The "are we nearly there yet?" RSQ - QUESTIONS UP!

[outragous76]

OK

Back by popular demand I have been coerced into doing an RSQ

I have no idea of the rules, so anyone is in with a chance of winning. If you register your interest before Saturday you get a bonus (minus) point

There are 12 questions.

PM me your answers by Noon on Monday 26th March.

The reveal will take place at 7.30pm  on Tuesday 27th march this thread.


Your score for each question is the number of people who give the same correct answer. The answer most commonly given is called the sheep, with the corresponding sheep score.  If you score the only ACE (an ace being a correct answer which no-one else submits) in any round, you will receive  1 point for that round.

You are not allowed to do research such as Google searches to come up with answers, and you are not allowed to ask others for help with your answers.  Remember, you are only cheating yourself (and your illustrious peers).

If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive the sheep score + 5 points

You MUST pass on one, and only one, question and you will receive a score of 0 for that question.


Objections will be considered during the reveal but I will try to keep the process short and as painless as possible.


The lowest aggregate score after the 12 rounds will win. In the event of a tie a quick fire tie breaker will be ultised

1. Name a material used in commercial construction (this must be a complete/finished material, so for example sand would not be accepted as it is a component of something else)
2. Name a newspaper printed at least 5x per week
3. Name a formula 1 team in the 2012 Championship (sponsor name not required).
4. Name one of the girls mentioned in the song "Mambo No. 5"
5. Name a music act to have a number 1 in 1996
6. Name a poker player with a HMDB entry who lives in Leeds and has a blonde account
7. Name a property in Monopoly to which you can add a house or hotel
8. Name a Grand National winner since 1992 (incl)
9. Name a premiership football ground
10. Name a vodka
11. Name a French fashion, perfume or makeup house
12. Name a letter of the alphabet not utilized in this question?  (your score will be added to its scrabble value)




This is one of the rules and will be rigourously enforced!

You are not allowed to do research such as Google searches to come up with answers, and you are not allowed to ask others for help with your answers.  Remember, you are only cheating yourself (and your illustrious peers).
