Leeds Saint Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Is that the highest individual mark over the week? Fair enough, but what if that's the same? Possibly do it on count back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but what if that's the same? Possibly do it on count back? I was thinking if it's the same then we could do it on the lowest score throughout the week would finish below. We could revert back a week but it seems a bit unfair cos they don't do that in the real league. Tbh, with the "highest / lowest score during the week" rule (21b, subsection iii) ... we'd have a clear 2nd place and clear loser.... Or am I overcomplicating things? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckthearab Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Sounds fair to me without looking at the table. Might change my min once I see it [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Very noble of you eck, since the rule change would mean that you missed out on 2nd place. I shouldn't really change the rules mid-league, so all changes will be made as of next week. And in the spirit of fairness, we'll not have any blackstars this week (well done Motherwell / Gman!)...Anyway, congrats to Leeds Saint who picks up his first ever Gold Star, and to WRK and Eck who get another silver star for their collection!

eckthearab Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Silver!! Ma favourite colour it would seem [emoji20] seeing as rule changes start next week will mean I'll never see another especially as I appear doomed in my quest for gold lol.

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 It's cup weekend (which I believe every weekend is now!). ... 9 teams left in it ... here's a reminder of the draw.. easy23 vs WhiteRoseKillie Jagfox99 vs Dayman The_Kincardine vs Cardinal Richelieu Edmund vs Alang1993 vs SlipperyP This quiz was very kindly posted by Jacksgranda so all thanks (and any criticisms!) to him! It's a monster 20 questions.... and in a bid to rid ourselves of all the foreigners creeping into the Scottish game, every question is on Scotland! Please PM me your results (I'll send mine to Jacksgranda once I've done it) before Monday lunchtime. If you're already out the cup, feel free to post yer score but no spoilers! (Or rather, if you want to add a spoiler, use the spoiler function... this sentence makes no sense).

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Even the spoiler function doesn't work on the app.I did this quiz the other day... Can't remember how many I got though! Had a quick look at question one and can see I've already forgotten the answers again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eckthearab Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Quite enjoyed that. A mighty 16. Pity I'm out of the cup. Got the Munro question wrong, the Gerard butler one and schoolboy error for braveheart. Also the wills and Kate one wrong. More of this please!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 There's a bit of a mistake in the Gerard Butler question, since two of the answers are the same. But I'm sure all you clever chaps can work your way round that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dee_62 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 16/20 for Scotland - much more satisfying to actually know a thing or three compared to the ongoing Aussie daily guessing competition! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're relying on absolutely everyone to play with a straight bat! And judging by some of the scores achieved, we are! Just send it on to me. I've sent my score to JG anyway, so I can't change it now! Looks like we're about to get our first casualty! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was questioning process rather than integrity. If you've lodged your score then no point in a PM. I returned a reasonably healthy 17/20. Disappointed in a couple of my answers.

peasy23 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Before I post the league table... I was thinking that to cut down on the number of star in the event of equal points .. we should instead go on "goal difference" ... or in other words, if 2 team finishes on equal points .. the team that achieved the highest mark in the quiz is judged to have finished top. What does anyone think? (it doesn't affect me, but it would mean we only hand out one silver star instead of two, for the two 2nd placed finishers). It would also affect things at the bottom of the league... Given that I'm unlikely to ever have to worry about it, do whatever the feck you like!

Fortress Ibrox was indeed too much for my team of minnows to overcome. The_Kincardine 17 - 14 Cardinal Richelieu And I know how you feel Peasy...
