The Rules

There are 15 questions

PM me your answers by Monday 6th December 23.59 GMT. Please give each answer on a separate line with corresponding question number.

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 twice the corresponding score.

You are not allowed to do research such as Google searches to come up with answers.

If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive the sheep score +5.

You MUST pass on TWO, and only TWO, questions and score a 0 for those questions.

Spelling mistakes will be treated according to their severity and may invoke a penalty.

Any Questions?

Stickied

P.s Ouch. A real toughie

Yes, Name an extant dukedom in the peerage of England?  What's an extant dukedom?

if they're seriously your questions then I'm pretty sure I'm out. can't answer about 5 of them

One thats still in existance

i'm gonna answer tomorrow when the questions have been changed to proper ones.

Farce.

Bring back sharples ffs.  Bad isn't good until it gets worse.

and by 'about 5' I mean 6

Struggling on 5-7 of them here.

Ouch.

Are they bad. you should know answers to all if you think about them

OK, cheers moving on up, Name a breed of deer native to Great Britain - I thought deers were deers :D

Looking up, there's quite a few I don't know, aren't these supposed to be easy? I think Delboy moves in  different circles to me :)

is that a rubdown?

I can't answer 6 either

13. Name a breed of deer native to Great Britain

No I fucking deer

Sums it up for me.

If you married a nobleman's daughter and lived on a country estate at some stage surrounded by deer, yes. Oh, wait

Most are guessable no?

good start to the farce tho. 

Q 13.

Bambi?

I think this is the most upper-class quiz I've ever seen.

lol

It's all a bit

(http://www.comedy.co.uk/images/library/comedies/300/f/fast_show_ted_ralph.jpg)

do i look like han solo?

just checked and these are same 6 I couldn't answer too

Not without your lightsabre

oh yeah, sorry. I meant as han solo says

sigh.

The whole point of this it to be accessible to everyone. That quiz is just too hard.

People need to realise that just because they know something doesn't mean everyone else does.

I mean: name a breed of deer. WTF?

The questions are supposed to be EASY with obvious answers an idiot can guess with some obscure answers for the experts.

I won't be playing this one unless there are new questions.

Name a question you won't see on a Delboy reverse sheep quiz.

ACES 1 point

Tightend - Name a manafacturer of cloth caps.

Claw75 -  Name a breed of whippet.

kinboshi - Name an ingredient in a Lancashire Hot Pot.


SHEEP 2 points

gatso, thetank -  Name someone that people actually know.

technolog, Cf - Name a beverage available to purchase in flight on an easyjet airplane.


FAIL zero points

Delboy - Name one of my aunties.

Ironside - Name one of the hors d'oeuvre's they'll be serving at William and Kate's wedding.

PASSES

mondatoo

lol - brilliant!

(apart from the fail being zero points. that's a bit of a fail in itself, but the rest of the post is so much win i'll let you off)

just lol tank. lol

I liked it when you wrote this bit

exactly how long would you like me to think about q10? it's not going to help

Holy shit.

And you lot thought my questions were bad ffs! ;)

I would say that 6 of the questions are suitable 2, 4, 8, 9, 11 and 14. maybe no. 7 at a real push but not really

They were.  However, Delboy has managed to find 15 that are at least as bad - and certainly more upper class.

7 isn't suitable in the slightest.

I should also point out that there's no need to have 15 questions if you're struggling to come up with suitable ones. 10 is more than enough. 10 w/ 1 pass is fine.

I expect Jeeves to win this one.

Questions modified by popular request, and due to the fact that I had one entry with quite a few fails..

You are kidding right

I don't go to Oxford university. I don't live in or near Oxford. I don't watch university challenge.

Why should I know its colleges?

yeah, I agree now. only wanted it in so I could go for scumbag college but have now realised that's wrong anyway

English History

ffs i just about finished the quiz easiest one ever and you lot get him to change it

who on earth is martin scorses?

neither have i but i know of atleast 3 of them

I didn't know this afternoon's english history question on are you smarter than a 10 year old

Come again?

he was watching "are you smarter than a 10 year old" and failed on the question aimed at a 10 year old on english history

man derrick the dog you not learnt anything from the previous 30 incarnations on rsq NEVER win

it's a television programme that common people watch

History was always my least favourite subject at school lol.

