Could you explain Q11 please?
each item is either/or answer and we have to suggest which will be the answer with the lowest incidence, fridge or cupboard?
Seems an odd question for a quiz format that requires multiple possible answers to work most efficiently?

This. And I was wondering for question 5, could you just pick a country with one vowel in it or is that not allowed?

Q6 doesn't say whether it actually has to be a casino table game. We just have to give one a name. So possible answers include:
- Snuggle up - Crumpled Bugle - Otter Whack - Spin the Static - Domiplunk
You get the idea.
It's like you've actually tried to mess the questions up.
I don't say this often/ever, but could we get smashedagain on day release for this quiz, just to highlight how bad it is?
Will be in when I've recovered from shock.

I am trying to follow ruud's effort at having a somewhat random final question. Also any: 1 vowel is fine as its obviously in order. A lot of answers to this question. Tal: It should be obvious what I'm after. The current entrants have all understood

Certainly dug a hole for yourself with this question - that is if you hadn't already with some of the earlier ambiguous questions.

Tal: It should be obvious what I'm after. The current entrants have all understood  But my random question had around 40 correct answers! Yours is literally 50/50, or is it? Are u scoring the answer as a whole?! So for example, FFCC is a different answer to FCFC?! Therefore there are 16 possible answers?! If this is what u meant, very clever! If not, enjoy the get out of jail card I just handed you
