Crazywalrus Quiz

[crazywalrus]

Rules from last time -

I will give clues of a particular fish (or more) three times a day at 8am, midday and 6pm.

Members PM their answer to me.

I will update this thread with the number of correct and total answers.

I will PM back the correct 'answerers'.

If you are incorrect you can have another guess three hours after the time the PM was sent.

You can enter no more than once per 3 hours to a maximum of 3 times per day.

After I have 6 correct answers I will notify in the thread and introduce a different fish (or other).

Only the 6 that guessed the first fish will be eligible to guess that fish (or other).

The process will continue, reducing the number of eligible entrants by 2 each time.

No Latin or Greek Answers. No Elops (sorry Steve) .

The winner of the final will be sent a small prize depending on the type of fishing they do or a $20 BCF voucher or whatever I can organize. The big prize will of course be bragging rights.
