    Sorry to be dumb, but how do you check where you stand in the rankings later in the day (not that it’s usually good news for me, as I read the questions out so Mr HH can join in, so I’m always slower than most)? After I’ve played, I click on the “see how you did” link but that then goes once you’ve done so.

    There's a table at the bottom of the main page you go to when you want to play the quiz.

    so there is - it was obviously far too complicated for me to simply scroll down

    10/10 in 32 seconds. I can't read half the questions in that time. It appears I am also stupid although I did know how to check where I was on the league table!

  7. It's an acquired skill. Your eyes/brain learn to sift out the key words. The only problem arises when there is a sneaky 'not' in the questions, eg "which one of these players has not won a world cup medal"; you miss the not, and because the first answer in the list is Bobby Moore, you click that and move on.

    Has happened many times!

    I totally agree with you mate, about the 32secs, how the **** can anyone read the questions that fast let alone answer them all as well o_O

  9. I think the record is 21 seconds. Nugsson probably. Low 30's is very common. I seem to recall you performed pretty respectably. See if you can persuade ZZTop to join in.

    JUST AN INTRODUCTION/REMINDER FOR CASUAL QUIZZERS:

    This is a ‘fun’ multiple choice quiz with different categories every day so why not try it?
    Takes a couple of minutes.
    Click the link on Hornmeister’s first post to play.
    100 points for a correct answer and 1 point deducted per second taken.
    Check your results by scrolling down main page.

    I’m average and slow - don’t be intimidated by the super-quick master quizzers on here.

    (So this is just an appeal for more average casual players so I don’t look so bad).
    Thanks :p
     
  11. I too would like a couple of extra players to take part today! One of the leaders is a Spurs fan! I can take him down!
     
  12. Last months Watford forum quiz was won by a Spurs fan. This is a dark day. We need the forum's brightest and best to stop it happening again. Even you, Top.

    The undeniable truth First Team Captain

    On that basis, should they have accepted "my wife's knickers" ?

    I definitely should have plugged this yesterday when I was top as opposed to everyone seeing me second bottom

    I'm glad you've bumped it today though, as long as any people it reminds don't beat 10 in 36 seconds.

    Bump to remind myself and put this back on page 1

    Bumped - the numbers are low today and I could do with someone pushing Wiz down to 4th, but keeping me 2nd.

    Bump to keep this on page 1 so I can find it and don’t forget it

    Is there a time penalty for wrong answers? There's no chance I took 80 seconds on that poor attempt.
     
  31. You get 100 points for each correct answer, but lose 1 point for every second you take - eg 9 out of 10 in 45 secs will score 855. So, 8 correct in 30 secs (770) will beat 9 correct in 135 secs (765). Stops people googling (unless you are a very fast googler)

    Weird I didn't take 80 seconds, I literally skimmed it and clicked the first answer in my head. Will see what tomorrow holds.
     
  33. Good one today...
     
  34. Lots of lucky guesses today!
     
  35. Nice easy day for anyone who fancies a go!
