I LOL'd 

Good excuse for this smiley too - needs more love

 

Respect to Rod today - 34s is going to be tough to beat. I got some unfortunately long-winded questions and only managed 38s with one lucky guess .

Lets get a few more entries in, get AndrewT out the top 10, and I'll go back to the top of the leaderboard

Yay I'm 3rd!!!

10/10 for the first time and only 2 guesses.

Just one thing. 37 seconds? HOW??

It's almost easier to read the answers first, and then skim for keywords in the question.

And get lucky with shortish questions .

Oh, and use the mouse wheel to scroll, not the scroll bars obv.

Bit better today - relatively easy though. 10/10 37s.

Justice! Just need AndrewT to have a bad day


BTW: It's only 42 days until Talk Like A Pirate Day. Just thought I'd throw that in there.

I got two football questions. Both of which I got wrong. It's a stupid sport anyway .

Unlikely? Too right!
Flopped set. Villain flopped full house
First hand FFS!

Off to DTD

If computer had actually registered my click, I'd have beaten you by 1 second.

 

Not that I'm competitive or anything 

Dr. Jocelyn Elders held which official position?

****** ******** ***** **** ****** yanks.

Did you not know that one? Amazingly, I'd actually heard of her.

I managed to misclick - apparently I didn't give an answer to one question when I plainly did (the easiest question on there). So I got 9 really. Computer says no. Just waiting for AndrewT to come along and win it again. Sigh. I'm off the top of the monthly leaderboard and not likely to get back up there.

And I've been beaten by boldie. I've never met him, but by all accounts that just shouldn't happen .

1. AndrewT     + 6 pts    10!   38   962
2. rex008    + 5 pts    10!   70   930

FFS  . You obviously didn't get the psychology question.

I'm back in my rightful place

Although "Harder" is definitely so. 10/10 70 seconds, so unfortunately beatable. And AndrewT is only 7 points behind on the league table now after my disaster yesterday.
Then again, about 30 of those seconds was spent reading this question:
10. You point out to the psychologist you are seeing for trivia addiction that, in response to your spouse's complaints, you have reduced your trivial involvement to a level that your spouse deems acceptable. What does he conclude from this?

1. A long answer
2. A 2 sentence answer
3. A one sentence answer but 2 lines long
4. An answer with words in it I've never even heard before

Bit harsh in a timed quiz I thought

Bugger. Go from a win yesterday to 8/10 today. American President guessed wrong, and a trick question that turned out not to be. Oh well.

I just wish I could translate my trivia skills into poker skills 

SHIPPPPPPPPPPPPPP ... lets hope Tighty or AndrewT forget to play today

Thanks for the reminder 2nd place boy.

Make that 4th.

5th.

And I want a ruling on why I'm second with same points as Kin?

Pastafarians ftw!

The end of the pier services ferry/hovercraft across the solent (IIRC), hence luggage.

The original article was saying that with a "gold card" you could then get discounts on lots of other stuff. You can buy this ticket from Esplanade to Pier End without even setting foot on the Isle of Wight for the entire year.
