Title: SuperWomble's Not So Super Sheep Quiz - entries closed Post by: superwomble on January 11, 2012, 02:34:57 PM I have recovered enough from the shock of winning the last sheep quiz to bang out some questions for one of my own, with a little twist.
10 questions. Well, subjects really, but for the purpose of the quiz we'll call them questions. Answer them all. The answers do not have to be correct (apart from one). Your score for each question is the number of people who gave the same answer. However, for each question I have a favourite. If you get the same answer as my favourite you get 5 bonus points. So a possible 50 bonus points up for grabs without necessarily getting the top answer. In addition, one question has 20 minus points attached to it, if a blatantly insulting wrong answer is given. This might be quite easy to work out ;) Highest score wins. You may use google etc. to help. No asking other participants though. Deadline: Monday 16th Jan 2012, 1:00pm. Reveal: Monday 16th Jan 2012, 7:30pm. Please send answers to me in an un-numbered list in order, eg: answer1 answer2 answer3 etc, etc, etc... as my spreadsheet doesn't like the numbers either! Anyway, the questions: 1. A womble. 2. A footballer who plays for, or who has played for, Wimbledon. 3. A Queen song. 4. A chow mein dish one might order from a Chinese takeaway. 5. A flavour of crisps. 6. A Manchester band. 7. A magician. 8. A non-league football club. 9. A Terry Pratchett novel. 10. A Quentin Tarantino film. Apologies if these have been used in any previous quizzes, I've only been in the last 3 or 4. Good luck :) Current entrants (14): Kev B TightEnd Robert HM Dmorgan George2Loose Claw75 MahogonyVic taximan007 AdamM Redsgirl istrabraq MintTrav sweet potata!

Snuff – 4 points TightEnd taximan007 MintTrav Girgy85 The Colour of Magic – 2 points George2Loose Claw75 Discworld – 2 points Dmorgan MahogonyVic Going Postal – 2 points Kev B Redsgirl Hogfather – 1 point AdamM Interesting Times – 1 point Robert HM The Carpet People – 1 point sweet potata! Unseen Academicals – 1 point istrabraq Bonus answer – Reaper Man. Pratchett’s Discworld books are fantastic, really well written and very, very funny. If you haven’t read any I can highly recommend you give them a try. ‘Reaper Man’ is my favourite – it’s about Death having a holiday from his job and trying to fit in with humans. 0 bonus points awarded.

Shame we didn't get a few more in!
I thought the bonus points would make a nice twist so apologies to those who disagree. Hope some of you liked it! Although they didn't make any difference to the winner...

Title: Re: SuperWomble's Not So Super Sheep Quiz - entries closed, reveal today 7.30pm Post by: Cf on January 16, 2012, 10:02:17 PM I'd have thought The Colour of Magic was the obvious Discworld answer give the recent Colour of Magic/Light Fantastic adaptation.
Reaper Man isn't actually high up on my list of favourite Discworld books. Though I did enjoy the weird organic shopping mall thing at the end :) Title: Re: SuperWomble's Not So Super Sheep Quiz - entries closed, reveal today 7.30pm Post by: Cf on January 16, 2012, 10:03:06 PM Oh and obv to add: best Discworld book...

Not big on football then? This is a wind-up yes? Exactly. I wish i was young enough to not know what you're on about Godammit - I just looked them up on the worldwide web and it turns out that they're not even a non-league team. I thought they were the definitive founding team of the Football League that is now a tiny non-league team, but it seems they have been back in the league for a few years. No wonder no-one else went for them. Not only that, but they are on a world record run. According to Wiki, 'from 1999-2000 to 2010-2011 Accrington Stanley have never finished lower than their previous season's final position', which makes them the only team in the world to improve their league position twelve years in a row.

Lol, I forgot about them being a league club as I was too bothered about getting the milk reference in! They haven't improved their position every year BTW, 10th in 2003/4 and 10th in 2004/5, but still probably the only team in the world to improve OR MAINTAIN their league position twelve years in a row. |
