Good man ol' Pet for noticing it.Thank you for this report. I played a private tournament myself for testing purposes and received a different but equally unlikely pattern (six 1s followed by four 3s).
We have recently changed server hardware, so there may be an unwanted interaction between the randomizer implementation and the new server. The webmaster will look into it as soon as possible.

You're playing the Talkforum Daily Quiz and you notice that all the answers are always in the same position on the board. Do you:
1. Play the quiz and wow your mates with your amazing times!!!
2. Take a vow of abstinence and refuse to participate in the quiz until this whole sorry mess is resolved.
3. Send an aggressive email to the Editor and demand that they create a level playing field in this 'ere bailiwick.
4. Contact the quiz admin and call him a big spastic for not noticing it sooner.

Seems it's more random(ish). 2, 4, 4, 4, 1, 1, 3, 1, 2, 2.
Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

Yep, further reply:
Thanks so much for the error report. Indeed, our new hardware appears to have caused this issue. I think I have just fixed it. Please give the game a go and let me know if it all looks ok now!
Regards
Terry

Re: Talkforum Daily Quiz - Part 2
After I finished the quiz on 1st Aug(maybe, not 100% sure of the date) I went back and saw that all the correct answers were 1's. I'd got one wrong (a 2) and I saw the correct answer was a 1. For the next few days when I remembered I clicked back and didn't see anything as blatant, although a couple of times there were 3 or 4 answers in a row with the same number.
I really am a biatch
