FOGebrity Mastermind - The Reveal

[Wichita Lineman]

Halfway leaderboard - 

[Cdeb]

Have to say the number of 8s in that reflects very well on the question setter.

General knowledge will decide, as it should

[nothing]

Well done Liz, some tough ones there

[Declan A Walsh]

There's, eh, Nothing in it! 

[nothing]

There's, eh, Nothing in it! 

[Trigger]

And I figured number 5 was either Glen Crowe or Jason Byrne - 50/50 shot that fell the wrong way...

Bohs had 8 different goalscorers over the 2 legs..

[aaronjennings]

General Knowledge is where it all goes wrong, I expect

[Wichita Lineman]

and Liz is back with her General knowledge round adding 6 to her score. 

[Wichita Lineman]

and Zaph gets 7

[Wichita Lineman]

E.N. on the rebound has a 6 pointer

[Cdeb]

Wait wait wait -

Mickeys per second?!

Also - Zaph gets the Hitchhiker's Guide question of course

[Wichita Lineman]

CDEB is here again. Is 6 the new 8? 

[aaronjennings]

Wait wait wait -

Mickeys per second?!

And don't get me started on "How many inches in a hand?"

[Wichita Lineman]

Provisional leaderboard - does not take tiebreakers into account yet

[Wichita Lineman]

Duffman13 gets a very respectable 7

[Cdeb]

Wait wait wait -

Mickeys per second?!

And don't get me started on "How many inches in a hand?"

Wikipedia tells me there's mickey sensitivity as well. At which point I had to stop reading or risk actually exploding with laughter

[Wichita Lineman]

Kol slides down the table with 4 in round 2. 

[Wichita Lineman]

Nothing couldnt repeat the perfect 10 but will 7 be enough to take the trophy? 

[Leg End Reject]

And don't get me started on "How many inches in a hand?"

Wikipedia tells me there's mickey sensitivity as well. At which point I had to stop reading or risk actually exploding with laughter

I believe mickey sensitivity can increase the number of inches in a hand.

[Wichita Lineman]

Edser strikes back with 6 in the GK round. He might still get the spoon though. 

[nothing]

Oh god, the nerves!

[Wichita Lineman]

Irish Aris is here aris and also claims 6pts. 

[Wichita Lineman]

another 6, this time for Leg End Reject


I'm really glad it was his tongue he had to insure not his ahem mickeys per second....

[Wichita Lineman]

Leaderboard (provisional) with 7 left

[nothing]

[Leg End Reject]

I got really lucky with my general knowledge questions, I would have been lost with some of the others!

[Wichita Lineman]

7th last to go - GreenandRed bumps their score up by 8

[Wichita Lineman]

Welcome back Deja Boo. Didnt you have 8 before? 

[aaronjennings]

[Wichita Lineman]

and then there were 5 - Declan pops back and gets 5. As Larry Gogan would have said they just didnt suit ya Declan. 

[Wichita Lineman]

Into the final 4 so I'll leave the leaderboard until the end. 

Next up - Neowise who improved on his first round score as well with 5

[aaronjennings]

If only Declan's last question had been asked after the TV Sheep, not before

[Wichita Lineman]

With only 2 more after them we say hi again to Aaron jennings who continues the recent run of 5's

[Wichita Lineman]

Nearly there. The penultimate chair sitter is ShaneU and he gets 2. 

[Wichita Lineman]

and last but not least we have the return of Quickbeam who scores another 5

[nothing]

[Wichita Lineman]

The final table including the tiebreaker - where needed - will follow but I just wanted to give you the tiebreaker stats first. 

How many films did Elvis Presley appear in?
The answer is  - 33
King Creole  - Duffman13 was only 5 away.
Heartbreak Hotel  – Declan A. Walsh undershot by 29.


How many times does the word ‘blood’ appear in Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’?
The answer – 42
As you like it – Neowise was 12 off.
Much ado about nothing – Declan A. Walsh over estimated by a whopping 358


On the original Band Aid single "Do They Know It's Christmas" how many people were in the artiste line up?
Correct answer –  44
Feeding the world – GreenandRed & Aaron Jennings both missed out by 4.
Aid required – Leg End reject was 29 off target.

According to the Beaufort scale how many miles per hour must wind reach to be classified as a Hurricane?
The answer we were looking for was  - 74mph
Hurricane chasers – Deja Boo, Duffman13, E.N. & GreenandRed were the closest to a correct tiebreak answer yet. All just 1 astray.
Blown away – ShaneU is a windswept 176 off course.

How many minutes long is the total running time of the 1972 film ’The Godfather’?
Correct running time – 178 minutes
Al Pacino style – Nothing, Zaph & Kol were the straightest shooters being 3 out.
Al Bundy style – CDEB must have fast forwarded a lot as he was 68 minutes short.

Taking all 5 tiebreak questions into account
Flying home  – Deja Boo & E.N. on 60
Not even  at the races – Declan A. Walsh who was 501 adrift.

[Wichita Lineman]

Congratulations @nothing our FOGebrity champion!

I was 68 minutes short btw - I've no interest in films in general but I do know it was longer than -509 minutes!
