Who Wants To Be A FoG Millionaire?

[Declan A Walsh]

The one day I just didnt really have time to log in much. I usually pop in at least a few times a day to see whats going on. Good luck everyone.  Consider me the head cheerleader!

It's a pity that I did not miss it! 

[Kol]

If no one has any objections, I will let @Wichita Lineman play and reinstate @Declan A Walsh though I must be strict from here on out.

I dont think anyone would have geuinely not got those first 3.

[Trigger]

No issues whatsoever with that..

Fire away..

I object retroactively if they end up beating me, but for now I'm happy for them to play

[Wichita Lineman]

That would be very generous and I'll definitely play today if allowed.

[Kol]

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

Don't know whats on the curriculum these days, but that and quite a bit of British history would have been covered when I was at school durring the 90s

[Leg End Reject]

That's a common question on British quiz shows, so I'm not surprised a lot of people knew it.

[Declan A Walsh]

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

[quickbeam]

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

[quickbeam]

Yep. Though I liked it before it was cool

[Leg End Reject]

I finished reading the GoT WW today, how's that for timing?

[quickbeam]

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.

You were Stannis in this one, and The Valeyard's partner had a baby during it. You had mentioned that'd happened!

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.

[quickbeam]

I'm a Leeds fan

I'm sorry for your troubles.

[aaronjennings]

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

[Zaph]

I appreciate it, it's not an easy life being a Leeds fan...

i was dodgey on the war question and had to use a 50/50 on it, but i was almost sure of the exact date marty traveled back to, my guess would be september 3rd 1955.. wonder how far i am out.....

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

[jp liz v1]

I'll watch as I'm late, good luck y'all

[quickbeam]

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

Welcome back

I feel like this is payback
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...

now that you say it, yep.. glad that wasn't asked so.....

The wheels are starting to come now, do I guess or use a lifeline ...

[Zaph]

The wheels are starting to come now, do I guess or use a lifeline ... 

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.
