Okay.
The YouTube part is correct.
But.
What happened that morning to it's website?

907DAVE Mon, March 29th, 2010 12:34 AM

It broke down for a few hours.........and got blamed on China somehow?

88Racing Mon, March 29th, 2010 08:51 AM

That's a good guess but no the website still worked.

majek5 Mon, March 29th, 2010 05:08 PM

merged with facebook?

88Racing Mon, March 29th, 2010 11:41 PM

If I give anymore clues I'm going to give the answer away.

Key words.
Routine.
House.
PM(not the forum type).

88Racing Tue, March 30th, 2010 11:49 AM

Anyone?:shrug:

cleatus12r Tue, March 30th, 2010 12:29 PM

I think you stumped us, Lars.

907DAVE Tue, March 30th, 2010 12:41 PM

White house press meeting broadcast on youtube?

88Racing Tue, March 30th, 2010 12:47 PM

If no one gets it by tomorrow night I'll post the answer along with the new question and the cash will increase to $400.

fifity Tue, March 30th, 2010 07:36 PM

Im stumped, its either the 12 hr of sebring or this:
YouTube - LeMieux: If Medicaid is Good Enough for 51 Million Americans, It Should Be Good Enough for Congress

907DAVE Wed, March 31st, 2010 02:16 AM

Dang.........that question is a tough one.

It is surprising how much stuff happened on youtube that morning!

88Racing Wed, March 31st, 2010 11:38 PM

Drum roll please!

The answer is YouTube was doing maintenance on it's main page for 4 hours.

This made it tough to access but by using links and search engines you could get in the back door way.

Being the nice guy I am 907dave gets $100 for partial credit!

88Racing Wed, March 31st, 2010 11:47 PM

New question.

3 parts.

Pop music videos.

Lady Gaga

"Bad Romance" video.

What are they drinking?

cleatus12r Wed, March 31st, 2010 11:52 PM

Nemiroff LEX made in the Ukraine (based in the town of Nemyriv in Vinnytska oblast).

Thanks Wikipedia!

cleatus12r Wed, March 31st, 2010 11:53 PM

By the way, who listens to that garbage?

If I was a person who stuttered, I'd call it GA-GA-Garbage.

cleatus12r Thu, April 1st, 2010 12:05 AM

Different Flavors of Nemiroff include LEX, Premium, Premium Currant, Light, Honey Pepper, Rye Honey, Cranberry, Original, Birch Special, Nemyrovskaya, Nemyrovskaya Osobaya, Ukrainian Wheat, and Citron.

So, we have a BRAND (Nemiroff), TYPE (LEX), and WHERE (Ukraine).

What else do you need? :cool:

88Racing Thu, April 1st, 2010 12:16 AM

Type=Vodka!
I'm getting a headache!:doh:
I'll give it to you.

Congrats Cleatus12r $600 for your gameroom cash fund!:)

cleatus12r Thu, April 1st, 2010 12:23 AM

I feel like Rick James!!!

Now I can afford some Nemiroff!!

Thanks! Sorry, I guess I didn't think of "vodka". I don't drink potato liquor though so the thought never crossed my mind.

88Racing Wed, April 14th, 2010 11:37 PM

This weeks questions are»
In what year was "Mike's Hard Lemonade" founded?
Where is it brewed at today?
The first person to get both questions right in one post w/o editing and win $500 gameroom cash.
But........
If someone guesses and gets it wrong then each question is worth $200 on its own.

Same rules apply as last week.

Let's play!:)

ChuckD Wed, April 14th, 2010 11:50 PM

1999 seattle

cleatus12r Thu, April 15th, 2010 12:06 AM

This is just an aside.....

Mike's Hard ________ (insert flavor of choice) is the ONLY brew my palate can tolerate. The Pomegranate Limeade is the bomb.

88Racing Thu, April 15th, 2010 12:07 AM

Well Chuck wins $200!

Let's play!:)

Power Hungry Thu, April 22nd, 2010 12:15 AM

907DAVE Thu, April 22nd, 2010 02:52 AM

Sheep, and they got lost because.........“They just put their heads down

Congrats!:)
Eric!!!!!!!
You won $2000 in gameroom cash!

BTW
I'm making a mental note of not to ask any trivia on where I was born and raised part of my life. That's across the border in Beloit.
Just thought I'd let you know. :)

Cool, the Rochester question was the big guess for me...


Well, as for knowledge of Beloit, I'm actually born/raised up around the twin cities/wisconsin border, so I know almost nothing about Rockford and Beloit (I'm a transplant...)

Thanks for the fun trivia!
Eric

Duskrider Fri, April 30th, 2010 11:46 AM

I would've said Rochester was known for driving Jack Benny around. :)

88Racing Fri, April 30th, 2010 12:44 PM

Thanx for playing this week.

88Racing Wed, May 5th, 2010 11:31 PM

Boss lady put a cap on how much I can award as prize money.
So.......
$1000 is the top I can go.
Another new rule.
If you have won within the last 30 days then let others have a chance.
Thanx!:)
