blonde poker forum

******************
Ok I put some questions together while the laptop is being rebuilt..!!!
******************

PM me your answers by midnight on Tuesday 5 April.  

Please put RSQ 51 in the subject header and give the corresponding number for each question with each answer.

The reveal will take place at 8pm on Wednesday 6 Apr 2011 on this thread.

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.
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.

Questions...

1) Name a movie with ‘Vegas’ in the title. - Full Name

2) Name a standard chess piece.

Is this the earliest breakdown of a RSQ QM ever?

Pretty sure it is.  Also explains why he's missing from MSN this morning.

I've stickied this thread. You can edit the OP with the questions when they're done. I think it fitting that the thread starts as a complete disaster as I think that's what the actual quiz will be.

what
the
fuck

FYP

It gets worse ffs..!!

I went to PC world, told techguy, need a laptop drive etc.. He takes me to s ection, we choose one, 500gig, same size as mine..   Then I see 1000 gig for a fiver more..  So I say, that will be good, lets have that one..  Got it home, and its a fkin desktop drive, so take it back and now got a 500 gig replacement...  And then...  Its in the computer, its recognised...  I have 3 DVD disks that I made like 1 month ago, which is a set of system recovery disks..  Put in Disk 1... It starts recovery...  Please insert disk 2... Nope, wont recognise it ffs..!!  grrrrr...

That's an odd first question

Struggling to think of an answer.

if you'd used the time you spent typing those 2 posts explaining why you've not posted the questions to actually post the questions then the questions would be posted by now

If I had prepared questions..  I am sort of a bit busy making my lappy rebuild work and not having any joy lol..

I'm confused as to how your drive farce stops you from publishing the RSQ questions when you still have access to the Internet.

ps. sorry for your loss.
pps. get some questions up!

Loving the sympathy in this thread.

:D

Questions done you impatient lot..!! LOL

Reveal states 6th April 2011. Deadline doesn't state a year though

I can already spot a few objections come reveal time :D

Some interesting questions amongst that lot, and some that are ridiculous - but will be fun during the reveal.  I'd back up your hard-drive Carl in case it goes into meltdown again during the reveal.

Intentional - LOL

My laptop gets an automated backup at 4:00am each day on a schduler that backs it up to an external hard disk.  Not worried at losing 1 day of data, in reality, wont really lose too much because my email setting are to leave mail on the pop3 server for 14 days before removing it, so i will not lose any of that.  Just got to hope that the restore works..!!!  Its important because all my business work is on there and its gonna be year end, and VAT qtr end tomorrow too..!!!

Entered.

I've kept a copy of my answers, just in case.

ooooo -  nice answers sir..!! 

I will only answer if you promise me I won't win

Exceedingly answerable and therefore farcical questions!!!

GLGLGLGLGLGLGLGL all

Tikay has a wood about trains.

lol

Have you recd my entry? OP doesn't seem to have been updated. Not been doing RSQ for long but surely you should be updating entries regularly?

Aye, read it, just updated it.  I try to take weekends off..!!  Today was busy.. :)

I have just been compiling the answers into a spreadsheet..!!!  LOL.. ohh there are gonna be some UNHAPPY people at the fails. LOL..!!!

I think I have found a way of answering the questions in a way that ensures I don't win but not pissing off the QM at the same time.

Shogun

Shall I go out tomorrow night?

I don't want to be on thread if I am going to want to jump off a bridge when my answers are failed erroneously.

reveal is Wednesday?

It is.  Tighty suffering from pre-mature revelation.

In

Guess its an age thing?

ps

happy birthday tighty :)

its Weds, but stay in, it will be funny.  I cant do Tuesdays because of a regular thing, thats why I never get to attend the reveals lol

Would it be possible for Tighty to fail a question on sport..!!

In


 but must confess I researched answer 5.....by looking at my keyboard

Good job they were failed correctly last week then.

Not in this quiz no

I am off to find corroboration, bookmark it and lie in wiat, steathily, like a caged cobra

Looking forward to it!

I am going offline for it and switching my mobile off

thank you, and have fun

I wouldn't recommend it tbh. 

Was my 7 minute late entry allowed? Huh? Huh?

Well, if you look at the first post on this thread where I update the entry list, you will see if your name is on there or not?

Wiiiiiiiii im gonna run riot while hes away!!

