We may come. And there may be four of us. So considering the wishy washy commitment from everyone, looks like we could have as many as 11. Or no one.

So sorry, guys. We had unexpected guests that needed a place to crash last night, so we got tied up.
We're in for sure for this next one. I'll be the guy in the "Don't Hassle the Hof" shirt.

How did you guys get on with the Hoffmeister?
bohemka
May 28 2008, 8:31 am
My source tells me they won again. I didn't go due to illness, but my girlfriend and her colleagues formed their own team: AND LOST. That'll teach 'em.

May 28 2008, 9:37 am
The special round next week, I believe, is Gilmore Girls. Unfortunately I won't be there to astound you with my wealth of Gilmore Girls knowledge. Will probably be back the week after.
We managed 9 points on the Hasselhoff round.
JodieJo
May 28 2008, 12:43 pm
Has anyone every watched Gilmore Girls? lol
Can def say i'll know nothing next week on the special subject unless theres a wiki page!!!

I can't make next week cause I will be in London.

Sorry I couldn't make it

An unforeseen situation came up at work, and I wasn't in town the entire day. Hope y'all had fun... I'll make it back to the pub quiz one of these days.
ferkel
Jun 4 2008, 8:01 am
Well we got 2nd and 3rd places...
No quiz for 3 weeks!
Anyone take notice of the special round for next time (in a month)?
For those who thought I was joking...
The word "agoraphobia" is an English adaptation of the Greek words agora (αγοÏ?ά) and phobos (φόβος), and literally translates to "a fear of the marketplace."(Source: Wikipedia)
Oh, and check out the size of Crete here:

JodieJo
Jun 4 2008, 8:28 am
i think she decided not to take Jons (he guy that always sits at the bar) suggestion of Liverpool FC the 1970's -80's thank god.
So there will be no special round so she can use Disney again it she wants

Hopefully we'll all meet up for drinks though in the next three weeks.
Ferkel i changed the sub line as the 2nd is a Wednesday not a Tuesday - or at least thats what my work calender says!
JodieJo
Jun 4 2008, 8:31 am
Also John on our team said Crete is a Independant State and not part of the Greek islands apparently, he must have the same sorce as the quiz master
ferkel
Jun 4 2008, 11:07 am
I'm not sure about that. If he means independant state in the sense of nation. In this case, maybe we are actually talking about Cyprus. I mean Cyprus is clearly not part of Greece and not eligible.
Talking about states as subdivisons of a country, I would say that there isn’t a Greek equivalent of a state that contains all the greek islands. Rhodos is an Agean island and Corfu, Kefalonia, etc. are Ionian. That said, I don’t know exactly how the “state� boundaries go.
For me Crete is an Island, part of Greece and very large, so is a better answer. In any case we were 8 or 9 points behind 1st place so it does not matter at all.
Bonus point: largest island in the world?
JodieJo
Jun 4 2008, 3:35 pm
you know me i have no idea about Greek Islands, just telling you Johns arguement from last night and he got it right.
Largest Island in the World i'd say Greenland as Australia is classed as a continent, how did i do Quiz Mistress?

Something along the lines of: Which is the largest Greek island?

to be fair i think i've heard the largest island question at a quiz somewhere, as i only retain useless info normally!

Jodie Jo,
Im not real new to Mannheim only new to its color. And I dont think im as young as you ladies are. But I noticed you do get together. Any chance I might be able to meet up with you guys/ I live in Mannheim, but not real good with finding things around here.
ferkel
Jun 5 2008, 2:36 pm
Hi there! Our get-togethers are not limited by age (or gender)... when the quiz is on we tend to meet in Murphy's law most Tuesdays, the (continental) European football championships will be conflicting with this for the next three weeks so we will probably venture to a beer garden or two in MA or HD instead! Everyone welcome

Jodie Jo, yes I have heard the island question a couple of times before too...

Jun 5 2008, 2:42 pm
It would be great to get together with you guys. Will you let me know. I also have a yahoo address...dshorthorns@yahoo.com

I haven't quite been able to get to the Pub quiz the past few times due to work commitments... lemme know about the upcoming, if any, biergarten events in MA / HD
JodieJo
Jun 9 2008, 1:42 pm
Are there any plans for this week as there is no quiz?
we could meet in a beer garden somewhere, as i very much doubt the other smaller irish pubs as doing quizes either!
OEG Bahnhof near the Neckar in Mannheim is quiet nice to sit in th sun there.
