SlipperyP Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) Playoff time is up #128 the winners.... First we had to get through the medals of 2 leagues. World Super League Champion Playoff @8MileBU 198765 v @Rugster No fuckin idea. Could be 10 million could be one thousand. I thought about trying some mental arithmetic but can’t be arsed so I’ll just say a quarter of a million people. v @Tynierose What a toughie. Let's go for 129292. 2nd Division League Champion Playoff @alang1993 229,110 v @Ziggy I could show my workings but since I’ve no clue about the population of the US I won’t bother. 239,000.4 Aileen Wuornos Playoff @Helpma P15 W5 L10 last app: 26th Oct 2019 191,649 v @Cardinal Richelieu P21 W11 L10 last app: 21st Dec 2019 Right. Logic dictates that it's the population of USA / 365 / 4 Which would be 240,000 - but I'll bump it up a bit for absolutely no reason. 250,001. Richard Ramirez Playoff @mathematics P6 W4 L2 last app: 18th Jan 2020 i have no idea of the population of Amerikkka, so let’s use the tried and trusted method of sticking a pi in somewhere and call it pi*100,000,000. A 29th February occurs every 1461 days, so assuming that every day has equal probability of birth rate, a quick division gives me around 215,000. Thats my answer: 215,000. v @JamesP_81 P14 W9 L5 last app 14th Dec 2019 29th Feb happens once every 1461 days, there must be around 350M folk in the USA, so I'd calculate roughly 240,000 Question - How many people in the USA who are still alive, were born on 29th February. 187,000 https://www.infoplease.com/leap-year-explained World Super League Champion is @8MileBU, the doubles in the bag. Very well played sir. Silver Medal goes to @Tynierose. @Rugster fights another day! 2nd Division Champion is @alang1993 congratulations. Runner up @Ziggy. Playoffs - @Helpmastays in the top flight with the closest guess this weekend. No leap up for the @Cardinal Richelieu & @mathematics pied @JamesP_81 with a dominant show to keep is place in the 2nd Division. Have a lucky weekend everyone.

Eednud Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Double new season here, autumn and quiz league. Life in the 2nd Division league starts with 8/10 thanks to a fidel io and a house of lies. http://quizoftheday.co.uk/1082 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helpma Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Nice performance from the boys in the play-off. Though it was based on a false assumption, I thought the population of America was only 280 million. Still, at least I remembered that there's an extra day in a leap year, a rookie defensive error that fatally crippled His Eminences calculations. Oh, and 9/10 for Monday. I should have gone for my gut instincts for the building. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league table doesn’t lie... There is a rule that was brought in via committee at the annual general meeting 2018/19, that all players MUST complete the 5 days, otherwise they will finish bottom no matter if they had a higher score than other players. @Cardinal Richelieu was present at the meeting..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) Shout out to @Tynierose & @Silky Si McFly I think 1 of you are up to do the next cup quiz, sort it out between yourselves. Also, for the weeks starting the 10th & 17th March. I can't do the tables as my sister is coming over to visit. It's her 50th birthday, I'll be dedicated my time with Chang her, again @Leeds Saint, @Eednud or @NJ2 you can sort it out who wants/can to do it. Thanks.

TheGreenElves Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 8 for Monday. Was confident with the first 6, then swayed on the height of empire state building but went with my gut feeling and got it right. Got rugby wrong, then fluked the county. Had never heard of the song, so got that wrong as well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