The updated questions though generally seem much better than the first batch.

guess i'll just be passing the oxford university one.

Maybe a good candidate for a pass then?

The question itself is fine - very much in general knowledge territory.

Didn't see the original questions, but they must've been corkers!  The amended version looks fine though.

LOL Tank WP

previous quiz was fine imho just tighty kicking up a fuss as he didnt know a couple of answers
call himself a quiz champion i think he used google on the 15-1 show

PMSL @ the tank!! Good tekkers son!

 ;D

No need to thank me everyone.

:D

Do people really watch it though?  Even common ones?

Didn't see the original set, but the current ones are pretty good IMHO. I've entered, and I've not done a RSQ since about no.6, so they must be ok :).

Or maybe it's just because I'm "working from home" today.

I didn't go to Oxford, but I know the Cambridge college I went to has an inferior namesake in Oxford, so I went for that.

why would anyone not watch it. it's brilliant when you first turn it on because you don't know whether it's gonna be an old one or a new one so you don't know whether you're gonna get noel edmonds or dick and dom presenting but whichever one it is you still feel like you've won even before the questions are asked

It's shit, really poor television.  The idea is ok, the presentation of it is woeful.

My pledge:  "If I ever manage to win a RSQ again, I will not include any questions that require knowledge of London or the British honours system or the royal family."

;)

They're all inferior in Oxford!  I was surprised he didn't go for either of the great universities (Cambridge or Hull) in the question.

Not that I'm biased in any way (GO THE LIGHT BLUES!)

new questions still seem a bit posh but at least I could answer/guess most so I'm now in

techno must have as he'd sent his entry in before the questions were changed.

There seems a problem, the same people who win these quiz's seem to set horrendous questions...talk about very difficulty questions again!

How about the person who finishes last gets the job of running the one after this? Force people to try and do the best they can lol

cf      Jonny Depp

Good evening your Lordship. <tugs forelock>

ffs tank.

and what kind of farcical answer formatting is that?

OBJECTION

Jonny Depp was once a child

But not a child star

let's do some objection things then.

I object to girgy's answer on teh grounds i've never heard of him and therefore wouldn't recognise him.  I don't know who macaulie calkin is either.

whats that scoring? 

Some obvious google answers there!

Home alone -- keep up

Tighty, put a bob in the meter pls.

Overruled:

'Jerry Maguire' and 'Home Alone'

is blonde running like a bitch for anyone else. I mean a really slow bitch ldo

Read OP please

really slooooooooow

OBJECTION - SCORING..!!

3 people share same answer = 3 points...

1 person gets incorrect answer = 8 points,

oh my bad - I thought that was Macaulay Culkin ::)

sure isn't

Thought Delboy was meant to be hot on spelling?

macaulie calkin is not Macauley Culkin, clearly.

does being in a film as a child make you a child star? don't think so. seriously never heard of girgy's one

+1

he was in hoam allone, apparently

I was rushed and of course did not look it up

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 twice the corresponding score.

Definition of a "child star" from a reputable source pls

pretty much my point.  the question did say 'recognisable' which i would presume mean most people would know who they were if they saw them.  i've googled the dude - if i saw him in sainsbury's i'd think he was just a local scallywag.

He appears to have changed the scoring regimen and no one noticed.

It's what the upper classes do, enact rules and make the proletariat work with it

lol utter QM fail

doesn't even understand the rules

lolz. the old fake spelling mistake to hide googling trick. round here we call that the sharples

lol

Girgy's is a clear fail. Fails the definition of Star, and fails a google test too I reckon

Sharplea would know.

or at least the reasoning behind the rules

gg anyone if you get a sheep answer or even fail a question

Gtfo gatso!!

"the human head weighs 10 pounds"

Wait till you see the rest of em

booking in for bed and breakfast on this RSQ. 15 Questions and Q1 is a terrible farce.

All-nighter here we come

I corrected the spelling in a lot of cases because some of the answers wer laughable bad.

Some I just C&Pd cause I was rushing

I knew who he meant so objection overruled

lol nh sir/maam

Points??

errr, what?

