    Just to update, I been distracted in RL halfway through doing the tabulations for all this.

    Regretfully that means I won't be able to do the reveal tonight, unless it's gonna be late, late. Besides, I've also recieved a couple of late entries from @packybhoy, @RabS & @Twisty so am having to recalculate all the progressive scores I'd worked out etc and starting over on those, as I'm doing this all manually, sorry. Am sure there is a much faster way with a spreadsheet or some such that I don't have access to on this device, so yeah, I'm slow. Deal with it, lol.

    Anyhow, tune in tomorrow, around 8.30-9pm (depending on when I get home) and will be doing the reveal then.

    OK, So here is the situation.. I just got home, and have a few extra people send me answers as well.

    So welcome @borobob @cidermaster @Callum McGregor :)

    I have added these in and retabulated everyone's overall scores accordingly.

    Unfortunately it has impacted how I was going to do a gradual reveal/progressive score reveal as we went, but will work on that for next time. as I've been out all day so not been able to process any of this unttil tonight.

    So, will reveal each individual answer... you can track your own scores, but I will be doing a reveal of everyone's scores at the end and work my way up the list according to placements. Hope all this makes sense :)

    Anyhow, here we go!


    So tagging everyone...

    @Double Dutch @JC Anton @Qué sera sera @packybhoy @Twisty @Scotia @Slaw
    @MickeyyMack @wee green dug @Mr. Slippyfist @Dazza @Buster @Tim-Time 1888
    @Hope N Ur Heart @Cena @BigWilly @paulie walnuts @KG-Henrik @Jeannie960
    @Mystic Penguin @RabS @Random Review @borobob @Callum McGregor @cidermaster

    And a big thank you to you all!!!
