Best ignore any odds for me, in circa 3 years of participation I have got a total of 1.5 marks, and 0.5 was for LOG giving me those for amusing him as opposed to a correct answer :S

Never done this before
My one piece of advice to Stroudy is don’t bother with a fancy leaderboard. It very quickly becomes a right chore.
Thing is, if I do do a leaderboard, I'll make sure it's a good one.

2/1 Swanny
3/1 Lionel, Spoonz

25/1 Mr Jan Yeo, RaeUK
1,000/1 Lez
I suggest Lez the Fez @ 20/1. He's bound to have a trick up his sleeve. ....(It's 5 a.m. - what d'ya expect?)

Have some of these people EVER got a question right??? #pointsinthelasttwoyears.
I believe we have some nul pointers in there but talent could be lurking in the pis*ant swamp ready to hatch out.

Are you trying to persuade the Bookie to give you better odds with fake memories ? This particular elephant recalled this from Oman in 2015
