Title: RSQ - Let's have some fun... Post by: KarmaDope on February 04, 2014, 09:39:51 PM Rules:
The score for each question is the number of people who give that answer. The most popular answer is the sheep. Incorrect answers receive the sheep score plus 5 points. Lowest score wins. Doing research is not allowed. You may choose to pass on up to two questions and will score 0 points for those questions. You may NOT pass the final two questions. PM your answers to me by 6pm Sunday 9th February. The reveal will then take place at 8pm. Please note that if a question asks for a country I am using the Pointless definition: a sovereign state which is a member of the U.N. Questions: 1. 20 football managers started the 2013/14 Premier League Season. Name a manager that has since been fired or left the club. 2. Name a country that uses the dollar. 3. Name a band that headlined either Download Festival, Reading Festival or Glastonbury in 2013. 4. Name a city in the United States of America that British Airways fly direct to. 5. Name one of the political parties in the UK that have a current, sitting MP. 6. Name a college of the University of Cambridge. 7. Name a Gold Medal winner from Team GB at the 2012 London Olympics. 8. Name a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip that is not owned by either MGM or Caesars Entertainment. 9. There are 9 UK primal cuts of lamb. Name one of them. 10. Name a James Bond novel written by Ian Fleming. 11. There are eleven questions in this quiz. Choose one of them. Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun...

However, for clarification, it is the Barclays Premier League. Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun... Post by: Redsgirl on February 05, 2014, 01:16:03 PM Hardest. Quiz. Everrrrrr.

Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun... Post by: kinboshi on February 06, 2014, 04:51:49 AM Hardest. Quiz. Everrrrrr. sharplea never learns. Q1 isn't quite as bad as the old avenger sevenfold q1 but for someone who doesn't follow football it's pretty much impossible. Think you need to reread the question. It first starts out with a statement, a statement that might actually be completely unrelated to the question that follows. So all you have to do is name any manager who has left a club. Pretty sure that's probably not what sharples meant to ask, but who are we to second guess what he actually meant? We can only answer what is in black and white. Quote 1. 20 football managers started the 2013/14 Premier League Season. Name a manager that has since been fired or left the club. Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun...

I must admit I had to laugh when I saw the "abuse" for the questions. Apart from the first one, ALL of them are alterations/copies of previous RSQ questions! So...Q1. 20 football managers started the 2013/14 Premier League Season. Name a manager that has since been fired or left the club. Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun...

If you ask an Australian what currency they use - the answer will be "the dollar, mate". Same question/answer for the Canadian. I understand your argument, but for the quiz it has to be any item, as I didnt specify in which country my question would be asked. If I was in Canada, the principal item would be the Canadian Dollar. In the UK, if I were to ask our friend Craig about dollars, as a Canadian national he would more than likely think I am referring to the Canadian Dollar. Objection denied, sadly.

There is a difference. I did look for proof that Iraq used a dollar as an official currency but couldnt find any. If you can, let me know.

Sod it, all I can find is petro dollars example but I'm sure dollar and dinar is accepted Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun... Post by: Redsgirl on February 09, 2014, 11:07:51 PM Nooooooooooo! You killed me on the first question, and I object!

Well done David, and thanks (sort of) Sharplea. Title: Re: RSQ - Let's have some fun... Post by: HutchGF on February 10, 2014, 01:01:56 AM Cheers, enjoyed that.
