I answered Messi question on football salary, that is what I assumed the question meant. Wasn't stated that non football earnings to be included, so quite ambiguous

wtf at people questioning the Messi question.
Do people even read the questions that closely? Is this where I am going wrong?
I think the Messi question IS VERY CLEAR Scotty. Fk the haters.

I'm no hater but I think if it said how much did he earn rather than how much was he paid then it would be very clear. Paid sounds like a salary, ie paid by Barca to play football. Do you want any more pedantic explanations of my getting slightly confused :-) |

Just added this to my diary, as in future years people won't believe me. 16/4/2020 Tighty made a mistake on a quiz. Still not confident I am going to be closer. |

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

PM'd all entrants the below message. Thanks to everyone who has entered so far, up to 18.
Hi all,
Thanks for entering the quiz, a good number of entries so should be an interesting reveal.
Quite a few people have questioned some of the questions so I am going to clarify some and allow people to resend any individual questions they wish to change.
Apologies for any confusion.
2. This is the Dundee to London question. The question is asking the distance when travelling by road.
4. This is the first price that is shown on the website for an Apple iPhone 8, so I assume is for a general model. Or it may just come in at one price.
8. This is Messi's total earnings (what he has been paid) for 2019 as listed by Forbes so includes all endorsements.
9. This is someone from the UK winning a lottery jackpot. There's no tricks, they aren't from the UK but living in America and won a billion. Standard National Lottery or EuroMillions.
With this in mind I have delayed the reveal until tomorrow at 4pm.

I do understand that there was some ambiguity in a couple of questions so apologies. The Messi one intentional but Dundee-London one not so.
