October 1Oct 1 No incorrects! So should have done ok in the placings. But I'm annoyed about Ultravox, I discarded it as being too popular! Edited October 1Oct 1 by rio309

I know from previous quiz seasons that Pointless questions are notoriously hard to set, because there has to be a line between what "right" and "wrong" answers are - which for some people might be part of the game, to come up with answers which could be borderline correct depending on interpretation, but it's a headache for the host if they have an understanding of the question, and then someone comes up with a different understanding. (Whereas in Family Fortunes people will mostly steer clear of ambiguous answers, and if you just go by how many people chose each answer, it shouldn't matter if they're right or wrong.)Oh it's 100% just joking from Jason, and I am actually championing you on... GET HIM OUT! 😘😂 (Yes I am a backstabbing traitor!)
October 1Oct 1 Surprised 070 Shake didn't get a mention for 8 considering how recent and popular Escapism. was! Also bit peeved and amazed that @dandy* collided with me yet again! Only found the band through chart searching, thinking the name was cool, and hoping they were obscure enough to get unmentioned. But I forgot that I have a long lost twin I share telepathic connections with which puts me at a disadvantage in this game.
October 1Oct 1 Haha - yes that didn't escape my attention either This was not a good round for me at all, I'm only taking solace that I managed to spot the Rasmus for the Eurovision one and got away with it!
October 1Oct 1 Two incorrect answers, not a great start to the quiz season for me! I'd be lying if I said I wasn't annoyed about my "incorrect" answer for Q1 because I did see that he had a previous number 1 but in my mind I just assumed that something listed as a mixtape wouldn't count as an album so I thought I was being clever by going for it. But I can totally see why it could be interpreted differently so I will graciously accept the host's decision!Not looking forward to seeing the scoreboard tomorrow

Thanks for pointing out - I'll update when I get home before I post the scoreboard.(I use a Python program to tot up the scores so one of them must have an extra space or something for it to see them as different 😅)

October 2Oct 2 3 points off first place.So much better than the previous Pointless I did (last year?) and answering a few questions incorrectly!
October 2Oct 2 Oh I wasn't expecting a win, awesome! Congrats to Riser on the tie 👍 and thanks Pete for hosting!
October 2Oct 2 Pleased to start off the season with a top 10 placing!Congrats to our joint winners gasman + Jordan and thanks for a great hosting job, Pete.
October 2Oct 2 Top 10! Pretty sure that's a first for me at Pointless and possibly any quiz. Thanks for hosting Pete!
October 2Oct 2 Well done you two! Not unhappy with joint 6th to start; at least I made no slip ups.Thanks for hosting Pete, some fun questions.
October 2Oct 2 Congratulations @gasman449 and @Riser hope ya stub ya toes whilst celebrating 🙄🤣17th I demand a recount 🤣🤣🤣 At least it wasn't last 🙈
October 2Oct 2 Congrats gasman and Jordan! Not my misreading of the Reshuffle chart as the multichart costing me a win I was on 8 points before that!! Even then, I almost went with 'APT.' which not only would have been a correct answer as it topped both charts, but would also have been pointless! Guess I'll take best of the wrong answers club as a consolation Thanks for the game Pete, it was fun to come up with answers for this!
