QUIZ—Seeing Red [ENDED]
Note: I find it remarkable how quickly some of these difficult images have been identified.
That is almost unbelievable for me too!
There are definitely some tough ones in the mix.

Interest was expressed in seeing the current standings, so I’ve posted the standings for the end of Day 2.
You’ll find the End-of-Day-2 Standings under the Results List (where all 58 games will eventually be posted) near the beginning of this thread.
Day 3 of the quiz has officially ended. I’ve posted the results from Days 1, 2 and 3 immediately below the quiz images. Have a look.
Day 4 now begins—please PM me with 3 guesses anytime between now and 4:00 PM forum time on Wednesday, December 16th.
Note: I’ll have an update for the End-of-Day-Three stats as soon as I do the math. So sometime within the next few hours.
Mystery image 21, worth 10 points, is the only image with extra points that hasn’t been correctly identified. Yet.
EDIT The End-of-Day-Three Standings have been updated.
Eek! I was putting my shoes on when I realized that I had 4 minutes to post this round’s answers. I made it just under the wire.

Yes you did just squeak by. I was starting to worry that you’d been caught in traffic on the Turnpike or something. Glad you’re okay.
I’m tallying Day 4’s answers now and will post them soon.
It’s a tie!

I’ve just posted the Day 4 Results and the End-of-Day-4 Standings.
We have now entered Day 5 of the Quiz—the FINAL DAY.
Two participants are tied for first place, while three others are close behind them.
Four games have not yet been identified—three of these are worth 5 points each. 1 is worth 10 points.
Drumroll….It’s not too late for anyone who wants to identify 3 of these last 4 games to get involved. Please send me your final 3 guesses. The quiz will end and the winners will be announced 24 hours from now, at about 4:00 PM Forum Time on Thursday, December 17th.
It’s time to start seeing red. Seriously.
Becky, I won’t have much time later, so Robin, Rose, Ginger, Ruby, Carmen, and Scarlet thank you now for your lovely quiz. I did participate in silence, although that may not be immediately obvious from my score.

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka
Congratulations, Chrissie, and kudos for getting Treasure Hunter, which was driving me mad!
Hehe, same here.
The worst part of it is that it looked familiar, so I knew I had seen it before (probably during the AAGC).
And I can focus on the CPTs again. I’m almost falling behind now…
