That middle one was actually no1? didn't see that one.

 

[TomPNE94]

[Hooray]

Someone reignite this thread please

Ok then, how about this? http://www.sporcle.com/games/Spacemaniac/progressively-harder-european-outlines-slideshow

I know my score doesn't count, but I got 46/47. Got about 30 first time through, then had some educated guesses based on what countries I had left.

 

[Gilly?]

Mine won't count, but I got 38. Was never getting some of the early ones.

Got 18. Would have been 19 but spelt one wrong. Missed 9 that I had heard of.

 

[Hooray]

Got 35 on the wrestling champions. Missed a couple I should have remembered from years ago. Only forgot one from 1998 onwards:

Mine on the Wrestling one

Kinda worrying/impressive

Not sure how many of you would be interested in the Wrestling one, so how about http://www.sporcle.com/games/googlebird/faces_time_magazine_1970s? I got 31/45 on my attempt.

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

40 on European country outlines (Europe's a strange mix of really identifiable shapes and miscellaneous blobs, isn't it)?
5 on wrestlers (not sure why I bothered attempting this)
27 was my (rather underwhelming) score on Time faces

 

[Veggie Legs]

I only got about ten on the Time faces and then gave up, found it really hard.

 

[Cardsfan]

Gave this a go - http://www.sporcle.com/games/JakePFC/footballclubs

Pretty disappointed that I missed two Football League teams -

Spoiler

Rotherham and Exeter City

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

137 on that, forgot some silly ones

 

[TomPNE94]

got all the FL but struggled on the non leagues

That's a good one. I've paused and will complete after I finish work.

Odd how you can stare at a team name from only 5 or 6 years ago and yet only bring 1 player to mind...

 

[Stringy]

I was speed quizzing last night and one of the rounds was capital cities of Europe. I felt like the fucking Beast from The Chase beeping in and answering every question the whole round. I was insane. Cheers Sporcle.

 

[Stagat]

There were three more that I tried to put in but had forgotten how to spell.

Spoiler: these

Bjornebye, Zhirkov, Szczesny

Tbh though, there were loads I wouldn't have got even if you'd given me until next year to think (I'd have got bored well before then).

 

[Veggie Legs]

I got 26/28 on the teams who didn't make it to the Premier League.

Spoiler: Missed

Crewe and Stockport

Not even going to try the latest one, I know I'll be terrible at it.

 

[Hooray]

I got 150 on the line-ups one.

What I found funny was

Spoiler

I could remember the Forest back four of Lyttle, Cooper, Chettle and Pearce from 1995, but completely forgot Man Utd had a defence including Rio, Vidic and Evra a couple of years ago

I shamefully struggled with that Forest team despite remembering the era well; with me family being Forest fans, I was very well aware of all the players. Struggled with Portsmouth and Tottenham too. Filled the 1995 Man Utd side though.

Spoiler

Got Bryan Roy by accident when I went to type Roy Keane Completely forgot about Bergkamp for the Arsenal teams however, was my most shocking miss of that round.

 

[Alty]

146. Missed some stinkers. Surprisingly tough.