If he doesn't turn up, you can join me in spite objecting to all of his answers. 

nobody is gonna object...!!

This  needs more love    ;tightend;

Did I win?

You sure will.

My bad, meant to post that on the colouring in competition thread

OK, you're forgiven.  Just don't do it again - and watch you don't go over those lines!

You had a lot of fails sorry..!!!  How long has Hairy Horrace been a Simpsons Character..!!

There were some funny answers in tonights lot..  Watch out for Robert HM LOL

Unlike Robert, the reveal might not be brief!

Are we nearly there yet?  Shall I start early? lol

Feck me I'm early!!!!!!

I'm NEVER early, you should be impressed and give me extra points to make sure I dont feckin win ;o)

xx

Oooo, dunno about givin you extra points, it would be hilarious to see you win lol

Sadist!!!!

Takes seat for the display, feeling quietly confident this week

SHEEP = ACE?

something like that lol

LOL @ the complete lack of understanding on what a sheep answer is

Thats a relatively quiet start - no objections then?  Should I move on?

sigh.  last time we had that question 'leaving las vegas' was an ace, so i stuck with it :(

Obviously lol

Too many people must have thought the same, did not know ws a prev Q tbh..

Good grief, easy life for me...  No need to post the running totals after Q1...  So will move along..!!!

We can see what Hector was thinking off...!!!

Not a lot to object with that

glad he accepted my answer  " Horsey "

OK, moving on to Q3 then lol

Fabulous answer with pawn there. Should be in the RSQ Hall of Fame.

Objection to horsey

seconded

Why?

Because there is no chess piece called horsey.

3rded

...and anyone who said 'Castle' instead of Rook.

Hate to push my luck but as the only ace shouldn't i get minus 1 point?

Investigating

You have that in your rules.  Hector gets -1 for that lone Ace.

Overruled - Official answer was...  "2. The Knight or "Horsey " sits next to  the rook each side of the board

agree

DISAGREE nearly everyone calls it horsey, castle and prawns at home

There wasnt any

Not in MY rules..!! LOL

Objection.

You can't suppy two answers to a question and have the QM pick the correct one.

Yes there is.

QM took the first answer... Overruled...

Ok. Carry on.

I feel a farce brewing

Hector62  2

Did Hector get -1 for that round?

He's hiding.

No - 4

I can post, trip5 is not here

If she's around, completely rude mad woman who abuses me and thinks its fun, I am gone again

Carl, are you attempting to rival Laxie, Trip and whoever else as the most cluless QM the RSQ has ever seen?

Oh that rule was removed - or supposed to be removed from my rules...

Sure isn't in your OP.

she's back

see you later

it is..!!!

What's the point of writing rules and then ignoring them?

« Last Edit: Today at 20:19:27 by Shogun112 »

Carl you can't change the rules mid reveal.

That's ridiculous.

I never wrote the rules, I just stole some rules and made my own variation on a theme :)

this

Shogun is an intelligent man, why does being RSQ QM turn him into an arrogant fuckwit?

I might lock the thread in protest.

No. That's perfectly standard fare from an RSQ QM who is trying to rival Laxie.

we use the birdy chess set at home

Big bird, lady bird ,laddy bird, horsey bird, Owl   and chicken

Except you didn't vary that rule, you included it in your rules.  It was there at the start of the quiz when you set the questions, when people submitted their answers, and when the reveal started.

Ok, reckon its time to move onto the next...  Rules omission my fault but been corrected...  thx for letting me know

No, it hasn't been corrected. hector's score is still 4.

So does Hector get -1 point for that round, as he should?

(http://www.atkmchesssets.com/files/Hunter-chess-set-wht-zm.jpg)We use the crow hunting set

Nooooooooooooo you stay, i'll leave  :(

Truce???   ;surrender; ;surrender; ;surrender;

xx

Nope - it was a rule I never liked - so although I was a tad late, its a removed rule now :)

Don't let them rattle you Sho... stick to your... Guns

If you didn't like the rule, it should have been removed before you started accepting entries.

The fact it's been there for a whole week, and half way through a reveal and only now do you want to remove it is utterly farcical.

Its all gone quiet after Q 3

Also, I think you'll find your ability to do addition is fundamentally flawed.

You failed to correctly add the points some people got in R1 and R2 and come to the correct number.

[X] FAIL

some people are just bad QMs. unfortunate, but not everyone is cut out for the position.

