Posted August 29, 2010 69. I found this out by pure fluke: Phil/Philip = Happenstance's name Not sure if he's classed as a mod but I'll go with Dan Dare (Dan T Phillips). If there is someone else official with the surname Philip/Philips then I'm just really unlucky. :p Ton Phillips, the recently departed head honcho, surely?

Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Nah the Dan Dare one's right, although it was a bit of a stretch They both have the same surname, but Tphi was an admin never a mod. It's not a Cox though! Edited August 29, 2010 by Shorty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Ton Phillips, the recently departed head honcho, surely? I typed that initally, then realised he wasn't a moderator and that I could have sworn I had Dan T Philips on MSN once. 84. Braeburn. And for a treat here's the exact image!

Posted August 29, 2010 Ah. Sincere apologies. It is meant to be squared. Originally I had it in superscript but that was seemingly lost during various acts of copy+paste from here to my notes and back again. You can both have two points because, in a sense, you both solved separate questions fully. That's very generous. Thanks. Do the N-E boards even support superscript, though? The fish: Technically, I still answered in the wanted format. Many of these questions have trick answers. But I see your point. It's up to Shorty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 29, 2010 No they don't - there's a character for it though, which I will use in the future: ² Sheikah and Fish, correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 23, 2010 still annoys me that this was locked 30 mins before I signed in for that day -- I knew the anagram one (3 pts!!1!) and the gamerscore. BUT! The effort you went through to do the quiz and mark 'em was no small feat. Was great fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
