Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

Unless my boss comes over all funny/peculiar and gives me friday off, I'll start the ball rolling at 6.30 pm.

And for once I know all the answers :)

I hadn't realised just how much work putting the quiz together involves - I won't be so competitive next time :D

If anyone's discovered a way of sending chocolate by PM, you might find a clue slipping your way ;)

Look forward to seeing you all on friday afternoon :):)

Few players realise the amount of work involved, researching the questions for accuracy, getting the mix right, etc.

accuracy? who needs that :p: ambiguity causes all kinds of fun ;)

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

If you can get to your local library they are a great help, and don't forget to check and see if the answers can be Googled (the one I messed up last week was the one I didn't check).

Good luck https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2012/01/10.gif

See you Friday at 18:30 hours.

PS Chocolate is on it's way https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2007/03/5.gif

Great! Maybe I won't miss *this* one!!

That's my only regret at being so good at them on here!! :spin:

It's also why I keep a piece of note paper handy so every time I think "Hmm, that would make a good question" I can write it down before I forget it, then I can just look at the list and pick 25 Q's off there.

You could try posting a sneak preview like someone else did once oops:

i'm still waiting to see if i was right with metawraiths question where was adam & eve banished to according to islam :confused:

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

And see you then homealone :)

Thanks :)

Perhaps I should throw in some 'Dave Stones specials' to spice things up? ;)

Oh, and whats that in your sig about stage one being complete? That's nothing to do with your evil cookie-assassination plans, I hope ??? :Yikes:

Great advice - thanks :)

But that soooo doesn't look like chocolate .... ;) :sick:

Now that is the sort of dufus thing I can just see myself doing. Must remember not to type 'did you know that ... ' at any stage in the next few days :erm:

Wasn't it Serendip ??

i thought it was eden :confused:

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

throw in something about lord of the rings, might be able to get nemesis/simon m banned again ;)

stage one refers to stage one of the plan.... that's all you are getting to know :shocking:

God punished them by sending them out into the earth amid mutual enmity, but then took mercy upon them; warning them not to follow Satan, he promised them that all would be well for those who followed God's guidance, while those who rejected it would suffer hellfire. The early Shia commentator al-Qummi says that Adam came down to Earth on Safa and Eve on Marwa, both peaks just outside Mecca; there Adam remained weeping for 40 days, until he repented and God rewarded him by sending down the Kaaba and teaching him the hajj.

The Qur'an also describes the two sons of Adam (named Qabil and Habil
:confused:
maybe the question was flawed :)

sorry its been eating me :Yikes:

It takes quite a few minutes to actually "post" the quiz, bear that in mind around 6:20pm.

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

Don't let it worry you, I said at the time that I'd withdrawn that Q, due to time constraints, but will use most likely it in future. So i'm hardly likely to give the answer here now,am I? ;)

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

what struck me, the first time I 'hosted' a quiz, was the challenge of replying to a post 3 pages ago, while still being aware of a new one - paper and pencil is as good as anything for keeping track of who has answered which question, in my opinion ;)

Re: Trailing the first friday quiz of September
 

Sound advice, was what I did. Wrote whoever answered correctly next to each question on an old fashioned "hard copy". Problem I had was replying to those who got it wrong (very fast paced).:shocked:
