Hi Daniel,
I logged in earlier and put yesterdays answer as I wasn’t sure if I would remember to check back later for an updated question based on others queries below….
My question is now I have answered todays updated question does the system take my earlier answer or will the updated question and answer override the previous answer? 😁
Hope this is the last of the gremlins for a while!
“on days when there is an issue such as this as long as an answer is submitted you will receive full entries for your answer.” 👍
I just put in yesterday’s answer again and will check back later, it’s the bank holiday weekend imps playing again.
Hi when is the 30th of May question coming up today from Katie Pollock
There was a slight delay but the new anagram was posted not too long ago now. Apologies for the inconvenience. Good luck. Daniel
Thank you, Daniel. I have now answered today’s question.
Is it going to be Anagrams in June, perchance?
The gremlins are playing with the system again, so submitted yesterdays answer
Heather, they had too much to drink whilst on the beach. Now nursing hangovers and sunstroke 🤣🤣
I actually googled it to double check for pizza and pasta country, because… you never know with trick questions. If the question had been for Chicken Tikka Masala you’d be surprised to know that it wasn’t India but actually Scotland.
I misread the question. I wrote the name of the play rather than the writer. Too much on my mind. Still got 1 chance though 🙂
Holder, the majority of us will have done the same or similar thing at some point. To err is human (Alexander Pope), quote ends with ‘but to forgive is divine’.
I have heard a revised ending:- ‘but to really foul things up, you need a computer’!
Apologies for the issue. This was resolved early this afternoon (Shortly after 2pm). As with previous issues, on days when there is an issue such as this as long as an answer is submitted you will receive full entries for your answer. All the best, Daniel.
Will the 30th of May Question be up today yes or no?
2 options: put yesterdays answer in again or wait until later when it should be updated. It’s happened before and no doubt it will happen again. Damned Gremlins are never satisfied even if they are being a pain in the butt 🤣🤣
Ok sorry i wil wait for the new question to come up today
Hi Daniel
Will there be a new question today for the 26th of May 2023 yes or no
Here she goes again 🙄, does not read comments and has to keep repeating 🤪
I’m putting the same answer as yesterday which will normally be honoured if there are gremlins in the system
When will the competition come up today
Hi Daniel Yesterday question is still up where is today’s question from Katie Pollock
