The FMCU Forum Quiz 2012!

[SnakeXe]

Didn't realise you were a hipster, Nobby?

[HotChocolate]

Had an idea for Round 10, the last round. Instead of the usual 10 questions with a bonus questions how about 20 questions? No bonus question, it could change the league table dramatically and with it being the final week, always got to go out with a bang?

[acidmonkey]

sounds good to me as will give me chance to make ground (providing i get some right!)

[SnakeXe]

I liked it the first time, and I like it even better in bold

[SRL88]

Sounds good because I will win it ha.

[HotChocolate]

I liked it the first time, and I like it even better in bold

Nobody responded 1st time although it wasn't the best time to put it, just before releasing the results of round 4

[Flamers]

Ohhh big letters, i believe what it says

*damn you anti caps, I was doing it ironically*

[Nobby_McDonald]

Didn't realise you were a hipster, Nobby?

Not with the band in question.

[Nobby_McDonald]

Had an idea for Round 10, the last round. Instead of the usual 10 questions with a bonus questions how about 20 questions? No bonus question, it could change the league table dramatically and with it being the final week, always got to go out with a bang?

Sounds good to me, I prefer the normal questions than the bonus questions.

I've an idea for the next quiz... each person takes a turn as quiz master.

[deltablue]

Too many people though, there'd be some who'd have the advantage of getting to answer every round (as obvs we won't be answering questions we set ourselves). I wonder if anyone will get the reference in my answer to number 5.

[HotChocolate]

Yeah we have about 25 odd people that send in answers each week and it would give people an advantage. I can come up with more ideas for the next quiz though and have the format/layout etc to be different

[SnakeXe]

How about the person who does worst each week sends in their own question for next week?

[Raware]

I think you're making the questions harder each week HC . Not confident about the answers I've sent in.

[SRL88]

How about the person who does worst each week sends in their own question for next week?

So Pangaea?

[City2000]

Email Sent, had a shocker last week so can't do much worse this week!

[HotChocolate]

How about the person who does worst each week sends in their own question for next week?

They might not get all the questions correct though, even if they know the answer

I think you're making the questions harder each week HC . Not confident about the answers I've sent in.

That was the plan, although I might be kind. One week, might be.

[HotChocolate]

We have another 0 pointer this week. I'm sure they know who they are though

[deltablue]

Some amusing answers there, no doubt.

[HotChocolate]

[HotChocolate]

Just updating the table for next week and I realize that last week I had ShyBaldBuddhist below a lot people when he was on 18 points, why didn't no one tell me?

[roganp]

Something about 10 letters, characters or something or other.

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

Just updating the table for next week and I realize that last week I had ShyBaldBuddhist below a lot people when he was on 18 points, why didn't no one tell me?

I'm far too modest to bring something like that up

[Deisler26]

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's Tuesday!

[deltablue]

Wheeee! Will be nice coming back later after my exam this afternoon (very drunk from celebrations no doubt) to something rather more fun.

Unsurprised

[HotChocolate]

Hot Chocolate (MattSpurs94) - This was the Snow Patrol question, HotChocolate would be a great name for a band!
Snow Patrol, ugh thought you had more taste (Deisler26) - We've established this week that the great Deisler is not a fan of my music.
Kiwi Stadium (Various) - There were many similar to this, and actually you weren't to far off!
69 (Deisler26) - The only one to guess '69'
100+ (Various) - Many people thinking that Barbra Streisend has been around too long.
England, France, Sweden, Ukraine (Please be this group!) (ManUTactician247) - I wanted to give you a point for this, it made me laugh. But no, you didn't get a point.
Juan Taco (hrbfcrule) - I'd like to meet him one day although the real answer was Kuno Becker.
Spice Girls (deltablue) - Secret fan by anychance?
Naked snow run (hursty2) - There were many variations of snow sports but this one stood out.
Stade de Auckland (City2000) - Some great stadium names but this has to be the best one in my opinion.

However the best answer so far, in the entire quiz goes to deltablue for this brilliantly thought out answer to number 9. Which I've only just got.

