August 3, 201312 yr comment_164678 So, just finished off the last round - really good fun; shame there wasn't a few more people, but ah well. Massive thanks to Sidders for running this; can't imagine it was easy sorting out all the questions and organising it all. Hope this can become a yearly occurrence! Eagerly awaiting the results...
August 3, 201312 yr Author comment_164681 Glad you enjoyed it Josh! Like you say, it's a shame there couldn't be more of you but some have work, many are at Thorpe; I'm sure I'll get the rest of the answers in he coming days! Just so you all know, I can't give you your scores on this round until everyone has either finished or the week grace period after the quiz to get PM answers in is over. This is because everyone's answers affects a lot of other people's answers, being that points are shared, etc. You'll receive the results when I work them out on Saturday, August 10th. Really enjoyed tonight guys, glad you lot did too. Looking into variations of this quiz and ways to improve it already. Sidders
August 3, 201312 yr comment_164682 Great fun the quiz was. there were ups and downs, and that last round is so frustrating, but also really fun. Thanks to Sidders for organising it, and I hope this like many others become a yearly thing. this should be in the TPM awards(just an idea). Eager to know my results!!
August 3, 201312 yr comment_164683 another idea( because we would eventually run out of roller coaster/theme park related questions) maybe a general knowledge or somethign like that round(remembered that we were talking about a pub quiz in chat) just another idea. might be naff but still...

August 10, 201312 yr Author comment_165111 Excellent efforts for the last round of the quiz, guys! Some really really good answers and I can tell a lot of you made great use of the internet!

August 10, 201312 yr comment_165115 currently 14th!!!! OMG I like to thank again sidders for organising, as it would have been hard work and hope to find out the final score.
August 10, 201312 yr comment_165116 I didn't know I was holding the lead at one point so it's nice to find out I was It's very close near the top so this should indeed be very interesting! It was great fun to do and I hope another quiz happens Thanks very much for doing this Sidders
August 10, 201312 yr comment_165132 *cough* I was first this point last round scarycoasterboy was 3rd, it's jus I've slipped 3 spaces. *cough* But on a serious note thanks for the quiz it's been fun and has provided something different to what we have on here Surprised certain other people are not further up the board to be honest (no offence) just a bit shocked I am where I am and other people who don't scream out the knowledge have come quite far up!
August 10, 201312 yr comment_165133 I'm happy with my 12th, I suppose I'd be classed as that since the people before me are drawing
August 10, 201312 yr comment_165137 Guys don't forget the joker round(round 4) basically everything can change!
August 11, 201312 yr comment_165150 Very excited to find out the leader board after the fourth round....thanks for the months worth of fun. Hope to do another quiz soon
August 11, 201312 yr comment_165174 Ooh, it is quite close at the top really, as the final round could throw up some serious twists and turns for the points. That Records Round looks to have cost me quite a bit; shoulda done me homework! Looking forward to the final result!
August 11, 201312 yr comment_165175 Disclaimer: I am in idiot. I did not read the rules and subsequently didn't use the internet or aim for unique answers!!!!!!! Grumble ...
August 13, 201312 yr Author comment_165232 Ooh, it is quite close at the top really, as the final round could throw up some serious twists and turns for the points. That Records Round looks to have cost me quite a bit; shoulda done me homework! Looking forward to the final result! Oh yes Josh! The Multiple Choice Round has changed quite a bit of that board! It's not over yet!
