The scores of this round do indicate a level of difficulty expressed by members playing. @Grizzly21 made his Sheep debut only losing out on 4 points to the top spot. Stats Tom is the most beloved cartoon cat in this group and although he does get a walloping from Jerry on a regular basis he has helped a whole slew of the participants achieve scores in the upper 20s. Alexa based products currently rule Amazon's roost of products sold. In the interest of science (ahem) I did check into @Harry's answer and I couldn't find it as a top contender anywhere in the world. I even tried those 'special' websites but no luck. Nike's Air Max is not only one of their most sold products its also one of their most customized shoes spanning over 60 colour variations and even in the Customize bucket of the Nike store. While Gammon shares the same base as Bacon there can only be one and surprisingly a lot of people went for chips and I expected a higher value there but it never materialized and Bacon came out the winner (as it always should) Note: I'll be posting the overall scores shortly.

Elsewhere, Mr Consistent aka ( @Stan ) scores a 30 across two rounds to find himself in second position overtaking @nudge who only drops to third on a points differential due to poor breakfast choices coupled with a love of James Bond over Vin Diesel. It's a close pack in the top 5 and we could see a lot of shifting around in the next round. Could I also trouble an admin to please pin this post? Thank you in advance.

Elsewhere, its been a horrible month for Scots as @CaaC (John) had a great round and almost overtook our resident Welsh-man to the top but it wasn't to be. @Bluebird Hewitt flipped the table this week and ended up top of the weekly roost. The middle pack did a bit of shuffling and this week sees someone in the 10s which is odd but theres still hope as there are two rounds left and two more surprises with them as well. Stats When Freddy vs Jason came out it caused so much debate about who would win that in the end the writers decided to cop-out and let them both live. The members on this forum don't think so and we have a clear winner, Jason.

Its true. @DeadLinesman leads the week pack with a score of 36 that also happens to be the highest weekly score of the season. In second place is @Dr. Gonzo followed by @Stan who keeps his scoring average above 30. At the bottom of the list is @Pyfish who has stolen @CaaC (John)s title while the mid-pack all stay within 1 or 2 points of each other. Stats Although Ibanez guitars have been played by many legendary guitarists it finds it home in Japan not America. Godzilla gave King Kong a proper beating and has now gone to sleep while the the ape asks questions from his other unfortunate cousin Donkey Kong. The trick question of the round also yielded the highest gathering of sheep as Anakin Skywalker pushes to the top of the list. Kylo Ren hasn't turned yet but there's evidence he will and turns out to be the ace of this round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Daily Double activated we will see a big shift in the Overall scores for the season and it comes at an opportune time considering this is the last round for the Season too. Stats Red Bull has a serious love-hate with the community on here but everyone recognizes it as an Energy Drink and not the evil moguls of the football universe The first Playstation Sony put out did not beat its music-tech industry for popularity until it went viral in the west and now the name Sony is synonymous with their gaming console. One of you has some seriously great bedding and is sporting some quality Egyptian Cotton. I'll let the community decide who that is. Overall scores for the season coming in soon.

The winner of this season is @nudge with a grand score of 162. @Stan gave her a run before being usurped by Feathers and undone by the Fox. I genuinely expected more Leicester answers with the latter but it wasn't to be. Our duo run of @Grizzly21 and @DeadLinesman find themselves nestled at the bottom but thats only because round 1 went for a full zero points. The top 4 was such a close battle that if anyone had scored anywhere between 2 and 3 points it could all have ended differently. Season 5 will be up in mid-November and the them will be All Things Orient. I won't be doing any of the monkey-shennanigans I did with points in this edition and it will be more straight-forward. If you'd like to be a part of it let me know and I'll put a thread up for it. I'll start one anyways somewhere next week. Thank you everyone for playing.
