Aubrey Maturin Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Some people dream about winning a final, the glory, the honour. Not me... I dream about getting a tie with just two players in it for once 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBo10 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Ditto Tynieness. In my case beating one opponent is hard enough never mind two month after month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 39 teams, now? Time for four divisions, I reckon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were up to me, we'd go back to a 39 team 1 superleague setup. Just for a bit of nostalgia, this is how the very first league table looked... things have changed quite a lot since then (except BWV languishing near the bottom)...

Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I'm not the best educated, but I'm not so sure King Cnut the Great ever existed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 Eh, King Cnut was real was he not? And the whole point of him trying to turn back the tide was that he was proving that even a king couldn't do that? No? Oh well... So after day 4 of the league, let's take a squiz at the leagues.... MSU currently sits atop the pile, although AFJ is striving for his first gold. WRK is missing in action, and Tynieness's coat is on a decidedly shoogly peg. Meanwhile, in the SWL, the tactic of delaying quiz duties until the Archers appears to be paying dividends. Livi Lion is also MIA. Supermik is still the leading light in the BHL, and Wilkinson is impressing in his debut season. What excitement. I was inundated with offers of updating the final league tables / setting the play-off question tomorrow. However, I reviewed all the applications and dismissed them all. So, I'll probably get round to it on Sunday morning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cnut was known as Canute in the UK - I was being silly as the Danish version is a misspelling of a ladygarden. Incidentally, doesn't a tied position revert to lowest scores if the highest scores are equal, or have we changed? Not that I'll win anyway................. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviLion Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 6/10 for Wednesday, knew the movie, Bulgaria and debut album. 5/10 Thursday, knew the tennis, flag, director and boy band guessed the boy band. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then teams lobbied for a change to make it highest, 2nd highest etc. It's all in the P+B League Rulebook (revision 251 or something like that) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Maturin Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Five, the lack of boyband questions, not reading them properly and generally being a bit shit this week has secured my relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
