Suandpete Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Just had 2 very odd questions which seem to be the second part of other questions if you know what I mean...1. Also the outlook of their monks' outfit was changed. What was the new look?2. On this "trip" through the Britain's islands, in which direction have I've led you?Has anyone else had these two? Edit: Just did it again in my other persona - didn't seem fair that I had no chance at all with those 2 questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I have twice answered French language questions correctly and in the score it says I am wrong, giving me the correct answer, which is the answer I put. I even flipped back a page yesterday to make sure and I had put the correct answer... [8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will obviously did not have the same set of questions, the one about ugly nails takes longer than 41 secs to read let alone answer.!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 You are right there Ron, it is definitely luck of the draw, all of the questions I got were ones that I knew, or could very easily work out, though one was a lucky guess (Dreyfus' religion) and the only Scottish river question was one that has come up before and fortunately I remembered it.

Russethouse Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 I'll change it at the end of the month otherwise I think some questions may just come around again, some categories are not very big.In the other quiz I do I keep getting asked about American Baseball teams - doh [:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Seconded about the ugly nails, I read it (them), understood it, andSTILL got the stupid mouse to click in the wrong hole. Frustrating orwhat??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Russethouse, please please please dont include American base ball orbasketball, We do have some standards, low I know, but some.[:)]Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Fun trivia provide a daily quiz which is what I do via another forum, there are quite a lot of categories to choose from but some are not very big. Perhaps I had better start looking at them.....[blink] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was absolutely certain of a particular answer and it got marked as wrong and said that the correct answer was what I believed I had ticked, when I clicked back to check I HAD clicked the right answer.

Coco Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 It's done it again to me! It didn't mark questions wrong that I got right but it said that I took 263 seconds to complete the quiz and I actually (according to my computer clock) did it less than two minutes [:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Animal Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Every time I have a go, I sit up straight, take a deep breath and press the Play button.I did get the shipwrecks again today, but otherwise it's all history, politics or Scotland which I don't know much about.But today, here's the best :We know that the Prime Minister officially lives at 10 Downing Street and that the Chancellor officially lives at number 11, but who is behind the door of number 12?One of the options for the answer is :There is no number 9 [8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 I was looking at other possible categories last night and read through the 'Encyclopedia' for Brittany which seemed to say that the Faience museum houses something other than pottery ...............I KNOW thats wrong......

Kitty Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Russethouse - I see that someone in the quiz room called Russethouse got 8 points. Surely that cannot be you!! You would have got 10 in 10 seconds. Is someone masquerading as you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 OMG - I looked earlier to prepare for a change next week - I wonder if I have altered it too soon.......drat!My average has been about 6 I think - me 10 ?

Owens88 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 In reply to some of the people who have had anomalies in their scoring. I had one today. An answer was marked wrong when I had it correct (no big deal it was a guess anyway, and its only a quiz !). My suspicion is that it didn't register any answer from me on that question. It was the last one . CheersJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
