Picture Quiz Number Two.

Great news. There may well be a first 'competition' being played tonight. If you are playing for 'real' then remember to PM me the answers. If at least six people play,then I'll publish the results.

If you are playing for fun,you could compare your scores, once the table is published.

Quick rules

The closing time will be exactly 8.25pm UK time,(by my watch anyway),so you have 25 minutes to complete it.
Send answers via a Facebook PM to either JustQuiz or Paul Philpot (make sure it's the right one).
If you don't know an answer,could you write 'pass' next to the answer number.
It's not a spelling contest,so don't worry too much about getting words exactly right

Answers and tables will be published as soon as possible after the answer messages have been received.

There will be two final tables.One based on most correct answers and one based on incorrect answers by fellow competitors.

So, if 3 people get question one wrong you will score 3 points. If 6 people get question 2 wrong you score six,and so on. It's a scoring idea I've thought about before,so see this as a good place to try it.

On the first table (most correct answers),there will be tie-breaks in this order Q11,12,13,14,15 and so on until somebody wins.

With any luck, I am hoping to provide small prizes in the future, (but I'm still in the process of selling myself at the moment!)


Good luck.Answers soon and no cheeky cheating
Enjoy..........................................






This week is:
These are various views of capital cities around the world. Simply(?) name the city. (I'm hoping there are a few clues in the pictures,but it is quite tricky)

I've tried not to be too obscure,with these - maybe one or two,but not many.


Enjoy.............

Surnames only are fine ,unless you are specifically asked for the first or other name(s).
