Well that time is upon us again, yes it's Diddly Dee Jamjar Trophy semi final time. 2 huge matches to bring you tonight and it's fair to say we haven't been disappointed. First up tonight we have The_Kincardine v DeeJ. And with both teams raring to go it's over to Archie McPherson for the match summary. And so it finished here,The_Kincardine (4+5) 9 v 10 (4+6) DeeJ. Best wishes to DeeJ in the final. WRK's a bit of a quizzing machine! As for today....a meh 5/10 for more mid-table mediocrity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Bearing in mind Tyniesness's score of eight, I scored 35/10, at least. If anyone is wondering whether or not it would be better to do the quiz with the best part of two bottles of red down your neck.................... ........it made little or no difference. Knew the majority of the ones I got right, and fecked up on Aussie sport (surprise surprise), and Dean Barrow. Dubai was easy - I lived there. Just noticed that I guessed the Aussie cycling question right - there's a first. I've got Mrs AFJ to thank for question 3 and her obsession with WWII related movies. Roll on the "Enemy At The Gates" questions. Espoo question helped by our planning a football trip to a country with a summer league. Destined never to win, just like Linfield. And Bo'ness United. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Oh, back in the real world, I scored 8/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotfree Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 A rather flat 6/10. But, still pleased with my score this week. This thread has brought my faith in P&B back. Well done, lads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreenElves Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Not sure what I need to stay in the top league. Will wait till later before I attempt the quiz( probably a bad idea based on my previous scores) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear my current highest placing of 7th in the league may be short lived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie S Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Misread one on the cup quiz. Saw the word syzygy and instinctively hit the option marked 'astronomy.' Only then realised that the question was asking which of the four fields the term didn't apply to! Never heard the term applied outwith astronomy, so no guarantee I would have got it right anyway, and would still have lost in any case, but not the first time I've failed to read a question properly. Well played WRK! Great score on a challenging quiz. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Apologies for the wait Tynieness, I'm sure you didn't get a wink of sleep last night! Anyway, it gives me great pleasure to announce that there will be a new name on the P+B Quiz League... yours! 2 points separate you from your stalwart AFJ, who scoops his 2nd place gong and narrowly pips Frankie into S on question difference. They'll be dancing on the streets of Hearts and Linfield this evening. Meanwhile, at the other end, Alang1993's decision not to do the quiz until the actual day it's supposed to be done means Edmund and Cowden0 face an agonising wait to see if they're relegated / in the play-offs. Bully Wee Villa has no such worries as he's definitely relegated. Hard lines BWV!

Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Cheers Mr 1993. That means that we have our play-off between two league newcomers .... @cowden0 and @gkneil. Rather than post a tie-break question, they can both do the cup final quizzes that Eck will be posting soon - then PM their scores to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
