    In but highly sceptical that some of my answers are correct. I wasn't 100% on the density one (are you looking for an SI unit, like would inches be an acceptable answer for a unit of length?) and I entered only the surname of the Nobel Laureate as I can't think of his first name for the life of me. I guessed a letter for the DNA one as that's out of my league.

    Great idea for a topic, really tested on a few of them but also a good mix of ones with very few correct answers.......best of luck to all who entered!

    I might do one soon that is all just questions with a finite number of answers......Name one of the members of the Beatles, Pick an Irish city etc etc.


    What question do you think didn't have a finite number of answers in this peehs?

    Apologies, I meant to say "more" finite..... As in one with only 2-5 selections

    currently 10 cities in ireland, although 5 if you limit to republic of ireland.

    It's your quiz, do what you like.

    From my limited experience, it would be a lot easier score it and admin the collation of entries.

    It would lead to a much tighter scoreboard as there is less spread of points won. There could be 10-12 on top points.

    And most of the "cities" in Northern Ireland are bull**** fake cities anyway. :rolleyes:Lisburn is NOT a city. #petpeeve

    Yeah, that would be the fun of it. Have a couple of really high scores thrown in so you aren't scuppered by one bad question / answer

    Maybe set up a game where only the person creating it knows if it is Peehs or Sheep, or even a mix of Q's.

    It would be evil, but would be a funny reveal.
