What happened to the Gizmo Quiz?

Did we lose a host?

Maybe we should roll back to the last known winner and restart with them hosting?

Good idea - I've missed the Gizmo Quiz these last couple of weeks.

Even when I've not been able to take part directly, I'd always look and see what the Gizmo was and how it was identified...

Yep, if you can't host and won't get a replacement, you shouldn't participate.

After some Foo-Digging:-

Looks like someone didn't turn up to host, so an "Unofficial" game was launched which iamlost won:-

[webmasterworld.com...]

So if you're up for hosting iamlost?

If not, one before that was me (guy who won mine didn't host), so I'll re-host on Saturday (can do) and we'll pick it up from there.

TJ, if you've got one ready, why not go ahead and start the ball rolling?

I don't have one ready, and my last one got guessed in seconds, so what say we give iamlost until tomorrow morning to reply and if we don't hear by then I'll host again and do a time notification tomorrow?

Thanks, TJ for bringing this up, it has been on my mind, too.

In fact I was thinking of posting a quiz announcement tomorrow because I miss the quiz!

don't know if I have a suitable gizmo, though - will look in my gizmo folder

everyone and their brother client-wise is calling today, they must know I'll be at pubcon next week and won't be here at their beck and call...

Hey Lisa - would be great if you could host, and if you have a suitable Gizmo.....

I'll find a gizmo if I don't have one. Consider it done! :)

Hooray!

And all the foo-ites lived happily ever after basking in the warm glow of a Gizmo Quiz sunset......

Perfect! A Gizmo Quiz is great, but a Gizmo Quiz that LisaB can't win is even better!

So LisaB wins because I'm actually working instead of foo-ing ... she always wins ... sob ... she always picks gizmos that I can't guess ... snivel ...

Looking forward to losing again ... see you all Saturday ... at least when she hosts the rest of you have a chance.

Last time I checked, AI's don't drink beer, and I most certainly do. ;)
