Erm....Shuv... do you want to know the answer to the now-inexplicably-closed "Missing Link" poser or what?

And, for the record, don't start victimizing me just cause some young pretender johnny-come-lately has the same letters in his name as me. That's no fault of mine!!

You don't seem to want to answer the email adresses thing, Gary Martin...

Well, that's not really a problem, you know...

If you want to post under 2 different identities, so be it...

If it's not Primal Scream, I'll be amazed, but go on give me the answer "Trivia Master":lol:

Well, did you say Primal Scream or did you THINK you said Primal Scream? No, I'm not trying to come up with another answer - so why don't you all click straight to my latest (VERY SMALL) Thread, entitled: Missing Link - The Answer and find out who got it right first! Go! Go! Go!!!

I did not find this thread!! Have you posted it yet or is yet another red herring? Confused :confused: (?)

Well, Sophisiticated, I took the trouble to type it all out and send it, and you'll find that when you click on it, the thread is EMPTY!! The same with Allen Jarvis's THIS WEEKS TEASER - ditto! Perhaps the webmaster has decided to lock all threads with the words Missing Link or Teaser in it? I don't Know...

Okay! Seeing as my Missing Link-The Answer has also inexplicably died a stillborn death :cry: I'll just have to reveal the answer to everybody here then.

The first three people to get the answer were- in order Sophisticated (Lady) Gary Ritman (no, he bears NO relation to me, despite having a similar email address) Shug - though you may have said that after reading the answer elsewhere.

The correct Missing Link indeed was PRIMAL SCREAM

Primal Scream did a cover of Lemmy's old classic MOTORHEAD on the Scream's album VANISHING POINT, which shares a title of a New Order track from Technique. BERNARD SUMNER guested on the last Primals album XTRMNTR, and then BOBBY GILLESPIE returned the favour on Get Ready. Thus we get: MOTORHEAD - PRIMAL SCREAM (Bobby Gillespie) - BERNARD SUMNER (New Order) Okay? Satisfied? Can't believe the trouble that one caused.

So, Sophisticated Lady - You got the right answer first! :clap:

Whilst I'm on this thread, I will now reveal the QUESTION to this backwards teaser: Question: What is the only Factory catalogue number ending in "3" that was NOT allocated to an official New Order single/album, and what inexplicable title was this given instead? Answer: Fac 113 - ALEPH

Right! I hope that sorts that out once and for all. Now may I take this opportunity to make an announcement to declare that as from now I will not set ANY MORE trivia teasers or brain benders or any other quizzy thingies of the sort, simply because of the amount of hassle I've been getting from them....and anyway, Seb doesn't like them anymore. All this aggro is becoming too much for me to take!

So - No more teasers from me. :finger: EVER! That's it! FINITO! KAPUT! If you want teasers, set your own - I'll have nothing more to do with them - I've got my spliffs :smoking: , you can keep your teasers...that way we'll all be happy. Does that sound reasonable? Like they all say here in the 'Dam: "De tijd is nu!!" -so let's move forward, and stop dwelling on the past!

Life must go on.... Tot ziens!!

Yay!! :D

Gary Ritman (no, he bears NO relation to me, despite having a similar email address)

ummm still too many similarities to be "just" a coincidence. But if it's not you maybe he's your long lost twin brother or an evil impostor or a result of too many spliffs or..... ;) (I won't bring this subject up to discussion again, promise!)

No wonder I didn't know that one! Don't you think Gary deserves some acknowledgement for solving that one? As I remember it he was really close?

No aggro from me at least! :) Ehr... not intended as aggro anyway - maybe I was frustrated because your quizzes are *really* *difficult* (sometimes)
