Well, this seems to be working so it's time for game three...

This will be the last game that counts towards the leaderboard for January. A winner will be declared on Saturday. A new leaderboard will start next week for February.

Incase thee hast forgotten the rules...

• There are three rounds in each game. Each question is harder than the one before it.
• Each question in round one is worth 5 points, round two is 10 points and round three is 15 points.
• Checking your answers is not allowed (i.e. googling them).
• However, you have two chances to get help throughout the quiz. These lifelines take the form of being allowed to check two of your answers on Google, but you need to indicate that you have done so. These answers will only get you five points each, regardless of which round they are in.
• To give your answers, please reply with only the question number and the letter A, B, C or D. This way it shouldn't be spoiled for those answering after you. I'll probably not give the correct answers for a couple of days.

I'm also having another lazy day so have not googled any of my answers this week after only now realising I only get 5 points for them so I'm a bit of a gambler this week.

[Yudster]

Hah, I didn't google any either kendra. Be afraid - be very afraid!

[kendra k]

that's actually good, it means i have less pressure to stay on top. i should be doing stuff like my laundry or this stupid website so i can get dressed, get the drawing of a penis washed off the hood of my car, get my blood test, and get down to santa barbara.

[Yudster]

I know what you mean. I'm already resigned to it all going pear shaped in round 4 though.

Who drew the penis? I hope they used washable media.........

[kendra k]

no idea who drew the penis. i think it happened last week when i drove to san francisco. the media was dirt and muck.

[Ezza]

Sunny if its any consolation you beat me

[Sunny So Cal]

Just now? Why? Are the answers posted and I've missed it??
Maybe I shouldn't even come on here until I'm fully awake!

[MK Chris]

No, I'd imagine she's worked it out by Googling since.
