Personally I pick those on the subjects where I am strongest so that I can constantly choose those subjects and use the specialists as an insurance policy in the event that I dont know the answer myself.

Invincible mode would normally be good on a machine I think I must have meant impossible.

Teddy Sheringham??

this is about FA cup final goals- Im pretty sure Alan Sunderland Scored in 1979 for Arsenal and presumably Villa for spurs in 1981 but no idea re 1980 goalscorer

QM I know that the Goldent Tee system wasn't perfect and could still be abused by anyone determined enough but it certainly did dissuade the majority. If anyone has a better suggestion I'm all ears.

This is great as means that all itboxes effectively have three independent WU installations with two of them effectively virgin territory (for now at least). Can't see the easy pickings lasting ...

Had a go on this at lunch and it did not show leaderboard. Presumably the pros will clean up by winning in several locations? On a more positive note having swiftly JPed the online version, I noticed that if you switch to the 50p play offfered through the GRand Master edition, the JP does not affect...

Must admit had a punt on this at lunch and not too impressed. Its basically pub quiz with irritating bits in between.
