Leftover limerick & prediction points


Sooooo. In time for the Eggstra Special Easter Quiz - bonus points earned at Paddy's Day Quiz for Limericks and Newcastle score predictions. Of course only for the teams who turn up tomorrow ;)

Newcastle Europa League Last 16 Round against ФК "Анжи" Махачкала predictions - 1 point each for Bedebow, DAQ and Cannonballs (result correct but score wrong)

PD Limericks - the panel of judges (that being Gemma, Cliona, Noel, Becca & La MerryKwizMiz) awarded the following places/points, based on rhyme, rythm, reason, included words and overall Paddy'sDayLimerickiness.

Winner (4 points) BEDEBOW!!
Vorfreude
Wie schön ist's zusammenzukommen
Mit viel Bier & weiteren Wonnen
In green, like a Leprechaun child
Here tonight at the Oscar Wilde
Wird besoffen St. Paddy's Day begonnen.

Second Place (3 points) DAQ
On Paddy's Day I was drunken on beer
So on my way home I drove into a deer.
Some guys in green came,
now I'm in jail, what a shame!
Next 5 nights I'll be staying here.

Third Place (would have been 2 points, theoretically) Die 3 ???
Dicht gemacht am Paddy's Day
Aufgewacht am 1st of May.
Die grüne Hose stand noch offen
Gute Nacht - war ich besoffen.
Geh mir wech mit Bier - ey!

Fourth place (1 point) Cannonballs
An Paddy's Day hab ich Frank getroffen
Wir tranken viel Bier und waren besoffen.
In der Nacht gab's viel Lärm und Geschrei
Und morgens um 3 kann ne grüne Minna vorbei
Die Bettelei nach Restalkohol macht uns betroffen.

Hors de competition, handed in long after the final whistle - Tayto
As Paddy's Day turned into night
And I'd drunken every beer in sight
My liver turned green
As I puked up my spleen
And my abdomen turned into shite.

So in a nutshell - Easter Eggstravaganza starts with 5 points for Bedebow, 4 points for DAQ and 3 points for Cannonballs.

Grab a seat

This is the latest BOOK - still a few left for the Easter Eggstravaganza, and there is always a chance that teams cancel last minute, or just don't turn up. Phone Oscar Wilde 288 1616 if you want in (or out)

Champions League Interlude - WQ#83

Wedged between the Paddy's Day and Easter Specials, WQ#83 brought less silly game action but more points for those who are still competing in the Champions League,
Below all 15 pics, all points & the current Champions League Table. DAQ, Fragezeichen & Bedebow now have their prerequisite 6 games and can now start working on improving their Streichergebnis ;)
Some nice new teams we had too, thank you for a fun (and mostly well-behaved) night, and congrats to Howdy Rowdy who took 4th place in the first Wilde Quiz. Please do come back ;)
This Thursday is Easter Special Quiz, the Champions League starts into its second half of the season on Thursday 4 April.
Yogi Right for WQ#85 goes to JM2D, you have until Easter Monday 9pm.

Grüner wird's nicht - Ye Wilde Paddy's Day Quiz 2013

Right then, pics and points of what turned out to be a super fun night (and a memorable one if you are a Newcastle fan) despite (or because of) the relatively small number of teams. Image it had been packed.. ;)
Winners Tayto had the distinct advantage of being Irish so no shame for the others ;) and well done Cannonball(s) who won the Pitcher Game.
The Limerick contest winner has been chosen by the Panel of Four (Gemma, Cliona, Noel & MerryKwizMiz) and will be announced in a separate post, along with all the other limericks (like, all 5 ;)
Likewise - all 5 teams who handed in their predictions for the Newcastle game got the victory right (if not the result) and start the Easter Quiz with 2 points (that being O'DAQ, Cannonballs, ???, Bedebow and Buddybrand).
All 27 pictures are up here (and will be in the gallery on Photobucket as soon as I have the time) for now only 'best of'. I have some 20 more but they too will have to wait.
BOOK: I need the reservations for Easter Eggstravaganza by Thursday 21 March at the very latest in order to plan the next special madness edition properly.
Yogi right for WQ#83 on 21 March - Danny Crane. Denkt dran, Sonntag 21.00 Uhr ist Einsendeschluß!!
That said - have a great sunny weekend, see you at the St Patrick's Day Parade on Sunday or one of the next Thursdays :D
Oh, and... QUARTER FINALS!!! Bring on the Portugeezers!!!!

Book for March

Two Wilde Specials coming up - Ye Wilde Paddy's Day Quiz on 14 March and the annual Sweet Easter Eggstravaganza on 28 March. For both we have to buy and prepare things so book your table in time or lose out on two of the bestest nights in the whole quiz year. Phone Oscar's.. now.




Sandokan, Sangiovese, Sans Cissé - Ye Wilde Quiz #81

Another half decent performance by Le Toon, and another busy quiz night with quite a few new faces (some soon on their way to 'regular' status ;)) and the return of teams 'der ersten Stunde'.. interesting mix. Once more Fragezeichen won and reclaimed top spot - nice rollercoaster ride that new season promises to be. One more CL round and then it's Streichergebnisse, at least for 4 teams.
In the meantime though it's time for a break - the annual Paddy's Day Very Special All-Fun&Alcohol edition is upon us. Reserve rechtzeitig, it might get packed. Details on what/how/when/who.. up here soon. Or check out the 2012 and 2011 March posts/pictures.
Here's pics and points and CL table for WQ#81, book separate. Hope you had fun, looking forward to a repeat performance.
Last but not least - Yogi Right for #83 on 21 March goes to Danny Crane - send me at least 3 suggestions by Sunday 17 March. Email or fb message.
