So sorry to bother you, and can I say we love watching all your different programmes, however my problem is with the F word quiz, I am confused as to whether the scores add up each day, or whether someone has the time to reach over 2000 points in one day, and that is why my name never (sorry ONCE)appears on the leader board. I assumed that the total points you earned were totalled at the end of the week, but obviously not, as I know that I have earnt the points in a day or two, to show up on the leader board.
Sorry if this is not important, but even though I love doing the quiz, and some answers really stick in my memory, I just think that I have got the wrong end of the stick, or quiz, should I say!!
Please save the TURKEYS!!

Hi Minkey

I want to know the answer to this too....or does it really mean some sad person is sitting answering 2000+ questions in one sitting....when do they find time to cook?


Someone placate us and give us an answer.

The answer to your question is that the scores seen on the leader board are achieved in one sitting. Wink

I would like to get a higher score on the quiz, but can only answer about ten questions before I get an error page - so the people who are scoring 2000+ obviously know how to get further than the error page!

It has happened every time I have tried to do this quiz, I have reported it, but it still seems to do the same thing! Very annoying! Mad

The answer is obvious really, CHEATING, one way or another, otherwise it's surely impossible to get 3200 correct.

The questions get repeated after about 100.

I'm not sure if it was the food one I was doin or one of the other Channel 4 ones... just remembered.. it was the 'Back In The Day' one.. got over 100... all the questions were then repeated... so just a matter of sittin there clickin on what you already know is the right answer for as long as you can... or before the error page trips you up. (as in my case... everytime!!!)

PuRp3LL gave you the correct info.... Its not a case of cheating its an endurance marathon with the chance you may get written off with a technical error and loose your score,this quiz is full of gremlins and well done to the winner,it must have taken around 8 hours+. That my friend shows a will to win. Wink

A will to win? over 3200 right answers, you're having a laugh, I'd rather have a will to live

If someone can sit and do that for 8 hrs they need to get out more.

HAHAHA - I had the same thoughts... surely, it would be more cost effective to simply BUY a hamper!! I have got 15 correct answers so far before the error screen... but frankly not got the time to sit and play for 8 hours + and so won't win a prize either.... some of the questions are pretty good though lol.

I am sorry I haven't replied yet to any of the replies sent to me, to be honest, it is the first time I have looked on the forum since I joined, because of Christmas etc. But I was so excited to receive so many, after all, who knows who, if anyone, will read my drivvel!! I only went on the forum again to see if there were any comments on the sudden END of the quiz. Did I miss an annoucement or something, or am I really behind with the news that we cannot now play the quiz, or reach the homepage of the f-word??!!!

Maybe they realised like most people, except chop stuey, who believes it was all above board, an endurance test for those with an active brain and a will to win,(scuse me while I wet myself laughing)that there was a way round the quiz and certainly 3000+ right answers does point to that.
Maybe and just maybe, that's why.

Make your mind! One minute you are praising the "endurance and will to win" of someone sitting in front of a pc for 8 hrs+, then you post that??
