4/10. Knew the Celestine Prophecy one after an ex-flame forced me to read it saying it was the most amazing book. It was a bag of pish.

At least there shouldn't be any 0/10 scores 

[deej]

Defying recent form with a sexy 7/10

 

 

On a side note can we just take Thursday's scores and use them for the cup?

 

 

[Leeds Saint]

5, hoped for better

[deej]

Another honking quiz. Five, including a couple of guesses. No records this season, methinks.

Greenied in an attempt at mind games for the upcoming cup game

[gkneil]

6/10 for Thursday

[Frankie S]

7/10 for Thursday. Knew 5. Got Aussie sport wrong (x 2) and the play. Guessed TV show and Cuvier.

An acceptable 6 - partly down to 'doing' Tennessee Williams for Higher English in 19canteen.  I may even have watched said play at The Citizens.  A group of us used to go regularly and it was always enjoyable.  Is it still on the go?

You chaps are welcome to debate your plays all you like.  Some of us just kent who wasn't in it.

Sadly I wasn't one of them

Anyway, back to solid league duties. Frankie has retaken the lead from WRK who had a mini-collapse. At the bottom, tis a bit hard to see who's in most danger since we're awaiting a couple of scores.

And in Beazer Homes League, it's neck-and-neck between BIK and Livi Lion (except it isn't cos Livi Lion is ahead on quiz difference). Leedsy is in danger of Leedsing it. And if I get one more score like I have this week and last, I'm forming my own breakaway league.

What's the tiebreaker rules for people on the same amount of points?

Anyone with a "dee" in their username must be top!

 

 

ETA - alternatively, your highest score of the week v their highest score of the week and if still together, worst lowest score of the week comes into play.  After that, I've no idea.

After that.. league position of the team you support?

Anyone know how add a Celtic Avatar at all?  Asking for a friend obvs,

[BigBo10]

Cardinal just a point of order for the tables. My scores this week are 6,2,4&4 not 6,2,6&4 as posted in the table. You have been generous and I appreciate it but the integrity of the quiz must be upheld. Please deduct accordingly.

[Cardinal Richelieu]

@BigBo10 ... very honest of you. I've updated the table but can't be arsed editing my post, so you can bask in your slightly inflated score till tomorrow. 

@irvine_buddie ... dee_62 was almost right. If teams are tied, the one with the highest daily score is higher... if still tied, the team with the lowest daily score is lower. Then it goes to 2nd highest score, and then 2nd lowest score. Doesn't need to go any further than that unless the quiz goes to more than 5 days a week!

With new arrivals it's getting so the idea of a Poundland League might be worth considering. Incidentally I note whereas half the Beazer Homes teams scored a lowly but honest 3 in today's game, not a single overpaid primadonna speccy team in the Premier League did. Make of that what you will.

Though Tynieness got precisely 1 right, although he tried to use subterfuge to disguise it (the old 10 minus 9 trick).

Apologies for the late return. 4/10 for Thursday. Knew 4, and managed to defeat probability by failing to guess one out of the remaining six.

You have to be on His Eminence's Christmas card list, I think.

There was a sick quizzer in Limerick...
 

When came to the answers he was thick,
Aussie sport widnae do
Cos he hadnae a clue
And his guessing was completely horrific.

[Bully Wee Villa]

May as well get this week out the way...

Fancied I might get an eight or nine today.

No chance. An unfun funf.

7/10 to finish
