Actually, Tybby is right. The Colossus at Rhodes is, in fact, a bronze statue of the god Helios, and thus I think that Tybaltus should get the points. Sorry Ned... :(

Has the first page been updated? Are scores correct? Was that worth 1k? Are there any music questions left?

@Ysh....cool links :D
I had to rumage through my old notes of 11th grade-saw the timeline with Cahres and then I saw bronze statue of Helios. I neglected to read further-I had in parenthesis the Colossus of Rhodes. Damn. My bad.

Thanks for the support Kam. Its all up to BS.

@BS-yes I answered the bronze statue of Helios right before you said it was a bronze structure.

Well Tyb said the statue of Helios before Ned said Colossus, and they are both right, it's up to you whether you think Ned was righter :D EDIT - After all, you did give Ysh that beer question :rolleyes:

Strike that....

Technically, ty was right, however, due to google like actions, must be disqualified from the points. No Googling :mad: :p :D

Ned's up....and the board is correct Ned, as soon as I add you points anyway :D

I didnt google! I used notes. Its not like I just typed stuff in. ARGH! Ah well. Its up to BS, non the less. You said no search engines, not no outer support!

Hmm, I'd still say give Tyb the points - Ned has yielded, and all you ever said was no googling, BS...that's very specific :p I could have been using AltaVista all this time for all you know (but I wasn't... :D )
