Motion finishes the round.

 

Most American money is 75% cotton and 25% flax, as cotton paper is hardly to counterfeit. Anyway, thought I'd throw in a trick one for ya!

 

Next round!

ROUND 4

 

 

Only a few obscure questions. I tried to make them ones that couldn't just be googled in a few seconds. :heh:

 

1) Irn Bru, the popular Scottish drink, is made from what (according to the advert)? (Bonus point if you record yourself saying it in a Scottish accent)

Haggis has a good memory, the advert hasn't been on for years.

2) Name the 4 members of the band 'Queen'.

Strider's too quick for Haggis on this one, beats him by a matter of seconds.

 

3) Which forumite started the thread for the previous NE Quiz?

Cube gets it (and completely and utterly confuses me whilst doing so)

 

4) Which ex-forum member made the text on my sig?

Supergrunch gets it after yet more confusion

 

5) Which university will I be attending come September?

Motion's been paying attention in the University thread

 

6) Name 3 forum members who won an iPod from the Coca Cola thing. (1 point for each member. Only name 1 person as you won't get anymore than 1 point)

Ellmeister and Hellfire get 2 of them and EchoDesiato grabs the 3rd point.

 

7) My brother is a member here, what's his username?

And Eddage finishes off yet another wonderful round

 

8) Where did I go for 3 weeks in June with my school?

Sparko's done his homework

 

9) Which forum member did I meet at the midnight launch of the Wii at GameStation in Stirling?

Coolness Bears takes it with the hint

 

10) Who were the genious' behind the Great NE Name Change-a-thon?

My Buttons are Magic still cries herself to sleep at night about that day

Can we come up with more imaginative questions than ones that seem to go along similar lines about the host? One of two questions about the person is nice but when when you have seven or eight it starts to get silly.

Questions like this are good because you can't just type in 2 words to Google to find out the answer. You either know it or you don't (I haven't kept any of those answers a secret, I know I've posted about them all on the forum at one point or another).

That didn't happen with Ash's round, you just have you be a bit more imaginative.
