What a clever lot playing today, I got 10/10 and I'm in 9th place. Just had a look at the final result. Finishedin 11th place with 3 pts, fastest player got 14. I think that just about settles it, not so much a quiz, more of a speed test. (stumbles off to Library looking for Speed Reading for Dummies)

And since the questions repeat themselves after a while, eventually you would only have to read the answers.

Celebrities Quizzes.
Although I got 9 correct today, I must admit at least half were lucky guesses. I had never even heard of some of them, and can only conclude that anyone who actually "KNOWS" all the answers must be,
(A) totally obsessed with TV and Movies. (B) see phoney's previous post.

Guess which Trivia Game I prefer. ;D
Game 1-Score 10/10 ... time 134secs ...8th place ... 8pts.
Game 2-Score 10/10 ... time 145secs ...2nd place ... 13pts.
Yep, Game 2 is definitely the place for this old slow-coach. ;D

Googling my nickname I find that I am on Twitter (wrong) I'm a spiritual healer (wrong) I'm the ultimate professional (errrrrrm) I have a Youtube channel (nope) I know about marlin fishing (what's a marlin?) I'm a singer and entertainer (so why ain't I rich?)

No point in googling phoney. But my real name only brings up 7/8 results for me and a few hundred for people with the same christian and surname. I did wade through them all.

Only 3 people have played every day for May and there are only 3 days left. Nocky is safe as the winner of Game 2, but Game 1 is very tight. Only one point between Ist and 2nd. Is Roz going to grab the lead in the final few days. Can phoney hold her off. The excitment is palpable. Not sure if winning when only 3 players complete the month, and angelstardust took a week off actually means anything, but it is fun.

Post by nocky2 on May 29, 2009 9:54:14 GMT
I fully agree phoney. With good players like Angel, Webby, and Fozzie, only there for part of the month, it does detract something from the pleasure of winning.
It is good fun though, and I always feel better after my usual daily whinge. ;D

Lol Phoney, Yes it's pretty neck and neck at the top isn't it lol? This is the only time ever I have been so close for so long, but as you rightly point out it's only because of playing every day, and the good players not doing.
It still might be you who wins it too Nocky. I think that would likely make you the only one to win both in one month apart from Angel.

Very strong finish by Roz destroys phoneys hopes of a monthly win in Game 1. Gutted!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done Roz and Nocky. I'm sure Lynnrose will immortalise you with a monthly winners post later on.

Well done Nocky for game 2. I'm going to take a screenshot of game 1, because it'll never happen again, but I'm thrilled to bits lol. It was touch and go all the way Phoney, and could certainly have been either of us, your turn next lol.

Congratulations to you too Roz,
Makes a change to see two new names on top, although I imagine we'll have to wait till Angel goes on holiday again to get a repeat. Maybe we should start a fund, "More Holidays For Angelstardust". ;D
Hard luck phoney, that was a real exciting last few days in Game 1.

Post by Angelstardust on Jun 2, 2009 11:44:37 GMT
I'm flattered. If you want to send me on holiday, it costs £500 to send me to America. Lol.
I'm only seen as being good at these things because I do a lot of them every day and I'm consistent; it helps if I have good categories as well.