And some people seem to be doing their best to be a bad QM by intentionally doing idiotic things such as changing the rules mid way through for no reason.

Not only have you changed the rules after half-time, you also can't add up.

examples?

Will you be adding/deleting any more rules? Maybe we could be allowed to alter our answers after we have seen other peoples answers?

I did my best last week to bring the RSQ back on track.

I apologise to all for allowing Carl to win.  I should have added a rule at the end that his score is doubled.

Too late to introduce that now?

You want me to do your basic arithmetic for you?

Objection

Itchy is clearly not a fail

Mr Burns clearly not a fail

what ARE you playing at you fool?

spreadsheets did it not me

Objection to Santa's little helper

Hes a dog not a character

and he don't speak

Maybe there's a new rule that points from R1 won't be added to points scored in R2 for some people?

:dontask:

So your Excel skills are fundamentally flawed too?

I'd like to change my answer to Q 3  to the clown. TY

lol just realised those answers were fails. I didn't even notice that. How is Mr Burns a fail but Groundskeeper Willie a pass?

Answers to both...

Mr Burns - he has a Full Name...  Charles Montgomery Burns - see the wiki page - he aint callled Mr. Burns There...
Itchy - is never shown on the Wiki Page as Itchy... ONLY - Itchy & Scratchy.. 

after careful consideration, its just not right...!

Cos Mr Burns' name is Montgomery Burns.

Apparently it's Charles Montgomery Burns - who the F knows that?!??!?!

Wiki Pages has him as Groundskeeper Willie (Even with the S in the middle)

Good idea.  Me too.  Apparently that's a bonus -10 points for both of us under the changing Shogun rules.

erm, Mr Burns is clearly ok but whatever.

But the itchy and scratchy reasoning. LOL. WTF are you smoking?

Have you ever actually watched the simpsons? Can't imagine why you'd need to be consulting a wiki over this.

why have i been failed on the simpsons question please?

William McDougal would be his full name imo.

Itchy should be an ace IMO. Itchy and Scratchy are 2 different characters. One's a mouse, one's a pussy.

So would Spider pig have counted as a character

Never watched it, hate it even, which is why I have to use the Wiki pages to be the source of my answers :)

SO for some characters a nickname is ok, but for others it's not?

New rule?

By your logic objection to Apu. Full name as given on the programme is Apu Nahasapeemapetilon.

Yours just plain never existed at all..!!

Its listed as Apu on wiki

eh?

what's the teachers name then?

If Mr Burns is a fail, which obv it isn't, groundskeeper willie would be too

Completely fallacious logic to fail one but theoretically allow the other

and now I am involved in the thread but how can I not be with such stupidly from this QM?

A travesty, and we cannot expect RSQ to survive much longer in the face of these clowns

What about William McDougal?

No idea, maybe someone else can help with that

Well done Carl - a fine QM in the making - adaptable, flexible. Well done.

oh i see - it's a very harsh spelling fail :(

booooooo

Carl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundskeeper_Willie

It's William McDougal

stop being suck a suck up you git.

Fucking thread.

It's Edna Krabappel

I think i will just have to stick to playing Blonde people on the countdown site. At  least those rules stay the same throughout the game.

Whats the proper name then?

mrs krabappel - but you'd probably fail that anyway as i didn't put her first name, even though everyone calls her 'mrs'

this may not be the best sheep quiz,, but its certainly the funniest, lol

same principle as mr burns isn't it?

both are fine, but he's failed mr burns for some unfathomable reason. He even hates the show!!

;bump;

Yes Claire, I never knew to seacrh with the K, but, as you say, failed for the same reason Mr thingy was failed.. :)

ridic

here is the page I used...  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_characters_in_The_Simpsons

i'm gonna tell hannah she's not to call her teacher miss weatherby anymore coz her name is kate weatherby

Carl

Laxie

Rude Trip5

Delboy

You have three RSQ bullets, who do you save?

On that Wiki page, called him Groundskeeper Willie...  So that is why I have accepted it...

So my sole sheep answer gets 1 point instead of -1 and my Mr Burns gets failed and other similar answers don't. Have i done something in the past to upset you?

So?

Who cares how someone on wikipedia has listed them?

Everyone on here except you watches the simpsons.

We're telling you they're passes.

There's bad QMing and there's just trying to ruin the RSQ and make people not want to bother anymore. Sort it out.

