dee_62 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Knew the bone and the movie, educated guess on the independence and lucky guess on the Aussie medalist. 6 incorrect guesses though. Disappointing 4/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermik Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 7/10. Twice in a row! Must be possessed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Thought this was my chance to rise up the standings, but with a woeful 4, that's not going to happen. I thought my answer for the Pond question was spot-on (it is almost) and the less said about the Botswana question the better. All I've got to forward to this week is writing the numbers 1-16 on little bits of paper then putting them in a cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Saint Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Having got the first 4 wrong 5 was an OK result 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) And here's the cup draw. Late league joiners like Marr1 and WillieA will have to wait till next month's cup. From next month, I'll just take the top 16 regular players and do away with the annoying qualifying round which kinda died on its arse. G_Man 1985 vs WhiteRoseKillie Bully Wee Villa vs Edmund (we'll be losing a top quizzer!) The_Kincardine vs Swarley Alang1993 vs Die Hard Doonhamer Jacksgranda vs SlipperyP Supermik vs Peasy Cardinal Richelieu vs Welshbairn Eckthearab vs Jagfox99. Cup draws to be played this coming weekend. I'll post the quiz (it'll be a stinker) on Friday.... Edit: f**k. Forgot about Dee_62. Told you I'd f**k this up somehow. Still, I reckon at least one person will fail to post their score when they take the quiz, so Dee_62 will take their place. A thousand sorries.

Didn't even know there was a league having been just a sporadic visiter. Anyhoo!

WhiteRoseKillie Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 An absolutely guesstastic eight - Danish artist and Aussie politico letting me down. Would have been happy with half that, in all honesty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically, I've got a bye...but into the same round. And you just know that this will be the week that everyone will take part! i could see myself ghosting all the way through to a semifinal at this rate! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it's fair to say I drew a cock all over this one. As a man of the cloth, I will of course let you have my place (no way I was going to beat Welshbairn anyway). If anyone doesn't submit a score, I'll play them instead - otherwise I'm out the cup without losing a match!

I'll just wait and see what happens. Let's just say I fielded an ineligible player or filled in my team sheet incorrectly. I'm happy to wait for the next one if need be. You carry on with your tie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is much nicer than The Pregnancy Thread, I've decided. Okay. Thank you for falling on your sword. You can submit your answers as normal and I'm sure we'll squeeze you in somewhere (insert Kenneth Williams picture). Here's the league table... the usual suspects at the top!
