9. Fewer chess questions please. More quark questions appreciated though. 

Folk who haven't done the quiz keep scrolling.

Spoiler

I think a quark is a physics thing right? How can it have a flavour?

Spoiler

Just the name given. Rather than bland old "type" they called them "flavours". And if you want to get even further into things, they have a "colour" which isn't a real colour, just a way of saying which combinations can exist in nature. So you have red, blue and green, and then the anti-quarks (like the anti-up, which is different from a down!) can be anti-red, anti-blue and anti-green. You need to add up to white to have a legitimate particle so you need all three colours, or a colour and it's anti-colour to exist in nature. Tl;Dr, it's just physicists being "funny".

My legs have experienced anti-up before after too many beers.

The COPA VIVA ESPAÑA Third Round, or as some might call it Round of 16 (and quite a few more here), results follow but first a word about the scoring. It’s the aggregate of all 3 rounds less a handicap for where you finished in the league for week ending Fri 18 August. 1st in top league is -14 down to -1 for 14th place. Middle league handicap is -7 for 1st down to -0.5 for 14th and bottom division half again. 

Where the net winning scores are tied both go through to the next round.

@The Hologram   3,4,7 = 14 -5.5 = 8.5 /  @Cardinal Richelieu   3,4,3=7-2.75=4.25   v      @mathematics 4,2,4=10-2.5=7.5  /   @BaSeDG0DSA1NT 2,4,3=9-0.5=8.5  /  1,4,5=10-12= -2  @scottsdad

@Ronaldo Jeremy 4,3,4=11-3.25=7.75  /    @gkneil 3,1,1=5-10= -5 v    @BigBo10  3,2,1=6-0.75=5.25  / 2,4,3=9-6.5=2.5  @Leeds Saint

@Jacksgranda 0,0,0=0-2.25 = -2.25. The reason you weren’t in the draw was because you never posted a score for the first round.

Through to the Quarter Finals are @The Hologram and @BaSeDG0DSA1NT; @Ross.; @German Jag; @senorsoupe; @101 and @JustOneCornetto; @Ronaldo Jeremy; @Bully Wee Villa and @Spring Onion; @pleslie99 and @SlipperyP

Thanks all for participating and for your patience. No communication will be entered into from any we wuz robbed moaners. Draw and questions later.
