In the semi-private battle for 13th place, grabbing 3 points on @BrumJim seems like a significant victory

You're 22 ahead of Spartak before this round (after his late entry counted)!

Apparently I have to start again according to Classic, unless I'm getting duped 🤷‍♂️

As I understand it, the scores are being kept yearly - which I fully support as a noob to the forum this year.
There could, of course, be two scores kept - all time overall and this year overall, bu as I'm not keeping them that's not for me to say.

 

[steverob]

Ouch. Six.

Had about five 50/50 guesses where I'd ruled out two of the options and still managed to get them all wrong.

And yes, a yearly score reset is the way to go, otherwise it would be really pointless for new people to join the quiz as they'd never get enough points to challenge the leaders who have been doing this for ages.

Seemingly I finished 2023 in 6th place with 189 points. I was up to 3rd at one point, but I didn't play it every week and I got lazy.

I am not sure if I scored anything during 2024, but I was not on the forum for all, if not most, of that year anyway.

So 35 70 weeks worth of questions to catch up on.

What's this 22?
I haven't got round to check if I played in 2024 yet, but if I did, then it'll be bugger all!

Or did I log on already this year and then forget?
