Milhouse has four correct answers, and well spotted that Nobby has "dual nationality" - a bonus 0.5 for that.
Hammy has three correct (sorry number 2 is wrong, it's a four legged creature other than a hamster, as H/V/P will be quick to point out).
Milhouse gets a 2.5 speed bonus for getting his answers in within the half-hour, and Jase gets a 2pt bonus for answering within the hour. Future responses will be scaled accordingly.
Leaderboard:
1. Milhouse 7pts
2. Massive2 aka 'Hammy' 5pts

Not a bad effort, Josie.
3) and 5) are correct, but 12) is not.
for 18) yes indeed margo and tommo have both spilt their ale in the excitement of the moment so a point for each.
One "speed point" bonus. I make that 5 in all, level with Hammy.

:D At at last a quiz where I know all the answers 8-) HVP 20pts ;D :P You may well have awarded yourself 20 Kipling Points, H/V/P, but surely you know how a quiz works ? You have to give the answers to win. Obviously not paying enough attention to the thing you started ! Anyway Jase has 3 additional points for correct answers to 9,11 and 14, and the BB Reaper is awarded 2pts for naming some more 'beer jugglers'. And there's plenty more of those ! We have a new leader !  Leaderboard: 1. Massive2 aka 'Hammy' 8pts 2. Milhouse 7pts 3. Josie 5pts 4. BB Reaper 2pts 5. Herr van Puebik 0pts 2,4,6,8,12,16,18 & 20 left to get.... |

One point for milko there;
Milhouse: you can't have milko twice, and he says it's not so anyway - so will have to take one off. But you get the point back for exposing yourself as a beer juggler. ;D

Hmmmph............alright No 2 Spot from Puebik :D 4 Jel 12 Sav 16 Roo Hmmm I might have to Google the rest :-/ didn't know as much as I thought ::) At last, a proper entry from the Master ! Can give you three points for Jel, Sav and Roo, plus 1.5 bonus points as they all are three-lettered names (I make the rules !)Your answer to number 2 - though correct - has a slight inaccuracy, as you can see here : I haven't seen a cat on here for ages.  Theres a reason for that  He's called Spot von Puebik :P So marking you down half-a-point on that. 5 points in total. Leaderboard: 1. Massive2 aka 'Hammy' 8pts 2.

That's a bit mean........docking me points for using English :-/ Ich glaube die antwort fuer Nummer zwanzig ist Q :P Appeal successfully upheld, 0.5 added back on. And 20 is correct for Bernie, as you have so eloquently put it. We're multi-lingual on this forum ! Would have given the Colemanator the point for 20 in English had it been correct, but it wasn't, and as H/V/P has also pointed out, 19 has already gone. I think in the circumstances Mick ought to accrue some proper KP's for snitching, what do you say, Ian ? ;D Leaderboard: 1. Massive2 aka 'Hammy' 8pts 2. Milhouse 7pts 3. Herr van Puebik 6.5pts 4. Josie 5pts 5. BB Reaper 2pts 6. Milko 1pt 7. Colemanator 0pts 6,8 and some more 18's to get. |

6) KT is correct, well done margo for 1pt. I will give the remaining answers now on this quiz now, so save y'all the bother of trawling back through page after page of Kipling Threads (which I've just had to do myself to find them !) 8) Sparky became 'pretty boy' for a brief moment in history due to a news item about an African Grey parrot who was so foul-mouthed (screeching out " show us your knickers" etc) that it caused its council house owner to be evicted: the parrot's name was Sparky. 18) Beer jugglers: points have been given out for Father Hall, Sparky, Milko, Milhouse and the Colemanator. And for : 12. Margo 18. Tommo Tommo Tommo Tommo Tommo Tommo and Margo (Margo's should earn extra points because it was at the infamous 666 moment!!!!! :o) Cheers, Josie, I think a million KPs should be awarded for the tennis ball incident. ;) The other famous jugglers you could have had were : Gary 'blowhole' Powell; Lolly; Veronica (during her dance routine); and the specialised 'cider juggler' Triplex. Quiz ended: 1. Massive2 aka 'Hammy' 8pts 2. Milhouse 7pts 3. Herr van Puebik 6.5pts 4. Josie 5pts 5. BB Reaper 2pts 6= Milko 1pt 6= margo 1pt 8. Colemanator 0pts |
