Sorry I am a bit late getting this up.....giving a fair bit of extra time for entries etc on that basis.
Reveal Tuesday 27th September at 7pm. Deadline for answers 12pm on that day.
Lowest score wins. Points for each question is the amount of people who gave the same answer. So you want unique correct answers.
Most common answer is called the sheep.
Incorrect answers score the sheep + 5.
You have 1 pass which you may use if you wish. You score 0 for that question.
No using google etc.
Challenges/Objections to answers allowed/failed to be made on the night of the reveal. All will be considered but the QMs say is final!
Answers to me via pm. Good luck!
1. Name a Vice President of the USA since 1970.
2. Name an independent state in the Caribbean (must have declared independence or always been independent)
3. Name a winner (male or female) of 'Rear of the year' competition
4. Name an artist or singer that has been top of the British singles chart for four weeks or more with one or more singles.
5. Name a TV show that originally aired on HBO.
6. Name an author that has won the Booker prize
7. Pick one of these flags at the bottom and say which country it is from
8. Out of the sporting trophies named below pick one and say which sport it is won in:
a) Stanley Cup
b) Hardaker trophy
c) Lombardi Trophy
d) Calcutta Cup
e) Heisman Trophy
f) Challenge Cup
g) Cy Young Award
h) Millenium Trophy
9. Name a city which has hosted the Summer Olympics

3 questions i can't answer and 1 question that having re-read it several times, I don't think there is a correct answer to. Therefore I am OUT again.

Pretty tough this week.
On first glance i've got no clue bout a couple of these (there's such a thing as "Rear of the Year"? Officially!?) and thats before I even think about Q.10, so i'm prolly gonna give this the wide un!

Flag and trophy questions could've been so much better.
When will people finally get the idea of these quizzes?
Stick the union jack, france, and a couple of other obvious ones in there for the flags,
Put the ryder cup and the FA cup in the trophies one.
It doesn't matter if they're ridiculously easy. That just means that everyone can play.
Couple of piss easy answers, half a dozen that some might know and a couple of nigh on impossible answers and you're about there.

i would imagine there are a few that could be correct answers for both questions 3 and 4. |
