  • 12:39:13: 1. Easy as shit to start with. http://ow.ly/i/8xXr
  • 12:41:36: Well, to recap, a rebus is a visual puzzle. You folks have identified the man correctly but you need use everything else in the picture too.
  • 12:43:43: Cracked then. Like abbas, #LikeABoss. Cheap whiskey drinker @Gunmaster_G9 gets 100, @ar_J_un 99 and @UnnamedEntity also gets some points.
  • 12:45:05: 2. Again, slighta easy only. Drink more, think less. http://ow.ly/i/8xYe
  • 12:46:54: You guys were on it like a shastribot on a simile. Christian Bale. Also, #meta.
  • 12:47:40: Bragging rights to @UnnamedEntity, @GhantaGuy, @sriks7. @daddy_san missing out by a microsecond. AT&T, one would assume.
  • 12:48:52: 3. To more wordier rebuses then. http://ow.ly/i/8xYF
  • 12:49:36: CAN SOMEONE GET THIS CREEPY-ASS CHOOTSUITE OWL TO STOP BLINKING AT ME?
  • 12:50:57: Alright. Slightly guilty to leave you guys groping in the dark. It's a phrase I'm looking for.
  • 12:52:44: Semicrack by one fellow with tricolour DP. #noShitSherlock
  • 12:53:51: CRACKED by one person. Like a boss of a company that makes G6s.
  • 12:54:52: Alright closing the question. The answer is was looking for was baseless allegations. No no don't go..wait...the others are bette.... aargh.
  • 12:55:56: Well done @vamc_c, @unnamedEntity and @GhantaGuy. Also well done to those who are copy pasting their answers now. #IITSnob
  • 12:56:59: 4. DAMN I forgot to get her flowers. http://ow.ly/i/8xZD

  • 12:58:26: Looking for a phrase again.
  • 12:59:41: 5 Point someone? 5 POINT SOMEONE? I would rather have sex with @zenmaster3 than rebus C-Bag novel. Also, limited offer. Conditions apply.
  • 13:01:04: RT @MusicAloud: @kweezzz tera karoon gin gin gin ke intezaar?? :)
  • 13:01:46: This rebus is like an orgy. The number of numbers is not important.
  • 13:02:27: Question closing the next time THIS CREEPY FUCKING OWL BLINKS
  • 13:03:09: Ok closed. The answer is was looking for is It's the thought that counts.
  • 13:03:57: There was a speech bubble and a thought bubble. The speech bubble did not count. The thought did. #fullFundaMachaan
  • 13:05:24: 5. http://ow.ly/i/8y0u
  • 13:07:58: Paul Collingwood. @UnnamedEntity @mihirfadnavis and @GhantaGuy (who seems to be super fast at typing or is not drunk. Either way, bastard!)
  • 13:08:49: 6. Walk into the square circle. http://ow.ly/i/8y0T
  • 13:10:46: Excellent cracks b y @mihirfadnavis, @gauravsabnis and @punvati. Obvious that the migrant crowd in Maharashtra has really helped the Ghatis.
  • 13:11:28: The answer of course was Batista. 32 TAs there. Also, too much of a clue.
  • 13:12:12: 7. Too much orange juice yaaaa. http://ow.ly/i/8y1m
  • 13:13:59: Another easy one, well done @rebus, @nayakgirin, @sriks7 and @gauravsabnis. After all, in the end rebus was the winner.
  • 13:14:49: My attempt was to pad 2 tough ones with 2 easy ones in the beginning and end. But we cannot ignore one non-sensical, poor joke rebus.
  • 13:16:13: Last one. As promised in the spoiler alert. Please make sure @ashvala is not watching. http://ow.ly/i/8y1Z
  • 13:17:50: Again feeling so much guilty for leaving you guys in the dark, without a clue. AND THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA STAY BITCH.
  • 13:18:50: In other news, Wiki admins are puzzled at why so many people are querying for Pigeon Pea..
  • 13:20:07: And well cracked by the frighteningly intelligent @UnnamedEntity. @sriks7 and @GhantaGuy follow suite. In my case, chootsuite.
  • 13:21:14: That's that. Hope you enjoyed them. Rebuses can be very difficult and serious with full fundae, as folks taught me at @ballsbypicasso.
  • 13:22:12: Goodnight and thank god. This chutiya owl will stop blinking at me now. Bye!
  • 13:23:50: ... oopsie! Forgot to add the answer for the last one amid my South Park-esque what we learned ending. The answer is ofc, "Toor de France"
  • 21:58:46: Hello kweezzzlings, Make sure to tune to Star Wars #kweezzz- sat:1130pm IST /1300 EST 1000PST by @shrinipedia - May the force be with you

