The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
Yes, funnily enough I got the "well-respected member of the Downs" one too. I suspect it's because the answers that lead to this one are those which most "normal" Downers would give (and even if not, they represent the qualities that we all think we like to have [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ). Perhaps burra was thinking along these lines when he suggested that it needed further work.

I tried the same as Squatter and came up with the Troll and also a Newbie-hating Books purist. Couldn't discover the fourth type, though.

Well done, Diamond. Excellent Quiz (and I like the descriptions of the types - where did pitsar as a name for a troller come from, I wonder? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ). Seems to me to be a much better idea than having actual members as the answers (which risks causing offence - either to those used or to those not used).

Can anyone come up with any more Downs stereotypes, I wonder ... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