Oh dear - mods removing my posts... ah well

ROTFLMFAO

Carl, the Simpsons objections are by no means resolved

You don't watch the programme!

Itchy and Mr Burns and Mrs Krappapel are pefectly fine

Fix the simpsons answers. Seriously, it's beyond a joke. What's the point of entering the quizes if it's just gonna be like this.

You never even entered LOL

obv   rotflmfao

I am moving onto the next question, I will post the running scores and the next answers, and if removed we stop there..!!

i'm stopping here anyway - gonna concentrate on the poker!

Not sure why any of us bothered.

there is another list of all the celebrity guests who have been on Simpsons

Would Simon Cowell have been right ??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_guest_stars_on_The_Simpsons

I know. And I'm glad I didn't.

These are supposed to be fun. People being failed for no reason whatsoever isn't fun. We've objected to your marking. Told you why it is wrong. Everyone here agrees it is wrong. So fix it.

No

OBJECTION

one sec

Firmin Lambot 1922?

Supernova, I thought better of you


the rest I knew, so google is questionable imo

You did, but...

I was also thinking google too...  but.. I dont know this person, so he/she might be a TDF specialist..??

Doubt it, fail em, if they protest, consider reinstating.

Supernova is a she. I don't know if her TDF knowledge goes to 1922 but I would be sorely tempted to shoot now and ask questions later.

I cant say for sure googling, so have to accept it..!!

just preparing my ten sausage questions If I win this

Of course you can't say for sure, unless you have installed a keylogger on everyone's PCs.

What are the wrong scores anyway?

With regards to the simpsons questions, I will carry on and IF at the end, I adjust the scores I adjust the last one only or it will take me ages... lol

Does anyone know an armourer so we can re-stock on ammo?

while u mention that..(was watching the footie)  why is Chief Wiggum a fail???

I knew this was the reason.  A flawed spreadsheet has spawned a flawed QM.

Probably listed as Clancy Wiggum on wikipedia.

Clearly a technophobe incapable of flexible thinking

Clancy Wiggum was accepted.

As it's all so hard for you i shall keep my own score. After 4 questions it's 6.

Yup sigh.

My spreadsheet is good and easy to edit scores. Hell, I scored on the fly using it. No precompiling!

I'm tempted to make it public domain.

How do you get the numbers in it? do you Pokemon ?

:D

All those possible answers and only 3 aces..!!

OBJECTION

The_duke   U   1


U is a vowel

How do you get pikachu on a bus?

OOOO - Let me check..!!!

But why was that accepted rather than Chief wiggum?   Everyone knows the Character as Cheif and not clancy......people in the show refer to him as Chief Wiggum..the simpson credits themselves state Chief Wiggum.

Or would you except Barthoeleuw (spelling crap i know) rather than Bart?

Seconded!!!

same way!
so 1990's

I just wanted to make sure that Ger's answer was in fact U...  And it is...  Instead of 1 point ace.. Now 11 point fail...

My score after 5 questions is 9.

Just logged on - Mr Burns is referred to as "Mr Burns in all Simpson's episodes!!!

Do I get penalised for the incorrect spelling or the incorrect continent ???

?  Is this an objection?

we are well past there now Nellie, dealing with it later

No. What would be the point of that?

You named a place in Africa..!!

Claw a countdown game lasts about 15 mins. You will have trouble working out how to do the numbers round though- it took me 5 or 6 games to understand it.

I'm ok with that one, but some of the others are ridiculously googled answers.

I was aware I hadn't objected to a TightEnd answer yet. Seemed as good a time as any.

Its a very close game, who knows what could happen after the last 4 questions..!!

ignore, nothing to see here except usual letter dyslexia

Well judging by wat has happened so far... absolutely anything!

Spelt differently...  2 different real places..

One borders Brazil and one is in Africa LOL

After 6 rounds my score is 10.

That would help I guess :)  Objection withdrawn

Who cares?  The scoring is a farce, so maybe Tikay will win in a sensational final round.

Romeo and Juliet seem like they should get 1 pt each.

That said, you often see their names written together so I can see why you've whaled.

Corrected

objection

India a girls name

Girgy85   India   12   

Why is Girgy's India a fail?

After round 7 my score is 12.

Porn stars names not allowed..!!!

and...  its not "Typical"...  :)

eg http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=112990

eg, the voice over woman on masterchef is called india fisher

And Romeo is a typical name?

