  • I was amazed at how many answers came in within the first 5 mins. Not making any statements yet on how many (if any) were correct. ;) You'll have to wait till the question closes tomorrow to find that out.

    As we say Monday's question is just to ease you gently into the week.

    I'll post the answer tomorrow.

    Yes It was monday the 23rd. It was also one of the quickest I've ever had someone work out the Monday Mathematics question. Well done.

    I try and clear all the winners before the end of the week. It's a manual process so it varies when people get their prizes. Everything should be completely up to date now.

    Just a reminder that the new monthly prize is starting again tomorrow Tuesday. £200 for the winner, £100 for second and £50 for third places. This in addition to all the daily and weekend prizes that are free to enter. Hope you enjoy it as there are some good questions there this month.
  • So no question today? Only just seen this so guess I'll need to wait til tomorrow?
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please
  • Wait no longer. It's open now.

    To close out June's winners:
    Thursday and the weekend question were both picture questions
    Thursdays winner of a £15 Amazon voucher was Jacqui McCarthy :T
    The weekend winner of a £20 Amazon voucher was Josie Coltman :T
    And finally (drum roll please) the winner for the month of June with a total of 15 correct answers was Jonothan Stokes.
    Jonothan wins €400 cash as our first monthly winner. :T

    July's game starts today. I'll keep you all posted as much as possible.