  • 01:43:46: Folks this is @krtgrphr with the promise of a faster-fingers-first World Cup stills quiz. All up for it say 'Aye'. Aye Cee Cee, that is.
  • 01:45:24: Right bad puns apart, significant interest has been shown. We'll start in a quarter of an hour, at 11:30 IST. Get those lunches ready!
  • 01:59:59: Right, let's get started with this easy-peasy World Cup Stills quiz then. Standard rules, 5-3-2 scoring. 10 questions. Question 1 coming up.
  • 02:00:45: Q1: Name the umpire from this worldfamous yet equally painful shot: http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/5517/69495602.jpg
  • 02:02:14: No sir, there is only one God on the cricket field ... RT @sushovande: @kweezzz Morgan Freeman
  • 02:03:51: Looks like some of you are having issues with the link. It's just a jpeg, should work for all - and I'm getting answers in regardless.
  • 02:04:38: A1: That was BC Cooray, the umpire who copped one on the ear from Richie Richardson. Points to @rudrajitdatta, @abhigopal, @i_r_squared.
  • 02:06:18: Q2: This is a still from a video. What happened next? Take your best guesses. http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/2257/99508275.jpg
  • 02:07:05: @nb42 @Veekay80 Images should display on mobile phones - I've made sure I'm using jpg links.
  • 02:08:57: A2: Universally cracked. The "you just dropped the WC mate" moment from WC 1999. Points @degree_kapi, @rudrajitdatta, @amitjoshmachine.

  • 02:18:23: A4: Indeed, that was the late Pakistan PM, Benazir Bhutto presenting WC 1996 to Arjuna Ranatunga. At the Gadaffi.
  • 02:19:17: Points for Q4 to @degree_kaapi, @kshira_saagar and @rudrajitdatta.
  • 02:19:41: Slight correction on the points for Q3: looks like @degree_kaapi got it first, so let's give the man 5 points as well.
  • 02:21:17: Q5: What was special about this game? http://i.imgur.com/JJknZ.jpg
  • 02:22:11: That's not the W Indies, it's Australia ...
  • 02:23:23: A5: Indeed, that was the first WC match to be played under lights. @degree_kaapi, @nayakgirin and @soporifix chase it down.
  • 02:24:40: At the halfway point, @degree_kaapi is #pwNing this quiz like the Aussies did WCs with 20 points. @rudrajitdatta is second with 10.
  • 02:26:49: Q6: Let's come out of the half with a googly - a non-WC question. Name the one-trick batsman: http://i.imgur.com/bOz1m.jpg
  • 02:28:43: A6: Wellplayed all. That was Hrishikesh Kanitkar pwning Saqlain Mushtaq in Dhaka. Pts: @degree_kaapi, @sushovande and @kshira_saagar.
  • 02:30:32: Q7: Speaking of a moment of crowded glory, who is this that gave us one of the most endearing moments from '96? http://i.imgur.com/IwBP0.jpg
  • 02:30:45: I meant the WK, of course.
  • 02:31:21: @87_arghya Indeed - I did advertise it as a faster-fingers-first thing. But there are some slight toughies coming up. :-)
  • 02:32:18: Again, I'm looking for the name of the wicketkeeper, as I clarified.
  • 02:33:55: A7: Wellofcourse, that was Tariq Iqbal, the rotund WK who "caught Lara in his nether regions". Not Tariq someone :-)
  • 02:34:15: Points to @ayonava, @veekay80 and @sushovande for Q7.
  • 02:35:59: Q8: Continuing on enduring images for infamous reasons - Identify the person whose face is blocked out: http://i.imgur.com/MUJ5n.jpg

