TWINKLE Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 No, they can't be the same questions for everyone. I've been following the thread and nobody has mentioned a question that I had. I think this a good thing that way we can't cheat (as if we would[:-))]) as in "Hey, you do the quiz first to-day and then pm me the correct answers".

Catalpa Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 [quote user="Russethouse"]It may be that the questions are the same level (although that seems a little odd) [/quote] The questions were definitely France and UK related but... while I emphasise in advance that my questions were mostly really really hard... did anyone else get asked "what is the typical shape of a French croissant" ???

TWINKLE Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 [quote user="catalpa"][quote user="TWINKLE"] I'm staying up 'til midnight so I can do the new one before all of you in Britain (hour ahead here[:P]) 'cos' it's only the top 50 players who get points.[/quote]If it's the top 50 players per contest... 28 people have played so far and as I don't believe there'll be a rush of CF quiz addicts playing before morning, I reckon you're guaranteed your points, Twinkle.

Tresco Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 [quote user="catalpa"] ... did anyone else get asked "what is the typical shape of a French croissant" ??? [:P][/quote]You're kidding. I got some Quebecoise French to decipher (an 'expression'), one about Legislative Assemblies in Commonwealth countries, which Scottish hero is represented by a statue in a town I'd never heard of, and you get croissants![:-))]Edit. Where it says 'BLOCKED EXPRESSION,' it should just say ('an expression') with two brackets, as it does in preview, and I got a very strange 'error' message when I hit 'post' too.Edit that is oh so wierd.

Catalpa Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 You could try putting a couple of random spaces in the word/s so that the "acceptable language" check doesn't get over-excited...Scottish town: Melrose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 What I was trying to type wasn't dodgy at all. It was, literally, this: 'an expression'.Yes. Melrose, and the statue was of William Wallace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
