Wilde Quiz #38 - points & pics

Apologies for the delay, more pressing matters demanded my attention. And before I spoil half my May Day with this week's Yogi Round (thanks so mcuh, my little ponies :P) here are last week's points, and some photos. The rest is up here for your viewing/downloading pleasure.

Happy MayDay to y'all.. see (some of) you on Thursday3 May for WQ #39. It's booked out but if you phone the Oscar's on Wednesday or Thursday - there might be cancellations (Buggers?). If you're in the book and can't or don't want to attend - please cancel asap, we have a waiting list already.

Sorry peops, blogger is annoying me, can only upload 1 pic at the time.Don't have that kind of time though - check the link above or the facebook group album.

Nach dem Spiel ist vor dem Spiel

And thus Champions League Season 4 kicked off. New faces, new names (or 'nu' names in one case :P.. brilliant surorise guests :D and much fun ...
Below points, pics (all 43 here), and book for the next 3 weeks. Yogi topic has already been chosen by Niendorf's Angels, and is definitely going to be fun :D
I's off into the rest of the smashing weekend (if the Magpies continue to fly high we won't have to shift our Thursday nights in favour of Europa League because Champions League games are on Tuesdays and Wednesdays :D)
Have a good one, see you soon :D

Champions League Season 3 - the final stats

So - as promised here are the points, tables & assorted statistical somethings. From season 4 on (as of 19 April) average (total points divided by quizzes played, at least 6 weeks played) will decide who get the cup. More on that and other new rules as soon as I've thought it through and typed it out in English & German.

New round, new rules

For those who weren't in last Thursday (or weren't listening).. as of week 37 there are a few changes.
The entry fee is now 5€ per table. Good for those who play with 6, not so good for teams of 2 or 3. Non-negotiable though. And teams with more than 7 players have to split up, there's not enough space in most corners for more than 5 per table anyway... and each team should have at least a modicum of 'personal' space.
Bookings can only be made for 3 weeks in advance, by either getting your name in the book on quiz night or phoning Oscar Wilde. First come first seated. That way every team has a chance of getting one of the 'good' tables once in a while (if they're fast enough).. those who can't live without 'their' tables.... see previous post.
Not turning up without cancelling leads to loss of all other reservations.

And this was the book on Friday (not sure it's the current one though - Oscar's staff are the only ones who can tell you :).. if you want in.. you know the drill.

After the Champions League is before the Champions League

So.. finally getting round to leaving at least pics and some sort of round-up here. (points & stats & stuff on Monday.. my little statistician gremlin is away for the weekend and I'm done with figures :)

Anyroad - WQ#36 was fun if a bit long (we'll return to the usual 8.15 till 10.50 p.m. rhythm next week).. and the new (and already hotly debated) Champions are Team Alpha Strong. Objections legit or not, the decision stands.. and the suggestions, requests (?) and ideas for changes have been taken on board.. I'll post all thoughts that have been thrown my way so far soon.. here and on facebook. You can discuss them and add your own ideas and suggestions and I'm sure we'll find a solution that is viable for most (those who can't live with it .... I hear Murphy's have a great Karaoke night on Thursdays :P :)

Anyroad - for now some of the the pics, soon the points & stats. (all 40 pics are here)

Pre- & post-Easter pics

Finally sorted photobucket.. here are some 30+ pics of last week's WQ 35 (some 40+ more to come next week) and all 47+ of last night's Easter Eggstravaganza.
Happy viewing/downloading :)

A change is gonna come

Book for the next two weeks.. there will be changes that might affect attendance and reservation so no long-term plans yet. Still - if you want to witness next week's Wildely anticipated Champions League Final - phone Oscar Wilde to get your name one on of the remaining 3 tables.
Of you're on the list and can't make it - cancel as early as poss, there will be other teams waiting to their butts on your seats :)

Egg Fights and Wilde Easter Eggstacy

As promised elsewhere, the points (almost typed 'pints') and pics of last night's eggstremely funny Veranstaltung.. and the preview for new week's Champions League Final. Which is about as tight an affair as Jamie Rednapp's trousers.

Rest of the photos - for now - in the facebook group. Eventually in a photobucket folder for your downloading pleasure :)
And on the back of a lovely, if slightly boring game that Newcastle comfortably won 2-0 I'm off into the Easter sunset.... Happy Easter to y'all, have a lovely long weekend and rest your brains before next week's totally un-boring Champions League Final. There are at least 3 teams competing for the cup (yep, ??? have more than just a mathematical chance of regaining what once was theirs :) (AAMOF - they never got to hold this little beaut ... go for gold, guys!!!!)

We Have A Problem... no more

Finally found the time to put up last week's pics & points.... but first - thanks to all Anwesende for a fun night (no one seems to have had more fun though than new team MARLON. Giggles galore.)
We also say good bye and thank you for many weeks of loyal and knowledgeable attendance to our Estonian friends of team WE HAVE A PROBLEM. Thanks for playing with us, bon voyage, and you're very welcome back any time you're in town :D
And now the short version of stats & stuff.

Effing blogger is driving me mad, can't upload more than one pic at a time so a ton of photographs is - for now - on facebook.
Yogi right for WQ#36 goes to MARLON (to be sent by Easter Sunday, 9pm).
Here's the current book (Monday 2 April) - it's getting full so book you table BY PHONING OSCAR WILDE. I will ignore all attempts to send me text. fb messages or emails to reserve.

I look forward to seeing you, and you, and you on Easter Thursday.. we'll have silly games, and a wee bit of chocolate, and some Osterwasser, and lots of fun. Questions will - predominantly - revolve around eggs, bunnies, Easter days throughout the centuries.. and some silly stuff I haven't though through yet :)
If we don't meet on Thursday - get ready for THE GRANDE FINALE on 12 April, 8.15pm. Champions League is tighter than ever before on the last day. And remember to book your table :)