WTF?  How is it not 'typical'?

I know more people called India than I do Romeo or Oscar.

its pretty common you complete berk

Some rich twats ex manc kid is called that, loads of kids called that now

The only Oscar I know is a dog!

The only Oscar I know is a takeaway

Hands up who thinks I should change girgy to an ace?

Anyone with more than one brain cell thinks you should. That's what logic states.

The fact it's Girgy's answer muddies the waters a bit

Ace for sure

yep

lol no win situation

The fact that it's Girgy's dictates that you double the score for objecting...

I think Hector deserves a -1 for an answer earlier on...

India is an ace.

OK...  instead of 12 points for Girgy, 1 point...

After 8 rounds my score is now 12.

HECTOR HECTOR HECTOR

No Objections,!!!  thats Odd..!!!

Objection. 

Balsa is used to make dowel, commonly used in furniture manufacturing.

Dowels are not made of Balsa..

Objection to MDF

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=balsa+dowels

calling RSPB now cruelty to  birds , lol

and MDF is not wood , ever seen an MDF tree

Model aircraft are often made of balsa..!!  Dowels are made of  much harder cheap wood

Yeah, I don't like MDF either. I'm no wood/furniture expert but it sounds wrong to me.

MDF is not a wood ffs!!

Objection overruled..  Often painted furniture is made of MDF and painted over...  Very popular these days

It is predominently wood

After 9 rounds my score is now 13.

mdf is not a pure wood though!

Is it wood?

No it's medium density fibreboard.

LOL

Hopefully a worthy winner

Questions ready?

Made from wood fibre

Of course MDF is used in making furniture, what is in dispute is that it is not a "type of wood".

 It is however possible that your brain lagely consists of MDF.

That is the same as saying Mr Burns is not in the Simpsons! 

and wax and resin.

If someone had said paper - would you have said it's correct?

Utter farce.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

MDF is manufactured from wood sawdust and adhesives etc... because the wood is sawdust, does not mean it aint wood any more..!!!

(http://www.vinmag.com/online/media/gbu0/prodlg/TVHE1.jpg)

good god...a furniture salesman who's as crooked as a used car salesman.  mdf sure is a type of wood.

Too late , we've arrived at RSQ hell already

LOL - so paper would have been a correct answer too?  Or charcoal.

Actually, plastic would have been a correct answer too.  It was once wood, but it became oil over thousands of years, was extracted and turned into plastic.

Still wood though!!

 rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao

A furniture salesman who's as thick as two short planks.

My final score is 14 points. What about anyone else?

No Objections?

LOL

Yess Objection my answer is Alloa Athletic

That's sorted then

To you as a QM?

Plenty.

And...  It does not start and end with the same letter..

A great win, well played

Yeh Im not worried about winning (not that it'll happen) cos apparantly you can just say "Yep that's right" and carry on

Sorry, but that makes it still a fail.  DUCY?

Are u saying that to me or Crow?

So, before I decide on the SImpsons...  I will not post the final scores, and, there is a 3 way tie for first...

    UTTER FARCE UTTER FARCE UTTER FARCE UTTER FARCE UTTER FARCE

ffs not more just finish the thing

whoever tied has not QMed before does it

enough of this Stygian hell

yeah OK

Nobody likes sausage questions anyway

3 people on 14?

Hector wins please

both Vince and I have done it before

You've got everything else wrong, you worry about that.  This was directed at the feathered one.

A historic RSQ

one of the best ( I have finished in )

went out on the bubble question

OK,
if I bothered to change the Simpsons answer, the only Key change would be Hector gaining 5 points that makes difference at the top...  Hector, you win.  I cant be arsed messing with the final scores..

FYP

Of course, I was always gonna do this, it was just comedy going through it all LOL

Well done Hector on 14 points (obv 2 gain for the rule change on Q1) lol

A farce is not always a comedy.

Was for me this time lol...

Well done Hector and ty for surpassing my genius Carl!!! 

Oh
My

I'd like to post a late objection to all the farceness I missed last night.

Viva Rock Vegas is a movie and therefore an ace.

I'll have you know I made a big effort googling for at least 30 seconds here Tighty! It was well worth the effort if it was so obscure even you didn't know! 1922  was a great memorable year in my ancestry as it goes and the guy had an easy name to remember too, so I was happy with that one.
