The guidebook page just hangs when I search for guides - the routes work okay though.

What is the most northerly Hard Rock route?

Astonishingly I cannot find this in the drop down list. Am I a numpty?

In reply to ianstevens:

Sorry, should be fixed now.

In reply to ianstevens:

The opposite for me, the guidebook page works, but the routes aren't dropping down.

In reply to Sam Ash:

fixed again. seems fixing one broke the other. both should now work!

The route drop down section isn't working for me (on Chrome, on android phone).

Looking forward to doing the quiz once it is - looks good! Thanks UKC.

In reply to Lhod:

To use it, start typing in what you think the answer is. It should show suggested climbs.

Have you done this and it’s still not suggesting routes?

 lithos 03 Apr 2020

im sure i got 2 more right than credited with ( q40 , q17, ) wonder what i did there im sure i have the answers - maybe i left them blank ?

stupidly got 25 wrong  doh

In reply to lithos:

I was pretty sure I had 40 right too.

 Martin Wing 03 Apr 2020

There were a couple of guidebooks I got right too which came up as wrong.
40 was one of them

 Lhod 04 Apr 2020
In reply to Andy Ovens - UKC and UKH:

Thanks, yes I've done that and it's not worked, i.e. I've typed the climb but no suggestions come up (I'm also confident that these climbs exist!!).

In reply to Martin Wing:

I had the same issue.

 Lhod 04 Apr 2020
In reply to Lhod:

Don't worry it's working now.

 lithos 04 Apr 2020
In reply to Paul at work:

i defo know all the guidebooks, it only marked 40 as wrong so maybe i entered it wrong, of course i cant check what it has for my entry (doesn't give a summary check page before submitting or email you) but it's only  a quiz not the end of the world

 Neston Climber 04 Apr 2020
In reply to UKC/UKH Articles:

Is this an "open book" quiz - still blomming hard even with Google help!

 lithos 04 Apr 2020
In reply to Neston Climber:

yes I took it as open book, the xmas ones etc are specified as not so.

I think this is to use up some time

 Etta 06 Apr 2020
In reply to lithos:

I am confident I gave the right answer too, but 40 marked as wrong...

 Paul Sagar 06 Apr 2020
