I was just being humorous. Were points actually allocated??

If you go back to the first page it seems they were - depending on how many guesses it took to get the right answer

Or maybe someone is watching us and making notes...........

I am not sure what you mean here. Is it there are express services on the line, but they don't stop at this station, or there are no express services on this line ?
