I was surprised by the right answer and checked it later but everywhere I checked gave the same answer. Spoiler The Gobi Desert is in East Asia, not Central Asia. They even had the correct answer as one of the options. Edited April 10, 2017 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBo10 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 In the cup quiz, the question about the Iranian guy, did the question not ask which option didn't happen then give the correct answer as one that did or am I just a fud? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That question confused me, too. I can't remember what my answer was, and it wouldn't have made a difference to the result had I got it right.

After having a bit of a read of the story it appears the correct answer given was the correct answer. He did receive the money, he was deemed to be overweight and he was cleared of wrongdoing. Hence the correct answer was that he wasn't banned from future Olympics. Hope this clears up the doubt. I couldn't understand the question either and so it was the only one i got wrong of that set. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 Right. The people have spoken. We currently have 36 teams playing ... will it be a simple 12 - 12 - 12? Should it be 2 up / 2 down, or 1 up / 1 down + a play off? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
