Competition!

[AB Editor]

This week the AnswerBank have teamed up with Octopus Publishing and we have 5 copies of their latest book to give away!
The Top 10 for Men is the perfect gift for any general knowledge buff, featuring 250 lists on all subjects, ranging from fast cars to beer brands...

For your chance to win your very own copy of "Top 10 for Men". All you have to do is email us with the answers to the following questions �

1. What is the most common phobia in the UK?
2. What is the top confectionary brand in the UK?
3.  The last person to ever be beheaded in Britain was carried out in which year?

We still have 3 books to give away, so we decided to extend the competition to 10 June 2008. 
Winners will be selected at random and contacted via email.

Good Luck!

AB ED's grasp of the English languange and his/her mastery of the rules of grammar pales into insignificance against our other concerns regarding the future of this site.

[THECORBYLOON]

It's just another example of how the place has gone to the dogs. It typifies the slapdash approach and lack of concern for standards.

[gen2]

That's true CORBY

[fordward]

come on now ,on the hole theres nothing wrong with the sit e, just a few little nigles. we cant all be perfect, just look at my spelling and gramer....shoking!!!!

[Aquagility]

Surely we are not going to niggle about the grammar if we can just get the site working properly?

[weecalf]

Wheres Random ??

[hetherington]

my question is, If AB Editor usually ignores us will he actually take notice of the e-mails sent containing the ANSWERS?!!!!!!!!!

[sarumite]

I feel that gen2 has raised a number of real problems that we have recently experienced on this site, in a succinct and reasoned manner.

I have little doubt that the majority of Answerback members are fully in agreement with his posting, and out of common courtesy it should be expected that the AB Editor will reply in due course.

Whilst it is always easy to pick fault with the correct form of English grammar, and I agree the above post leaves much to be desired, these comments tend only to dilute the main concern of our grievances. (S)

As you must already be aware AB ED, on this site we really enjoy congratulating winners, so I assume their names will be pubished. Then we can all join them in their good fortune. Unfortunately, I will not be entering ,since I will be far too busy cleaning out the shed, as it's that time of year again.

[THECORBYLOON]

I was one of the winners in the last comp but I'll not bother wi this one.

AB Ed,
would like to add my name to the list as having lots of concerns and problems with AB. I am seriously considering not using this site anymore, a lot of the people that were on here when I came on are no longer around. All got fed up with the nit-picking, nasty comments, "site police", etc, etc. I could go on for ages bu won't.

I look forward to your response, but won't hold my breath waiting!

[gleno1]

I agree with you too gen 2 the site has been so slow lately its so infuriating -especially when time is short
