Title: RSQ 75 - Farcen your seatbelts
Post by: DMorgan on September 07, 2011, 03:46:30 PM
Reveal Monday 12th September at 7pm GMT. Answers accepted until 1 hour before the reveal.

Lowest score wins. Points for each question is the amount of people who gave the same answer. So you want unique correct answers.



Most common answer is called the sheep.

Incorrect answers score the sheep + 5.

You have 1 pass which must be used. You score 0 for that question.

No using google etc.

Challenges/Objections to answers allowed/failed to be made on the night of the reveal. All will be considered but the QMs say is final!

Answers to me via pm. Good luck!

1. Name a British Prime Minister that served under George VI or Elizabeth II

2. Name a version of Windows released after 1994

3. Name a PLC that was or is currently listed on the FTSE100

4. Name a US State Capital

5. Name a discipline that appears in the Mens Olymic Decathlon

6. Name a film that is in the top 50 highest grossing movies of all time (not adjusted for inflation)

7. Name an artist that has had an official UK top 40 number one single in 2011

8. Pick one of the following airport codes and tell me which European city this

airport serves.

ABZ
BFS
FAO
IBZ
LCY
NCE
TLL
WAW


9. Name one of the twelve classic Olympian greek gods/godesses

10. Name a flavour of Walkers crisps currently on sale in the UK (no specials, limited editions etc)

Just can't get the help these days.  Ever since Kin got promoted from tea boy duties the power's gone to his head.  Vinny is just plain useless unless he's deleting something.  And the rest - don't even get me started.

Put it back another month to get more entrants. What's happened to boshi and prewdy pants. Kind of little bit ( and it is only a very little bit ) feel bad about accusing em of reading our pm'd answers and then using google.

Sort of understand why Rob Yong dint wanna enter Dans quiz but almost everyone else gets on with Dan ;)


Title: Re: RSQ 75 - Farcen your seatbelts
Post by: DMorgan on September 12, 2011, 06:23:26 PM
Haha would've been hilarious if Rob had entered. I guess RSQs are dying and I joined the bandwagon too late :(

Oh well, reveal in half an hour even if its only us two jase!

yes. if i ever win one of these my worse nightmare would be having to do the reveal even without objections. i would have to just do a sheep quiz then no one could argue and that finding the winner who scored most sheep wins. simple
