Underway in an hour or so -- GG staff are already calling it 'The Widowmaker'
The Quizmaster has made a Game that's daunting The kind to make faint-hearted Players flee QM will post a Contest that is haunting But -- with a little bit of luck Participants who show pluck Just might make it to the D-D-C

Today's contest will start earlier today --

exactly 2 hours 45 minutes, Bat -- pretty impressive for 50 answers and 07 BRs
but just beaten out by the famous and still-discussed 'Three Stooges' contest on 10/08/18 at 2 hrs 39 min (and that one had 100 answers & 22 BR responses!)
and by the way -- where were YOU while this was going on?

Impressive (and a little scary) that you have that information so readily at your finger tips
Off line thingies won the race to the top of the to do list today ! It happens on occasion.

fwiw, IF I had been fast enough to get there first, I could have gotten 10,16,36 and 40 without book-larnin' involved but that would probably have been it even with lookin'up ! Pretty close scores today ! Impressive !
Congrats OldAussie and

It was over even before I entered today. THAT'S what was missing from the contest -- no Tele. No wonder it wasn't any fun for the QM.
