The "I was aiming for second" RSQ - Pokerpops has a crack at it.

Nobel prize one was a shit question. You worded it badly, as joint winners are those who are named as an entity (such as the anti chemical weapons people, not sure what the organisation's name is), whereas when individuals win it together they are named - individually.

Crap question, and you've penalised people for your crappy QMing.

Farce.

yeah

deffo think all first time QMs should be made to submit their questions to a panel of elders for checking.
Suggest G2L and yourself. Probably should also pay you both a fee to cover your time and expertise too :-)

2nd   ENG    Surinder Sunar   191
3rd   WAL   Dave Colclough   167

Fair point well made but way too late.

Please submit all future issues with any Blonde quiz to Mr George2Loose.

He holds the record for most entrants in a Blonde quiz you know.

Pretty sure I took my son to see a disney pixar movie called Planes last year? It was by the same team as Cars so if Cars is correct, then surely so is Planes?

Thanks for the quiz though.

[Ant040689]

I wouldn't worry David, that was a good quiz. I quite like the different nuances in each person's new quiz and a vetting system may actually make the whole process a little bland and similar?

I like not knowing what to expect. This quiz was tough for me and was giving it my all too, but I will improve in general knowledge. I must!

As I didn't have two passes and had no guessing idea for 2 q's, one answer was facetious. Do not take this as a slight on your quizmastery David.

Good quiz, want moarrrrr.

[George2Loose]

I've since discovered I don't hold the record

I was surprised by this as well

Had a quick google on your behalf and although it was a Cars spin off it was made by Disneytoon studio.
Who'd a thunk.

Hi David 
Sorry I missed yet another reveal, rest assured if I'd have been in I would have happily heckled all the way through 
Turns out I did alright with the sport questions, it was the 'easy' bird question that done me.

Thanks for hosting, and well done jbworldwide. x
