At last!

Here are the World Cup Answers

01) Jules Rimet Trophy - homealone
02) Pickles (a dog) - Nugget
03) Brazil - homealone
04) Stolen, never to be found again - Aragorn
05) National Football Museum, Preston - Aragorn
06) Lothar MatthÃÃâ€*’¤us( 25), West Germany/Germany (1982-1998) - gazzae
07) Turkey - homealone
08) Gerd MÃÃâ€*’¼ller(14 ), West Germany (1970-1974) - gazzae
09) Brazil, South Korea - Aragorn
10) World Cup Willie, Goleo IV - Nugget

11) West Germany - homealone
12) 4:2 - homealone
13) Wembley Stadium - Nugget
14) Geoff Hurst(3), Martin Peters - Aragorn
15) Bobby Moore - homealone
16) Alf Ramsey - homealone
17) USSR - Nugget
18) Switzerland - homealone
19) Helmut Haller, Wolfgang Weber - homealone
20) Portugal - gazzae

21) Gordon Banks - homealone

gazzae (3)

So, Nugget and homealone are equal first!

What shall we do? Award it to Nugget 'cos he got the most answers without Google or to homealone because he was handicapped (no pictures). Perhaps we should just go with Gaz 'cos we are more likely to get another quiz next week ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

:LOL: the quizmasters decision is final :)

- good choice of theme, whatever the outcome, altis :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, I'm officially not going to be on next Friday 'cos I've got the day off, so I will happily stand aside and let the weeman win (hur hur - you lucky little man :D )

Good quiz altis :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, since there is no penalty shootout, I'll declare it officially a draw but we'll let homealone do the honours next week.

Landslide victory for the North-East though!!!

Sorry to all those who aren't football mad and were looking for more general knowledge questions. I just thought it was timely.

PS, Gaz:
Those pictures were hosted on my NTL webspace. Is this no good to you? How could I have done it better?

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, I wouldn't call it a landslide - more a 'can't be bothered with real work today' :D

EDIT: Mind you, I'm quite impressed with the amount I know about '66, bearing in mind I wasn't born for another 9 years :disturbd:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

ok, I'll accept my punishment - I may not be able to do it until Friday evening, though. I'll firm up a time during the week.

Thanks altis, the picture thing affects pretty much all embedded (linked)pictures, websense must look for the <img> tags, wheras attached pictures are ok - but that wouldn't have fitted for the quiz format, so I don't think there is much you could of done. Appreciate the concern, though :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, the avatars and, for that matter, much of this website is made up of images. Perhaps it only blocks those that are hosted on a different site or maybe it's just stuff on homepage.ntlworld.com.

Can you see this image?

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

yes I can - you may be right about 'homepage' being filtered.

I count myself pretty lucky to have access from work, so a few restrictions are expected. It is sometimes quite funny with what it considers 'adult content', often there is no relevance at all :)

- thanks altis, appreciate it.

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Missed it (but I wouldn't have done very well anyway) :D

Good quiz though Altis & well done Gaz and Nug (should have gone to a penalty shoot out) ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I can personally guarantee that I'd have missed 5 out of 5 ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I think this is the first time I've been glad I've missed a Friday Quiz :D

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I'm thinking next Friday 26th May, 1900 hrs :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I would have got the first three right but only because I watched the documentary about it earlier in the week.;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Looks good for me :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Right, I'm going to try to stick with this time, but there is a chance it may have to be delayed/postponed.

Sorry I can't be more informative, than that, at the moment, but it is depends on what someone else will be doing, and they haven't confirmed yet.

I'll post an update as soon as I know more... :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Sounds like you may be going out tonight :)

Looking forward to it, even if it is tomorrow in the end :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

It is that I have to meet up with a friend & I'm not sure on the timing. I've just spoken to him & he reckons he can make it between 5 & 7, in which case we are still good to go, for 7.

- I'll try for today, if I can, even if it is a little later than intended. The only other thing that can go wrong is that I've finished off the questions at work & emailed myself with them, at home. Sods law says that email will be down ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

okey dokey, my friend has been & gone & we are on course for a 7pm start for this weeks quiz, if anyone wants to join in :tu:
