Robert Shaw

Bollocks. Bollocks. Bollocks.

I bloody knew it. Stupid Lee Van Cleefe. He tricked me!

And I can't believe I lost again! The only thing that makes it bearable is knowing that the win is going to another Liverpool fan.

Ah, so that's why you put the wrong answer in, then?

*nods*

Makes perfect sense...

:-P

Your chance for revenge is up, in the form of Round III.

Because Lee Van Cleefe tricked me! He was like the Sicilian in the Princess Bride - he dazzled me with his cunning and made me put his name down. He said he'd do bad things to me if I didn't. He'd hurt me and my family. Then he'd come after my friends.

Ahem.

I don't know if I'll take part in Round 3. I keep getting beaten at the last minute and it's a bit soul-destroying to be in the lead for so long, only to see it wrested from me by tricky people with their superior facial recognition skillz.

Incidentally - I was shocked that No. 1 was Michael J. Fox. That poor bloke looks like he's aged 20 years.

It's not the winning or the losing, it's the taking part!

But, having said that, you've beaten uninvitedcat both times, now, and that's got to be worth something, right?

I'm enjoying watching the quizzes - can't eer take them because they're impossible to do on my handheld - but I have a favour. Would you be willing to do a faces one with people from the HP films, in our out of character, for us to host on FA? And a music one, too, with the soundtrack songs?

I can do a HP faces one, probably, yes: what are you going for, actors or characters as the answers?

As far as the soundtracks go, I *did* think of doing a soundtrack music quiz, but using multiple films. Teasing individual themes from the soundtracks might be a little too much for any but the most obsessive discerning fans!

It also occured to me that I could take snippets from Stephen Fry's readings of the books (I have all 6), and get people to name the book and chapter :-)

15: Miranda Otto

GAH! I knew I knew her from somewhere, but she looked different enough that my brain couldn't make the connection.

I'm gratified to see, though, that I only COULD have added her and Flo-Jo. Never heard of any of the others (well, okay, I've heard of Tracy Chapman, but don't know what she looks like), so I don't have to feel bad at not recognizing them.

I think my Britishness works against you here, I'm afraid. I'm sure I'd be hopeless at this game as set by an American.

I agree, unless my spelling improves I'm never going to get anywhere and in spite of that I feel cheated once again. I'm sure I didn't spell that many wrong or is it just that you don't approve of the moralistic tone I attributed to the Ms Jolie!

Then I don't understand how I only got 50% Is it not 4% per answer? (Isn't being as whiney as this post may sound)

Eeeep!!!!

A thousand apologies - you got 17½ points in Round 2, which equates to 70%, not 50%. I honestly have no idea how I mixed that up!

Sorry!!!!!! *runs off to edit round 2's scores*
