Blootoon87 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Bit of a problem with the diddy league, o got 6 for Monday, not 8. I know this leaves me open to receiving the wooden spoon again depending on games in hand, but someone has to get it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Well I wrote it down as an 8 and that’s the way it will stay. You will be deducted 2 points for not telling me by smoko on Wednesday but the 2 points are reinstated for being honest. The wooden spoon belongs to 101 this week as any missing scores are deemed, in best Katie Boyle voice, nul points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 This reminds me of the song Fast Car by Tracy Chapman, especially the line "You'll find work and I'll get promoted". It's very apt, except I've already got a job and I've not been promoted. Well done @Silky Si McFly ... I'm sorely tempted to strip out all that populist nonsense in your quiz I'm running tomorrow, and replace it with questions about architecture and Japanese poetry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomintroll Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Table time and in the Premier one [mention=46541]8MileBU[/mention] wins it by 2 points from [mention=72852]Moomintroll[/mention] on QD from [mention=68793]Salvo Montalbano[/mention]. At the bottom down goes [mention=20423]alang1993[/mention] and any 2 or 3 out of [mention=8409]Ziggy[/mention] [mention=38419]The DA[/mention] or [mention=50998]wastecoatwilly[/mention]. They all finished on 39 points with the exact same daily scores. The SWL title goes to [mention=78193]Silky Si McFly[/mention] 4 points ahead of 2nd place [mention=30230]Tynierose[/mention] and it's a play-off for 3rd place and the play-off spot between myself [mention=44974]Eednud[/mention] and [mention=75884]MixuFixit[/mention] So a 5 way play-off for promotion/relegation. Down go [mention=37888]Mark Connolly[/mention] [mention=73487]NJ2[/mention] and [mention=36343]Ross.[/mention] on QD from play-spotter [mention=74823]Spring Onion[/mention] The BWV flag goes to [mention=75119]CaspianChris[/mention] 3 points ahead of [mention=42470]SteelJag[/mention] and [mention=69028]Snobot[/mention] with [mention=72090]JamesP_81[/mention] taking the play-off spot on QD. [mention=29470]SlipperyP[/mention] avoids the wooden spoon as it goes to [mention=66969]101[/mention] . Over to [mention=29470]SlipperyP[/mention] to check my QDing, gives us the play-off participants play-off stats and set the play-off question. Sorry to burden you with this one Eednud but I finally have a figure on the honours board, I feeneshed 3rd a couple of weeks ago & got heehaw so what exactly do the "S" & "B" Columns mean? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pleslie99 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Semi Final cup deadline has passed. Answers are below for anyone that took part for fun. 1. What year was Dumbarton FC founded? 1872 2. What is the name of Cove Rangers stadium? BALMORAL STADIUM 3. What team won the Scottish cup in 1984? ABERDEEN 4. What Disney movie features the characters Chief Bogo and Flash? ZOOTOPIA - I did accept zootropolis as it was called this in some countries. 5. What year was Toy Story released? 1995 6. Who voices Rapunzel in the film Tangled? MANDY MOORE 7. What is the name of the building that replaced the Twin Towers following the 2001 attack? THE ONE WORLD TRADE CENTRE 8. What is the name of the tallest Waterfall in England? CAUTLEY SPOUT 9. What is the name of the Tallest mountain in Australia? MOUNT KOSCIUSZKO 10. What year did Winston Churchill 1st become PM of the UK? 1940 So onto the 4 souls who made it this far. In the 1st semi final saw Silky Si Mcfly take on 101. I had high hopes for Silky after learning he compiles and hosts pub quizzes. Credit where credits due, there was no passes and a genuine attempt at every question was made. However, some of these attempts were weird and wonderful and Silky stumbled his way to 2/10. After that performance the bookies decided all 101 had to do was turn up and a place in the final was his, unfortunately he forgot to turn up, a search party was sent but 101 got lost in the pub. Silky goes through! In the 2nd semi it was 8mileBU v Peasy23. Much higher scoring affair this. 8mileBU raced away getting the 1st 7 correct, a minor blip as he passed on the waterfall and Aussie mountain but finished strongly for a solid 8. Peasy23 tried to match him and dug deep with some good answers, too many passes in the end saw him score a respectable 6 but it wasnt enough. 8mileBU will face Silky si Mcfly in the final. Questions for the final will be up tomorrow, again there is no multiple choice and this time it will be out of 20! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
