The FMCU Forum Quiz 2012!

[SRL88]

I think I have got 6 or 7 right this week.

Iron Maiden .

[Raware]

Some great clips of Bruce Dickinson and the Maiden

I've only ever seen clips but this has to be the funniest I've seen, 2nd is the Rhino birth

I can't believe you've only ever seen clips of Ace Ventura Pet Detective . You're missing out! Answers sent by the way.

[HotChocolate]

I can't believe you've only ever seen clips of Ace Ventura Pet Detective . You're missing out! Answers sent by the way.

From what I've seen, it's hilarious

[SnakeXe]

"Hello, I'd like to ass you a few questions!"

[Raware]

Ass hole mio!

[Deisler26]

"Do you have a mint?"

[Pangaea]

"Tipi. I need tipi for my bunghole!"

[Pangaea]

A funny Justin Bieber quiz. First question had me

http://theoatmeal.com/quiz/justin_bieber

[SnakeXe]

26 Biebers

[deltablue]

27 too many.

[Pangaea]

Funny. I got 28 back when I took it.

[SnakeXe]

Funny. I got 28 back when I took it.

I bow to your superior Bieber-bashing skills!

[HotChocolate]

I'm ashamed to say 10.

[Flamers]

Country born and bred. Built for fighting

(35 is the perfect score )

[deltablue]

My hero!!!!!!!!!!!

[Nobby_McDonald]

I can take 23 Biebers. Killing him once would suffice!

[Pangaea]

I'm not sure. He's so tiny he may well be a cat with 9 lives.

The way his hair is mucked up it looks like he has just come out of the channel too.

Luciano? Thou art needed.

[HotChocolate]

These people still haven't sent in the answers for this week:

• roganp

[hursty2]

Sent in mine, good sir.

[MattSpurs94]

Not bad, not bad....

[Deisler26]

Quiz time!!! If it's done before 1, I can mull over the answers on my flight!

[HotChocolate]

Quiz time!!! If it's done before 1, I can mull over the answers on my flight!

It will have to be done before 1 as I've got a long treck down to Colchester to watch the mighty Blades tonight

On a side note, only one person pointed out my spelling mistake and the missed word in the last set of questions!

[deltablue]

I did, but I do have strong pedantic tendencies so wanted to avoid being too much of an arse having corrected you a bit before. For example I very nearly pointed out to you last week that there's no such team as 'Borrusia Dortmund'. I'll be sure to give you both barrels in future.

I usually triple check when putting out the answers and questions, I'm becoming to easy with the eye.

[deltablue]

That one's too small to correct

[SnakeXe]

Incredibly harsh not allowing "EA" for Q2.

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

FFS made a right mess of Q4. Bloody well put Enke didn't I.

[SnakeXe]

I knew it was the Enke book but didn't know who wrote it.

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

I just presumed with all HC's spelling mistakes and errors he meant to ask who was the book about. I deserve my point!

So there is no change at the top but a lot still to play for with 32 points still up for grabs! Just want to point out MattSpurs94 getting 4 for the past 4 weeks

[HotChocolate]

Incredibly harsh not allowing "EA" for Q2.

I don't think it is as there is EA Canada and EA Sports.

If I was to say which team plays at Hillsborough you couldn't put Sheffield and get away with it!

[HotChocolate]

The Flash (Pangaea) – Plays at the Ricoh?

Some guy who didn’t live long (jackripper) – A little bit harsh!

2010 was Netherlands, 2006 was France, 2002 was Germany, 1998 was Brazil, 1994 was Italy, 1990 was Argentina, 1986 was West Germany, 1982 was West Germany, 1978 was Netherlands, 1974 was Netherlands, 1970 was Brazil, 1966 was West Germany, 1962 was Czechoslovakia.. what, show-off? Me? How dare you… (SnakeXe) – In 1970 it was Italy who came runners up to Brazil, 4-1 if I remember correctly and no I haven’t checked Wikiepdia

Die Hard 6 – Die Hard and Die Harder (SnakeXe) – That’s cruel, Karma is biting you in the ass with the fail on question 7.

Robert Enke (ShyBaldBuddhist) – Putting it bluntly, he’s dead and the book was wrote about him.

Robert Enke. Such a tragic story. It’s on my books to buy list. (Raware) –You didn’t read the question correctly then?

Rocky VIII (give it time) (deltablue) – The answer to the film question, delta then went and corrected one of my questions I missed out the word season in the bonus question.

Flamers – To serve him right all I'm not going to put his answers in because he clearly had given up. However he did get the Beiber question right.


Kind hearted person of the week:

B.W.G for thinking about other forumers: The little **** was born in Canada...poor Rancer and Cerud having to share the same nationality!

[SnakeXe]

I don't think it is as there is EA Canada and EA Sports.

If I was to say which team plays at Hillsborough you couldn't put Sheffield and get away with it!

