    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.

    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!

    Ah now , I wouldn't go that far as to say that...:p


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,358 ✭✭✭✭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 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. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    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 :(

    I can't believe I'm spending my Sunday evening answer questions about people that I know nothing, nor care, about.
