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


Recommended Posts

I hope we don't see any significant behavioural changes in the Cardinal with this new power he has been handed.

*awaits a breakaway top league of one, with no acknowledgement of the other leagues even existing anymore*

Dear Cardinal

Sent you a private message yesterday with my answers correct or otherwise..

Never received it. Can you send it again please?

Just read the Cardi is off his rocker as he's now a Mod.

Sigh. Don't make me reach for my shiny new banmallet. 

In cup news, 24 hours to go and we're still waiting for a whole host of results. 

  • Cowden0 vs The DA
  • Dee Man vs madwullie
  • Helpma
  • Tynieness
  • MSU 
  • Scotfree
  • Supermik (says he sent it but I have no record of it)
  • The Captain (as above)
  • Wilkinson1998

I'll post the quiz once more... 

  1. Until recently, which famous athlete held the world record for the 100m sack race? 
  2. What word can precede ‘beer’, ‘bread’, and ‘nut’ to make well-known terms?
  3.  In 1997, Mike Tyson bit a piece off whose ear during a boxing bout?
  4. Which brand of whisky has an image of Lagopus lagopus scotica on the label?
  5.  In chess, a move in which a player sacrifices a piece in the hope of gaining in the longer term is known as a what? 
  6. ‘The Last King of Scotland’ (2006) was set in which country? 
  7. When TNT is expanded into the full word, how many letters does it contain? 
  8. Bonzo the chimp was one of the two male stars of the film ‘Bedtime for Bonzo’. Who was his human co-star? 
  9. What is the Italian for ‘None shall sleep’? 
  10. Which Caribbean island group has a reptilian name? 

Of course, it all might be a bit moot, as we have a couple more scores in:

  • Bully Wee Villa 6 vs 5 Dyl 
  • Eednud 9 vs 6 deej + 6 WILLIEA
So for the round it's sitting at 4-4 for the round and Scotland: 24.0215 vs RotW: 29.06875 ... by my calculations (and BWV's), Scotland need to win 7 out of the last 9 legs.

They need to win 7.5 of the last 9.

 

If they win 7 exactly, we win 31.06875 to 31.0215.

 

So two more points needed for us, I reckon...

Apologies for late start to the week's quizzes. Always a bit slow to get going early in the week. 9/10 for Monday. Bizarrely, guessed Aussie sport question, but got the trivial pursuit question wrong. Even though it's been years since I played it, should have rembered that one :lol:

8 for Tuesday. TV show and Elizabeth Schwarzkopf (have heard the name but couldn't place her) wrong.

Well, not much point in delving in some heavy-duty analysis of the league tables since it's been a slow start to the season ... pretty sure I've missed off some people, but I've learnt that the quickest way to find this out is not to sift through 6 pages of posts - it's just to show the incomplete league tables. They'll soon make themselves known.
