    Bollocks - so did I. :rage:
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Here we go again!

    You may wonder why I link to the 'Scores & Statistics' page. It's so nobody gets caught with the advertisement which makes me (at least) lose a couple of seconds of time!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Bad Guessometer! :(
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    To be only 2 seconds slower than @Anna_Baptist feels like quite an achievement.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Thwarted by my lack of knowledge of Pierce Brosnan whose work I am not a fan of.
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    I got caught by an advert or I might have beat @Anna_Baptist.
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    I always laugh when 'Murricans refer to military time ...🤣
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    That's better - good Guessometer! :)
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    In first place for the time being. I doubt I will be when @Anna_Baptist turns up, but nice while it lasts specially as I didn't get Wordle this morning.

    Sorry to disappoint: fast but inaccurate.

    I fear my quiz career has peaked for the year.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Just snuck into the top 10 for now! :)

    Happy new year, quizzists! :)

    *&:%^$&!

    First of all it takes forever to load, then it changes what I know I put as a right answer to a wrong one. :rage:

    That's just weird; when I clicked on "check your score" or whatever it is, it said I'd got the last question wrong (which I thought I hadn't), but now if I click on the quiz link it's saying I got 10.

    I do not understand it at all ... :confused:
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    So slow today! Confused by the question setter’s writing…which is, of course, their tactic.

    Thank you! It didn’t help my woefully slow time today - that was all down to me and not the system. 🤦

  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    🤦 read the question 🤦 NOT been awarded…🙄
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Very clever Guessometer! <pat, pat>

    <proffers large dram of Highland Park>
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bluddy iPad! Sat her hitting submit over and over…84 seconds! 🤦
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    My first fat-fingered moment of the year :confounded:
  • TheOrganistTheOrganist Shipmate
    'Murrican cartoon "culture" 😡😡😡
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Fourth place for now - that'll do! :)
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    I am in the Guessometer's good books for once.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'm not - two right guesses changed to wrong ones! :rage:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    Three bad days in a row:

    Completely misread the question.

    On the bright side: it's a fast time :(
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    I got the same one wrong that I always do.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bluddy iPad! Sat here waiting for it to

    They intentionally write the questions badly to trip us up. It’s a sign of poor quiz setting. We all know what the setter’s response would be if we raised the issues, though: it’s frequently a quiz question!
  • jedijudyjedijudy Heaven Host
    Reading the whole thing would have helped!
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Guessometer was on good form for me today.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Another film I’ve never heard of!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Clever Guessometer! :)

    Speed still a bit rubbish; in my defence, the laptop seems to be on a go-even-more slowly-than-usual at the moment, so it's not just me.
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    American brand named drugs! 🙄 Do the question setters not realise there are people from other countries playing?!

    Only one possible answer to that!
    There are definitely days when it feels as if bonus points should be awarded to all those not brought up in the US.
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    I worked in the US for a couple of years and some days it definitely helps.

    But not today 😢
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Me too on the drugs! Plus it is one that I would never have cause to use personally (at least not on the basis stated in the question).
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I wouldn't have known about the drug either before I lived in Canada.
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    @Anna_Baptist if I say I smell blood I'm sure I'll help you out for the next few days :wink:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    10/10 but still bottom of the heap - I do wish my laptop would get its finger out ... :rage:
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    See? What did I tell you?
  • McMaverickMcMaverick Shipmate
    Bluddy iPad did it again! 😡
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Crikey I was rubbish today! :rage:
  • Anna_BaptistAnna_Baptist Shipmate
    @la vie en rouge and @Tree Bee I'm glad I'm in good company today
  • HeavenlyannieHeavenlyannie Shipmate
    Ooh, I have won twice this month, a first for me.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    ******* laptop! :rage:
