The Rules

There are 10 questions.

PM me your answers by 23:59 Monday 13 December.  The subject line should be RSQ EPISODE 25 - ANSWERS, and please give each answer on a SEPARATE line with corresponding question number.

The reveal will take place at 19:45 Tuesday 14 December.

Your score for each question is number of people who give the same correct answer. So you want to go for answers that you think will be less commonly given. Levelling commonly happens. The answer most commonly given is called the sheep, with the corresponding sheep score.  If you score the only ACE in any round, you will receive MINUS 1 points for that round.  So a solitary ace for a round scores better than a pass.

You are not allowed to do research such as Google searches to come up with answers, and you're not allowed to ask others for help with your answers.  Those who do will be spotted by the other contestants and no doubt pointed out.  Punishment will be dealt to those deemed cheating.  I will be the judge, but a jury of your peers might be drafted in to decide guilt or innocence.

If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive 10 points (or one more point than the highest scoring correct answer if this scores 10 or more).

You MUST pass on one, and only one, question and score a 0 for that question.

Any questions, post in this thread. If it's a stupid question, expect a stupid answer.

Spelling mistakes will be treated according to their severity and may invoke a penalty.

Objections are allowed, but a source must be provided with the INITIAL objection, otherwise subsequent evidence will most probably be deemed inadmissible and your case will be thrown out.

Your house is at risk if you do not keep up payments on any loans secured against it.

If a previous winner is victorious they will nominate the next QM - and this will be a virgin QM.

Please read the rules, and re-read them.  Ignorance of the rules will not be an acceptable excuse for farcical objections or questions, and the judge (and jury if necessary) will be called upon to determine guilt and the punishment.

Lowest score after the 10 rounds will win.  In the case of a tie, the person with the most posts will win.  If there is still a tie, the first to post will win - DUCY?

Q1

Here are 11 images that are (or were) the logos (or part of the logos) for an organisation/company/brand/product.  Please select one of the logos and give the organisation and the number next to the image.

For example:

Q3

According to the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas" my true love gave me all sorts of shit as presents.  Name one of these presents and how many of that present I received according to the traditional English version of the song that appears in The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes.  Foreign versions will not be accepted, even if you are foreign, or stupid, or both.

For example:

13 Scandies 5-betting

Q5

Below are the photos of 12 men and 12 women.  Simply give the name of a man and woman from the photos below to make a 'famous couple' (either current, past, rumoured or on-screen between their characters)

For example:

13. Tikay & M. Michelle Orpe











Q6


There are seven days in the week.  Name one of these days in either French, German or Japanese.  Bonus point if you can do it in all three (and not use Google).

Rubbish questions - a disturbing lack of farce.

I shall enter though, feeling confident that farce is an emergent property of RSQ.
