Oh wow... thanks... Had no concept of that at all....
So I'll concentrate all efforts in one area and hit the play names...
Peace (lowest choice for a Pointless guess)
Lysistrata
Assemblywomen
(not part of my guesses) One starts with T-- Th.... I can't remember that one completely, probably no one else can either...

Edit (wow I got Mod powers!)
(not part of my guesses) One starts with T-- Th....lots of letters after it--typical Greek long name-- I can't remember that one completely, probably no one else can either...

Apologies... for messing up things...flow of the game
You went to bed, had a nice respite...
Wish I could go back and start day over again...
One of those "days" ("deep sigh" Smiley goes here if there was one)

What? I'm not going to bed. You can edit? I don't understand what you're doing.

* offtopic :
Oh my I'M SORRY!
American style humor.....
I was saying... (here I go typing a looonnng time its ok, its only in fun)
As I was saying before I interrupted myself (small joke there from Monty Python you know--interruption within the explanation of a joke)---that I know you went to bed..I know you were tired.... I got up today tired and everything has gone downhill from there.... so I'm ready to go back to bed and just begin whole day over again (including the writing of my feeble attempts at humor earlier)
And same goes for the 'Edit' joke... Of course I have no Mod powers! The great bird of the galaxy (for those who recognize that humor in America) 'Ray' has not seen fit to equip me with such powers (Thank goodness for all of those others here!!!!)
Ok, end of humor... I'm interrupting the flow of the game... all of these should have been 'offtopic' I guess....

Okie doke. Your first answer and the one you thought was least likely to be pointless was PEACE. Let's see how low that can take us.

Your second answer was LYSISTRATA. Can that do any better than four? Will it be pointless? Let's find out.

Congratulations, Practice, you win our jackpot of nothing. Joeyy | 31-01-2015 20:06
THE ASSEMBLYWOMEN was also pointless. Great job.
Great job.PracticePractic | 31-01-2015 20:13
I graciously bow and accept your jackpot of nothing for Pointless #28!
Thanks for a fun game! Hope those watching/reading have had fun too!!
* offtopic :
so what one did I almost remember (other than ones I think everyone with good British schooling got like Birds Frogs, Wasps, Clouds, The Knight) that was "Th _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ is or us at end long long word?) What did that one get?

You don't need to use the off-topic tag if something relates to the game.
'Thesmophoriazusae'? Amazingly not a pointless answer.

You're welcome.

Yes!.,... that's the one..... wow, everyone there can spell it right and remembers it... (and I had to take ancient Greek plus Latin!) I'm certain I forgot more than others would ever know...
zjenn4 | 02-02-2015 05:20
lol, Practice. But well done nonetheless!

*Introductory theme tune*
Last week saw our pointless answers leader board shook up a bit. Jen is now only one behind B, Sierra's stacking them up, and Practice is shooting up there quite quickly for a newcomer. Jeremy also added his name to it.
Rules of the quiz:
- One answer per person (per round)
- Always give the answer you think the fewest amount of people would know
- If two people give the same answer in a short space of time, the first person's answer will be accepted (but the second can answer again)
- When applicable, a player may pick the same subject as another contestant and provide a different answer if they believe the other to be incorrect
- If you play the first round, please check back in case you make it through to Round #2
- Resist cheating (i.e. searching online for answers)
And of course, respect your fellow contestants and have fun!
Round #1 will be posted shortly and will remain open until Monday (or, when applicable, until each answer is taken) to give everyone a chance of replying.
