    25 seconds on a Sunday, and I'm still only fourth.

    Quiz
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Misread the grammar answers 🙄
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    The Guessometer was on form today!
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Yay! Surprised and pleased to be top of the heap yesterday! :blush:
    Today, however...
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Got the film question wrong, as usual. :blush:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Me too. And I was 2 seconds slower than you.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    US films & Tv did for me. The couriers wear a different colour in the U.K. too!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Likewise. Guessometer is struggling with the load, I think.
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    *Pats Guessometer on its intelligent head*
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    The Guessometer was doing brilliantly (I even got a question right about a film I've never seen), but it ran out of juice* on the Pocahontas question and I changed a right guess to a wrong one.

    * or steam, or single malt whisky, or whatever it runs on
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    I think I might have gotten a better time if my phone hadn't tweeted at me just when I clicked on the link. I started to look at the message and had to remind myself to do the silly Quiz! :joy:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    I was sure I hit the right button but clearly not, so got one wrong needlessly 🙁

  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    Congrats once more Anne. I forgot to play one day. If it hadn't been for those pesky kids...
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Changed a right to a wrong when I was pretty certain it was right! 🙄
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    Argh, an answer didn’t show up on an easy quiz!
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Thank you guessometer! Shame I was so slow: listening to the radio at the same time is not a good idea!

    Only one? I am always surprised at how many days I missed when I check at the end of the month. I have no kids, either!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Ouch!

    Hmph! Serves me right for doing the quiz while walking the dog
  • PriscillaPriscilla Shipmate
    One good guess, one not so good.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    😡 One completely fatuous question with a correct answer that isn't wrong, just that all the rest could be correct as well.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    It was rather silly, wasn't it? I made a lucky guess.

    <passes large dram of Highland Park to the Guessometer>
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Thanks ever so much, dyslexia. Rolling my eyes.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Fifth place - that'll do nicely!
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    I see the offensively worded question about Catherine the Great is still doing the rounds.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Should read answers properly before clicking! 🙄 obvious one wrong there.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Bl**dy submit button wouldn't work, so I had to come out and back in to do the quiz again, and racked up a time more like a cricket score.

    :rage:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Couple of lucky guesses today! :)
  • PriscillaPriscilla Shipmate
    Lots of lucky guesses today, so I’m quite happy with 9/10.
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Well. Don't I just feel special. :grimace:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    I'm not a lover of Mexican food 🤮
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Changed a right to a wrong because the lettuce confused me!
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    I got 5, which I think is my record.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    6, SIX. Murcan "culture" in spades 👹
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Yup!
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    :flushed:
    Pats little Guessometer on the head for trying to help.
  • PriscillaPriscilla Shipmate
    7/10, should have been 8, I knew the answer to a question and clicked on the wrong answer ☹️
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    <hands the Guessometer a huge dram of Highland Park. 18-year-old.>

    I reckon about half my answers were guesses, some educated, some not so much.

    It's not often you get into second place with a time of 79 seconds!
  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    I think the Rogue and I had the same problem today. Apparently it took me 2062 seconds. All I can say is it felt more like 30.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    A couple of lucky guesses and one unlucky one today.

    Merry Christmas, quizzists! :)
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Many thanks to Father Christmas for bringing me a Guessometer :smiley:
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    If I had actually read the question, I'd would have been on top for a few minutes! :joy:
  • PriscillaPriscilla Shipmate
    10/10 with 4 or 5 guesses!
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Rather fewer of my guesses were right :grimace:

    We bow down to you, Anna. At least, I do. A smaller bowdown than the cross, the Lord God, Christ and his Gospel, etc. Congrats!

    Well done Anna!

    I always get that question about St. Peter wrong, no matter which answer I give.
    :rage:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Thank you for your kind words Pearl B4 Swine and Piglet. Very sweet of you.

    I am always aware that the secret of my success is turning up and that there are better/quicker players than me.
