Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Still have the only 10 today - am waiting for Mancie to come out of the woodwork and spoil my party yet again:D

A few less people have played for the last few days for some reason...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Which was the banal question Sue? Have no memory:rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Sorry so banal I can't remember... it was a few days ago.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Right i am having a moan and there's nothing you can do to stop me, i did a good time today of 50 secs yes 50 secs me and then you lot go and spoil it (stamping my foot at this point) i am now going to scream and scream until i'm sick whilst lying on the floor and thrashing my feet about. In other words i am going to have a good paddy:D:D:D




If you believe that you'll believe anything just glad to get under a "minuet" for only the second time i think , i will have to check my diary i wrote it down the last time it happened :D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I sympathise with you, Dave.
What more can we do?.....all correct in less than a minute....we can hold our heads high!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

You ain't seen banality...yet.

Wait until the questions, about what passes for etiquette in America, start popping up.

They are truly stupid.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

It seems like only yesterday.

That you were moaning you'd never do it under a minute.

Now look at you.

I see thirty second scores by Easter.

;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

We had one last year, I remember being pretty gobsmacked.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

That Mancie has done it again, sneaking in front of me and making me lose some points:(:rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

It's something you have to accept.

I have.

Mancie is very trivial.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Am miffed again - you sneaky lot!:mad::D

Did a decent time with 10 and am only 6th now -it's not fair, I'm not playing anymore:eek::p

I have far better things to do with the 47 seconds I wasted today trying to be Trivial. Am wasting yet more precious time now!!!:rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Have pm d Stanleymad for a change... polish my halo :angel:

But I think it may need more than one person...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Right i did categories & people wanted random, i change it to random & people change their mind again wanting it back categories!! If i change it back then it stays as i set it, i dont play quiz so i cant be accused of being bias. Think as im the hostess i should run it without persuasion :p

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I will change it back on sunday:)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Well, coming 9th, with 10 right in 47 seconds must be some kind of record.

Am calling in re-enforcements for tomorrow!:eek:

Fingermouse - Opening Title - YouTube

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Yeah -will start re-reading The Bible, toute-de-suite! Oops, pardon my French!;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Thank you Stanleymad:)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Thanks stanleymad:):):)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Reached my peak at 5th place this month -back to 6th today -think that's it for this month -bad day today. If Mancie plays will probably only have 3 points:( Never mind, have won a few days which is always a result...:D Will be glad of a change on Sunday must admit...Hope there are some new interesting categories.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

You've won more individual days than I have.

Moaning Minnie.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Don't seem to have your consistency -either good or very, very bad!

Too up and down -need to get a grip, can't even blame UK questions these days:D

I am not a Moaning Minnie , more like a pan of bubbling porridge, thick and sputs every now and again;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I'm just embarrassing at the moment.

Mediocre.

I live with the shame.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Careful what you say, we "mere mortals" might be offended:rolleyes::D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

After winning 3 days on the trot (probably) i have decided to withdraw my request for change!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Lol, too late Norwichspeedy.

Roll on Sunday.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

OMG nearly caught "Norwichspeedy" today -my fastest ever time! 35Secs

IT CAN BE DONE:D

Mad because I actually hesitated on one so could have beaten him and have caught Rindy too....am the three "E"s!:eek:

EUPHORIC, ECSTATIC AND ELATED.:p

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Doesn't take much!!:rolleyes:

Well done, Di.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Beat the dexterously challenged?

I finished in 15 seconds.

It took the same time again to move my hand, to click Finish.

;):D:p

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

To be honest i'm glad some of the new players have caught up with fast times,just to prove it can be done! my fastest on fun trivia "piece of cake" is about 18 secs,but there are some who can answer 10 correct in 10 secs!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

You'll not dampen my enthusiam all the same - am pretty pleased with my result and will keep working at it until i can halve my time again!

Perhaps if I invest in a new pair of eyes or some laser surgery, the sacrifices one has to face in the name of Trivia:rolleyes::D

If, as NS says, some people do 10 in 10 seconds anything is possible...

Watch this space;):)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Back down to earth with a bump -always the way.

One guess wrong, one click wrong, trying to go fast. :(

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Long month this one;)

Well done Susie, Rindy, Micmacc etc -still haven't quite made it into top 5 this month.

Looks like we'll be having a change soon -return to categories.

Good luck all for next month.:) :D

Thanks Steve for K...!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Yes well done Susie.

Started today joint top, and ended third.

Oh well.

Hard luck Mick.

You can console yourself with winning the most individual number of days.

Good luck for March, everyone.

Think you might be keeping my backside warm Italian Giddy Kipper, by just snatching fith place.

