RSQ - A Ruud Awakening

Lol. QM fail again. Question is ambiguous but tries to disallow answers that don't fit in to what he wanted to ask.

you are so miserable and precious about this whole RSQ endeavour aren't you?!

I'm sorry, I luckboxed the second one I entered. Those two both had this format so I followed it. I got a couple of bits of wording wrong. It was pretty obvious what I meant to ask.

Again, sorry, but I tried.

What's up with my answer then? Why's it a fail?

cos it's a constituent country..... yep, just like England and Scotland.

But you're miserable, so you get a FAIL.

QM's prerogative

Why bother with objections and any of the hassle if you're going to answer correct answers as incorrect? Just mark them randomly and the reveal could be over in ten minutes.

you're right, if I accept England and Scotland, I must accept your answer. You and Tal get 2 points each.

Should have stuck to my guns earlier.

But seriously, try a smile. We don't all know ALL the customs of RSQ. Some of us haven't been around as long as others.

Cherry picking Wikipedia pages then?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cura%C3%A7ao

I read this...

Curaçao ( /ˈkʊərəsaʊ/; Dutch: Curaçao;[4][5] Papiamentu: Kòrsou) is an island in the southern Caribbean Sea, off the Venezuelan coast. The Country of Curaçao (Dutch: Land Curaçao,[6] Papiamentu: Pais Kòrsou[7]), which includes the main island plus the small, uninhabited island of Klein Curaçao ("Little Curaçao"), is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Its capital is Willemstad.

Needs updating then, as the Netherlands Antilles hasn't existed since 2010.

But that paragraph does mention a country of Curacao though...

And finally:

15) Picture Round. Pick a type of panties.

In the same way that England is a country but not by the UN definition.

But if it's out of date it doesn't matter anyway

Sorry, was only having fun. It's traditional in the RSQ to abuse the QM. Will lay off now. At least your questions were decent.

no probs, peace.

Good quiz

Had the potential to be a strict and fair QM but caved under the pressure for the countries. Never mind though, makes it a bit more unpredictable

[Tal]

OK. Well done, DMorgan and thanks, ruud.

Was a fair and perfectly valid objection!!!

England, and to a lesser extent Scotland are indeed countries

Good Job QM

Run worse DMorgan

[Cf]

If DMorgan is agreeable I have a quiz I would like to run.

It's not an RSQ but it's a similar idea. Similar to how Tighty ran a pointless quiz, but the format of mine is going to be slightly different.

[DMorgan]

Siiiiigh, will post my RSQ tonight

Cf, I'm prepared to cut a deal. If you win, you can post your quiz

Thanks for running this one Ruud
