Doesn't have to be a correct answer for Top Answers Jake, only for Pointless :hee:

The Celebrities round is so UK centric :(

Ammi 25-08-2020 10:55 AM

...okay, I’ve just read the OP through and I’m armed and dangerous...

Shaun 25-08-2020 10:56 AM

Okay, edited in Lucas' scores (5 for Pointless :clap1: we won't mention the other one) and added a couple of points to those who shared answers with him.

don't let that worry you, TiBB will go for the USA

Ammi 25-08-2020 10:58 AM

...well done Lucas...:love:...

Niamh. 25-08-2020 10:58 AM

Ah ****s sake you gave me a point in Pointless Lucas :oh:

AnnieK 25-08-2020 10:59 AM

Oh, I forgot just how many celebs died in 2016 :sad:

Ammi 25-08-2020 10:59 AM

...shame on you, Lucas...:laugh:..

Shaun 25-08-2020 11:00 AM

Hmm... what do we think? Do TiBB want blood? Jake and Calderyon both scored a point for Fawkes (the only shared answer), so... do they have another 21 points added to their scores? :think:

Quote:

Fawkes was the last to stand on the scaffold. He asked for forgiveness of the King and state, while keeping up his "crosses and idle ceremonies" (Catholic practices). Weakened by torture and aided by the hangman, Fawkes began to climb the ladder to the noose, but either through jumping to his death or climbing too high so the rope was incorrectly set, he managed to avoid the agony of the latter part of his execution by breaking his neck.
It's a tricky grey area... not known if he actually intended to commit suicide or it was an accident caused through the execution process. I'm on the fence on this.

Niamh. 25-08-2020 11:01 AM

I think leave them off, he was on his way to the execution so it caused it indirectly anyway

Denver 25-08-2020 11:01 AM

So I flopped

Ammi 25-08-2020 11:02 AM

...I don’t understand why they would have 21 points added...?...is the TA or Pointless..

Shaun 25-08-2020 11:03 AM

Pointless, Ammi, it doesn't matter if he was executed or not for Top Answers :tongue: it's just a question - with Pointless - of if it's a correct answer or not. I think since he died whilst being prepared for execution (literally in the seconds building up to it), it's a fair answer, but I can see why some would argue it isn't.

For Pointless, it has to be correct so you'd get the maximum score for a wrong answer

Ammi 25-08-2020 11:05 AM

...let the answer go I think...but would they not just have had 2 points added..?...I don’t get the 21 point bit when they were the only two who said him...

Shaun 25-08-2020 11:06 AM

Just to clear things up Ammi, if, for example, I posed a question:

Name a colour

and, in Top Answers, 20 members huffed something questionable and all gave the answer "Mutya Buena", they would still all score 20 points for Top Answers in that question. If they did the same in Pointless, it would be incorrect and they'd score the number of points per participants in that round.

Ammi 25-08-2020 11:07 AM

...but anyways...no, no arguments I don’t think...it was a really fair answer...either way, it wasn’t Mr Fawkes day that day, it was the death of him...

There were 21 players in the last round, so if anyone got a wrong answer they get 21pts.

Like with the TV show, Pointless, the "wrong" score is 100 because they ask 100 people their questions.

...oh so it’s not how many people have that specific answer...as in 2 points for that answer because bot Jake and Cald gave it..?...
