I asked t'other day, apparently it's some quiz in the States, big money involved.

[shaneystar2]

Yeee ha ...I wish they could have their own section.I don't mind helping anyone Dot especially on my fave Q&P section ..but I draw the line at wasting my time researching answers for a load of people who are only interested in winning a million dollars and who we will never see again once the contest is over.Plus the repeated questions ad infinitum.
Will they answer my Daily Telegraph cryptic clue? .....I very much doubt it.

[dot.hawkes]

why aye i knew that pet!!!!

but what i was implyin was, we have been taken over so to speak!!!!!!!!

imagine the quinnmartin production voice
THE INVADERS

is this online somewhere? I am not going to enter as most of them seem impossible to me, but I've answered one or two.

[dot.hawkes]

oh go on jno you know you want to

[shaneystar2]

Very Jeff Wayne ...
The chances of anything coming from mars are a milion to one but still ..........they come!

Same quiz, different year. Thank you Google. :-/

[shaneystar2]

You won't find it on line anywhere
You get it when you purchase Marlboro fags in the USA apparently

[dot.hawkes]

basically a bribe to kill yourself, cos aren't marlboro strong? or trendy lights?

[shaneystar2]

And ..according to the rules of this contest people are not supposed to seek help and are supposed to do their own research .Marlboro have posted as such on their website.Being a big multi national I suppose they have a spy in the sky.If you Google this there are whole websites and blogs devoted to it.
On principle I won't answer these questions even if I did know the answers.AB is a community and we all help one another....these people just want to pick our brains and give nothing in return.

Dot - I think we may just have stumbled upon a new entertainment now the evenings are drawing in.

Anyone care to join in as and when you find a pair?

awww, cut it out, you guys, I've got a bad case of repeating windows here...

[jno]

PS never been able to see why looking it up in a library is good research and asking a friend is good research and asking a stranger is bad research. Anyway, I'll answer questions if I feel like it ,so sucks to Marlboro

[A Chill Wind]

It's not so much that innocent Merkins have the temerity to come over here and seek enlightenment, but when the same Q's are repeatedly asked without a conclusive answer then sooner or later one of us bites.

Repeating windows, jno? It helps if your blanks are tucked into your blanks, y'know.

[shaneystar2]

Perhaps you will pop along to Q&P when I am stuck on the Telegraph Crossword then Jno ?

[tictactoe]

Added to the fact that none of them say please, thankyou or kiss my ****! I know it's a thorn in my side, I've said it before and I'll (no doubt) say it again, I do not like discourteous attitude, whether 'outside' of or 'inside' of cyberspace (we are human, after all - not automated). Even a tia, will do. What a difference it makes to you when you get acknowledged!

*rant over...I'll get back in my box*

P.S. No replies please telling me to g*t a l*f*!!

P.P.S shaney, the last one is for you to fill in the blanks please!

Thankyou !!

I've answered a couple for toots (hopefully correctly) and he/she has said thanks both times. So no problem. I enjoyed working on them and I got thanks for it. That's as much as you can expect on AB.

[VINNY100_2]

YO Dot..!!
yo ((((*_*))))just love these amsterdam rock cakes....!!

[AB Editor]

yup...they are back. colonisation in reverse....xx

We would not create a sub-category especially for this quiz however as we would not want to be seen as promoting cigarrettes....reality TV, now, that's OK.

i understand completely u guys being angry about this site being bombarded with marlboro questions, and any of u who do help deserve a big thank you cuz u r helping someone move a step closer to winning a million dollars.
i too am doing it , me , my husband , my best friend and her boyfriend are ateam. seeing that to do it u have to have a team of 4. we have all been working our a$@ off trying to find the answers to these clues.
i've not ask anybody to help me yet, but i would appreciate it if , for some reason i get stuck on otne , if any of u would help me out. i will be in forever debt to u.
i just signed up to this site today, i see that there has been alot of people on here asking ,and u know it seems like it takes the fun out of it if u just look to someone else for the answers before trying like he@$ to find them urself.
