  • 13:09:35: Ok. now we start with the real thing. Remm 5,3,1 is the scoring pattern. All the best. Here's Q1: http://www.kweezzz.com/txt/287
  • 13:11:56: Most of the questions pertain to the last 4-5 Olympic Games. I suspect the majority of the kweezzing popn shud be familiar with those.

  • 13:20:39: Not a lot of attempts on this one so Ill give a hint. Its the '36 Berlin Games.
  • 13:21:47: its nothing about Louganis or Spitz. Its gt nothing to do with Aquatics. Thats just one of the most famous scenes from the film.

  • 13:33:44: This was in the 1924 match btwn Arg and Uru. An Argentinian scored this way and since Uruguay were the defending Olympic champs the name...

  • 14:23:14: The last question has something to do with the athlete's contingent-representation.
  • 14:24:15: Its not the Unified Team. Close though. The Unified team won 45 Golds and topped the table. So somehting more unique!
