Majority of quizzes are guessing games though to be honest. Not sure why that's a problem. Maybe I'm the only one that enjoys guessing.

It’s not so much that, I just prefer quizzes where you have to work out the answer even if it requires clues. The never ending quiz often devolves into just listing players/numbers - but that’s on us to devise better questions I suppose.

I just feel like I can't win when it comes to the never ending quiz. Few people moaned with the questions I posted before as they were "too repetitive" I've even tried to change my approach and we are having the same problems again.

I’m not having a go at you Judders, it’s the nature of the thread in a way. I appreciate you changing your questions up and I’ve tried to do the same too.

The answer is correct, but it was during his 147, couple of reds left I think, and things were getting tense. He stopped, said his piece, walked over to his chair, blew his nose, wiped his hands … and history was made.

Over to you, Prop <ok>