Boca Juniors and Young Boys (deltablue) - I've only just got it, that is quality. Brilliant delta, I take my hat off to you.

[HotChocolate]

[HotChocolate]

Logo link?

*EDIT* It's there now, too keen

I was wondering if anyone caught the question before I put the link up!

[Flamers]

Yes, yes they did The image didn't help me mind

(answers sent btw)

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

\o/ two points. Will have a proper look at the questions later. Qucik gander and I think I know 5 of them

[ManUTactician247]

Confident I'll get at least 2 this time!

[acidmonkey]

[HotChocolate]

sent them in, i generaly think i might have full points im that confident

I've had to send your answers to the Quiz Adjudicatory

[Nottingham Forest]

Is it not British Broadcasting Corporation.

[acidmonkey]

I've had to send your answers to the Quiz Adjudicatory

x factor n hollyoaks is cos of missus, Spain caps were a guess, the rest are just random facts i know, and i know lots of em!

[HotChocolate]

Is it not British Broadcasting Corporation.

Yes, that's what it says?

[HotChocolate]

x factor n hollyoaks is cos of missus, Spain caps were a guess, the rest are just random facts i know, and i know lots of em!

Should I put acidmonkey + his missus on the league table then

I know a lot of random facts that are utterly pointless.

[acidmonkey]

lol no i meant i kno them cos my missus watches that crap!

[Nottingham Forest]

Yes, that's what it says?

No it doesn't. It says council. Unless they both mean the same thing, which I don't think they do.

[Flamers]

NF are you reading my answers?

[Nottingham Forest]

No, why? .

[Flamers]

http://community.sigames.com/showthr...=1#post7597438

Says cooperation...

[Nottingham Forest]

Oh right yeah I am .

[deltablue]

Yes, that's what it says?

It does, I checked when NF first made the comment, not sure why people are reading something else.

[Flamers]

He was reading these, far superior, answers: http://community.sigames.com/showthr...=1#post7597496

[SnakeXe]

Sent mine in, had to make a few educated guesses, and some stupid answers of course. Come on, the X-Factor?!

[SnakeXe]

Anyone else getting a delivery failure for the email address? I'll PM them to you, HC.

[HotChocolate]

I love the fact that NF kept battling his side when he was clearly wrong

Alright Snake, I'll keep posting who's answer I haven't received just in case I don't get all of them for whatever reason (which is what happened a week or two ago)

[HotChocolate]

hrbfcrule has pointed out I miss spelt both of Iniesta's and Fabregas's name.

I have since changed that and that's why it says last edited, don't worry, I haven't changed any questions

[SRL88]

Sent my answers in. Think I have done ok this week.

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

Email sent HC. I have done much better than last week.

[Flamers]

I wasn't going to point out spelling of footballers names

[hrbfcrule]

hrbfcrule has pointed out I miss spelt both of Iniesta's and Fabregas's name.

I have since changed that and that's why it says last edited, don't worry, I haven't changed any questions

I thought you were trying to make it a trick question

[AK22]

Answers sent!

[Nobby_McDonald]

Sent in my answers. I answered one question with a question.

[Pangaea]

These forumers haven't sent in the answers for Round 5 yet:

• ssestig
• B.W.G
• Makonnen
• DazRTaylor
• Nottingham Forest
• kris0710
• rancer890
• malikoi
• Pangaea

Been without internet for almost a week so couldn't send in for the last round. It just got back now. Slow a stiff turd's exit, but at least it's back.

Would just have gotten my usual 3-5 points anyway so doubt I missed out on being a winner

[Pangaea]

Wait, it's pancake day?!?!

Hah! Funny coincidence I actually had pancakes that day. Made them myself and they were bloody good too. Mmmmmmmmm

[deltablue]

Sent, with an idea, just a handful of points yet again, found my true level after a good start.

[Pangaea]

Only one or two points for me this coming week, so you'll probably have at least me beaten deltablue.

I'm usually half-decent at quizzes, but there are too many oddballs in these questions for me.

