Administrators Popular Post Phil Parker Posted April 24, 2020 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2020 We can't get together for a pub quiz this year, but that doesn't mean you can rest your brain cells. Instead, Quizmaster Phil will be posting questions below using the latest in laser display boards. Scroll down now! There are 5 rounds, and you have 10 minutes to answer all the questions before the answers appear. No prizes as Phil has spent all the money on cake, it's just for fun. You will need a pen and paper. Don't turn up without one, we won't wait for you. Go to the toilet before you start too. After 10 minutes, I'll post the answers, and the next round. There will be no conferring, during the competition, but once all rounds are completed, threads will be set up for each round so you can argue amongst yourselves and boast about your scores. Remember, the Quizmasters decision is final. Got it? Right, let's fire up the monomedia all expenses spared laser display board with some more rules. 20 2 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Phil Parker Posted April 25, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 25, 2020 Times up! I hope you've written down all your answers - this thread will be re-opened for bragging about your scores at the end of the quiz. I'll also launch threads for each question so you can argue (incorrectly) that you know better than the Quizmaster. The next question will be along in 5 minutes. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Phil Parker Posted April 25, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 25, 2020 The bloke who comes around the pubs selling seafood has just been in. I asked if he had crabs legs, but it's just the way he walks apparently. Anyway, you'll be wanting answers. 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Phil Parker Posted April 25, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 25, 2020 Not sure about this pub. The photo on the peanut display appears to be Captain Kernow, and I'm worried if I buy a packet we'll see his pasties. Talking of things you have to look closely at, here's the answers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Phil Parker Posted April 25, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 25, 2020 Let's ROCK! Yes, it's the music round. I'll be spinning the wheels of steel and playing the platters that matter. All you have to do is spot the railway themed tracks. Turn your speakers up to 11 and click on the gramophone to start the final round. (Press play if the picture doesn't work) 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Phil Parker Posted April 25, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted April 25, 2020 There we go, that's the final round. I'll now open all the threads for you to tell everyone how well you've scored. Don't forget that RMweb drones are hovering by your windows to check you aren't fibbing. If you are, only bad things will come of this*. You have been warned. *You will be made to model steampunk railways. In S gauge. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony Teague Posted April 25, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 25, 2020 Started well with a solid 1 in each of the 1st two rounds, but then got surprisingly better to achieve a massive total of 13! I think I need to get out more - if only. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bigcheeseplant Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 20 points from big fact hunt! I got Tynwald which was a bit obscure. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted April 25, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Cor, just scraped in with an average of 5 per round so 25 in total (and I even got two on the music round, the other 8 were just a noisy jumble and I only thought there were 9 in total anyway). Good quiz apart from the Canadian flag errorin Round 3 because Canada did not adopt that flag until 1965 so a Jubilee can't have been named after it could it. But then if you say it could then surely Dominion of Canada would be just as good an answer? In which case I would be up to 26.
