I have not said anything in an e-mail to them, if you could advise them if they are unaware that would be fantastic.

The scores are listed on here and i can send them the e-mails i recieved to verify if it is all required, but again, time is scarce, so if this is 100% essential i will try make time.

Let me know : D

Emmie have you contacted Nekcarb or Motomoto with the details of who you would like to win? I'm sure they are aware of this thread or I could tell them (seeing as they sit 1 and 3 metres away from me respectively) but I think they are looking for something from you for the records etc etc.

Well i have to say some of you were very good at certain parts. The nintendo seemed to be hit or miss, some of you were on fire during them rounds while others struggled but showed their skill at the sony section.

Really enjoyed doing it and i hope people will happily allow me to do more, and also hope other people get invovled. As you say it is a great way to get peoepl chatting and bringing more life to the forums!

Which is something we all want.

Gratz GP, well deserved too looking at the scores. Seems me being Ninty fanboy really didn't help in this quiz!

Nice quiz though, these are always appreciated as they give me something to do for a few hours!

Congrats to GP, conmiserations Hippyman. I was happy at coming 2nd, but atleast I'm still in the first 3 :P

I wouldn't mind coming up with a quiz in similar format to this (if Emmie doesn't object) and I'd leave it up to the Freeola staffies if they'd want to reward the winner.

I've got some ideas for questions in my head anyway so let me know if you're happy for me to proceed and I'll set one up :)

(Gives Emmie chance to enter too! ^_^)