It's more like not allowing "Dostoevsky" for "Who wrote War and Peace?" because there's more than one Dostoevsky. EA did develop it, it just happened to be their EA Canada arm.

[HotChocolate]

It's more like not allowing "Dostoevsky" for "Who wrote War and Peace?" because there's more than one Dostoevsky. EA did develop it, it just happened to be their EA Canada arm.

But EA overlooked the publishing and development of the game, EA Canada were the ones that actually developed it.

[SnakeXe]

2010 was Netherlands, 2006 was France, 2002 was Germany, 1998 was Brazil, 1994 was Italy, 1990 was Argentina, 1986 was West Germany, 1982 was West Germany, 1978 was Netherlands, 1974 was Netherlands, 1970 was Brazil, 1966 was West Germany, 1962 was Czechoslovakia.. what, show-off? Me? How dare you… (SnakeXe) – In 1970 it was Italy who came runners up to Brazil, 4-1 if I remember correctly and no I haven’t checked Wikiepdia

Balls, yeah you're right, I thought 1970 was the year Brazil played amazingly but failed to win it. The fact that it was Zico and Socrates in that team should have probably made me realise it wasn't 1970... woops!

[SnakeXe]

But EA overlooked the publishing and development of the game, EA Canada were the ones that actually developed it.

But they're still EA. One we'll have to agree to disagree on I think

[HotChocolate]

1. Arsenal broke a Premier League record last night by beating Newcastle 2-1 but what was it?

2. How do you dance the Miserablist Tango?

3. What is Robbie Keane's (the Irish international that currently plays his football in the MLS) middle name?

4. Which song is currently top of the Top 40 UK, as of this week?

5. AFC Ajax are based in which city?

6. Who played Buffy in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV Series)?

7. Yasuhito Endo currently plays for which club?

8. Who are the current Champions of the NHL?

9. Barcelona won the Club World Cup in 2011 but who did they beat in the Final?

10. Who invented the telephone?

Bonus Question: In Barney Butterballs career thread he started off at which team?

[HotChocolate]

But they're still EA. One we'll have to agree to disagree on I think

Yep

I think only 1 or 2 actually got that one correct, in my eyes

[Flamers]

Hey just because I don't know the answers to the questions you ask

[SnakeXe]

Yep

I think only 1 or 2 actually got that one correct, in my eyes

Yeah, the ones who cheated, *cough* er I mean, own the game or work for EA Canada or something.

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

Going to be a low score for me this week Haven't got a clue with most of them.

[HotChocolate]

Yeah, the ones who cheated, *cough* er I mean, own the game or work for EA Canada or something.

Now now, I'll deduct points for arguing

[HotChocolate]

Going to be a low score for me this week Haven't got a clue with most of them.

How can you not know Robbie Keane's middle name?

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

I have not got a fecking clue what his middle name is. Is it such common knowledge I should feel stupid for not knowing?

also what the feck is a Miserablist Tango? Is there some vague reference or quote I'm not getting? Like I said going to be a lowing scoring round for me

[HotChocolate]

I have not got a fecking clue what his middle name is. Is it such common knowledge I should feel stupid for not knowing?

No, my comment was very sarcastic

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

Thank god for that Should have asked to name Heskey's middle name. Ivanoe is such a cool name

[HotChocolate]

Thank god for that Should have asked to name Heskey's middle name. Ivanoe is such a cool name

Did you Wikipedia that or know it? I think I've heard it before but wouldn't have had a clue if asked

[ShyBaldBuddhist]

I already knew it. One of those bits of trivia that I just remember. Probably due to it being so

[SnakeXe]

Indeed, Ivanhoe is a cracking name

This round is going to have gone poorly I think

Edit: It was difficult to not just suggest a rude word for Keane's middle name.

[HotChocolate]

I already knew it. One of those bits of trivia that I just remember. Probably due to it being so

Like I said, I remember hearing it but would never know if asked

[rancer890]

Sent. Forgot last week again though.

[Pangaea]

Bah. I figured "A boy" would be funny on the question of who wrote "A life too short."

[SnakeXe]

"A midget" would've been funnier.

[MattSpurs94]

Answers sent

Just want to point out MattSpurs94 getting 4 for the past 4 weeks

It's because I'm a pro quiz player Probably get 4 this week too.

[deltablue]

Another fairly good week, probably less good this time when I do them and didn't even remember that I picked you up on 'scorer'.

[AK22]

Answers sent. Not a clue on a couple of them...

[deltablue]

The NHL one was maddening as assuming that's the Stanley cup, with a couple of friends from Vancouver I knew all about the Canuck's run to the final but have long forgotten who beat them.

[HotChocolate]

The NHL one was maddening as assuming that's the Stanley cup, with a couple of friends from Vancouver I knew all about the Canuck's run to the final but have long forgotten who beat them.

