Fine, esteemed Gentlemen of the Bashers,

Please respond on the Blog if you are available for selection this weekend for the Monster Double Header against the Devils.

Obviously the weekend falls on a National Holiday, as well as the SCC touring Japan (and funnily enough the Hot Dogs aren’t playing…)

We currently have 15 definitely available for selection – short of the 22 required.

Response would be greatly appreciated…

Cheers,

Stats

Just to remind everyone that there will be nets as per usual on Thursday – same time (6-8pm) same place (San He Hua Yuan – address on blog).

This will be followed by drinks / tactics / team bonding at the Big Bamboo – Friday is a national holiday so has the makings of a great night…

See you all then

Stats

Another big night. Those missing out – missed out! A big welcome to the various newcomers to the world of Bashers trivia, it’s really not a bad place.

Once again the Drop Bears cleaned up taking a hat-trick (yawn). Another case each of Just Beer goodies for them. Some steady competition in the rest of the pack. Some adjusting to the new innovation of a buzzer round well – others not so – as evidenced by a couple of negative scores. A few new sections, including a Gashers section. One wonders why the WAGS didn’t have the confidence to pick that one as their wildcard. See fellas, even they don’t understand women. They did manage to take home a bottle of Vodka for their efforts though, no doubt they’ll be using that at their next secret meeting in some sordid and secret manner. Ethnicity picked up the JD by a narrow margin, until baseless accusations from I’m Easy had them rightfully ejected and the margin widened. Thanks to Katie (no show again) for shouting everyone a round of Sambucas, very kind of you. Stay tuned for the next quiz – probably just before the break of summer – big things in store for that one. For Statsie the total scores of all teams for each section went as follows; Sciences:175, Arts:270, World:224, China:365, Bashers:340, Gashers: 285. Teams making the wisest wildcard choice: Drop Bears only! Total Points scored: 2022 out of a possible 5500 at an average of just under 289. Best score in a section: Drop Bears with 180 in the China section. Worst: I’m Easy (-11) in the World section.

Final reminder for tonight’s QUIZ @ The Big Bamboo from 7:30 PM. Get in early, get your teams ready as this is going to be a great night!

See you @ The Boo tonight!

Stay Loose.
