The All New Occasionally Aussie P+B Quiz League and ☕ Occasional Cup ☕

[Cardinal Richelieu]

What an exciting end to the season! Sponsors are happy, although I suspect a couple of teams might not be. 

Anyway, congratulations to Tynieness who scoops his 2nd league title on quiz difference (his two scores of 9 beat the next two teams who only had 1 each). However, both Scotfree and Frankie S have exactly the same scores, so they will need to enter a play off. Down at the murky end, newcomers Pleslie99 and Livi Lion couldn't handle life in the big boy's leagues, and have skulked back to the comforting bosom of the BHL.

And speaking of the BHL, teams have been exchanging places for fun, but after the dust has settled, Welshbairn is champion and gets his first piece of silverware (albeit the crappest, a bit like the Challenge Cup Final this weekend). Despite his perfect 10, Jagfox is punted to 2nd, although is still promoted. And I'm in the play-off. Huzzah. Congrats to MSU who gets a very respectable 4th place for his first season in charge.

So we need a play-off question for @scotfree vs @Frankie S and me vs @blackislekillie (why does the tagging feature stop working suddenly!). Anyone fancy doing the honours?

I've got one.

What is the melting point of lead in centigrade?

Afternoon all.
Cup semi final score time. Straight to it

WillieA v Eednud
Well what can I say? Eednud took the advantage first half with a 6-5 lead. Second half plenty at taking by both sides but Eednud couldn't hold the advantage and a late strike from Willie took the second half 6-5 resulting in a replay.

FrankieS v Whiterosekillie
The second semi certainly didn't disappoint either. Frankie giving it everything an managed a perfect 7 to WRKs 6. Frankie knew the best for of defence was attack an so he did. An almost perfect 6 kept him in command right to the end but as per usual WRK struck another perfect 7 to take this one to a replay too.

WillieA (5+6) 11 v 11 (6+5) Eednud
FrankieS (7+6) 13 v 13 (6+7) Whiterosekillie

So if everyone's happy then the above tiebreaker counts here also. Answers before lunchtime tomorrow.

[Eednud]

Soldering on and replay result sent.

8/10 for Friday. Guessed the Aussie politics one right, guessed the Aussie sport one wrong. Andrews Sisters was the other miss.

That should be 3 misses...

Is there any chance you could make the colour of the numbers of the week's total score a bit darker? It's just that I'm not finding it difficult enough to read on the black background.

Thanks in advance.

[blackislekillie]

Shouldn't pleslie be in the playoff on the basis of highest individual score? Eg 7 as opposed to my 6?

Oops. Forgot to check that. Sorry mate. No wonder it wouldn't let me tag you  ... down you go for your honesty. 

... @pleslie99 ... you're in the play-off! Please answer Welshbairn's poser at your earliest convenience!

I'll try when I get home. But why have you got a black background?

A surprising six to finish the season. Mid table mediocrity beckons.

4/10 for Friday. Sorry for late posting, was at a funeral up in Derry just back this evening.
