Winged it on the play and chemical element. (Still can't get rid of quoting Eastswarleyshire.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Spoiler Oh dear, my guessometer shorted and I scored 4/10. Add in reading veracious as voracious and I am a cock. A bottling cock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I made the same mistake re: veracious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 A veracious 5/10. Fluked a couple, 50/50'd a couple so can't complain. Yet again solidly mid table with no chance of ever grabbing a Euro spot. Some of the groundhopper fans are hoping for demotion next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRoseKillie Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Nine for Friday - only the European parasite wrong. Continuing this week's motif of performing when it no longer matters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie S Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 11 hours ago, Cardinal Richelieu said: Okay. I've undisregarded the couple of "half sings" and included them. The final total is 46. Bully Wee Villa went for 51 and Frankie 42. Frankie is closest and progresses through to his first final. Apologies BWV, I know nothing about Travis, but 42 is the answer to the ultimate question of Life, the Universe and Everything after all. Had a decent week on the quizzing front. My team won a pub quiz by a record 26 points last night. Have a feeling we might get barred soon though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 A feeling very seedy 4/10 to finish the week. Knew the film, the park and the King, guessed the chemical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) 6/10 today. Fairly respectable total this week. Will need to fit next weeks quiz into Thursday and Friday, off home from tonight until Wednesday for a few days of well earned jakery.

Cardinal Richelieu Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 League first. Congrats to Alang1993 who scoops another gong. Tynieness nearly hibsed it, but picks up a very respectable 2nd place. Down at the bottom, my relegation is without doubt. Felicitations to Die Hard Doonhamer who I believe is the first team to get the same score every day of the week. Sadly, it's not enough for him to avoid the drop. Leeds Saint is in another play-off.

eckthearab Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Woohoo!! Automatic promotion back to the big time [emoji41] some serious restructuring within the boardroom to ensure it doesn't happen again is needed so the off season will be a busy one. Hope I can take this strong finish and momentum into the cup final. All the best to Frankie S for the big match!! Will Pm my score later today when not so busy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
