    First 10 in over a week. Still didn't beat Magicme or Schumi, what's the point of that.

    You were slow. Tough.

    What's the point of the italics? Are Magicme or Schumi books?

    Weren't too bad today either, a couple that took a bit of thinking about.
    Also there were two that I'd got before, I wonder how many questions there actually are?
    And I just have to get a mouse for this laptop, having to make sure you un-highlight the buttons before using the down arrow is doing my nut in!

    It's done on cumulative total scored MM, so sorry but

    Nah the scoring is a bit random alright, it's pretty savage, literally!
    A better indicator is your average points per game but even that isn't perfect.
    Your score is based on how many people played that day, which is not fair IMO. You can get as little as 10 or 12 points for a win (as one of mine was), even if it's 10/10 in 50 seconds (which it wasn't).

    I am anyway. I don't know about Magicme, do they have books in Monaghan?

    gustavo,
    So far you are doing very well.

    I have more than a small problem with (how should i describe)........types from outside of Dublin.
    I get 10!(TEN) and yet some people are ranked above me, just 'cos i fell asleep while I was answering some questions. It wasn't entirely my fault.

    Falling asleep is something I will have to stay vigilant against.

    (Masons; Mafiosi; Illuminati are not used in the above sentences. Be warned.)

    it can't possibly hurt.
    All they will find is my
    beer and my shirt."

    I think it has more to do with the fact no-one is likely to know the answer to baseball, American Football, Colleges etc questions. If they were on politics, geography, history then fair enough you'd have a chance.
    Personally, I'd like the questions toughened up where, for instance, a good 9 or a fast 8 is in with a chance of winning, not just the fastest one with out a baseball question in it
