My answers are in :) I don't care what score I get, whether its the bottom score or the top score. What do you all do to keep track of your answers? I get out my word documents, put 1. and 1's answer and so on. Then I simply copy and paste it and paste it into a PM ;)

It depends on if there's a lot of photos or not, if there is then I just open another window and answer the Q's in that then go back to the other window to see the next Q but today there's only one non-text Q so I just copied and pasted the Q's into a PM and answered them one by one, deleteing the Q's as I went

There aren't any rules as such, it usually gets posted sometime on a Friday, and we usually finish at 9Pm on a Sunday.

If you're not about at that time on a Sunday just put when you want answers in for so people know when to get answers in for.
