Just a note: ecaf who came second would have won had I counted their answer 'six foot answer' the same as 'six feet under'. This may seem like cutting things a little too fine but I felt that one refers to the TV show and the other is the grammatically correct to say "buried....six foot under".

Sorry ecaf....

mathew

Success
First time in in the Puzzles and Quizzes forum too :P

patrickc

god wonder if i was sober when i answered that one and didnt muddle up my answers how would i have done:D

ecaf

(2nd)
Ah well, when I was reading down through the answers, I thought I was doing really badly!
So it's a surprise to come 2nd!

Thanks Ponster, I really like these quizzes!!!

Edit: Just a question - not that it matters to my score, but why didn't you group "Ten Commandments" and "The Ten Commandments"? (I answered the 1st one anyway, but just curious)

Ponster

lol

Because I didn't spot it until now

I'll redo the scores when I get back this evening, grouping those 7 answers together and see if you manage to steal the top spot from mathew.

EDIT: actually seeing as mathew said "Top ten" there's a good chance that I'll end up reversing 1st and 2nd place...

rgiller

5th! Alright, I'm moving up the ladder...

And what about "fantastic four" and "the fantastic four"??

Ponster

Ahhh, now you see what it's like to correct these things

I had changed all the "fantastic 4"s to fantastic four but forgot the 'the'.

This quiz was a bollox to do

Ponster

Ok.... I redid the scoring taking into account the two errors and now we get this....
