Off Topic Triweekly Quiz (Mon/Thu/Sat)

Enjoy

 

My first try at this. 1 guess 2 I knew

 

8 ! 6 guesses , I should do next lottery

 

Ditto @gelders pie . I knew most of them with a few guesses. Cheers @Blond Bombshell

 

8 for me this week, didn't rush it and was having a good run from question 2 onwards... then reality kicked in

 

Stand by to be amazed.

5 minutes...

 

11 (eleven).

Couple of calculated guesses and a couple of pure luck guesses....knew maybe 5 or 6.

Cheers again @Blond Bombshell, enjoy these quizzes. Even more now I'm getting some right....haven't been in the Zero club for a few weeks now.

 

Outstanding

 

I matched you mate.

Over the moon with 11. I knew more than I guessed too. Might do a little celebratory dance

 

I somehow got 11, I think I only actually knew one. Time to put the lottery on.

 

Middle of the road 8 for me ( Chirpy Cheep Cheep), which took less than Snaggey's 10 minutes (after he said that he'd do it in 5, the lying bastard)

 

A pathetic 4.

 

9/16 I was pleased with that...
...until I saw all those who scored 11
Must try harder

Score was fair kicked myself on one question as I knew the answer but pressed the wrong button, couple of educated guesses, OK guesses so overall a fair result. Roll on next Thursday

Edit Cheers @Blond Bombshell

 

You're welcome... I guessed one correctly as answer 1 hadn't been used in the previous couple of questions... was annoyed I didn't guess the Sparks question correctly, or I'd have been straight on to Snaggey

A respectable 4, got the first 3 guesses then the wheels came off. Knew the last question, so there shouldn't be anyone in the Zero club today...

Enjoy

 

No zero club for me this week, a very respectable 5 (five).

Cheers again @Blond Bombshell.

 

2 both pure guesses.

 

7/7 today
BUT
When I did it on Friday I only got 2/7 which was rather annoying as I knew the 2 I got and every other question I narrowed down to 2 answers and then chose the wrong one.
At least my short term memory is fine, by that I mean I can remember what I did on Friday come Monday morning. Let me just qualify that comment. I can remember what I did on Friday morning, Friday night is still a little bit hazy.

 

Just 4 complete guesses.......cheers @Blond Bombshell

 

Seven complete guesses resulted in 4 out of 7 for me (the first 4 . . . . and I was getting excited)
