, obv.

Sugdens a long term family in that.

just to clarify tighty, did you almost go for herbert or henry?

I dont feel that Victoria is a main character.  But Shaplea doesnt have the guts to go against you Tighty.  Well done you win.

He was Herbert Asquith

Known as Squiffy I believe. Saw it on Eggheads once

McDonalds is a restaurant not a shop

just because its not your quiz......missing the intoxication of QM power I reckon Soviet.

It sells things in the Trafford Centre. It's a pass.

NNOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR     FML

Don't know whether there's an ELC or not but will claim it anyway in a farcical, self-scoring sort of way

technolog 12pts

Q14 Martin Chivers

BOOM!!!

thank you.

fail kinboshi's henry asquith please.  ty.

costa coffee is a cafe rather than a shop imo. therefore this is an objection to the sheep

this

She has been in it for 16 years. Long enough for me.

Seconded Kin's answer was HENRY

I am surprised that Tighty watches Emmerdale

there's a guy who wanders round bluewater selling dvds out of his backpack but that doesn't make him a fucking shop

yeah but apparently we have to post a link confirming that this henry dude was never a PM himself......

Man of many non-talents Ellen.

and we know he watches eastenders too after last week

much love much love

It is known as Costa coffee Shop on their loyalty card


and pray Mr Gatso dearest, any reason why you would object to this answer and not the McDonalds one ......  you cannae tilt me you know, not this time round haha

fwiw, thirded

Henry Asquith is incorrect

Theres a lot of sheep in Emmerdale

all answers for soap question should be a fail as none of them have 'main' characters, they all come and go innit.

Most of them blown up by falling airplanes

haters gonna hate

well you shouldn't have said it was a good answer then should you?

where's sharples gone? has he imploded?

mcdonalds had already been objected to

I misunderstood what you were getting at. You were right.

Asquith is incorrect.

Costa and McDonalds stand.

Costa Coffee sells things. you dont' have to sit at a table and consume everything, in fact you'd have a hard time swallowing a bag of coffee beans or a ceramic mug.  You can even pop in to buy the nice little cakes from their shop

8 points for Kinboshi.

fyp ;)

Well played Claw, Exemplary objectioning and persistence

Dot Cotton has been in EE from the start and still there

wheeeeee

But the show doesn't revolve around her, therefore not a main character imo.

From the Sugdens, I'd say Molly was the correct answer here

(http://www.bearsac.com/Meets.Celebrities/eastenderwinston.jpg)

Winston has been in eastenders since 1985 doesnt make him a fucking main character does it?

Trying to play two dtd sate's and keep up with this ...... now I've gotta farkin apologise lol     

Oops sorry dearest Gatso

and that Tracy bird what works in the pub and the chippy sometimes

I'm putting up my decorations tomorrow

blimey that was quick crow!

why's the next quiz not up yet?

got time for another quiz and reveal tonight imo.  who's up for running speed rsq?

I'm gonna say not me

chicken

You could do a 10 question quiz Claire, you said you were bored :)

I will do one if someone will mark it for me

the cumulative scores not the individual rounds

8 rounds only

I will if it's done and dusted within an hour

I'll play. nothing more involved though, just opened up a load of tables

i would hope so

8 questions coming, I will do scores for individual rounds, Claw can add them up 5 runners minimum

new thread pls

hurry up. 

Not surprised "he without a back bone" incorrectly marked  my Asquith answer from claw's objection. He was known as H.H. and was called Herbert and Henry at different times of his life. Whilst PM, he was called Henry by his immediate family, hence that being the name of the PM.

Imagine listening to someone who doesn't even know what the football league is.

too late aftertimer

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^loser^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

you should have just said 'asquith' instead of trying to be a smartarse innit

jeez, no one look at Delboy's questions until they've had a good sleep imo
