A new month and a new leaderboard. Just a reminder of how goodly or badly you did in the last one:

Previous Leaderboard

• Kendra K: 370 points (played 3 games)


• Ballbag: 355 points (played 3 games)
• Zoot: 350 points (played 3 games)
• Sunny So Cal: 330 Points (played 3 games)
• Andy B: 285 points (played 3 games)
• Topher: 255 points (played 3 games)
• Pjordan2000: 220 points (played 2 game)
• Ezza: 195 points (played 3 games)
• Charlalottie: 190 points (played 2 games)
• Yudster: 135 points (played 1 game)

Da rools:

• There are three rounds in each game. Each question is harder than the one before it.
• Each question in round one is worth 5 points, round two is 10 points and round three is 15 points.
• Checking your answers is not allowed (i.e. googling them).
• However, you have two chances to get help throughout the quiz. These lifelines take the form of being allowed to check two of your answers on Google, but you need to indicate that you have done so. These answers will only get you five points each, regardless of which round they are in.
• To give your answers, please reply with only the question number and the letter A, B, C or D. This way it shouldn't be spoiled for those answering after you. I'll probably not give the correct answers for a couple of days.

So will Kendra keep hold of her title? Will Ballbag steal her crown and become the Queen? Will Topher start cheating and actually win something? Or could it be a newbie thats never showed off their knowledge? Lets find out as we play Who Wants To Eat A Juicy Pear...
