AB competition

[dot.hawkes]

hello Mrs Ed, would it be feasible for this site to operate a weekly competition to establish the silliest question of the week? purely in a light hearted and non vindictive manner? There have been some candidates this week already and it might be fun.

[aka estie]

Good idea Dot. There have been some doozies this week. This is my favourite daft question: http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Question245880.html

[dot.hawkes]

ooooo bez good selection, i know that Bobtheturkey is normally a deep thinking individual but he must have had a glitch there, though in his favour it was a reflection of an earlier more silly thread. still, i would second the nomination.

[aka estie]

Oooh can I submit another for consideration? This one

[dot.hawkes]

All good, i have nominated this one as it is not just topical but I like the risk element and 5/5 for creativity

[Redbel]

Dot can I have this as a contender aswell, it's not silly but it made me laugh :)

[dot.hawkes]

bez, it is silly, very silly, which is probably why it made u laugh.

[joko]

would be fun - but unfortunately the board would just get swamped with competitors deliberately vie-ing(sp) for the title

[dot.hawkes]

have you a nomination joko?

[Pippa68]

As my first choice has already been nominated I will go with this one

[wonderwoman1]

i think anything by bob should win only cos he is my AB hero!!

[joko]

ooh dot, far too many to mention these days! ;oD

[B00]

I love the Springwatch one too- you could almost hear that guy wishing he'd never asked it!

The eye colour one hurt my 2 brain cells :-(

[unruliejulie]

You'd just get people sitting and thinking up the daftest questions ever though,can you imagine some of the rubbish we would get? It would only encourage the totally ididotic ones!

[Octavius]

as opposed to...?

[unruliejulie]

I did use the word, encourage, i knew someone would put that. I know it already happens but it would get even worse! Every other question would be stupid! At least at the moment, its probably only every five or so questions!!!! i must admit thopugh, i do enjoy some of the sillier Qs, they can certainly give you a laugh
