[Football] NSC Football Quiz League

[Frutos]

I'm happy with most of my answers, although for one of them I had narrowed it down to two options and I've a nagging feeling I've picked the wrong one.

Question 3 is the only one where it's pretty much a stab in the dark.

 

[Grombleton]

I may be the only one so far that *didn't* have an issue with Q3. I did however struggle with one or more of the others.

There has been a slight change in the configuration of the league table.

This is because at the end of tomorrow, when the matches are completed, any teams tied on points will be separated by correct answers overall as opposed to goal difference.

This keeps the fun game of playing each other whilst ensuring the best overall quiz performers are rewarded.

However, points are key. The overall performance component only comes into play if you are tied on points.

I think this is the fairest way as it strikes a balance.

As it stands at 1345. Two matches in round 13 completed. Tomorrow will be well EXCITING.

So there's no chance of you retiring to Benidorm with what [MENTION=4675]Frutos[/MENTION] has paid you

I'm not sure which is most insulting, suggesting that Frutos has paid me or that, in such an event, I would choose BENIDORM to retire to.

Having spent one night in Benidorm, and having seen things that would make this Brighton resident blush, I can assure you I will not be setting foot in there again.

I was encouraged to join my friends in one club where a lady was pulling various items out of her nether regions. I honestly thought I could have ordered a sofa for instant delivery.

However, Essex-on-sea has a much more pleasant resort a few miles away- Albir. I have even played cricket there. They have a team.

You can dock me a point if you so wish, for mere insolence

Given your current fear of heights in the current table, I'm not sure that such a punishment would be of much value.

****. I’m LEEDS

I am actually close to being an ANSWER to one of the questions.

(Teams that topped the table early in the season but got relegated).

Is it FAIR that a team that got more questions CORRECT than his opponent in one of the rounds was only awarded ONE point? Eh, eh?

(Sorry I'm turning into Ernest)

Dem RULES are dem RULES.

You got one more CORRECT than Hans but your other answers were so WIDE of the MARK that he ended up scoring after a DODGY penalty.

Still I was sick and tired of the glutinous praise that I had to give you something to MOAN at me about.

That's why it was called the SHITE round cos you could play well and LOOSE.

(When my old team at work stopped moaning at me I really did start to get a complex)

Ah. I said it was the hardest of the questions - not that I had an issue with it. The fact I was AT the game helped...
