Sorry to have missed this one Mi-Amigo, had a busy weekend which spilled over to Monday and by the time I remembered yesterday it was 2am. ☹️ If I'm completely honest I only got 3 in this WRQ so wouldn't have done great but I will be involved in the Wednesday edition so hoping to get back to at least a Red Thinker.

In contrast to how I feel when I get a Thinker award, this is how I feel when I forget to do a WRQ...

Also is there any possibility that the WRQ can be extended til 3-4am instead of the midnight cut off Mi-Amigo? That said it probably won't help me much and will mean it's hard for you to score so not to worry. ✍️

Really well done everyone! I was so excited to see the question about the soup dragon. No one knew what I was talking about when I was a kid!

Thank you @Comben and @Breanna 

Sorry you missed out on the quiz @Comben. As to extending the deadline, this might be possible as I have found pms on the morning when I give results, which had been sent after I have gone to bed but before the deadline. If/when the deadline is extended, I`ll post this in advance and in the intro to WRQ.

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz @Breanna and well done on your award with @RafaC

Thanks for being so accommodating Mi-Amigo, I'm a nightmare I know but it's because I'm a night owl so I'm usually up at that time and those extra few hours could really help me. 🦉

 

Cheers for being able and willing to do that, I hope I don't often go past the midnight cut off but it's nice to have the buffer just in case. ✌️
