Cardinal Richelieu Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 3 minutes ago, SlipperyP said: Yes I agree just 1 play off should be sufficient. They could even do the cup quiz for the play off? Normally they could, but the problem is that Blackislekillie is in both so it might be a bit unfair - either on him or his opponents! Mind you, that's what they do in the African Cup of Nations .. do they use the same qualifying groups for the World Cup? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 They do. I remember because South Africa were the first ever World Cup hosts who you could definitely say wouldn't have qualified had they not been hosts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip. High score is taken first, then low score, then 2nd highest score, 2nd lowest etc. But since DHD and BIK selfishly got exactly the same scores, we're having a 3 team play-off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't read this if you've not taken my, ahem dole bludger's quiz (sadly I don't get the dole since I flounced out of my job and didn't get sacked) Five people have taken the quiz already, including a couple of "big names", and you've got the highest score.

Glad to see the end of a miserable quizzing (guessing) week. I get lots of "analytics" on the quiz, including how many people chose each answer. Was it you who answered "Jacksgranda" for Winston Smith's girlfriend?! To be fair, I don't even know if my quiz is available to the general hoi-polloi... if there is, there's probably a few bemused yanks out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure the same as cup after all it's bigger. So a 10 question or so should be the answer. This is the future. Going down or up means lives. How you get on with the wife etc. Can't just drop 1 bomb and let them get on with it..,. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Dundee pack it in when they were languishing at the bottom of the SPFL? No! They dug in and now they're third bottom! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
