LongTimeLurker Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 A pathetic 3/10 made all the more ignominioius by getting a Canadian themed question wrong despite living there for many years and frequently having been in the chain where dutchies are most likely to be sold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckthearab Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 1 2 3 5 7 and 8 correct for another 6, seems to be my favourite number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) It's getting exciting at the top with only 2 points separating the top 7 players. G_Man and Supermik might have done enough to prevent another black mark in their copybook!

We potentially have about 22 players, so there'll be a lot of byes! But I'll make sure that all the part-time quizzers are drawn against the full-timers, just so that we definitely have 16 in the next round.

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 One point off the top, wow! This is the proudest moment of my life since I told the lead singer of Busted to f**k off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I didn't know who he was until my friend told me. He came over and said "give me some pills".Had he been polite and asked for some I may have obliged. Better still he could've offered to buy some and I would've got them for him. But the way he just said "give them to me" pissed me off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deej Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 5/10 for todays, and a surprising 7/10 for yesterdays. Things are looking up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Er, are you a drug dealer then?! (edit ... or a pharmacist?) Neither. I did used to enjoy a Benteke or two and my facial mannerisms probably made it obvious from several miles away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 ...And you join us for the qualifying round for the Charles Ingram Memorial P+B Cup, scheduled take place throughout the month of October and televised live on Sky Sports 1. Here is the draw... I'll post the quiz on Friday lunchtime (once I find a good Northern hemisphere one). You have from Friday lunchtime till Monday lunchtime to PM your score (plus any comments) and then I'll post the results on Monday afternoon. Please note that currently many teams get a bye. However, any latecomers before Friday will then be assigned to the first team to get a bye in the list. (Not sure if this is clear, but it makes sense in my head). @Zen Archer vs @Ross. @LongTimeLurker vs @die hard doonhamer @alang1993 vs @Richie95 @Leeds Saint vs 1st newcomer / bye @Cardinal Richelieu vs 2nd newcomer / bye @Bully Wee Villa vs 3rd newcomer / bye Peasy23 vs newcomer / bye Swarley vs newcomer / bye G_Man1985 vs newcomer / bye Supermik vs newcomer / bye The_Kincardine vs newcomer / bye Jagfox99 vs newcomer / bye welshbairn vs newcomer / bye Jacksgranda vs newcomer / bye Dayman vs newcomer / bye WhiteRoseKillie vs newcomer / bye eckthearab vs newcomer / bye Edmund vs newcomer / bye Dee_62 vs newcomer / bye 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckthearab Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'm happy with that [emoji41][emoji106] unless there's an inordinate amount of newcomers I should be safe [emoji33] well done Cardinal, fair play to ye for taking it upon yourself to do the draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee_62 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Don't know what it is @CardinalRichelieu but my iPad doesn't display any of the league tables you add or the latest cup draw. No idea who I'm up against and I'm going to be away from my laptop for the a while. (Maybe it's for the best!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could start just creating an image of the league table instead if that would help I believe Bully Wee Villa had a solution to the problem. You're not actually in the qualifying round (unless we get about 15 latecomers!). So the 1st round proper starts next week... do you still want to drop out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep me in, I can see the links for the quizzes and read the instructions, I'll just have to wait to get to my laptop to see how many gold stars I end up with!

I know why we always get it right. The answer is always, and I mean ALWAYS, Honshu. If I didn't know any better, I'd say everything is on that island. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
