gkneil Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 8/10 for Fri I love these kind of things. I worked out 7, guessed lucky on 1. There's 1 I've answered incorrectly that I've no idea how my answer isn't correct and there's a final one that I've no idea what it means though the first 2 items of the sequence align perfectly on 2 topics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Worked out 5, scored 8. Very happy with that. Would like to know what the f**k the others were about, though. Maybe @QuizOfTheDay could come back and let us know? (In spoiler tabs, obviously). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gkneil Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Spoiler with what I answered. I believe we're an honest bunch. If anyone wants to put a spoiler reply in for answers 4 & 8 that I didn't get and maybe an explanation on how 6 can be worked out which I guessed that would be grand. Spoiler 1. M, V, E, M, J, S, U...? - Planets of the solar system so answer was N for Neptune O N M L 2. 2016 Brasilia, 2000 Canberra, 1996 Washington DC... - Year of Olympics and the capital of the country they were held in so answer is 1992 - Madrid for the Barcelona games 1988 Toronto 1992 Madrid 1992 Berlin 1988 Seoul 3. He, Ne, Ar, Kr...?Xe - Easy for chemistry folk, Noble gases of the periodic table and Radon (Rn) was missing Rn Og Cl "blank" 4. 2019 LH, 2009 JB, 2000 MM...? - I never got this and can't work it out. LH 2019 & JB 2009 both fit the F1 world champions of that year (Hamilton and Button) and also fit the 2nd places of Sports Personality in those years, which I found afterwards when I thought it may have been first place winners. I ended up going for 1990 AA as I wondered if MM was a spelling error for MS and that AA was an error for AS. No idea what 1992 BB is 1994 FQ 1992 BB 1989 NR 1990 AA 5. November, Alpha, Tango... - NATO abbreviation, so answer is Oscar Oscar Overlord Orange Orwell 6. BlackBurn, DunDee, LLandudno, NorthamptoN...? - I guessed Southend-on-Sea but not sure how you work that out ShrewSbury SaliSbury SwanSea Southend-on-Sea 7. TFATF, 2F2F, TFATF:TD, F&F, FF, F&F6, F7, TFOTF...? - The Fast & The Furious Films. Answer is F9 TAF F9 FTF 9F9F9 8. rior, lanning, reparation, revents, iss, oor...?erformance - I know this saying where P has been dropped. I assumed nothing was missing and answered C with a blank as P is missing from them all. No idea why it is answer B "andas" orridge andas "blank" ope 9. 111, 222, 33333, 4444, 5555...? - This is tied to how many letters spell the number. So 1 (one - 111) etc so answer is 666 for six 6666 666 66666 66 10. SC - DN, GL - OHMSS, RM - LALD, TD - TLD, PB - G...? - This is Bond actors along with their first film. Sean Connery - Dr No etc etc. Answer is DC - CR for Daniel Craig - Casino Royale VL - NTTD DC - CR VL - QOS DC - S 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I see they have now fixed question 8 so that it makes sense. I should get an extra point. Fucking BOOOOO! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Question one... You've basically got this but the years are the most recent in which the Summer Olympics was NOT held in a capital city. So 1992 was hosted in Barcelona hence why Madrid is correct answer. Question six... The capital letters indicate the postcode, so you're looking for the city that has postcode SS, which is Southend-on-Sea Question eight... The saying is prior planning prevents piss poor performance so answer is performance. This answer and question was wrong when I took the quiz, though. Would also like to know what the f**k question four was on about. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Love these types of quizzes. Knew the connection for all of them but admit to guessing two (one of which I'm still not 100% sure why part of the answer is right but I was confident with the other part). The year and initials one - I get why it's the year but not the letters 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Jeremy Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 5 for Friday. Not sure how as I pretty much guessed all of them. 60 for the cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
