Thank you @TheresaV . They are hard! Just glad there were a few film questions. I won't even enter in geography ones. I'm worse than a man short as we say here in Jockland lol x

Mi-Amigo · ‎24-02-2021

Thank you @TheresaV @Cairdeas @pgn @MI5 @Cleoriff for your comments.

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz and special mention must be made to @Cairdeas who, on her first attempt at the White Room Quiz, got a Bronze Thinker.

As most of the regulars will say, some of the questions are not easy and sometimes questions are rated by quiz books as difficult or I come up with a couple which most think are tricky or head-scratchers; and, as to not liking Geography questions you can always make a guess, which might be right.

I`m sure that @TheresaV will no doubt be looking to regain victory as "top admin"

I hope everyone likes some, if not all, of the questions in today`s WRQ which is now up on a separate thread.

It`s becoming quite competitve between the admin - with "Will @LukasB get a Red Thinker?" "Will @TheresaV regain the admin crown?" "Will @Martin-O2 surpass both of them?"... which is attracting a lot of views. All will be revealed on Friday morning....
