    Starts Officially today

    Here's the link, but it's in my signature too

    Unfortuantely I cannot remove last weeks scores without dumping the whole thing and everyone having to register again, so we'll carry on with this one. For the rest of October I'll give weekly prizes depending on daily averages, (starting today), but starting November I'll do weekly and monthly prizes of 'Orns depending on the site tables.

    This shall carry on until we become bored.

    Yes well... the primary object of a quiz is to answer questions correctly. Now whilst that may have escaped your attention, it still matters. Look at how I am a full 20 seconds slower than you and STILL lead you by 180 points.

    That said - 38 seconds is very quick indeed.

    Let's have a sweep on how fast UEA does it tonight. 20 orns for the correct prediction. I'll say 35 seconds.

    If that's a bet to say he won't do the quiz tonight, it won't count.

    44. I'm hoping he finished behind me, but it's a forlorn hope, I feel. I spent a few valuable seconds pondering the Olympics one and it cost me dear.

    Hmm... so it looks like there's a Mickey Mouse question, a Louis XIV question, and an Olympics question...

    Fear not mere mortals, I got 10 in a pathetic 45 seconds. In my defence I clicked 'Sofia' for the capital of Bulgaria and made the amateur mistake of using the down arrow to try and move the page down. I reckon that took exactly 5 seconds to correct using the silly mousepad :dismay:

    You were, and for that you have my admiration but not my 'orns because when you've just had 60 odd thousand of them swiped from under your nose you get a bit precious about them, as you will understand.
