Can't be bothered

[landie]

Can we have a section for those who can't be bothered googling before asking all their crossword questions on this site. I thought the fun was in the searching, not someone elsa providing you with all of the answers. No pain no gain.

To be fair to them landie, googling often takes people straight to this site.

I second that, FP! too many times now ive googled quizzes and puzzles and it's come up with this site!

[landie]

I disagree, when you google you are given several alternatives, this is merely the easy option. I prefer to exhaust all avenues before troubling the kind folk who are using the Answerbank.

I agree with landie. Sure some questions put in to  google do lead you to this site (in fact that's how I found it) and that's fair enough, but when the question is what year did the Berlin wall come down, or who was the 3rd last Conservative Prime Minister, you get many options often including the answer in about 10 seconds.

I just don't get what pleasure could be had by doing a puzzle or quiz where you get someone else to answer all the questions.

You could always try putting clues only OR links as your reply.

Don't get me wrong, It's the ones that want an answer to every clue in the crossword which I think are devaluing themselves.
