    A get-to-know-you quiz about forum gamers which will need a lot of lucky guesses to win...or can your psychic powers of deduction and the process of elimination help you?
    No chance, you may as well throw darts at a board while blindfolded

    Everyone can enter whether you contributed something up to this point or not.

    Send your answers via PRIVATE MESSAGE to me in whatever form you want.

    Make sure to answer all questions in the right order as I won't be helping you out. I've done my bit already!

    Rules:

    1. No searching user posts.

    2. You are allowed to search the web for help if there's something in the questions you don't understand e.g. a word.

    3. No changing answers. Once submitted it's final.

    4. One point per correct answer.

    5. You don't have to answer your own question as that's a given point already, but just make sure you don't get mixed up in the order and/or confuse me.

    6. Accepting submissions until all 29 players who made it happen have entered. But again, anyone can enter.

    7. Don't give away the answers in the thread.

    If I had a board and some darts, I'd have thrown them 29 times, and no doubt smashed it. (the game, not the board!)


    But I don't, so I randomly deleted three of the four answers for each poster, and that'll just have to do.


    I'd probably have got my own one wrong if I had to answer it!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,875 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Calm down everyone, there must be a rational explanation for the mam question. Rebe obviously made a mistake.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    If there's one thing I learned from the Big Boardser house, it's that 'Mam of whatever', will have taken great delight in knowing this would mess with all our heads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    I was really hoping Reb's question would be which Forum Gamer is his Brother...

    I really want to know the answer to that one.

    I'm in. I will be impressed if any participants get a majority of the questions right. :)

    A score of 8 should be possible on a purely random basis, why do I feel I'll get less...? ;)

    Thanks Reberetta some interesting options! :D

    I realise the point here is to be correct, but I'm actually curious if any of the wrong answers prove to be massive sheep :pac:

    The "whatever " makes it sound like a bunch of random OBJECTS :(