Yes it is the champions of the Stanley Cup because they become champions of the NHL (I believe )

[jackripper]

yesss im not bottom anymore..

[acidmonkey]

woo im awesome! but hey i knew that already :d

[HotChocolate]

Just to let you know, the week after the the final round results, if that makes sense?

I will be doing a "Roundup" of the Quiz, so far I've got:
Top 10 Answers of the Quiz, The Awards (not wanting to copy Deisler) just the winner and the loser, the stats of each round, which questions I genuinely knew, The Derp Award

Any ideas would be welcome!

[SnakeXe]

How about the Derp Award sponsored by Mr Derp?



I nominate Flamers

[Flamers]

Or you could name it the Flamers Award in my honour

[HotChocolate]

The Derp Award, added

1 week to go and and anyone from SnakeXe can still win the quiz, is B.W.G feeling the pressure?

[HotChocolate]

Tamagushi Bashers FC (Pangaea) – Tamagochi would have been better

The guy who invented this song (rancer890) – I don’t wanna know how you found that.

Excuse Me? AND Is that Ice Hockey? (MattSpurs94) – You can’t answer questions with questions and expect points

FC ****youharda (Nobby_McDonald) – Ph instead of F would have been more realistic and accepted!

Torvill and Dean (Flamers) – Taking on a bunch of husky men and winning the NHL? No chance!

Robbie “I have played for all 10 of my boyhood teams” Keane (hrbfcrule) – The best jokes are true!

I don’t know but whatever it is, he’s been a lifelong supporter of that name (deltablue) – Read above.

[deltablue]

Given he got 11, I'd say the answer is... no.

[Flamers]

I thought my answer to 5 was quite humourous

[HotChocolate]

1. What nationality is Zenit St Petersburg’s Danny?

2. What is Lady Gaga’s real name?

3. Who is the current Manager (Head Coach) of Montreal Impact?

4. The Abraham Lincoln statue (memorial) is in which USA State?

8. Paris Hilton (that famous person that shouldn’t be famous) is how old?

9. Who has received more caps for Brazil, (the) Ronlado or Ronaldiniho?

10. Name all 17 of the weight classes in WBA boxing.

11. Which year was the last time Liverpool won the Premier League (top tier)?

12. What is the capital of Kenya?

13. Who is currently bottom of La Liga (as of today, Tuesday 20^th March)?

14. Kansas City Royals is a team in which sport?

15. Who are the past 3 winners of the AFC Champions League?

16. Who won the Australian Grand Prix back in 2002?

17. Hatem Ben Arfa currently plays for which club?

18. Which song has these opening lyrics: I call you when I need you, my hearts on fire?

19. This logo belongs to which club?

20. What is the name of David Camerons cat (or known as the cat that lives at 10 Downing Street)?

[HotChocolate]

I thought my answer to 5 was quite humourous

Since when is this considered humorous?

[SnakeXe]

4. The Abraham Lincoln statue (memorial) is in which USA State?

Which one? There's loads. The massive marble one, or any of the myriad smaller bronze ones?

[Flamers]

I think I might have got 2 this week

[deltablue]

I wonder how many people will put 'K' for 12. Already know I won't get much this week. Will refrain from pointing ot the 2 mistakes you made.

[HotChocolate]

Which one? There's loads. The massive marble one, or any of the myriad smaller bronze ones?

The absolute huge one, the main/biggest one.

Marble one.

[HotChocolate]

You might as well point them out, I'm ashamed my standards have dropped.

[hursty2]

Q7 needs changing...

[HotChocolate]

Q7 needs changing...

I've changed it. Horrible mistake to make. I missed out the word 'Final'.

Cheers

[SnakeXe]

The absolute huge one, the main/biggest one.

Marble one.

Ok cool, answers sent! I think I got about 14 or 15.

[hursty2]

I've changed it. Horrible mistake to make. I missed out the word 'Final'.

No worries.

[rancer890]

Sent. Not sure how much I would get right.

[ManUTactician247]

For the first time in a while, I'm confident of getting more than half!

[Flamers]

I sent mine before the updated questions :P

[deltablue]

I've changed it. Horrible mistake to make. I missed out the word 'Final'.

Cheers

That's one, I also query whether Brazil ever capped a player called 'Ronlado'.

[SnakeXe]

That's one, I also query whether Brazil ever capped a player called 'Ronlado'.

I like it, sounds more Scottish.

[Nobby_McDonald]

Either I'm thick or a couple of people use the internet to find out answers.

Twenty questions, or great, even more to get wrong this week!

[SnakeXe]

Either I'm thick or a couple of people use the internet to find out answers.

Either that or they have one of these!

I mean I'm fairly good at pub quizzes, and my borderline-obsessive devouring of football media has meant I've got much better marks than I would had the entire set of questions been random, and there's still people with massively higher scores than me.

[ssestig]

Same here SnakeXe.
