[Cleoriff]

Great Game @Mi-Amigo  I did have a job holding Gizmo down to count his teeth! 😂 Joke.

[RafaC]

Misread the monopoly one, but I wouldn't have know the answer to it anyway 😅
Despite getting some bad results, I liked the questions.
Thanks @Mi-Amigo and well done everyone.

[TallTrees]

Thank you, I have had a quick look at the quiz and its some good some 🙄

will have a go.. @Mi-Amigo 

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @J9el 

Look forward to you joining in with today`s quiz.

Thank you @RafaC 

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz and well done on your stars

Thank you @Cleoriff 

I`ve now got that image in my head of you counting your cat`s teeth 😂 ... the things folks will do to find the answer to a WRQ question without googling 😂

Thank you @TallTrees 

Pleased you like the look of some of today`s WRQ questions. Good luck.

I love how your mind works pgn, I was completely lost with your bond gif but it makes sense once you explained. Well done on your silver thinker. 👏🏻

Also well done to everyone else for the very high scores this time. So many thinkers, congratulations! I got my first ever bronze thinker although I feel a little conflicted about it because I’ve been scored correctly for a potentially incorrect guess. Not that I want a lower score or anything but my guess at the Amaranth question was orange - Is that close enough to red to warrant the point or am I back to a Red Thinker? 😬

Thanks Mi-Amigo for another great WRQ, your hard work makes loads of fun for everyone so cheers for always running theses quizzes. 👍🏻 

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @Comben 

With some tough questions recently and as I was a strict with correct answers and stars, I was a generous this time and accept your answer "orange" as correct, so your award of a Bronze Thinker still stands.  

[Comben]

Yayyyyyy! 🎉 

Thanks Mi-Amigo, I’m proper happy with my first ever Bronze Thinker then. Absolutely legend, genuinely made my day! 😃 

[MI5]

Well done all and thanks @Mi-Amigo
