Does nobody see that this person is having a laugh at the expense of others?

[halcyon days]

Well it would be justice if someone on answerbank went and downloaded this quiz did it and won the big money. Maybe a lot of us did not know it existed so maybe he/she has done us a favour.
The laugh would be on them then
Onwards and upwards.

Dear halcyon days, damn you�ve seen the weakness in my plot, I should never have posted the link, now everyone will be entering the quiz, my plot for world domination is crumbling around my feet

At least Catron almost got the point, it really wasn�t my intention to laugh at others, my intention was to let everyone know that its pointless entering quizzes such as this because the greedy and the lazy just ask use sites such as this.

What�s the point in spending time looking for answers when you can just put the questions on here and let others do it.

I don�t know why the Northern Echo don�t just have an end of year lottery in place of this quiz

[Catron]

I wonder if you realise what a fool you have made yourself look - you could have made your point with ONE post, yet you carried on and on for no reason whatsoever. And the most stupid things of all is that you have made no difference whatsoever - questions and answers to quizzes will still appear on this site and there will be no less of them for all your silly games. I would say ' grow up', except that I think you have proved that is well and truly beyond you.

[JoeHotpot]

This is a great site, a bit like Google but with feedback!

RAGGY ROMAN & Catron, I love you both dearly xx

Do you think there's any point in me posting the answers on here?
