10. Who am I?
Born in Badow in 1800 I was a cobbler by trade however one of my first jobs was at Newgate Prison flogging juvenille offenders for 10 shillings a week. On 14 February 1829 I was appointed to the position for which I am known. I was the last man in my position to perform his duties in public in 1868 following a change in Brittish laws. I fulfilled my official duties approximately 450 times and 35 of those times involved women. I finished my career on 25th May 1874.

Don't forget that Slippery when Buttered gets a 1hr advantage...

Easty, if you can't get these with relative ease, I will be disappoint.

Need one of the remaining two teams to get back to me....

Easty's been in a foreign country all this week. Are we one of the remaining teams?

We are I'm afraid

I really hope that Abel up there sent the part 2, to Romeo as well as I.

Otherwise, I've been working alone which is NOT what I expected, Ro.

It slipped my mind.

Anyway, you fucked up on the third one so I sent a revised answer.

But I got all the other shit correct.

Why must we argue?

Cause losers always need someone to blame...

Are you almost done?

Both teams have answered everything correctly up to the very last puzzle.

wait, did i get it wrong? I sent it off and got no reply, I assumed I got it right.

Leon, they can't all get along like Slippery When Buttered...

And this is done..... finally.

Winner for this challenge Slippery When Buttered. Failing to finish and now eliminated from the race are The KoolAid Grenades

Reward for 1st place will be to nominate 1 team of the remaining two (PX/Easty & Sleg/Gray) to complete an extra puzzle as part of the next round.

Wait wait.

Romeo said he sent a revised answer, after he found out I was wrong.

If we got eliminated, this means his revised answer was wrong as well.

Why wasn't I told of this?

Maybe you were out by then?

Ro sent about half a dozen more answers that were all incorrect. I figured your teammate would advise you that an answer was still pending, but aside from that the last thing i sent to you was still the correct info... ie you were still wrong on the last question.

So... uh... Round 4?
