Correct ones there Winkle are:
3: 1pt scored (the most anyone got was 2pts, 10 possible) 5= correct 7= japanese alphabets - this was a skinner you'd've got some points for this So not massively successful I'm afraid. Sounds good GT |

By:
The only one you got right was 13 I'm afraid slarty (excluding the top 10 one).
For that you had to get as close to 10th on the list as possible. Top score was 2. |

By:
Tober, your amended answer was the correct one.
|
|
By:
I wish I'd been here at 19:54:59 to tell Tober he was wrong. As it happens I was qm and thought it was George IV, was sure it was George IV in fact, which is why I didn't check it. Had to wiki to confirm.