Congratulations.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Honoured I'm sure -can't think of anywhere I'd rather be;):D xx

Challenge will be renewed against Steve and Dave -just to keep things interesting next month.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Whoops.

Should read 'filth'.

Sorry.

;)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Well done everyone, lets see how it goes now we are back on categories.Dianne you did well this month beating both myself and steve quite convincingly .I got off to a bad start and never recovered ah well will have to try harder this next month good luck to all.:D:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Thanks everyone, it was a good fight but I think Mancie might have walked it if he were here.

OH WELL, TOMORROW IS ANOTHER MONTH... SORRY CAPS LOCK ON TOO LAZY TO TURN IT OFF :rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Yes, you're slightly less trivial then Mancie.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Don't apologise - after all where there's muck there's brass!;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Think he's probably paddling in warm Caribbean waters as we write -lucky blighter!;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I made him go to rehab.

He said, 'No, no, no.'

But I insisted 'Yes, yes, yes.'

;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Well done, everyone!
A good month's quizzing and next month should be even better....

Good win, Sue.
Impressed with Anne and Dianne this month as well.
...oh and bad luck, Dave......your time will come!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!

The increasingly complex workings of my grey matter made me think of this earlier when I heard this song on the radio....

Not quite the Caribbean - hope Mancie wasn't on the Costa Allegra...!;):rolleyes:

Amy Winehouse - Girl from Ipanema - YouTube
:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Love that song, but never heard her version.

Still haven't.

Sounds like someone from Burnley, speaking in tongues.

:eek:

Is it playing normally for everyone else?

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Amy can't beast Astrud, on this one.

Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz: THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA - 1964 - YouTube

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Absolutely! Iconic song -such a unique, pure voice you can feel the longing...

Had never heard the Amy W. version either before yesterday, sorry you can't hear it properly it's "different" but not bad...:)

It's Brazil isn't it -my geography not being up to much...;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I've listened to it now.

My headphone wasn't properly connected.

I prefered the Dingle, speaking in tongues.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Well done for today Dave - keep that thinking cap on -don't make it too much of a habit though, this winnin' lark;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Dave, you are the Quiz Messiah....!!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Just lucky , the questions are easy if you know the answers thats the law of quizzing. Here endeth the first lesson see you all again tomorrow for some more enlightened wisdom:D:D:thankya:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Thought Mancie was on holiday -pretty quick -should have had at least 2 weeks!:D

Welìcome back Dearie -was missing you;)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Well done for today Dave -the only 10 so far! Think this might take you to number one spot!:thankya:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Odd quiz day today -should shake things up a bit!

Well done Steve!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

When I see questions like that I wonder why I'm wasting my time, but yes, well done Steve.

I'm amazed that anybody knows the answers to such things.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Tealeaf has got 7 too - i changed one guess and the first guess would have been right -must learn to stop doing that -wouldn't have made much difference though!:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I changed two from right to wrong today - don't normally do that.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

First intuition is nearly always right i find...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Wow, might even win this one....!!!
Think I was due a bit of luck.

Now kneel before me....!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I kneel to no man (especially one who knows to much about 80's australian sitcoms):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Not luck Steve -Trivaility at it's best!:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Looks like you've won today Steve -15 points as it was a good turnout - seem to have got away with murder myself holding on to seven points with 3 right answers. Whew!:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Seem to have got away with it pretty well today too -8 points -thought I'd blown it right away, to be honest. :rolleyes::D

Wonder when my béte noir -"UK" will come out to torment me...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Might not have UK this time - if it cycles weekly we could have Geography or History? tomorrow.
Anyway, you'll be ok, speed is your secret weapon....whereas the likes of me have to really on wit and wisdom.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Haven't had religion yet...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

It's certainly more varied with the new system of categories.

I need to wake up a bit -should have had 7 today, one changed answer and one i thought was right and then plumped for a different answer.

In any case better than all speed trials...

Wonder when UK is going to pop-up and scupper my results...:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Oh dear, Sue.

Not a good couple of days for you!! Cracks are beginning to show.....

You need to "get down with the kids" and watch more MTV.....!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Just cos you've beaten me two days running!

If I stuff my brain with pop lyrics I won't have room for owt else. At my age those little grey cells are getting fewer and fewer...

Err... what's MTV???? :eek::rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Still waiting for literature and religion, both of which we've had last time we had categories.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I think things are fine as they are!:)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

It's fine by me too -bit of a change and of course you can't know everything.

Some are very consistent, others like me are on a see-saw - that's just how I am,I actually clicked that pork was poisonous for dogs the other day!:o My mind was elsewhere, am doing my best to concentrate and hope to start a good cycle of results as from tomorrow!

