I've set up a Quiz [Gardenerscorner Masterminds]

Just a thought folks regarding speed......... I have just realized that I am not certain that I haven't had an anti-virus check running while I have been doing the quiz.....I have a number of security programmes that run through my complete computer files at different times of the day. They do slow the machine down. It will be worth checking that if you are security mad like me and have these things running full checks that you do not pick a time to do the quiz when one of them is scanning your files. As I say just a thought.

If we ever stand a chance of catching Slinky up time wise I reckon we should make sure all other programmes are closed! Is that the sort of mind games Slinky! Lol

Thank you for your get well messages. I think I need a quick rub down with an oily rag!

 

Wow Shiney, that's damn decent of you Sir! Best make it quick my son return's from his fishing trip in France tonight.......been really quiet here all week....heaven! Lol

Hey guys don't ask me how I did it but I beat Slinky's speed..........glad I checked out I had no other programmes running. No more likely the glass of cabinet sauvignon that did it!

 

Well done your top 10 today Moyra - must be feeling better!

 

Boo-hoo, only 6 today. I hate history:( Well done moyra.

Think todays score answers your question slinky! Can we have some easy ones please

cheers

 

Read my lips, as someone once famous said! It's the glass of Cabernet Sauvignon that did it. :-)

 

I'll use that as my excuse today - I haven't had any beer yet

cheers

 

That's the ticket Borrowers but you have to do it while you consume the first glass, not later whatever you do!!

 

I want to know why a score of 7 answers scores less than a score of six because of the time quotient. Shouldn't the time only be used to differentiate between two scores of the same value? Just asking?!

 

Too complicated for me to answer moyra, perhaps slinky will be able to explain - in simple language please

I can't believe i got the JFK question wrong by answering Martin Luther King (jr actually!), I did a big project on mlk at school - doh!

cheers

 

Thinking about it I guess they must put a time limit on answering questions or people could google and get all ten right in say about an hour. Lol Slinky think I have answered my own question.

 

:D:thumb:

cheers

 

Let me guess borrowers you had a Question about who's life was celebrated on a date in January or something similar and JFK and Martin Luther King junior were two of the possibilities? I wish we all got the same questions then we could compare answers afterwards.............reminds me of my Ham Radio Exams.........we all met up and were exchanging answers afterwards and I left the group thinking oh my God they have all got different answers to me........I've failed! As it turned out I had passed both papers with credits much to everyone elses disgust as I was the only female in the group! Still brings a smile to my lips when I think of it 25+ years later.
