    I got the same!

    @Doone Same here 😨
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Scramble your brain here.
  • DooneDoone Shipmate
    You’ve all cheered me somewhat 😉!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I managed sixth place even though I got two wrong (bad Murcan guessing).
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Not often I'm first off the bat! :)
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    And how unfortunate for me as we have the same score!
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Oh the shame. Don't tell my Baptist Sunday school I got that wrong :blush:

    (Would have got it right on a larger screen)
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    It’s all right @la vie en rouge, unless you tell us we’ll never know what you got wrong.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'm an idiot - I didn't read the answers carefully in the mallet question, and didn't notice that the right answer was there.

    brainless piglet

    My immediate answer for the bell(e)s question wasn't listed.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Neither was mine - I think we're on the same wavelength ... :mrgreen:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Changed a right to a wrong again ... :rage:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    I’m no good at pop music stuff, and the Guessometer didn’t help either.
  • questioningquestioning Shipmate
    ditto
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Not so good today on the contents of the deutero-canonicals/apocrypha.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Same here, Bro James!
  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    Lucky guess with the cartoon characters today in Q1. Never heard of them before.
    Common spelling mistake for the politician in Q10. It's a bit off-putting if you think they are trying to deliberately lead you astray.
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Someone has to be on the bottom.
    *sigh*
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Not very good on 30 year old films today.

    I failed to read a couple properly as well as not knowing the actors.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Crikey - second place even though I took 45 seconds! :smiley:
  • DooneDoone Shipmate
    I shouldn’t have bothered today 🤣!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    I question one "correct" answer.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer missed one of the several I didn’t know.

    Apparently I didn't - I must have forgotten in all the excitement of grocery shopping and laundry ...

    Never mind - I'm temporarily top of the pile today!
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    And I shouldn't have bothered today.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Briefly, I am sure, top of the pile. Sorry @Piglet!

  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I didn't make it into the top ten for May, but I'm off to a reasonably good start in June: 2nd place (for now).
  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    Darn, I suspect alphabetical discrimination. I might have to change my name to Aaron the Aardvark.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    @Jonah the Whale AnnaB had more daily wins.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    And let's not forget the results from March 2019

    1. Jonah_the_Whale (351 points, 7 wins)
    2. Anna_Baptist (351 points, 7 wins)

    Identical points, identical daily wins, but my cetacean friend won the month because they
    scored their seventh win before I did.

    No alphabetism to see here.
  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    I take it back and congratulate Anna heartily. It was a close race.
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    I knew answer they wanted for the question about Tourette's, but it isn't true.

    Indeed!
  • Jonah the WhaleJonah the Whale Shipmate
    Yeah, it's frustrating. You have to read each answer carefully then to make sure it's a mistake rather than a trick question.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Got the wrong actress again, and the bloody thing froze as I hit "submit", so I had to do it again and clocked up a cricket score of a time.

    :rage:

    Now, now, lovely piglet. You and I are shoulder to shoulder- swine & piggie together at last.#10 Q :-(
  • Leorning CnihtLeorning Cniht Shipmate
    Hmm. In my youth, the thing that most often followed "Happy Birthday to You" was "You look like a poo". None of the options presented seem to rhyme.

    I'm honoured to be anywhere near a fellow appreciator of piggies! :smiley:

  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    It’s an odd day when I’m actually more certain of the maths question than the films.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Guessometer working overtime for me today!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    You must have tired it out - it was a complete zilch for me on the film questions.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Sorry about that. You'll zip through today's for a perfect 10, even I managed it!

    Every Sunday, when we do Bible trivia, I'm reminded of this story from one of my aunts.

    She and her youngish (perhaps 8 years old at the time?) son were playing a Bible trivia game. He picked up the question card: "What did Onan spill on the ground?" My aunt knew the answer, but couldn't believe that semen would have been the answer provided, nor did she want to have the long conversation with her son. So... she did some quick thinking back to her KJV days, had the AHA moment, and said "His seed." Son flipped over the card, responded, "Yup," and on they went :lol:

    Yes he must have been really careless whilst re-filling the bird-feeder...
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    Hurrah! Top of the heap, at least for a while.

    I hit a wrong button by mistake 🙄