  • 02:45:00: Please give me the name of the ground / place as well.
  • 02:46:15: A10: Right, that is the pavilion of the Nevill Ground at Tunbridge Wells, where Kapil Dev hit that storming 175 against Zim.
  • 02:47:10: Points to @veekay80, @cornerd and @amitjoshmachine. @degree_kaapi got the man right, but didn't name the ground :-)
  • 02:47:53: That brings us to the end of this impromptu kweezzz on World Cup stills. Scores in a minute.
  • 02:50:18: So that quiz was absolutely #pwNed by @degree_kaapi with 28 points followed by @rudrajitdatta and @veekay80. Wellplayed sirs.

  • 12:47:12: I want the full name of the politician peeps. No family names.
  • 12:50:29: The answer is Edward "Ted" Kennedy . @amit_das, @chota_bhim and @balajeege get points.

  • 12:56:25: A lot of you are getting just one name right. Just one correct answer so far.
  • 12:58:14: Harvey Metcalfe it is. Neil Harvey, Harry MET Sally and a calf were the 3 photos. @nitinsunny, @adityabhat and @snidekick get points.
  • 12:59:33: Harvey Metcalfe, the antagonist in Archer's debut novel, "Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less" indeed. Moving on now. QMs' favorite Q up next
  • 13:01:11: That was @adityatbhat there, my bad, getting the answer right second. Well done.
  • 13:02:42: Q3: Archer’s latest short story collection, “And Thereby Hangs A Tale”, derives its title from a classic written by a master. Identify both.
  • 13:05:25: Many of you are getting the writer correct here. But the classic is wrong.

  • 13:10:51: Q4: Based on which novel by another master did Archer base his “Prisoner of Birth” on?

  • 13:23:32: Closing in a minute. Got 2 right answers only.
  • 13:25:39: Okay closing. @nitinsunny and @adityatbhat get it right. It is Dollar Bill from Honor Among Thieves.
  • 13:27:05: First photo was a dollar. The second was ya MTNL bill :D and the third was the decl of Independence of USA playing a vital role in HAT.
  • 13:28:30: RT @adityatbhat: @kweezzz It was a #meta clue since the first photo itself was a Dollar Bill. :)
  • 13:29:00: Q6: Who says these words to whom, where in which novel: “I will still kill you!”

  • 13:37:13: Closing in a minute here people.
  • 13:39:14: Another Clue - Not to commit murder. But to finish him off in other ways.
  • 13:41:53: Right. @nitinsunny was the one who came tantalizingly close. Nat says it to Ralph on air in Sons Of Fortune.
  • 13:42:17: RT @yamsivam: I missed getting rt from @kweezzz because there was no space between RT & @yamsivam. real estate is picking up again
  • 13:43:02: Q7: Connect the photos with the characters and the novel

  • 13:45:29: Right. I want the real life characters. Quite a few have got it right here.
  • 13:47:35: Right. It is Rupert Murdoch, on whose life Fourth Estate was loosely based on. @nitinsunny, @balajeege and @snidekick get it right.
  • 13:48:43: Te photo of Robert Maxwell was lost in translation :D But a special mention to @balajeege who mentioned Maxwell too. Well done man!
  • 13:50:22: Yes. But I gave only one photo. The other was lost. RT @adityatbhat @kweezzz Did you not want both the characters? Anyway #QM is God.
  • 13:52:03: Q8: Who was given custody of Florentyna immediately on Abel Rosenowski seperating from his wife in Kane and Abel?

  • 14:06:17: It was remade in Tamil as Poi Solla Porom and by the looks of it, in Marathi too, as Checkmate.
  • 14:06:43: Right. Final Q now.
  • 14:07:15: A sitter really. Connect the photo and the novel: http://i.imgur.com/bny25.jpg

  • 14:11:53: Hahaha... Touche. RT@snidekick then It is not A sitter, is it?
  • 14:12:42: Right. Closing in a minute. Two have got it right.
