lets hit another pub quiz next week
JodieJo
Jan 30 2008, 1:28 pm
Does anyone know where another one definately is? what day and what time?

So, what happened... were you cheating? did you win?

There were two groups. One group would have come third but the quizmaster said somebody saw them doing something on their handy so they were disqualified.

i don't think anyone remembers the name
as far as going next week, i think if another place has one on tuesday we should check it out. if not, i guess we'll have to go back to the evil quizmaster since tuesday seems to work for everyone.
oh and the specialist topic is "historically significant people"

Well, I have been yearning to branch out for a while. The quiz is OK at Murphy's, but I really don't like the food.
- wednesday there is
http://www.mclarens.de/entertainment_pubquiz.php- mondays there is
http://www.oreillys-mannheim.de/events1.htmlThere is also Stonehenge, which I really hope is not supposed to be Irish, but I could not see anything there.
I know that JJ is busy those evenings and I have (irregular) monday meetings and also really need to get myself to proper German lessons soon!
PS: She isn't evil, you people are just dishonest! I'm glad I wasn't there for your disgrace. (Ducks for cover for second time in two posts!)
PPS yes, I know you were only using it to add up, does no one believe in mental arithmetic these days?
PPPS I also know that there are sometimes groups that _really_ cheat there!
PPPPPPPPPPPS any correlation between the cheating conviction and the return of Sunstriped and IAdoreOlives?

i don't know if everyone can switch to mondays or wednesdays. that's the problem we had with finding a day for the regular meetups.
that's true. she's just mean. or almost always in a bad mood. i wonder she even does the quiz.
no correlation
ferkel
Jan 30 2008, 8:28 pm
Come on now, she isnt that bad - I like her! Every quiz has wrong or badly phrased questions occasionally and smartarses (e.g., me) who like to prove themselves right by a technicality even when they are wrong!
Great to hear that you are back BTW

Boy! I don´t show up for one evening and you guys get disqualified!

Sounds like I missed quite a bit of drama. I can´t make the next two weeks, I won´t be in town.
Now although Murphy´s food isn´t all that great, and the quizmistress (*snicker*) seems to be in a somewhat foul mood more often than not, my vote is for Tuesdays @ Murphy´s... just the convenience factor more than anything else.

Hey, I know the McClarens quiz is more like a quiz league which is now coming to a end, so i doubt they'll let us join.
As its suppose to be the Mannheim drinks next week, we could just go somewhere else for dinner and drinks on the tues. to give the quiz a break for a week.
Next week i have no german so i can do any night apart from monday when they are sticking the big fat needle in my foot!

No Monday for me also as i will lying drunk in some side alley in Koln
Any other day of the week and place is fine.
JodieJo

if we want to eat somewhere, we need to organise it in advance and book a table

Jan 31 2008, 5:46 pm
I am basically out of here. Thanks again for making this place feel like home the past few months. I will check every now and then what you guys are up to. May even be back in May for a week or two (sounds like real possibility), although will be up in the Ruhr valley most of that time. But will make a plan to be here on some Tuesday night. Enjoy Germany!

JodieJo
Feb 2 2008, 4:59 pm
I just doing something on another day other than tuesday this week as its fasching, and places will be busy.
sunstriped
Feb 3 2008, 5:39 pm

JodieJo
Feb 4 2008, 9:51 am
sorry guys i can't do tomorrow night, we're going to a fasching techno party in the city. but if people are up for doing something on another night this week let me know.

JodieJo
Feb 5 2008, 9:21 am

bit of a random question - does Murphy's Law still do fantastic sunday roast dinners??
used to go there all the time when we were students in Frankfurt/Mannheim back in 2001... always a good craic in there
JodieJo
Feb 6 2008, 9:51 am
I've never been there or worked on a sunday, but the chefs are still the same.
JodieJo
Feb 11 2008, 10:32 am
