[guyfawkes]

Hi!
I've found this quiz extremely difficult but have (with a few guesses!) only 10 to do.
Unfortunately 105 is one of them but if you think I can help with any others, please let me know.

[smouse]

probably not done enough for me to help you then Diane dont you think

[Diane1954]

I'm sure that you would both be lots of help 'I just don't like asking when there are lots to do.I like to think the majority is my work.LOL Only ffotball on TV tonight will try and have a good go. Watch this space tomorrow. :-)

As for you Jammiedodgem well done

[Jammydodgem]

Many thanks smouse, and I'm sure there was no sarcasm at all there!

[smouse]

actually there wasnt.
I went down the path of saying some one was asking too early on this quiz when it first came out and got a load of flack which I dont want to go into and hopefully is now forgotten so I do know how you feel but I think people have had time now to really look for the answers

[boysinblue68]

smouse - as you say, people have had time to look for the answers themselves (though not many have actually done that judging by all the questions asked on AB). Why then can't they be honest with themselves and just submit the answers they have found rather than cheating by getting other people to provide the answers for them and then claiming they have found the answers (by putting their name to an answer sheet).

[keyboardix]

Tell us all then, Jammydodgem and boysinblue68, do you never consult a dictionary or a reference book, or go to a library, to assist in your quiz entries, because there is no difference in seeking friendly assistance from the Answer Bank. Are you saying that all of your answers are off the top of your head, without any research ?

[boysinblue68]

keyboardix - yes I do consult reference books, but I don't ask outright for answers on here or anywhere else (you can call it "friendly assistance" if you like) and then enter a quiz under my own name - effectively claiming that I've answered all the questions myself.

I do the research myself - it's called learning, not being given the asnwer on a plate - and if I can't find an answer under my own steam - I wouldn't dream of cheating and using someone else's answer. I think it's called ethics or integrity - if you've got a dictionary, look it up, or better still, ask someone on AB to provide the answer for you.

[smouse]

Can I just ask then why you are a user of this site

[boysinblue68]

smouse - you seem to forget, you can use this site for other things than solving quizzes! I can see many other categories on the left hand side of the screen.

And I echo Jammydodgem's sentiments, my quizzes are done without having to ask others for the answers - if I can't find an answer by myself, I'd rather leave the answer blank.
