Yay, only two
Just one question, were we allowed to check the site for the answers or not? If not, how can somebody guess right the number of expansion pack downloads? Or these was some scale for the right answer?
i was hoping people wouldn't check
there was a margin for error

Of course, i know about him from the recent discussions but i somehow though he will not count for the right answer. My bad...

I got 4 right out of pure luck.
Knew the cafe pedro question.
Guessed the site started i 2006 as crue true, have been user since then. Then estomated the man game must have started a litle after hence guessed 2007.
Then randomly chosed the number 15 and guessed there was as many admins, horribly wrong. And 15.000 downloads, where only the 2000 margin saved me as i really was far of.
So i got 3 of my points this round just because i'm a lucky bastard.

I have`t checked the site to get the 5 points.
That I knew the ~13000 was due to some random luck as I was just in this section a few days before and saw this and back then thought: Wow, that`s quite a lot people playing PCM and also know about the DB community.
The other questions haven`t been that hard.
I have no doubts about you, as you are administrator and anything else than 5/5 would be fail
But i wonder how some of the members who are not for example part of the man-game or never comment there, know how long it is running. I am following the man-game closely and also before i joined the site and still dont get it right
Edit: Just for info, who are the seven administrators?I know about six only.
I lurked ariound this site a lot of times. I love to look back to the first of everything, I have done it many times before. For the expansion pack I guessd. (my answer was 15,000 ) I was confused bevcause I remembered seeing 24,000 for the 2012 DB and got kinda choked up about it but I came out on top. And I didn't have 3 perfect rounds anyway (7/10 in the first ). No cheating for me at least
Unless EPO is cheating.
I promise I'll throw a couple of answers this next round, okay?

What's the margin for Q2? And 'corporate sponsors', what do you mean by that? Companies who sponsored the Olympics?
I'm glad I followed the Olympics closely (sometimes on the laptop while I was working ). I should at least get more than 5/10

And it can only get worse. I don't exactly have a great knowledge for films.
P.S. Where did that category come from?
