Hey Seb, are you coming? Been here for 5 hours now!!!

That's nothing man. I think our man Doug here has a catheter and a Maxwell House IV. He's in for the long haul. :D

:w:

Shit! Doug, what's wrong with you, man??? What are you like the hulk or some shit??? :eek:

Your eyes are getting heavy, Doug..... veeeery heavy............. you're getting sleeepy..... just let goooo, Doug.... that's it.. Sweet, sweet sleep.... *yaaawwwwn*

eriously, though, it's 3:30 in the morning, guys (you're both down in Fl and it's 3:30 there too.) I'm done for the day.

It'd be funny if Seb doesn't show up for a couple o' days........

Peace,
Al.

Hi all!

I came for a visit my friends. How are you Doug? Still awake? Not for too long, the hitman is in Tampa. Poor Doug.
Hey Sebatron, it would be great to not post any question for some days. Maybe a week. :D :D :D

chrissugar

OK…I’m back. :(

Then there will be at least one hour (maybe two )before the next question.
At which point I will post up the progressive scores.

Hey Dudes I’m back. All went well…I shipped off a couple of units , caught up with the metalwork devision about some tweaking on boxes. Ordered some more stock…etc. :D

CURRENT SCORES TO FOLLOW SHORTLY. :w:

…actually I think I’ll award cornflake another 5 points for the photo
Well Done….beautiful picture.

Chris ,, you still have a chance believe it or not.
Not a very big one though… you can have 2 points ‘cause you’re not here.
….Doug , I’ll ‘round you off to 105 because you’re there almost perpetually.
Good to see a newbie on the scene ….Freaky!!
You get the 10 points by default.

The new scores are:

SCORES:

ALK509 15 points

CONSUL 20 points

CORNFLAKEOFDEATH 70 points

CHRISSUGAR 17 points

DOUG102938@aol.com 105 points

SKEETCH 35 points

TEKKER 10 points

FREAKY 10 points

…. I may be out +/- 5 points , but to me the above is almost fair.
Maybe Doug deserves a bit more…..maybe he’ll get them later on.
Where’s Alk and Consul…?
..will they reappear?
…have they had enough of ‘Seb’s Little Games’…. A ha- ha- ha – ha – ha :D
…have they failed the test? :p

Good luck to you all.

The Answer to this next question MUST , I repeat , MUST be posted at the right time.
That time is approximately four hours from now.
Let’s say… 2.45 am Melbourne Australia Time.
Excactly.

If it is posted any earlier you may jeopardise the whole game for yourself .Don’t blow it.
IT’S YOUR CHOICE.
..one second too early then …. Bang……nothing….finished….no more points…

02.45 melbourne time don’t forget that.

If you are second to post AFTER the required time , you will get half the points.
20 points for first in
10 points for second in
… after 2.45 Melbourne Time that is.

Take your time thinking about this one , it’s not that easy …. Or maybe it is… :D

I may be back then , if not … then I’ve been trapped and won’t be back ‘till at least 10.45 am.
No need to elaborate …. Just the Sebatron world.

Use that time to chill out , enjoy life …. And think about the good times you’ll have with the notion that YOU MAY BE THE WINNER. :tu:

Damn, I've got an appointment for a root canal in about three hours... Best of luck Doug!

A/ chemist who developed the
periodic classification of the elements.

Thank you Sebatron for the 2 points. You are generous but I only accept to come back if you give me at least half of the maximum obtainable points in this contest or you garantee that the preamp is mine.

B.T.W. I calculated that if I would stay all day long on the net like Doug it would cost me aprox. 20$/day. If this contest will last a month or more it would be a lot of money. And my connection is slow and bad. Do you still think I have any chance.

chrissugar

Just out of contest

A: chemist, periodic classification of the elements

B: William Orbit , BLUR Album:THINK TANK

I think some of the chairs at Tech Talk are empty.

.. lead singer of the Beatles ...

I think there may be some that would like to appeal that one.

Sorry,
I'm posting and taking up bandwidth but I just had to say,

C'mon CFOD ( even though we have email trouble .. he is a Group DIY member ).

AND .. Chris !! :(

Oh, and one more thing,
" The truth is out there "

Thanks Kev! I'm trying, but Doug here is a machine, and he's got a pretty good lead. You never know though. Sebatron has kept it interesting, and there's no telling what could happen. At the very least I'll make Doug sweat a little. :D

OK I’m back. :(

I picked up that ‘PINK’ single the other day… great depth.Kinda like a hole around 160 HZ or something.Is that Deep Purple or Hendrix I hear there?…Majic Carpet Ride?

TEKKER … gets 20 points

That’s if there actually is a definitive answer.
This question is one of the reasons I wanted to have this quiz in the first place.
Help me out.

C/ WHO IS CREDITED ( which song/artist/producer ) AS BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SO-CALLED ‘ FADE OUT ‘ TECHNIQUE EMPLOYED DURING THE POP RECORDING / MIX DOWN PROCESS…..
Or
WHY WAS IT USED AT ALL?>>WHERE DID IT COME FROM?

…you know what I mean?
…just curious.
…. Possible 30 points

D/ What was the name of Scotts’ favourite Dog? …. only worth 3 points.

Good Luck and don’t post your answers before 4.30 pm MELBOURNE TIME or anytime after 4.40 pm MELBOURNE TIME.
Those who post outside those times may be penalised.
I’ll work out the respective scores then.
Good Luck.
