Runaway winner in the 2014 BigFooty Quiz

CONGRATS – to Scubaveg

[well until maybe the doping/testing results are in vosstheboss ]

And with the win comes the spoils…

 

[Skoob]

What's the deal with my ranking???
I think you'll find I am 13th. Please let the record correctly show that I know more than Haso *.

* Well, guessed better anyway, let's not squabble over how points were come by.

 

[dlanod]

WTF... tied for second last year and now tied for third! I might have to stop assuming my own mediocrity in these.

I do like BigCat2 and his fall from winner to third last.

2nd to 3rd, is a serious downward slide. You'll be mediocre in no time.

How the four asterisks did I finish 5th? Must have guessed well!

I've been participating in this Quiz for three or four years now, and I think I can safely say that this was by quite some distance the best Bigfooty Lions Footy Quiz ever. I'm not saying it was perfect, clearly there were one or two things that need to be looked at and probably a few questions that were unfair or innapropriate but on the whole I would like to congratulate blynd_freddie on the Quiz as a whole.

Having said all that let's see who finished on the podiu... oh look at that, how embarrasing... well i never.

 

[Fatcat08]

WTF?

How the heck did I come second? Pretty sure last time I looked i was almost last? Looks like this was rigged, and I'm all for it!

Are these part of the Lions' plans to have bigger name players in 2015? Cunning.

Yep I've been all Green's and Adcock's [sixes & sevens] since Longer left.

WTF... tied for second last year and now tied for third! I might have to stop assuming my own mediocrity in these.

I do like BigCat2 and his fall from winner to third last.

You were the only person to correctly select Rockys Brownlow votes and only worth 5pts!

I think if I'm able to run this again next year some questions that don't have a range should be adequately rewarded due to the degree of difficulty.

Happy to take on-board any meaningful suggestions from posters - what you liked/disliked.
