FFS Tynie. Have you and The Cardi signed a non-proliferation pact? I'd have thought the opportunity to explain BS on the thread was a tap in for you. 8 for Wednesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sir, did you think the difference between 2 and S was in the scenario of a B meaning bronze? I’m fairly new to this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) I've spent the last 2 bloody hours trying to sort out the cup and my computer crashed. Soooo angry... Anyway, here are the correct answers. In which year was the Scottish Reformation, when Scotland split from the Roman Catholic church? NJ2 decried the question with a "Religion, lot of pish" and got the answer suitably wrong. Quite a lot of teams got the right answer: 1560 Fish is wildly associated with the band Marillion. How old is he? AFJ gets no bonus points for knowing his real name, Derek Dick. NJ2 and Tynierose described his work as "pish" yet got the correct answer. 60 How many Roman emperors made up the Julio-Claudian dynasty? Well done to Bully Wee Villa who managed to name them all as well, again for hee-haw bonus points. The correct answer is 5. In which year were the Hells Angels founded? 1948 In degrees celsius, what is the boiling point of everyone's favourite alcohol, ethanol? 78.24C ... one team guessed 20C which is a tad low since all your drinks would evaporate! Alan Clarke's last film, "The Firm" dealt with football violence in the UK. In what year was it released? 1989 The Scottish Junior Leagues are split into three regions, West, East and North. In total, how many member clubs are there currently? (when I say currently, I mean whenever someone last updated Wikipedia) Some wild answers here ... 131 is the correct answer In total, how many episodes of Australian police drama Blue Heelers were made? "the f**k is this shit" ... "never heard of it" ... "FFS. who knows" ... "Australians are weird" ... "absolutely shite program" "50, before they realised noone was watching"... safe to say, you all enjoyed this question! Correct answer was 510 How many countries lie on the equator? (this includes countries where the equator passes through their territorial waters but doesn't actually pass through land). Only 13 countries Of the 50 state capitals of the United States of America, how many start with the letter A? Albany, Annapolis, Atlanta, Austin and Augusta... = 5 How many books would you find in the standard King James Bible? Sunday school obviously paid off for AFJ, who got it spot on.80... 39 in the Old Testament, 27 in the New, and the "bonus" bit, the Apocrypha, has 13 How many prime numbers would you find between 0 and 1000? Alang1993 actually sat and worked out the correct answer. How long did that take? The correct answer was 168 How many Academy Award nominations for Best Actor has Nicolas Cage received? Two, one of which he won. In which year was the TV series The West Wing first released in the USA? 1999 In which episode of Neighbours did Helen Daniels die? Can't believe nobody got this right. It was 2,965 I would have liked to give every team their exact score. But as I said, the PC crashed and life is too short to be doing all that again. If anyone wants to do the honours, be my guest But anyway, there was a clear leader as he got an amazing 9 questions spot on. Step forward Mr Cup Specialist @Eednud ...

Did you decide to just ignore me? It must have taken me at least a minute to guess lots of hopelessly wrong answers, only to be ignored.

Mark Connolly Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 4 for Wednesday. I didn't enter the cup because I didn't understand what was going on. Now with the explanation and the answers, I know I made the right decision. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Er, you didn't get any right, so I'm guessing you didn't win. If it's any consolation, that was an utter pain in the arse to do. I think Mark Connolly had the right idea giving it a wild berth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to my big pal @Audaces Fortuna Juvatnor to my esteemed colleague @Cardinal Richelieubut in what sort of papist/voodoo society does 39+27+13 add up to 80? Also. what buffoon would include the 'extra canonical books' in the 1611 version of the King James Bible? BTW there were 14 of such books. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
