Say the link you posted is 2 pages back - that's 8 posters having to go back 2 pages to find it. 8 x 2 = 16. When you subtract the 2 pages you had to go back, that's 14 pages of data I've saved the interweb from using up, thus saving energy and ultimately the environment. I have single-handedly extended the life of the planet - your planet - by asking you to do that for all of us, you ungrateful b*****d. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, this thread continues to buck that trend! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilky1878 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 A quicky chivvy to all those who haven't responded to the June cup quizzes (and those who have responded and I've missed - and not to those that I believe have responded who haven't). [mention=36343]Ross.[/mention] .. [mention=52759]Wilkinson1998[/mention]... [mention=30230]Tynieness[/mention] ... [mention=33079]DeeMan[/mention] ... [mention=37891]WhiteRoseKillie[/mention] ... [mention=17699]G_Man1985[/mention] ... [mention=36704]gkneil[/mention] ... [mention=7957]die hard doonhamer[/mention] Oh, and also to Wilkinson1998 for the play-off question, although I'll cut him a bit of slack cos he probably didn't realise that joining the quiz thread would require so much attention! PM'd them too you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilky1878 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 newcomer Wilkinson1998 finds himself in the play-offs with rumours circulating in the tabloids that he is One for the Watching (in a football-quiz hybrid managerial sense, not in a beastly one). Thanks for clearing that up 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had the power to dock you points. I've never ventured into said Pregnancy / Parenting thread and for good reason. Sounds like a clique-ridden back-slapping bollock-ache. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 With 2 minutes to go before the witching hour there is no quiz posted yet. Will write them a PTTGOYN type email and delay contacting my MP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was next Monday they could have come up with the excuse that it's the Queen's Birthday public holiday, although not in WA where that's today (as it is in NZ) or QLD where it's in October. Anyway to avoid waiting on the lazy p***k at The Oz getting his/her act together and sparing no expense, here's one prepared earlier. From this day in 2014 and 5/10 to start with. Guessed band, VFA (this is what became the VFL then AFL), and bazooka, knew designer and game, stuffed up caves.
