Well, I found a few web sites regarding clue number 2. I found Grid References and even some Yahoo driving directions (just for kicks). I could not determine the URL of clue number 3.

The answer to number 1 was contained in the clue, but could be found easily without the extra lateral thinking.

Well, I just sent my final stopping point to Ian in a PM. I got a few more things for clue #2; but couldn't get to clue #3.

Oh god it is goinmg to end up a decision based on who got the furthest, THEN if more than one is at the same stage I will have to base it on something like their "participation level"!

You guys are SO going to kick yourselves when I tell you the answer, Kevin if you have got PAST clue number two then that must mean you are on three ?, if not you are obviously still on one.

HE HE HE !.

Well out of 400 visitors to the quiz post a few do something then tell me that they didnt want it anyway, so why bother entering one has to wonder you could have spoilt it for someone who really wanted it (not that anybody did)?.

I thought this was a fan site and it would seem that you can't even give Vanessa mae stuff away.

What's the point ?.

I wil let it expire, bye.

Don't be disappointed Ian!! Your game was simply too difficult.

I made a 'test your knowledge of Vanessa-Mae' quizz about 6 months ago. All the answer could be found in the cd booklets, on the internet, in this forum, in video files and so on. In the end, only four persons paritcipated. I had a nice price too for the winner being a large sized glossy reprint of the photo that I use as avatar.

Apparently, I had too much questions and it was too dififcult. The list of questions and the answers are still somewhere in this forum.

Yea I remember that quiz. I was gonna do it, then i saw how many questions there were, and knew I couldn't devote the time to answering them so I didn't even enter

i remember Rijkos quiz as well, if i had time to sit down and look for the answers i would of, but unfortunatelly, that was a time issue, this quiz of ians was a brain issue.
laterally thinking isnt my game. ive neva been good at quiz's or cryptic stuff.
give me a nice program to write, or a web page to make, and i can do it easilly, give me a cryptic clue, and im no good.
good luck to whoeva does get the name though, if anyone is still in

Where can I find this Quizz from Rijko again? Any Hotlink?

Xanthippe · Post by **Xanthippe** » Sat Jan 18, 2003 10:29 am

amQhr,

The list of questions is in the first link and the answers in the second.

http://www.vanessamae.org/cgi-bin....18;st=0

http://www.vanessamae.org/cgi-bin....=1;t=31

I realized back then that the list of questions might be too long to stimulate participation, but I decided to go ahead with this list inorder to cover all parts of her live and career.

Anyway, this list can still serve as reference for those who want to find out how much they actually know about our girl, Vanessa-Mae.

Thank you Rijko, I'll train to get some licence to Qin Chen Mae.

Your quiz was not TOO hard but there certainely was a lot of questions, to many i think.

Mine only had THREE !

I am frankly amazed nobody got it so I will probably publish ther answers in a bit and let some of you kick yourselves.
