I think he is actually American, but from Berlin. So we're all right.

I met Golfinos from the other week in the pub a couple of weeks ago. Well, I say "met", he was across from us with my assorted quiz nerd mates going "look, it's Golfinos from University Challenge" in his general direction. We didn't speak to him.

"I haven't finished the question". I don't think Paxo quite understands how a buzzer quiz works.
― ailsa, Monday, 1 October 2018 22:26 (five years ago) link
Was that the one where he gave one correct answer but paxo wanted two? I can see why paxo would think that was a dumb mistake, but only because he knew the whole question, which the guy didn't.
Beret girl was quietly impressive, especially with the literature, but that didn't stop the walrus leaning away from her towards the other guys every single time.

The captain of the other team was quite pleased to be answering the Kinks questions, mostly correctly.
However, after that they went back to watching the telly, prob had some pizza or something.

second team didn't seem to get that picking the third row also completes the fourth row and you can use that as a sanity check, rather than randomly picking 4 out of 5 shakespeare-based things.
