| I managed to 100% the one Mas made.
I did terribly on Balla's and Jay's, I couldn't make connections but I was good at explaining them.
Smurf's and Rum's I was okay at.

| Screwed the pooch on that one huh.  I'll get around to the other ones, I promise; and maybe make an easier one next time. |

| 1/10 and 6/10 - I solved the second wall with barely any time left but couldn't get all the connections! |

| I think I got 2/10 or something like that on Mas'. 3/10 from Cappa's first from guessing, and 6/10 on his second with all connections and two groupings! - And one nearly:
I got Chrono Trigger and Assassin's Creed, but said 1080 over SSX! 
7/10 for Rum's, missing out on one that everyone will say I should have got.  1/10 for Moyles. 5/10 for Cappa 1: - Spoiler:
Got all the links, clearly mostly by luck because I only got Game Freak out of the connections.
And then 2/10 for Cappa 2 BUT - Spoiler:
I was nearly there on most of the connections! Put 'Pokémon' for the remakes one but they wouldn't take it - the accent maybe? Football for the PES one, and guessed GameCube colours for the other two - which I maintain was close!
Hopefully easier than last time. |

Maybe a little harder 6/10 on both of these. Really nice ones, could see the connections pretty early but then could never quite remember what was what. |

I'm terrible at Only Connect, even when the clues are gaming related. I can at least answer a couple of questions correctly on University Challenge, but Only Connect seems to be designed for otherworldly intellectuals. |

| Cappa 6 - Spoiler:
Got all the groups. Didn't get issue 1 - I grouped them correctly, and thought it was something to do with the date, but didn't tie it in
Didn't get the WiiU thing either
Cappa Colours 4 - Spoiler:
Got the Pokemon remakes and PES
Didn't get the last groups - N64 one seemed embarrasing
Balla 3 - Spoiler:
I got no 4s at all - I kept finding more things that could be a 4, but also a 5 and a 6. I guess that's like the real Only Connect, but  Did get the Mario RPG, Gameboy and Sunshine things (agaiin, I had a feeling that's what they were)

| I was absolutely baws at Balladeer's quiz - I think I'm better at making these than I am at playing them. Speaking of which, here's a new quiz:
Sport & Fitness & Tarrant On TV |

| - Cappa "nothing nasty" 2/10:
Ooft, struggled here. Didn't match any of the links myself, but got the GameFreak one when it was shown to me. It gave me the cancelled Wii U games link for typing "crowdfunded" though. 
- Cappa "maybe a little harder" 6/10:
It wasn't a little harder, did alright here! Got all the matches and then managed to get the PES teams and the Pokemon remake names.
- Balladeer 5/10:
Got the Sunshine and Mario RPG links, didn't get the others, not bad!
- Cappa "Sport and Fitness and Tarrant on TV" 10/10:
Nailed this one! Instantly got the Dhalsim link and the rest just fell into place after that.
- Mas 7/10:
Chuffed I got the CHVRCHES link!
Made another one for you to all enjoy. |

| Easy grid from Mas, hard links - of which I got one. 5/10. Pretty much the same from Moyles: should've gone simpler with the group with JCvD in! |

| Cappa 6/10 - Spoiler:
(Got Brain Training and T & F wrong - although the brain one should've been obvious)
Mas 6/10 - Spoiler:
(Didn't get MSX or Chvrches - the latter because I am an old person. Are they like Tears for Fears?)
Jay 5/10 - Spoiler:
(Didn't get the point for VG actors - boo! Or GamesMaster or Monster Hunter)
I'm sorry I haven't had the time to contribute to this |

| - Jay & Muss:
Just 2/10 for them both - I got Jay's actors link, and I got Muss's basketball link. I think most folk could do better with Jays, but Muss's would need an American History MSc to get any higher a score.
Here's my Saturday quiz: 10/10s all round? |
