Some monster individual scores out there tonight. I admire the resilience of the folks that were able to slog their way through some of the books referenced in the game. Or maybe I just admire their ability to blindly stab with such unerring accuracy...  Out of curiosity, did anyone catch the glaring errors in two of tonight's questions? Well... maybe "glaring" isn't the exact word for it...

I told GAVV that they were mistakenly going to list "Bride of Frankenstein." Of course, they did. She was the bride of the monster, not Dr. Frankenstein. The bride of Frankenstein was played by Valerie Hobson. A classic trick question. They also asked about a 1973 film wherein a scientist changes humans into snakes. I told GAVV before the answers came up that the answer was "Sssssss", but it had to have seven esses or else it doesn't count. BT had the answer as Ssssssss with eight esses. How on earth are people supposed to pick out the correct answer in this scenario...? I thought about mentioning it in the "incorrect questions" thread just for giggles. Pedantism, thy name is Spotes. |
