Seven, let down by getting the pasta wrong. Am I being whooshed with the references to Nicaragua?

They've fixed it. Last night 2 of the answers were the same but only one accepted as correct.

Six, will do for my debut

Welcome Cowden0. Is this a fleeting visit, or would you like to join the league? If it's the latter, take Monday - Wednesday's quiz for this week from the archive: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz-archive (and do tomorrow's quiz when it's posted). 

You'll also be in time to take part in our monthly cup competition which I believe starts at the weekend. 

Anyway, here's the tables... let me know if I've got any scores wrong.

In the Premiership, Alang's "perfect 10" pushes him up to third after his self-confessed "woeful Wednesday". Tynieness posted a very respectable score, but it's probably like repositioning the deckchairs on the Titanic.

In the Beazer Homes League, BIK marches on, with Swarley banging on the door. Was it only a couple of months ago when Swarley was threatening to the leave the league after a string of bad results?! Hope I haven't jinxed you!

Welcome indeed, Cowden0.

The organisers of the league will now, surely, be unable to ignore the clamour to reorganise the divisions so that they are more equal.

Preferably in a week in which I would otherwise miss out on promotion by a place or two.

I suggest we follow the Belgian 16 teams with splits format. It's horrendously complicated so should keep the Cardinal away from the communion wine while he's between parishes.

Yeah, I should have scored 7 rather than 6 for Thursday.

Perhaps my post above was a little cryptic. I knew the flag colours, but chose the wrong option of the (as then) two 'right options' available. A 6 that should have been, had the quiz not been broken, a 7, so I'll have 7 for that, thanks!

Tie of the round and bound to be an all-ticket affair.
