Question 1 bugged again. That's 3 out of the last 4 quizzes it's bugged on just that question for me. There wasn't even a delay to loading this time so I answered with plenty of time.

Well this one went terribly for me...
Bugged on the first question, still dont get what Ned Flanders has to do with france or monaco, got brisbane in my notes because I thought it'd be by land area but I should have pointed down both, so noted for future quizzes!

I think it's meant to be Ned Flanders = Neighbor.

bug on Q1 today (non-visual sadly) but I still had something else wrong, so never mind. Sooo... what does "Monaco Ned Flanders" hint mean?

The Simpsons - Ned Flanders is their neighbor.

 

[andrew smith]

My losing streak ended too, no bug this time !

Still i don't get the "Monaco Ned Flanders" hint. When i'm writing it, NEd Flanders was for "neighbour", ok.

Sleepy, I went down an insane rabbit hole for a second reading way too far into "Flanders", trying to find some link between Belgium and Monaco and the Simpsons. Had the red yarn out and a wall of documents and photos.

Ned Flanders = neighbour.

monaco= france neighbor

oh okay, thanks. wouldn't have thought of that in a million years, pop-culture references don't work for me at all

EDIT: yeah, I searched deep into the historical territory of "Flanders" as well

There goes another "perfect streak" down the drain.....
No delays this time around.

Exactly the same problem here. No delay but I still got this bug.

It's very frustrating, it happens very often. I think the devs should try to fix this.

You aren't the only one - when this quiz rolled for the first time I had to ask my son for help (as with a lot of other stuff like this).
You are getting old when you stop understanding what your kids are talking about (without external aid).

We'll end up with a quiz where two winners split a nice payday.

For various reasons, I think the 10 second response time should be increased to 15 seconds.

 

[Jer7cho]

Damn, 87 place , no more room for mistakes , can we get another Freebies quiz

I don't think this will ever happen with how many people participate - unless it's some crazy twisted quiz where you have to either know answers by heart or get very lucky guessing it.
iirc, in the beginning it happened one time where there were like 10 winners or something... But there were significantly less people playing back then.

Only 34 people with a perfect score now, previously there were 50, theres a difference of 10 points up to #49, so what do you guys think made the 10 point difference here; the flanders hint or Q.1 bug?

Well we did have that one time, when our quizmaster put the wrong answer as the right one and 5 lucky people won 10 bucks each.

Flanders was what - # 3 or #4?
10 points is given for #1 only. But then again - it's not the first quiz in this run, so combined this + previous 5 it can be any combination...

Ah, yes - I was actually thinking about this one. My memory isn't that good.
But I think if this kind of mistake happens now we will have a riot.

Neddy-boy was Nr.6 unfortunately for me

I think the bug ding dong diddly did us in.

If it makes you feel better , I had no idea what Ned Flanders hint meant , its my general knowledge that came to rescue, but then I flopped on Australia question

I'm fairly sure, what we had back then qualifies as a riot, compared to standard forum activity here. Due to much larger amount of posts than usual, Stevens apology for the mix-up got a bit lost, so we had a heated argument whether the wrong answer is actually correct.

Sounds like an election.
