That makes things easier. :slightly_smiling_face:

For Blue 2 I think I’ll give 1 point for Australia, and a ½ for Antarctica. :+1: (and a ½ of you chanced it and put two answers in :slightly_smiling_face:)

I have adjusted the marks, but it made no difference to the scoreboard over all. :slightly_smiling_face:

Sadly quizmasters don’t get to win. :slightly_smiling_face: I just put my answers in to seed the board a bit, and give something for people to try and beat.

I nearly swopped out this quiz as I thought it was too easy. :slightly_smiling_face: Just goes to show that everyone knows different stuff.

You can have this special orange cheese for Exceptional Additional Detail. :slightly_smiling_face:

That’s part of what is confusing. Under modern continent divisions there’s technically no right answer, Australia isn’t a continent on it’s own anymore by virtually all definitions and like you said Antarctica isn’t technically a country

I’m going to be honest @WillC and read this before seeing the answers… I assumed Roy of the Rovers was the comic character with the cow pie only diet! :rofl::see_no_evil:

Nooo! Even though i’m not into sport, i did enjoy reading Roy of the Rovers, that’s how i knew his actual name. Before he had his own comic he was in a boys anthology comic, Tiger if memory serves!

Also, we had a local pub/restaurant called Mad O’Rourkes that had Cow Pie on the menu, complete with horns sticking out of the top! (Made of pastry!)

I dispute 3 and 4 in Science and Nature having anything to do with Science and Nature but I am impressed you knew the condom fact about the 2000 Olympics @Ian_Chimp - I tried to think of things but never would have got to that.

Was it Australia’s way of trying to avoid lots of super babies being born in foreign countries 9 months later? :joy:

Edited to change country when realised I got my years wrong :woman_facepalming:t2: Same query though.
