The Holy Grail of course (at least in the Australian quiz which always has the added frisson of one or two "shot in the dark! questions) is 10, and very few players have ever achieved it. Outside the current table, I know WRK has - cannae mind who else have. I'd have to delve through my extensive records take a wild guess, similar to my answering technique. Anyway, this is all by the by. I'm gasping for a quiz so I'm gazumping Edmund and posting the quiz before he crawls out his scratcher. Hope it's not a soppy Valentine's one as I'm newly single and ganting on a 10/10. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=6193§ionId=1 edit. 6. Was never going to be a 10 with that set. Knew 3, guessed 3 so happy enough. There you go Edited February 13, 2017 by Jacksgranda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure what I plan to do with it right enough. Grandchildren are off the menu for me, but surely Young Jack might like a very special 18th birthday present? (assuming he's still under 18). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eckthearab Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Right folks, I have a query. WillieA had not posted his cup score by the 9am cutoff point though did send me his score about 4 hours ago (7pm ish) which I did not notice until 5 mins ago. I did post the scores several hours after receiving his score (which again I hadn't noticed). What is the general consensus around this as I wouldn't want to be unfair to Welshbairn who did post in time and I wouldn't want to have to be a total stickler as I realise this is a bit of fun and perhaps WillieA had genuine reason to not post in time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