Ture - I'm Irish and spell Derry differently as well

he said the human head weighs 10 pounds

do keep up

20 minutes in and we've not even got close to finishing question one.  if i have to pull a sicky tomorrow i'm blaming the QM.

Move on!!

?

Next...............

Tell your employer "eye downt feal wel, eye kant cum in todei"

He'll understand.

your fail scoring is wrong...its the sheep +5 surely...8


but ludicrous that the sheep scores more than the fail Derrick?

scores and positions after each round is customary.  I'm sure the spreadsheet Jeeves knocked up for you will do the trick

whooooaaaaa. where's the ruling on girgy's 'child star'?

WTF I got an ace and I'm on 14 points??

Ps my mums got antology 3 by the beatles!!

oh i see -  you've already added the round 2 scores.  let's get the round 1 scores right first!

How many points do you get if you get it wrong, AND give the same answer as someone else?

;carlocitrone;

Ruling on Girgy's unfamous child "star" please

Please dont move on until you have corrected the scores...!!  Sheep dont get double points...!!!!

Sheep get stndard points...

Incorrect answers get Sheep plus 5....

this.  and sort the scores out.  and stop posting the scores before objections are over and done with.

Don't make me hurt u gatso!!

I can hear it now, why the fuck did i do this job lol

Good job my Fridge is full

oh and FARCE!!!

My Mum's got Buddy Holly's Greatest Hits, but it's not a Beatles studio album.

I second this from my furniture selling friend

Overruled

It's a good start Del

:D

i hope Jeeves left his mobile on in case of emergencies.  you might need to pay him double time to come back and sort out the mess tho.

LOL,sure not expecting Delboy to blow up and not finish this,I set the line at Q3.

gatso and tightend are not the same person you fool. you've met us both, you've even seen us both in the same room

Why? those are the rules in RSQs 1 through 29, and you did not publicise any change except in very small print

Poor form, imo

draw, nailed-on.



FARCE.



!

Well done if you are gonna ruin the scoring..!!

He stared in a big movie

The peasants are revolting.

 I have tits and gatso doesn't. That help?

Do we have an invisible spoiler type font on blonde? You know the ones you need to mouse drag over to see. Should start adding hidden rules like that next.

Illogical, Your lordship

You might go to chat gatso up in a club though if you only caught sight of the back of his head.

I associate Christmas with joy and fun..

A golf club is not either

you could do the scoring round by round?


A good RSQ QM should be prepared to be flexible and not do the scores beforehand imo. Just like me

having heard the anecdote this should deffo be an ace

WTF ??

A tin of Quality streets is a level yeah ?

Also ffs how do I not ace that question

Not just illogical, Fkin Dumb too...

If you are scoring that way, please remove all my answers and change them to...  Rhubarb

err yes it is. golf clubs are a very common christmas present.

rotflmfao

Fail scores 6+5 =11

just in case the QM overlooked this...

ROFLCOPTERS

How come 2 people answer the same answer and get aces?

just to add to the amusement factor my brother has cerebral palsy so can't use his left arm to lift things like this. it was a one handed job making it quite an impressive swing. was obviously not used to handling golf clubs.

'specially if it's a blonde bash and he's got pretty plaits

even if we assume you meant he starred in it he's only billed 9th in jerry maguire. hardly starring. did he star in any others?

sigh I have to go for 30 minutes. Believe me i'd rather not. But back soon!

zomg - where has that happened and why has no one pointed it out?

Was it a left-handed club? That'd be even funnier...

WRONG

Shut up you're winning

Message for his Grace



I am knee deep in your Nanny. You gave me the night off and no I will not come back and look at the spreadsheet


See you in the morning

how do I get 4 points for a correct answer that only one other person got? ? ? ? ? ? ?

wtf is going on?

perhaps that's why he's predicting it's retirement....

No they don't they get 18+5=23

FKIN SIGH..!!!!

coz he's doubling scores for sheep answers.  4x sheep answers (2 people each)

Which is why I don't want it running next week. Good work your Lordship!

here is a better one..!!!

THIS

coz those are the rules as set out in the OP.

