MikeO Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I know all of them up to £250,000 (and could have decent guesses from then on in) apart from the Grange Hill one because I never saw it so I wouldn't get past £500 without a lucky guess.

Anyway, end of discussion. I can't imagine the amount of times that somebody on this forum creates a thread, and the first reply is always a reply that ruins the said thread, be it you doing it, Dalziel, or anybody else. If you can't be constructive, try leaving well alone. You don't have to post in 'every' thread. Just post in the ones that interest you. If a thread needs moving, the mods just do it, rightly or wrongly, so there are no points scored for highlighting anything. It just sounds like a class snitch with misconceptions of self status. It doesn't 'help' the forum as you may think, but simply irritates people, and kills a thread before it has chance to start. I think it's up to the mods when the discussion ends also, or do you have special powers added to your account we don't know of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Thanks to everyone who participated (the text size has gone haywire but too tired to argue) Maybe one or two are in line for a prize of some sort, but been on the go since fucking first light and couldn't possibly put things into order right now, just about dead on my feet. Incidentally, watching the last bits of this program on Challenge (if possible without constant goddamn commercials) so maybe there could be another round in the near future. I will endeavor to see who has done what and got best scores at a more 'appropriate' time. Obviously there aren't cash prizes to be had, but other 'awards' of some merit that will doubtless be appreciated to the relevant names when the time arises.

Avinalaff Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I highlighted 'Game of chess' but the correct answer is The Fire Sermon. I should have read it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 I highlighted 'Game of chess' but the correct answer is The Fire Sermon. I should have read it properly. I had a guess at that one and chose The Fire Sermon as I liked the sound of it. I wouldn't have been there, anyway, as checked some I was unsure of after submitting my answers and wouldn't have got past £64,000 - Pan is right but I thought Pan had something to do with music so I chose Diana as she definitely had something to do with animals, though not flocks and herds.

Dalziel Kane Posted June 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I'm ready (just about) to go ahead with a proper game now and (as an inducement) prizes are up for grabs, but not sure on what format to continue. The test game seemed awkward with just presenting all the questions in one go, and a free for all, so if we were to do this properly, it really should be a one-on-one and one question at a time. That way, it will be a lot easier. Apparently you're not even supposed to copy trivia from the official book without the publishers permission but keep it quiet and maybe it would be better to just ask questions and general knowledge bits and pieces that you could make up and are aware of answers. That could be the best way forward from here on. Any volunteers should make themselves recognized sometime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
