Learned League

Wonder if people got credit if they put My Bodyguard.

And glad I got credit for writing Davies for Q5.

I put Farraday for Q5 knowing darned well it was wrong.

At first, for some reason, I wanted to put Colette for Q1 until I remembered it wasn't a pseudonym. But then I got it right.

I ended up putting the MCWA for that one.

lol, i also put Farraday knowing it was wrong! It's weird how our brains work!

Yeah, Dolly was the only person in the Bodyguard question that I recognized.

Apparently Davy was an assistant to Faraday (sez the person who answered "pilot").

I cannot *believe* I got Q3, 5 and 6 right today but muffed a layup like Q1.

it was my understanding that all noteworthy scottish british inventions of the 18th and 19th centuries were made by either watt or macadam

Davy was Cornish, apparently.

Also glad I didn't accidentally put Humphrey Ocean.

Apparently Davy was an assistant to Faraday (sez the person who answered "pilot").

Wow, I won yesterday's match 7-0. I think that's my first perfect defensive scoring. Pretty amazing considering I only answered three questions, but I got all three correct (3, 5 and 6).

i finally got my first 9(6) of the season yesterday

Cool. Are you deliberately shying away from using llama lingo for that?

i don't remember the llama lingo tbh.

Drinking the beer.

hmm

I have never heard of William Wegman and assigned 3 points, cost me the match.

tbh you should feel a certain pride in that

never learn who anne geddes is either

I figured the W was important and the only W-breed I could think of was "wiener dog", so I guess dachschund.

In response to the Valorant question, my ex texted me, "Glad I listened when you talked about video games"

Against all advice I googled. I should've listened to you.

I usually have a couple of 9(6) days per season, but I actually had a streak of five straight from MD11-MD15. Definitely got lucky on a few questions. It ended on Friday when I went 1(2). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

big 6(3)-5(4) win yesterday

After having the highest CAA among the top 10, I'm facing only one opponent with a win % over 0.500 in this last week. Top 3 is out of the question (third place is 11 points ahead of me), but after being borderline C/D all season, my spot in the C Rundle for next season should be reasonably assured.

i'll be joining you in c shortly; i'd need to win out to get out of the basement in B and that ain't happening.

three forfeits this season! where's my head at.

currently in fifth but i don't think i got it done today

friend who invited me is in first, but at least i beat him this season

Are you in Keystone?

Horizon

i have a question.

Put it on the Comish's desk!

i went for "bullish" instead of "sanguine" and feel like that's a fair estimate

Actually I may vacate a spot for you in C as I may be demoted to D.

i am unconvinced that the good, the bad and the ugly is a prequel

i would agree with you!

second "the good the bad and the ugly" question this season!

Right, was wondering about that.

*phew*

I also guessed "bullish" and thought it was a decent guess, but Thorsten had other ideas.

A string of losses at the end dropped me into the E range for my rookie rundle. Despite hopes to maintain my position in the D range, I couldn't clinch it.

This was such a nice experience. Every morning, I looked forward to checking yesterday's match results, current standings, and puzzling over questions. Even felt a little disappointed when there weren't questions to answer on weekends. Really looking forward to next season.

i had the feeling that i always end up right near the middle of the pack by the end of each season, so i checked and i have a .501 career winning percentage

can't believe I'm crashing into C on account of my 3 forfeits this season, somewhat grumpy with myself

Samesies! Mine is .497.

Based on my performance in the first two-thirds of the season, I thought I was going to have a career-high QPct this season, but I didn't do nearly as well in the final stretch. I gather from the message board that this was not an uncommon experience.

I feel like I got more correct as the season went, terrible beginning better muddle/ending.

Getting promoted to C! One point away from first in my rundle.

I'm really pleased with how I did (as I expected, I solidified my standing and will move to C), especially considering that I stumbled out of the gate. I had the hardest schedule among the top 10 for much of the season (except at the end, where the combined winning percentage of my opponents was under 0.400), though I still had a winning record against players above 0.500 (7-5-3).

absolute belly flop, will pretend this season never happened.

beat the top two finishers, lost to the last-place person. so it goes

last four seasons i've finished 10th, 7th, 9th, 8th

I miss it :(
