Cardinal Richelieu Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 1 hour ago, cowden0 said: I'll go for 500 as I'm sure the band were paying tribute to the proclaimers 500 (S)miles. Think being snowed in is having an effect on my reasoning. Either that or the snow I'm forced to boil for water is contaminated. The answer was "27 yards of dental floss".... Here are the scores: Peasy23: Going for 10 yards of dental floss. NJ2: 18 yards. A penalty box length of floss. cowden0: I'll go for 500 as I'm sure the band were paying tribute to the proclaimers 500 (S)miles. Only one team can go up (unless I've made a dick of it again) ... NJ2's scientific approach means he is victorious. German Jag: A stab in the dark and will say 40. Not listened to HMHB since the mid 80s! dee_62: 999 yards Meanwhile, the fact that German Jag used to be into HMHB 30 years ago puts him into good stead. Up he stays. It's certainly not one of their best songs, but it does contain the line "It's not like you've been captured by Barbary Corsairs" which is a plus point. Tempted to relegate everyone for not knowing HMHB's back catalogue, but since I'm a man of the cloth, I'll stick to the rules. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 23 minutes ago, Tynieness said: The number that Welshbairn got plus the play off question answer minus the amount of Slam events Federer has won times by the amount of majors Colin Montgomerie won, minus the terms served by George W Bush, minus the amount of times Stranraer have won the Challenge Cup. Then proceed to divide that total by the amount of medals Laura Muir won at Worlds. That's my score for today @Cardinal Richelieu The joke is on you my friend. Because despite that your "hilarious" riddle ends in a division, I have you down as 0. mwahahaha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBo10 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Knew two. Guessed six out of the next eight wrong and two right for yet another 4/10. Also I counted Tynieness as scoring -2. Maths wasn’t a strong point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 A poor 5 for Monday. I thought I'd done better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 6/10 for Monday. Bit disappointing after getting the first 5 right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Captain Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 4 / 5 looking good in the first half - followed by a complete collapse and failure - to finish a fab 4 / 10. Likely my stay in this league will prove short. Tynieness must have quaffed a fair amount of TL today. If the cardinal judges his score as zero would seem churlish to quibble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else would be Mod corruption and nepotism (probably, have they both been to Fife or Ayrshire?). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 6/10 for Monday. I didn't even attempt to work out Tynieness score. -2 sounds about right tho. I'd go for that 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
