The New, New Crew's Quiz

BroJames

No idea on Q9 today, not being a pharmacist. Great help from the Guessometer.

Edited to add linky-link.

Piglet, Circus host

Heavenlyannie

Well, I’m an ex-nurse lecturer and that didn’t help me. Neither did the guessometer.

McMaverick

American pharmaceutical products 🤷🏻‍♀️

agingjb

Well, I'm always going to be 10 seconds, or more, slower than anyone else.

It takes me 10 seconds just to focus on the first question, and click.

I am tempted to try clicking 10 'a' s just to see what my best possible time would be; I am also tempted to cheat.

I shall do neither of these things, but it's not fun any more. Pity.

My apologies, La Vie - I edited a link into Bro James' post without noticing yours ...

In other news, I wouldn't have known the American pharmaceutical question if I hadn't lived in Canada.

la vie en rouge

I always forget that film.

Given political events, it's interesting that hush money came up today.

BroJames

American consumer products. Two I knew or could guess which gave me a 50/50 chance - but no help from the Guessometer.

Signaller

Guessometer rules!

McMaverick

American shampoo 🤷🏻‍♀️🙄

Bollocks - mixed up my Greeks and my Romans again. <brickwall>

Piglet

Bollocks again - wrong judge.

McMaverick

🤦 clicked the wrong answer on the Rome question.

Piglet

Third place - that'll do nicely, for now!

Anna_Baptist

I wanted to wax, but I waned.

Heavenlyannie

Me too.

McMaverick

Today’s quiz was surely designed to slow us down and confuse us!

Signaller

It succeeded perfectly!

la vie en rouge

For reasons unknown, I am in the guessometer's good graces.

TheOrganist

Normal service resumed 🤣

Piglet

Don't worry, @TheOrganist - I'm not far ahead of you!

TheOrganist

@Piglet So I was at Matins rather than Sunday School, what's your excuse?

Yes. Too American this morning.

Priscilla

Amazing - a slow time but 10/10, and top of the list! I’m sure it won’t last ☹️

Quite!

TheOrganist

Animation not my thing.

McMaverick

Dodged the British garment on fire dilemma but it cost me in time!

TheOrganist

'Murrican impoverished vocabulary 😡

Signaller

Shouldn't have overthought it 😡

Piglet

Am v. cross with myself - brainfart on the grammar question ...

Heavenlyannie

Clicked on wrong answer by accident 🙄

McMaverick

The only TV curse I’ve heard of is the Strictly one.

BroJames

A lot of reading today, but the Guessometer was functioning smoothly.

TheOrganist

Damn, got my siblings crossed 😧

TheOrganist

Not sure how that happened, but top of the pile. 😃

jedijudy

Oh dear. The Guessometer is probably going to refuse to help me for a while since I ignored him so badly.

TheOrganist

Slooow 🐌

TheOrganist

😡 Hall of Fame????

Heavenlyannie

I’d only heard of one of the short stories and it clearly wasn’t the one they wanted! Unfortunately, I didn’t know which of the others was correct and the Guessometer wasn’t playing ball.

BroJames

Same!
