You get 5 bonus points if you answer all the questions correctly.

Clearly my bribe money was not high enough. *wrestles DaveRam and Kevin for the wooden spoon in a truly desperate move*

"What irks me most with these things is that some people posting on things like 'Song Facts Game', and 'Name Game', don't bother to take part in something a bit more informative and worthwhile."

They're just fun things to do. Yes they can be a little irritating after a while when you get to many of the same basic thing but those kind of games are quick and don't take alot of time. I "play" them sometimes when I'm bored or no one is replying.
I have nothing against what you're saying or trying to pick a fight but they're just fun in times when there's nothing else to do. But I do appreciate you starting these quizes because they do require some kind of brain function rather than your opinion.

oh i see. How else do you get an odd number of points then. I thought it was 2,4,6 & 10 points

However, the thought of having to do homework (scour the web, etc.) to get the answers just gives me the Willies.

same here, anything on the web could be a lie.

this is off topic but how long will it take me to get to a new level other than a beginning?

harihead · « **Reply #48 on:** March 17, 2008, 01:58:52 AM »

I assume you get an odd number of points if you get a question half right, but I'll let Paul answer that.

I expect to lose hideously. But... the loser gets the wooden spoon. So if I lose, I win!

Go ahead. Count me clever.

If you're refering to your score, I gave you 5 points for only getting half of the final question correct. And you get an extra 5 points if you answer every question correctly.

A few more people have entered. Thanks. Here's the current standings:

Bobber  45
Geoff   45
Harry Lime   45
The End   45
Zipp   45
Harihead   38
Bungalow Bill   36
Beatlemaniac64  36
Maccalennon  33
Fendertele   32
DaveRam   18
Kevin   10
Pauliebear   4

You may PM me any corrections to your answers as long as I receive them before the closing time of that particular round. Round 1 finishes next Sunday 23 March at 12 noon GMT. Just send the corrected answer(s) not the whole thing.

Chris · « **Reply #51 on:** March 17, 2008, 06:11:58 PM »

So I was mistaken -- the answers aren't due on the same Sunday they're posted. I didn't see anywhere in your first post that we had a whole week. My mistake!

That means you could be lying as well

And done a little better!!!

BlueMeanie · « **Reply #55 on:** March 21, 2008, 11:00:45 AM »

I am getting a couple of different answers in for the question:

And In The End
The last recording session for 'Let It Be' by members of The Beatles took place on 4 January 1970. Name the song, and the Beatle that was not in attendence. 2 points for each.

The clue to the correct answer is in the question. 'Members' of The Beatles, and '4 January'.

BlueMeanie · « **Reply #56 on:** March 21, 2008, 05:00:33 PM »

Don't forget that the closing date for entries for Mastermind 1 is this Sunday 23 March at 12 noon GMT. Mastermind 3 will start at the same time, and continue for 2 weeks. Mastermind 2 will finish on Sunday 30 March at 12 noon GMT.

BlueMeanie · « **Reply #57 on:** March 31, 2008, 08:52:57 AM »

Round 2 will remain open for a few more hours, just in case anybody else wants to enter.

zipp · « **Reply #58 on:** April 01, 2008, 05:08:28 PM »

When's round 4 coming along?

BlueMeanie · « **Reply #59 on:** April 03, 2008, 10:23:30 AM »

The quiz will continue this Sunday. I've been sick with flu for most of the week, so I haven't really felt like putting it together. I'll be giving the results for rounds 2 & 3, and the standings, then round 4 starts.

Btw, only two people - Zipp, and Geoff - have the correct answer for the picture round.
