Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 19 hours ago, pleslie99 said: So the 2nd round of the inaugural P&B Cedric Kipre's Xmas cup has been completed. Dyl (4+2) v Alang1993 (6+3) In the 1st match of the round dyl struggled to field a team, only getting it together with seconds to spare and his disjointed side could only manage 4 in the 1st half. The 2nd half was a low scoring affair from both sides with Alang 'shangalang' 1993 doing enough to progress to the 1/4 finals. BWV (6+3) v SlipperyP (5+ A tight 1st half in this one saw BWV take a slender lead into half time. His boys thought they had done enough but SlipperyP got his tactics spot on and demolished BWV in the 2nd half, smashing home a staggering 8 goals to see his side into the quarters. The captain (4+7) v Cardinal Richelieu (5+5) Both teams were disappointed with their 1st half performances in this one. Cardi showing his experience and getting his nose in front at half time. The captain came out firing In the 2nd half and both went hard at it trying to secure the win. Cardi ran out of steam as the captain fired home a late winner to progress. Kincardine (8+7) v Eednud (7+3) Both sides knew this was going to be a tough match and the 1st half didn't disappoint. Kincardine firing home on the stroke of half-time to take a narrow lead into the break. Eednud knew he had to give it a go in the 2nd half and left spaces for kincardine to exploit and fire home a solid 7 in the 2nd half to go through with a bit to spare. Tynieness (9+7) v AFJ (8+ The most highly anticipated match of the round didn't disappoint. Both sides traded blows right up to the final whistle. A classic cup tie. Tynieness won the 1st half but AFJ rallied to win the 2nd to force extra time. Peasy23 (6+5) v Cowden0 (7+7) Peasy23 knew this was going to be hard against the highest scorer from round 1. Cowden0 didn't disappoint his fans and even playing into a strong wind 2nd half won both halves to go through. LiviLion (7+4) v Welshbairn (6+3) Two sides giving it all to try make the quarters but there could only be one winner. LiviLion took the 1st half 7 to 6 and with welshbairn coming out to try get back into the match, LiviLion got his tactics spot on to advance. Helpma (6+ v Jacksgranda (5+2) The weekends late kick off featured Jacksgranda who, after not knowing he was in the 2nd round, had sent some of his big hitters away on a training camp in the sun meaning he had to field his reserves. The youngsters fought valiantly in the 1st half but ran out of gas 2nd half as the experience of Helpma shone through. So the extra time question for AFJ and tynieness. How many words are there in the king James bible? Answers by Thursday at 5pm please. Given our respective scores, Tynie and I should be declared joint winners. I remember being asked this question in a pub quiz many years ago. Unfortunately I do not remember the answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answers by Thursday at 5pm please. b*****d. Missed out by a point. I asked that as a tie-breaker a few months ago... maybe that's what AFJ is alluding to you. And you're staying in the SWL for this season, only cos I've already rejiggered it and I'll be buggered if I'm unrejiggering it. League tables will come tomorrow. Probably. I've just finished day 2 of a 3 day long training session run by the doppelganger of Vince McMahon. But it'll be over by tomorrow evening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DA Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 5 for Wednesday for me. Based on the law of averages, you'd think I'd get the Aussie sports question right 25% of the time, but naw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 My strategy for Australian questions is to choose answer 3. (Unless I know the answer - which is very rare - and answer 3 isn't it, obviously.) I usually go for the same answer on the principle that eventually it must be the right one. The same principle applies to other things like Aussie Rules and NRL. Hasn't worked much there either to be fair, though the tactic has worked with Japanese islands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 7 / 10 for Wednesday including an Australian Prime Minister, miraculous. That question irritated me. My eyes were drawn to the words "Prime Minister" and then to "Falklands War", and I felt a wave of confidence pass through me.Then I noticed "of Australia" and started swearing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
