PC Review Contest - April 2005 Discussion Thread

[Cache-man]

I am trying to make all of the questions as easy as possible in order to keep the quiz moving along.
Maybe the interest in a contest like this really isn't that great.
Perhaps a different form of competition is needed....I think we'd all love to see more competitions, in a variety of formats!

Cache-man,

Need not worry, we are already gearing up for more interesting contests on PC Review, one of them will be on music, probably the next one

Bex - your answer to my question i think was wrong
!!!!!!

I can think of two members, Herespax and Betty - those posts ended up being deleted though as the thread went waaaaaaaaaay off track by the end. I hope this didn't confuse this question in the quiz too much

Was it? Oh well, thought it was him/her

Does that mean my answer to Bex's question is not allowed, or do we just carry on as is?

 

[Ian]

[Ian]

Good question that one!

 

[Becky]

[Ian]

Cor!!! Well done cache man!

How'd you get that?

 

[Cache-man]

Just by looking through members list.
My plan was to search for members beginning with each of the letters in the anagram.
I didnt have to search too far as it ended up beginning with A

 

[Quadophile]

Very interesting indeed.

We are now almost there so hurry up so that the winner cabe announced, has anyone done the calculation as to who the likely winner is?

 

[Cache-man]

A little clue. I believe the thread is located in the 'Computers > Retailers' board.

 

[1nteger]

hey guys and gals - has everyone stopped or has my last question stumped people? (it's a real easy one)

 

[Alf]

Its not that easy!

 

[Becky]

I know I'm out of the comp, but I've been trying to figure out that question and I really can't!
