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


Recommended Posts

Nadia Comăneci achieved it in gymnastics, Torville and Dean at ice dancing - and now we can also talk about Mark Connolly with the same hushed deference. Not even my throwing of the toys out of the pram at having to do the league tables next week can detract from the fact that 50/50 in the league is a fine achievement that I would be putting on my CV. He is the worthy recipient of the winner's gif ...

Amongst the mere mortals, Salvo picks up 2nd place. At the other end, Helpma and pleslie99 are relegated - and Silky Si McFly is also showing a serious lack of toys + in pram synergy at getting relegated with 45 points. 8MileBU is in the play-offs.

The DA has proved that he is the da of the SWL, with JamesP and Ziggy also being promoted. And it looks like both geaky and I are in the play-offs. At the other end, deej is nowhere to be found, Tynierose has fallen on his sword and NJ2 is also sunk. wastecoatwilly is bumped into the play-offs on QD.

Edmund has finally managed to escape the bottom league at about the 4th time of asking, Ross and returnee gkneil are up - and mathematics in the play-off. 

At the bottom, there was a thrilling fight over custody of the wooden spoon, but Jacksgranda clinches it with a worse QD. Well done to him.

Now it's over to our Man in Manila (or near there), @SlipperyP - to sort out the play-offs. 

And I'm away to do my tax return. It's shite being a grown-up.

Bloody hell, scoring 45 & escaping relegation on QD. Either we are all getting smarter or those questions were easy this week, I know what my money is on.

No, nothing, zilch. Never been anything here in Singburi province happen for Chinese New Year while I've stayed. 12 years.  Only thing I noticed today, was the market was not as busy.

To be honest nobody round here gives a f**k for the CNY, we're generally all poor Thai farmers.  The rice basket of Thailand.

Hope you're enjoying yourself and hope the Elephant sanctuary is good.

Going next week, looking forward to it as some places abuse the poor things to make money by letting people ride on them and bathe with them, not my thing at all.

Looking at the top table... should 8mile not be 7th equal, and me, Moomintroll, and Leeds Saint all in the playoff?

Yes, yes you should. I've pretty much made a rod for my own back with all these rules. 

I think it's only fitting that in my last week in charge, we should make it a MEGALEAGUE (or is it a SUPERLEAGUE, I forget). 

It's a one-weeker anyway. Every c**t in one big happy league. 

@SlipperyP ... sorry lad. I'd be interested to know the correct answer, but I reckon you might have had a few ties anyway. 

See you in the big league next season chaps. 

(sorry)

I usually pickup these slight problems, but couldn't see through the tears.

I'm more than happy as your last league table to be a SUPERLEAGUE.

As for the answer I only had 3 answers

Just typical, win promotion and for the umpteenth time it’s a SUPERMEGAMEGAFUCKINGLEAGUE.  Better not throw out the bucket and spade then.

NJ2 fully endorse the decision to hold a MEGALEAGUE as a fitting send off to Cardigan Richard. We would also state this has nothing to do with the clubs relegation to the bucket & spade league (again) which we accepted with good grace. Nothing whatsoever. Nope. Nothing. Honestly, didn’t even think about it.

Quizzing for a wee while, lost my enthusiasm.   In other news though there will be a cup comp starting next week.  Format to be decided, questions to be well erm ridiculous.

Weak. Deciding the format before starting the cup is very old fashioned.