To be honest on the days when I have done badly recently I've still managed to keep enough points to be afloat, been quite lucky really!:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

It's where they show them there new-fangled music videos...!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Depends if your dog is a Muslim or not:D:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Only have cats Dave - thought they had doggy chocs as treats...:rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Wise words, Garinda.

You wouldn't happen to be related to one of the last nine eternal Guru's who protect and defend mankind? Just a thought -something to do with the "Eastern-babe" sounding Username...;):D

As to my being "sad" - quite the opposite, today has been an excellent day all round, warm sunny and full of life, real and fictional as created by yours truly.

Facts acquired over a lifetime are many and varied, we are all human encyclopedia's, have checked -looks like most have played already and my earlier attempt at helping a few hasn't affected results ( won't happen again, promise:o) Therefore I can share why I knew a certain actor's birth date, a fact like any other. Over twenty years ago I went to see Born on the 4th of July at the cinema, probably one of his best films -even though he didn't play the usual "boy beautiful" role, enjoyed the film and read up about it to find that he was actually born on the 3rd -would have been just too Hollywood for it to have been the 4th don't you think:rolleyes:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Buttonsmum played yesterday, and hasn't played today.

Not telling you off.

You must do as you see fit.

Just rather unsporting to discuss questions, whilst the quiz is still in play.

I certainly wouldn't want to know what questions were about to be asked.

Makes it all a bit pointless.

Not very British.

Rather American.

Like having a paddy, and throwing your racquet around the court.

:rolleyes::D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!

Just wanted you to know how much I'm suffering, only in part because you slapped me so hard, but then you know me and the fine line between pleasure and pain...

I will not back down until you call me the Championship Referee - you can say what you like, but you're just a common or garden chair umpire, I want the line judges, Eagle eye, arbiter, arbitrator, commisaire , you name it ...otherwise I'm not playing with you lot ever again, so there!:tongueout

(I promise it will never happen again, ever...me and my big mouth:o;):D)

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

We were talking in another thread about unwatchable characters. The actor in question is one I have never been able to stand - just thinking about him makes me squirm.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Didn't make any difference in the end. Buttonsmum has just played, and she came bottom.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I've been told that I bear a striking resemblance to TC.....and I don't mean Top Cat!!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Oh nooo.. I do hope not...

I bet you're taller than he is - and you don't have an American accent (do you?).

Anyway how come you're posting at 9.30? Thought you'd be watching Paxo's Empire (as I am).

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Can't watch "Empire" tonight cos Anne's watching "Scott & Bailey" (brilliant play on words!) the new series has started tonight and I'm way down the TV pecking order in our house!!
.....I'll watch it later on iplayer.

And I'm much taller than TC....!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Your right steve you do have a look of Tommy Cooper:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Does that mean i'm not last anymore:alright::alright::alright::alright::D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Only when I wear my fez (in private)!!!

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I knew, and was hoping, you'd post that reply!

:p

Spooky.

:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Don't worry.

It could have been Tom Conti's birthday, you were blabbing about.

;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

And another thing steve how come you know 6 correct things about "Celebrities" . To be honest i have never heard of most of um:confused:Do you have a subscription to Heat magazine?:D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Very droll, Dave, but now you come to mention it...

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

That's really not the point.

It's about fair play.

An even playing field.

Similar to us all not being American.

;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Now he is a different kettle of fish - I could watch and listen to him all day. And his birthday is St Cecilia's day, 22 November 1941. The same day, but different year, as JFK's assassination.

So he's a Sagittarius like me.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Have handful of pink himalayan salt to rub into the wound -just a bit more pain;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Mmmm! Made a lovely Greek in Educating Rita!;):D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

I know you really enjoy all that catholic guilt, and suffering.

My gift to you.

Give, give, give.

:angel:

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Salad?

Urn?

National costume?

Statue?

Stuffed vine leaf?

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

That's me.

Take, take, take...

Or should that be gimme, gimme, gimme?:D

Love the shiny halo -suits you down to a tee and reflects the sunshine so nicely:hothothot

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

Nooo, it's not what it looks like!!
There were couple of music questions - Duane Allman was a guitar player and I knew how he died and I knew the Wilson sisters were in Heart. Knew the John Wayne question and one other.....after that I got lucky!!
....and now I've nearly caught you up.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

If i remember rightly he was after removing his vine..or..fig leaf wth the innocent Liverpudlian lass! Why do i remember that scene:confused:

With a very poor Greek accent " I wanna.....****a you!"

Beware Greeks bearing gifts especially when they want to get their fig leafs off...:rolleyes::D

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
 

No you've got the wrong film - it was Shirley Valentine...