[Raware]

A great week for me as I knew the majority of those questions (makes a change!)...well, apart from the damn reality tv show question and Hollyoaks question. Confident of at least 7-8 questions that are right

[deltablue]

Knew Hollyoaks as it's mentioned in trailers beforehand when I'm watching the Simpsons, maybe should avoid such non-sporting UK-specific questions in future though.

[HotChocolate]

Knew Hollyoaks as it's mentioned in trailers beforehand when I'm watching the Simpsons, maybe should avoid such non-sporting UK-specific questions in future though.

Hollyoaks was one that was UK specific yes, but I think it would be hard to not avoid it the odd time.

X-Factor US, Harry Potter, the song lyrics, World Snooker Champion could be known anywhere in the world in my opinion, granted Hollyoaks isn't but like I said it would be hard to make sure every question was answerable for everyone.

[SRL88]

Hollyoaks is trash, just like The Only Way is Essex.

[HotChocolate]

Hollyoaks is trash, just like The Only Way is Essex.

TOWIE = Reem

I'm joking, never watched it before in my life and I plan on keeping it that way.

[deltablue]

TOWIE = Reem

I'm joking, never watched it before in my life and I plan on keeping it that way.

Quite right.

[jackripper]

im so Fick!!!

[acidmonkey]

im so Fick!!!

We know, Dont worry about it

[Pangaea]

He could be quite lean for what we know.

[Nobby_McDonald]

Regarding last week's answers... I take it Hot Chocolate didn't like 'No Sheep Til Buxton'.

[HotChocolate]

O mighty Quizmaster, I had an idea to run past your great mind, maybe we should have a bonus point for the best answer, just one a week shouldn't devalue the quiz much and make willy answers for questions you don't know more worthwhile.

From deltablue, I like the idea and I'm willing to put it in if there wont be a revolt against me

Although the same person can't win it twice and it's based on my opinion?

[HotChocolate]

Regarding last week's answers... I take it Hot Chocolate didn't like 'No Sheep Til Buxton'.

No, no, no and no

[AcidBurn]

Regarding last week's answers... I take it Hot Chocolate didn't like 'No Sheep Til Buxton'.

The Macc Lads song?

[deltablue]

Just spotted the rather awkward typo I made.

[HotChocolate]

Just spotted the rather awkward typo I made.

Kind of gutted you were the one to spot it first, apart from me

[jackripper]

He could be quite lean for what we know.

you been at my bedroom window again watching me lol

[jackripper]

We know, Dont worry about it

Fanks poeple sya my speling iz bard but eye dont beleeve thum

[SnakeXe]

The Macc Lads song?

I assume either he or they are making a play on the Beastie Boys song?

[Nobby_McDonald]

The Macc Lads song?

Of course. I thought about sending a link to Sweaty Betty but thought I'd ease him into The Macc Lads.

[HotChocolate]

Got quite a few that haven't handed their answers in yet:

• roganp
• Deisler26
• iHeadHunta x
• ssestig
• City2000
• hursty2
• Makonnen
• DazRTaylor

[Deisler26]

Sent you a PM

[AcidBurn]

I assume either he or they are making a play on the Beastie Boys song?

Most Macc Lads songs are just the music from one song with their lyrics replacing the original, usually about sex and beer.

Of course. I thought about sending a link to Sweaty Betty but thought I'd ease him into The Macc Lads.

Better than starting him with he's a poof. Failure with girls is my favourite.

[hursty2]

Sent!Pretty sure I've done rubbish.

[HotChocolate]

Awesome guys.

It's quizzzzzzzzzz day!

[HotChocolate]

I thought it would be best to leave this until today so that it didn't cause any difference for people who hadn't sent in answers to those that already had but I decided to remove Question 5: Which player scored the winning goal in the CONCACAF Gold Cup Final 2011? This is because in my eyes the 'winning' goal is the one that puts the team in front. The game finished USA 2-4 Mexico and therefore the 3rd goal was the 'winning' goal but after considering it mid-week I decided that I did that based on my opinion and others might see it differently.

Pablo Barrera was the correct answer but as I said I removed it because people could take the question differently. I have added a 'bonus point' in this weeks round, so there will be a possible 13 points next week to make up for the possible 11 points this week.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused, blah, blah, blah. I hope you forgive me