Seem very defensive on QM's behalf. Been tipped the wink re outcome? Eh? Eh? EH???

an op that was last edited today. it didn't have that shit in it when I last read it

+1

Independent thinking for the win please Claw. Supine acceptance of the bosses rules is how the Upper classes ruined the empire.

ffs! 6 points for an answer only 2 other people put. you can't just go changing the scoring rules like that. fking farce.

Can we start again? I am sure we can rescue this

Objection Bob Geldof is not a true KBE as he is irish and unlike Terry Wogan would not take British citizenship

How much will a forensic investigator charge to determine the winner?

Well played.

del, could you explain this question please. I passed as it confused me. have since googled and still can't find out what a knight of the british empire is

Del,
why not change it so that the sheep gets triple or quadruple even?  Just so that the donkey answer have a chance of winning the quiz..!

I'll do it for a tenner.

and determining the winner?

is it the same as a knight commander which does seem to exist or is it something else?

I'd heard that.

Not having Columbo doing it.  Could you imagine:

"Just one more question..."

NO BUGGER OFF!

glad you put that.  was just about to object to old bob on basis he's irish then realised tezza is too so kept schtum.  presuming you know what you're on about, seconded :D

£17.50 job lot

I thought it was a trick question too.  The trick was in the fact that there doesn't appear to be a correct answer, and so anything goes. 

fuck it. objection as there's no such thing as a knight of the british empire

FYL

isn't it someone who's got a KBE rather than any other kind of knighthood? 

Yes

who fancies a beer

No idea.  That's why I passed.

You're a knight if you've been knighted

Geldof is an honorary knight - he's not a 'sir' but he's still a knight

rotflmfao

Farce a yes answer to two questions

Yes to which question?

Answering FAIL

sigh - you too Jack? If 'claw75' is the sheep answer for question 13 i'm gonna sulk.

Arise Sir Delboy, KRSQ.

What's the record for most replies on an RSQ? It's gonna be smashed whatever.

yep Wiki is the truest source since Custer was told that his commader had googled "any indians up that valley"

but is he a knight of the british empire?

i was gonna say one of my previous bosses, but as they are all KCB's i thought they'd be a fail

where on that link is knight of the british empire?

This is a good one...

This looks like the best game ever. Am sorry I didn't enter. Can I still enter? Wouldn't make much difference imo.

Nearly halfway everyone, dig in, the end will be in sight by about midnight

Pretty sure a few of us have already had more than a few to be fair.

yes he is, although if it's strictly people with KBE's then I don't think all those answers are passes

OK, I admit i made an error there. what would you like me to turn your score of 0 too?

best get colombo on it then

Q7 anyone?

A Knight of the British Empire is someone who has a KBE and Bob Geldoff has a KBE.  The question did not state an honorary.

ok.  can i change my answer to Sir William Reid and have an ace please?

my pass is obv still a pass

all the others though are clearly fails as you've just admitted your question asked people to name something make believe

I think if you join now, you'll get fails for all the previous questions. That'll put you firmly in front with the current scoring I believe.

No it didn't it just wasn't specific enough

but the best thing to do is admit you've got it wrong but bury your head in the sand and not do anything about it like tighty

or you could man up and start doing things properly. fail everyone, go on you can do it

can we make this a two day event?  COP at 10pm then back at 8.30 tomorrow

the precedent is there Del. Stand behind me, its safe there

Nah, carry on regardless imo.

As the Ashes are on, why not 5 days?

Never been so pleased to enter a sheep.

 rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao

Arguably these could be classed as fails

not specific enough? it was plain wrong. you may as well have said 'name an alien fairy of the french empire' and then just marked any answer correct as long as it wasn't a pass cos the fairies are as real as your knights are

techno, Tighty, mond and Rex might well argue that, think it'll improve their score...

as wogan is not there, I agree.  fail them!!!

Spacefrog?

ffs - my turn to be 5 seconds too slow tonight :(

Derrick. Where is Nicky?


Substitute please

good find nellie.  no redgrave, pinsent or young on there

it's ok - nellie's posted a link, she's in the quiz, new objection

They are fails.

Therefore a neutral observer

I'm just trying to help  ;whistle;

Observe then, and shut up.

I'll update scores after Q7

good work.  are they gonna get less points now?
