[Misc] NSC Quiz- Summer Championships

[Eeyore]

I might be wrong, but the table says i scored 11 in the QF but the results I scored 12?

EDIT: I've re-inserted the updated table in the original post.

 

[Eeyore]

Think I scored 11 in QF, you've put me down for 10? (although I misread season for year in Q5, as you normally just say which year).

No, the table is correct, you got 10.

Q1, you had Everton. You did say 'got to be them or Villa' but Everton was taken as the answer.
Q3, you had Oxford
Q11, you had 2005
Q13, you had 54
Q14, you had Bournemouth

The last person I would want to UPSET is you.

Sorry, you are correct - confused by the two Lutons!

I like the fact that despite the proliferation of minnows, we've ended up with three realistic teams in the Euro finals - Italy v Belgium and Netherlands v Moldova. Moldova obviously the massive outsiders, who have gamefully fought their way to the semis with the help of an easy draw and a lot of good fortune.

Having parked both the elite [MENTION=1131]Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo[/MENTION] & [MENTION=3566]hans kraay fan club[/MENTION] (ranked 1 & 4 in manager's Merit League) in round two, I wouldn't plan on visiting Chișinău any time soon after BESMIRCHING Moldova's reputation.

It's on Rosia Road near the dockyard. We'll be in there from midday tomorrow.

If you need any more info [MENTION=27836]Barham's tash[/MENTION] is the liaison officer.

I’ve had a word and jäger bombs are 3 for £5. Of course they also have conditioned cask ales as well but you know certain times call for certain drinks.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Bloody hell I am STOKED to have made the semi finals. Unfortunately I'm up against the might of [MENTION=2854]John Boy[/MENTION]. I faced off against him in the second group stage, got 4 out of five questions right in both match ups and still only came away with a solitary point. It's going to be a tough one.

 

[Eeyore]

Unashamed reminder to folk as responses were a little low today 9/26. There's normally a late flurry after the second gee-up but as everyone is in HOLIDAY mode and planning trips to places like Durham I thought I'd put a second call out tonight.

Problem is that when two or three days are allowed for answers it actually makes them harder to get back !

So answers aren't late, it's just a gentle reminder to not forget before close of play tomorrow.

Funniest answer of the round so far:

Who is currently 13th in the Premier League ? Sheffield Wednesday.

Thanks for doing this BL, it's been a tremendous competition and a lot of fun.

Congratulations to [MENTION=22929]Grombleton[/MENTION] & [MENTION=2854]John Boy[/MENTION] on reaching the final.

Hard luck for [MENTION=4417]The Complete Badger[/MENTION] in the second semi final.

Still awaiting three sets of results before the Merit League is published but it's close for automatic offered Premier League places in the future league.

Hopefully the three remaining sets players will send their answers in and the last set of questions can be published at some stage tomorrow.

Does this mean there is an all-Benelux final that doesn't feature Luxembourg?!

Does this mean there is an all-Benelux final that doesn't feature Luxembourg?!

Unfortunately only two countries can contest the final. And as Luxembourg performed as expected they weren't one of them.

However, the committee did feel that Luxembourg were worthy of their place in the Whingers Final. It may be a slightly one sided affair as they have won all their matches so far by MASSIVE margins.
