How come I scored way higher than Zesty on today's trivia, but he got equal points? I realise that he took less time, but he SCORED LESS and I'm sure that's an important factor.

I think the final points aren't allocated until they know exactly how many people took part. The adjustment doesn't take place until the days' competition is closed.

I see that, looking at the scores as they stand presently, but it's the principle! I mean, it's dog eat dog out there in this mean world and you can't go giving free points to your competitors.

Congratulations Jack - January 2009 Beau Peep Trivia Challenge Winner!
Sorry this is late - it was a fine month with so many so close to winning - and with the top player changing so many times - most exiting month ever. Well done Jack

Thankyou Diane.

A note about today's quiz...

those questions with "all of these" as the answer are annoying enough already, but when the question is "Which one of these...?" then it's even more stupid.

Once again, the leader scored TWO POINTS higher than the second placed player yet both received the same score.

Same rules for all, Malc - we all have suffered, but they are consistent. You have to look at it like the equivalent of bad refereeing decisions evening themselves out over a season (yeah, I know that's b*ll*x too).

I had seven lucky guesses today.  :D
I apologise, in advance.

That's what I mean, I never get those refereeing decisions. Not that I care.
