Oh I didn't see this sorry,
I make that 9 out of twelve but if you can give me the reason to suggest 7 and 8 are correct then it will be 11 out of 12 and seeing the lack of interest in the question enough for the point.Comment

I think I've might have the right answer for the other question I had wrong.
4) What is the Shortest Period of time without one in the last twenty years?
(according to the data I've found John Higgins An dStephen Maguire both made a 147 on March 24th 2000.)
so that would be 0 days“There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something. You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.” - J.R.R. Tolkien

Well 3 is the CrucibleYou play a long slow deadweight red to a corner pocket. As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman
