*Introductory theme tune*

Brought to you by...thhhe Space Pope.

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. looking up answers; asking others)

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.

* offtopic :
The records of previous winners and pointless answers can be found here.

hooray for garbage jeopardy style knowledge

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 01:51

Final round to possibly win our jackpot of nothing?

fishmunky | 22-06-2015 02:31

make it so

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:03

Awesome, here are your five topics to pick from:

ANIMALS
HOLLYWOOD WILLIAMS
LITERARY JOHNS
POETRY
SCIENCE AND MATHS

They all have three sub-categories.

fishmunky | 22-06-2015 03:04

animals

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:09

Damn that was a fast answer. Positive? It's dogs more than animals really.

fishmunky | 22-06-2015 03:12

yeah its fine

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:16

"Final"

All right, here we go. Don't forget, I need three answers and you need one of them to be pointless to win that jackpot. I am looking for...

LASSIE FILMS
The title of any of the original seven Lassie films from the 40s and 50s.

FIRST DOGS SINCE 1977
Any dog belonging to any US president since Jimmy Carter.

BREEDS OF TERRIER AT CRUFTS
Any breed of terrier listed on the Crufts website. Crufts is a famous dog show held here each year. I'd just think of the category as "Breeds of terrier".

Best of luck!

fishmunky | 22-06-2015 03:25

Breeds of Terriers:

Cairn terrier
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Border Terrier

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:49

More than I would've been able to say, I suck at dog and cat breeds. I'll take them in that order, then - CAIRN TERRIER, what did it score?

Four! Not pointless, but a brilliant score nevertheless. The breed of the dog in Wizard of Oz, I believe.

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:54

Your second answer is the STAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIER. Let's see if that does any better.

Thirteen - a jump up there, but you still have another answer to go.

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 03:57

The BORDER TERRIER - third and final chance at winning that jackpot of zilch. Is it a right answer? Is it pointless?

It's right, but it scores eight, I'm afraid. But never mind! You still beat off your competitors in the non-sexual way to win the quiz, so virtual drinks on me.

Joeyy | 22-06-2015 04:09

So the pointless answers for that category would have been...

AUSTRALIAN SILKY TERRIER
AUSTRALIAN TERRIER
CESKY TERRIER
DANDIE DINMONT TERRIER
ENGLISH TOY TERRIER
GLEN OF IMAAL TERRIER
KERRY BLUE TERRIER
MANCHESTER TERRIER
SEALYHAM TERRIER
TIBETAN TERRIER
WELSH TERRIER

Tough final category. If anyone wants to have a go at the US president dogs before I give the pointless ones...?

fishmunky | 22-06-2015 10:04

so close.

CarlJ | 26-06-2015 11:48

congrats on the win Ant. Back in the office today...just catching up....
