It was the h2g2 sports day, and some of the Italics had entered the egg and spoon race. Can you tell me in which position those entered came?
Work out the position first to fifth by using the statements below.
Abi crossed the finish line after Mina and Ashley.
Ashley crossed the finish line in an odd position. (Not that sort of position!!! Me means 1st, 3rd or 5th)
Mina did not finish first.
Jim Lynn crosse the finish line 2 places in front of Ashley.
Jimster crossed the line if fourth place.

I'd forgotten how tense it gets when Greebo posts the answer to the previous days question...

It's nowhere near as tense as when you're trying to type in your answer faster than everyone else, and end up with:
1) Jom Ltnn
2) Main
3) Ashelw
4) Jumper
5) Abo
I'd have beaten you if that was at all legible.

As a newbie to the H2IQ I'd no idea of the tension generated

Danny should know - he's been cheated out of his 20 points on more than one occasion 
(Just don't ask him about his handbag)

Hrumph! I wouldn't say 'cheated'

Danny B Posted Aug 28, 2002
Now, now. No fighting over me, or I shall have to wade in with the handbag... and you don't want that

Sorry Kelli - I meant in a more allegorical 'robbed' sense. Not _actually_ cheated.
To be honest, if anyone thinks about cheating on h2iq, they need a better quality of lifestyle.
