Title: RSQ 76- there's a FARCE-t time for everything Post by: Skippy on September 28, 2011, 02:12:14 PM The reveal will take place on Monday 3rd October @ 19:30. Answers in by 19:00 on that day please.
Rules as stolen from Kinboshi are: The object is to get the lowest total score. Your score for each question is the number of people who give the same correct answer. The answer most commonly given is called the sheep, with the corresponding sheep score. If you score the only ACE (an ace being a correct answer which no-one else submits) in any round, you will receive MINUS 1 points for that round. So for newbies, you're trying to get unique, correct answers. For Trip5, you're just trying to get correct answers to start with. You are not allowed to do research such as using Google to come up with answers, and you are not allowed to ask others for help with your answers. Remember, you are only cheating yourself (and your illustrious peers). If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive the sheep score + 5 points You MUST pass on one, and only one, question and you will receive a score of 0 for that question. 1. Name an olympic sport OR a sport recognised by the IOC that involves a lake, sea or pool of water. 2. Name a country that borders the Russian Federation 3. Name a museum in London that is funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (hint: most of the big London museums and Art Galleries are a part of this list). London is defined as inside the M25 4. Name a type of Poker you can choose at the Dealer's Choice game at Dusk till Dawn (to clarify- they have a list of games on plastic plaques attached to a keyring- I want a game that is on that list.) 5. Name a city in the UK that has at least one tram line. Not the Croydon Tramlink- I can't be bothered to work out whether any of the bits it goes through counts as a city. 6. Name a full length novel by Jane Austin. It must be available to buy from Penguin Classics and must not be a collection of short stories, or anything that isn’t fiction. 7. Name a casino with a Hotel attached in Las Vegas, Nevada. The hotel must be both open now, and be open for bookings. 8. Name a brand of motorbike you can buy new from a dealer in the UK today (Bike= manual gears, no scooters please) 9. Name a presenter of the Radio 1 weekday breakfast show (someone who was give the job full time- no standins or temporary presenters. You can have half of a double act) 10. There are 5 ways of scoring points in Canadian Football. Name one. (it’s basically the same as American Football, but there is one extra scoring play that American Football doesn’t have.) Thank you for playing, and good luck to you all.

All that link says is that people who do Fin Swimming often do so as a part of Lifesaving. You don't get to have horse riding just cos it's in with Modern Pentathalon, that features a water event. With that brilliant and fool-proof argument, denied. Title: Re: RSQ 76- there's a FARCE-t time for everything Post by: JK on October 03, 2011, 08:05:35 PM Dont make me find proof please...

Title: Re: RSQ 76- there's a FARCE-t time for everything Post by: Skippy on October 03, 2011, 08:53:12 PM 10. There are 5 ways of scoring points in Canadian Football. Name one. (it’s basically the same as American Football, but there is one extra scoring play that American Football doesn’t have.)
Actually, there are probably 6, but it didn't come up, so it doesn't matter. Ways in American Football: Touchdown 6pts 1pt conversion 1pt 2pt conversion 2ps Field Goal 3pts Safety 2pts And the additional one in Canadian Football- Rouge, or single, worth 1pt.

Good job Skippy. JK - DIAGF Title: Re: RSQ 76- there's a FARCE-t time for everything Post by: Longines on October 04, 2011, 06:45:57 AM Sigh, that'll teach me to be on a train during a RSQ.
Objection! My answer to Q6 should have scored 3 not 2 which means Rhino and I tied. And scores in Q10 should be the tiebreaker.... Title: Re: RSQ 76- there's a FARCE-t time for everything Post by: kinboshi on October 04, 2011, 07:19:33 AM Too late for that now...
