I object retroactively if they end up beating me, but for now I'm happy for them to play
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Wichita Lineman - 19-10-2021
That would be very generous and I'll definitely play today if allowed.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Kol - 19-10-2021
Welcome back, remember folks, there are no trick questions here, maybe some misspellings though.
Let's play, Who wants to be a FoG millionaire?

Fair play, I thought an English history question might trip some people up, but obviously not

RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Leg End Reject - 19-10-2021
That's a common question on British quiz shows, so I'm not surprised a lot of people knew it.
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - Declan A Walsh - 19-10-2021
So, I take it that there are two milestones - 1,000 and 32,000, as per the original version of the game. I assume that you are not doing the safety net (moveable milestone) feature of the Jeremy Clarkson era.

Lucky for me it was C because I've no idea what the other three wars are
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 19-10-2021
I don't remember learning about Wars of the Roses in school. Or indeed, any of the wars listed. However, I am a medieval nut so have done loads of reading on the subject in my own time. The Roses were an especially interesting time. Kinda like Game of the Thrones without the Walkers or Dragons.

It's what GoT is based on

Yep. Though I liked it before it was cool

I finished reading the GoT WW today, how's that for timing?
RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 19-10-2021
I think there were two. The first GoT I was Stannis, if I remember correctly, and was my first time as a wolf.
Second time I was Brianne and I did something heroic to save the Stark girls, that I never really quite understood.
Both good games.

I'm a Leeds fan, the White Rose of Yorkshire features prominently on the club crest. There'd be no excuse for me getting that one wrong.

I was sure about the War of the Roses, don't know why, just one of those things you pick up. The Back To The Future question, however, I wasn't 100%, was torn between 50s and 60s

November 5th, 1955, according to Wikipedia. Right year at least.

RE: Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire? - quickbeam - 20-10-2021
I'd have sworn it was October 1955, but I see now from Wikipedia that it was October that they jumped forward to in BTTFII. Didn't we all celebrate Back to the Future day in 2015 when the date came around? Just me?

Don't recall celebrating it but I do remember it in the news. BTTF is me favourite movie trilogy and part 2 just might be my favourite of the 3.
Might give them a spin next month, been a while since I watched them. October is horror month for me

I did not learn Irish geography at school. I'm a bit obsessed with maps and the counties though, but still not sure about this one. Answer submitted though...

Yeah, that's a tricky enough question for this early in the game. I took a semi-educated guess because I wanted to hold on to my lifelines, so it's all or bust for me now.
