Her range of knowledge seems vast.

What do you make of her?
Nice, ordinary, must have a good brain in there.

Kevin Ashman I thought was a prat.

Was reading only today that Willliam G Stewart host of 15 to 1 is a keen beekeeper and Morris dancer!

Irene Thomas of Round Britain Quiz on the radio was my quiz heroine, would love to have met her.

Kevin Ashman comes across as a bit superciious.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!

I think may be permitted a grumble this morning...

It didn't really take me an hour today...

Went on the quiz site at about 9.35, clicked on the red arrow, wouldn't let me play, went off and did something more useful, came back an hour or so later, clicked again, submitted my answers and saw a time of over 3000 secs! it had been timing from my first attempt.

A lead of 13 points probably wiped out at one click as I will definitely be bottom today.

Blimey.

I thought I'd had a bad day.

Hard luck Susie.

If you click Standings, and then go back to Main, you usually can tell if everything's running on the site as it should be.

That's what I do. Although I was still caught out the other week.

Sure you'll be back on top tomorrow.

I did exactly that, Gary, following your advice from a previous experience. And it still turned round and bit me.

Bad luck Sue -just saw what hapened -don't worry one day won't make much difference in the end -i've come last about 3 times this month

It must be very annoying though, I can understand that...

Better luck for me today - about time!

Thank you for coming to my defence Dave -what an absolute bounder that QEC character -pistols at dawn!!!!!

Have already shot myself in the foot several times Steve, don't need the help of computer glitches...then of course, there is dear old Mancie who comes along last minute and usurps us all.

Sue will bounce back tomorrow, no problem. Rindy has also had a little fall today and is on the same points as her...fighters both, they will be laughing tomorrow I have no doubt

The truth will out.... although , of course , the smallest worm will turn when trodden on.....

Mind you tomorrow is another day...

When is the quiz going to go back to categories to make it a bit more diverse?

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!

I still find I trip up more often than not because of trying to go fast - didn't even read the one I got wrong today -just saw words from a song and clicked on any old answer -never get a guess right. Lucky me

Glad to see one of the newbies did well today -well done Steve R.

Even though he has been less than pleasant to me recently, I am gracious in defeat and will also congratulate the other Steve - don't make a habit of it though QEC!

Rindy bounced back as predicted and Sue is defending her first place too - 'fraid that Mancie and a few others still have to play though...
