WhiteRoseKillie Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 One correct Aussie guess, balanced by talking myself out of Swaziland, left me with six. Looks like a reasonable score today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Never happy when WRK gets less than 8, as that usually means the questions are very difficult and I get about 2. Got 3/10 today, knew none. If the quiz had consisted of only the first 2 questions my score would have been 100%. 3/10, not too clever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee_62 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Complete guess on the TV winner, knew the alphabet and was fairly sure on the adjective and the king. Nowhere near on the rest. 4/10 as this week's worsening scores are taking me from mid table obscurity into a relegation dogfight. Not even a cup run to distract me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard lines to Jagfox99... WhiteRoseKillie 9-6 Jagfox99 Not much to note, except they both need to brush up on their English cricket (only Kincardine got that one) .. oh and their comment re: Matthias Rust was "Top Boi" and "Sum boi" respectively! I lifted the quiz from here: http://www.independent.co.uk/extras/puzzles-and-games/quizzes/the-saturday-quiz-weekly-brain-teaser-a6934396.html And so to the final.... sadly, it's a pair of Sassenachs in the final, so the Diddly Dee Jam Jar Trophy might be heading south. Hope we can get it back for next season. I'll try and dig out a pure stinker of a quiz for the final. The_Kincardine vs WhiteRoseKillie ... Hampden Park, weekend of 29th October. Meh from me. Good luck in the Battle of the BRALT chaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do my best to ensure the Forces of Light prevail over The Diddy Darkness. He is fairly knowledgeable, though - at least early in the day. maybe if I plant a couple of bottles in the Home dressing room... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 5/10Knew four (book character, state, word and was fairly certain on Swaziland) and thought I knew the AFL one (considering I actually watched the game in question getting it wrong is pretty poor) but got it wrong. Guessed the name one correctly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) At the top, the two Killie boys are neck and neck on a fine 29 points. Unfortunately, for Blackislekillie, if two teams finish equal on points .. the winner is awarded to the team with the highest score achieved during the week, which is obviously WRK. Still, everything to play for, and even if you come 2nd, you still get a smashing silver star beside your name. Doonhamer and Bully Wee Villa, meanwhile, are fighting over who doesn't get the black star. As things stand, they both have a high score of 5 and a low score of 2. However, the next highest score is Doonhamers with another 5... so BWV needs to up his game for the last match of the season!

BlackIsle shouldn't worry - unlike my Atkinson-era Man U-style one-off bravura performances, a dogged 70s-Liverpool consistency is more valuable in a league format. If BWV goes down, do you think he'll ever come back up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Not too many sleepless nights for His Eminence as this is the last round and a potential top 6 finish with 8/10 with only the pagoda and motor bikes letting me down. Knew the Philippines, film, pastiche, Trafalgar, paella and Sirius. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=5423§ionId=1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
