Lag
What you say comes up on your screen immediately, however there is a short delay before everyone else receives your message, this is called lag. *Everyone* experiences this, your answer maybe out of kilter compared with everyone elses, but the right order will appear in front of the QMaster/Scorer.
Good, I'll be preparing later on.... From the really good quiz book I've got (has always provided a good quiz). 40 or maybe 50 questions, 8pm tomorrow.
Will be nice to see you all again.

Keep having problems with Word.... Everything is frozen - as it did this morning!
If I close the window, I'll lose everything I've typed - virtually the whole quiz.
Don't know what to do - "Microsoft word is not responding", I could end process, but I didn't save it.

Only for people with BT sport, 6. I'm not sure it's the only reason for less runners. Sunday will interrupt the Spanish footy. I usually watch that, see how much I sacrifice for your entertainment?

Evening SF!!! How are you? It's quieter on here than I remember, must be six years or more! I had a heart attack and moved to Fuerteventura for the sun. We've just come back, what with Brexi imminent we were worried about healthcare etc.

They're not going strong any more mate. The only regular one is one I do on Xmas Day each year. Then occasional others, from time to time you do get to see the same old names though. Sorry about your medical issue - I guess we're all getting older - What you haven't been missing however, is a much more politically driven forum than it was 6 years ago. As you say, the traffic is much lighter than it was too.

A sad example of what this forum has become, is the dropping down of this thread.
Anyway - For the 7th year running, I will be doing a Christmas day quiz (9pm Xmas day) if anyone want's it. It's been a while, but it would be nice to have another get-together.
Let me know, if you're keen.

Sorry I missed the quiz - but not sorry at all that I missed a troll. I only have one eyeball left to pop.
What a shame that this type of vermin are so mindless, clueless and useless they have to interrupt old friends trying to have a bit of intelligent fun.
They really must be sick in the head.

Course not pumphol, he's a banned loser. and has the temerity to call people (more than the 1 person he is used to) trying to have a quiz, losers.
I have a fair idea who it is - but there's not a snowball's chance in hell of him ever coming out from behind his computer's anonymity, and it isn't a name that's been suggested by anyone else. He used to post an insulting/grovelling set of ridiculous posts on a hijacked youtube video, which he posted under the name of brian cox, until his user profile and posts were all deleted.
Then because he can still see this thread is having a little hand shandy at the thought of ruining the quiz.
There were loads of claims, when he was allowed on youtube, that he'd infiltrated the forum's coding (probably untrue), that he's had loads of posts and threads removed (possibly true), lots of grovelling to someone called ron (who immediately deleted his own posts), lots of grovelling to and blowing smoke up the ars of Crippen. And that he removed all his own posts from youtube (definitely untrue).
There were originally some right-wing video/radio links and loads and loads of insults and childish rants at various posters from this forum, which he claims to be "trying to destroy".
This post and the spoiling of a potential quiz will the only Xmas present he's received. There's little doubt he'll do the same again. It does seem a waste of some ability to use computers that this is what he chooses to do, but how do we deal with trolls?

Tired of Brexit bull? Fed up with Betfair Customers Services?
The antidote is a gentle quiz, with a nice cup of tea, accompanied by Mr Winkle's anecdotes of London life.

I've sorted out one with some more rounds of questions which I initially made for live events and which went down well. Once again, a bit of thinking and some concentration needed.
I thought Sunday at 8 might be good, if it suits players. Please let me know if it's OK with you. Nice to see some of you again after a while, btw.
