[Misc] NSC Quiz League 2020- Autumn Season

[Eeyore]

Questions to follow this evening. You will have till Friday this week as they are a bit later.

 

[kevo]

The rule has now been made tighter and evenly applied. The specific rule had not been advised to players, but as the direction of your results was unaffected it was still applied. Thus your answer which would only have been correct if I had requested the lead singer of the Icicle Works would have been correct. An extra point for naming their most popular single 'Kevo is a wonderful whinger'.

The fact I actually mentioned Neal McNabb's nickname in my answer would surely indicate I meant the former Bolton and Brighton midfield dynamo, not the lead singer of the Icicle Works. What's the betting I get relegated on goal difference?

You won't as your point has now been awarded as there was an inconsistency discovered on the score audit..

I suspect you'll be relegated anyway. So don't worry about the goal difference thing.

This week's offering.

By the end of Friday folks.

For clarity, the full name rule has kicked in. Names of individuals must be correct in full, although spelling errors are fine.

Did I get the point awarded too? Mrs Earle even thought I said Neal when I was going through my answers!

Yes, you were another one to answer with 'Ian'. You've gained a draw in one of your games now (with [MENTION=20527]studio150[/MENTION]).

I've had to apply the strict rule from next round to avoid accusations of subjective decisions. It should applied from the start of this season but I found there were inconsistencies and I was still being lax so put it forward to the new round of games.

Thanks for that and I prefer the strict approach going forward. Perhaps I should drop out of the music threads during quiz season

Roll up, roll up....

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Dammit, I forgot sorry.
Let me do a bury and fall out of the league please

 

[PWA]

IN?

 

[Eeyore]

IN?

Too late for this season, alas. I can't find a way of fairly bringing you in without affecting previous scores.

 

[Eeyore]

Coldean Seagull's demise means the team is replaced by 'Another Mighty Bye'

All previous results have resulted to a nil score so any defeats have now become victories for his opponent. Thus the table has changed a bit.

There is a potential, belatedly realised, problem with question 11 (as highlighted by a set of answers sent in)

Question 11 refers to the previous FULL TIME manager and not anyone in a caretaker role.

Thanks to [MENTION=20527]studio150[/MENTION] for pointing this out. You have a point for that question.

 

[Frutos]

Just sent mine in - a mixed bag for me, some I knew straight off, some I remembered/worked out, some stabs in the dark and two that I could have been guessing until Christmas 2086 and never got!

One in particular I will be stunned if anyone gets, having now looked it up!

 

[jessiejames]

Unless, of course, others have the same struggle.

Ok with world cups and Euros, but European league football is a struggle. During lockdown I recorded the world cup history from catch up so that has helped, especially with 2 of the questions, at least I know I have 2 correct answers.
