OK time to put your thinking caps on.. There will be a vprize for the best efforts (top 3 performers) - I'm not empowered (am I?) to hand them out (details will follow)
Points will be awarded for partially correct answers/near misses (depending on my generosity) - the number of points does not necessary denote the number of answers required for each question but may reflect the amount of effort required to get the right answer or, sometimes, may suggest to you that the answer isn't as obvious as you might think!!
300 points is a maximum score - game ends Sunday week 6th April, midnight.
PM answers to me - please - I will update scores as often as I can!
