Help with stupidly hard quiz

709 replies

ApocalypseNowt · 01/12/2020 11:29

Each year my work does a stupidly hard quiz. There are many stages and we get a month to try and do it.

Anyone help me with this stage? there are 21 pictures of celebrities and I've managed to work out who they all are but now I'm stuck on working out the password to the next stage. Each picture has a coloured Roman numeral in it so I assume I have to use those to work out the answer...

I think they're going to be a mixture of films. The first one has at least Inside Out, and Maudie (?) I think.

HeyMicky · 01/12/2020 14:00

The film description are trying too hard to be clever. "A Quiet Plaice" for example, or "Toys Tory"

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 01/12/2020 14:01

I might be making it too difficult, I'll have look at a few more!

The wordplay for the first one seems lead to inside Gout.

Maybe they’ve all for a spare letter and those make the password.

PurpleDaisies · 01/12/2020 14:04

Yes!!!

Winter Stella

Extra W (maybe also R)

IsThisNameTaken · 01/12/2020 14:05

I think this is like one of the rounds from House of Games where you change / add a letter to a title to fit the description?
Eg. first one the film is Inside Out, the 'inflammatory arthritis' is gout and so the answer is 'Inside Gout'?

HeyMicky · 01/12/2020 14:05

Ah I think theyre all puns - maybe change one letter?

A Quiet Plaice, Empire Strikes Black, Inside Gout, Interstellar, Diet Hard

Yes. Although I think they give a clue rather than a word.

If the quizzes are this bloody hard, how hard is the actual work?
Or perhaps they don't want you to DO any work? Grin

abcyz · 01/12/2020 15:18

Do you need to enter all the answers to move onto the next phase? Or is it a short word or phrase?

SoupDragon · 01/12/2020 15:33

So what kind of company is this?
Generally, not specific name.

TimeIhadaNameChange · 01/12/2020 16:05

It's this the company that did a similar quiz during lockdown?
