Talking about Gaming the Irish Way!

Feb 5, 2014

It's our 5th annual Pub Quiz! My God, we've been doing this for a while now. I call it a "Radio Quiz" in the opening, but pay no attention to that. One extra point to anyone who sends proof they did the quiz in a Pub. Also, it's worth 50 yo-yos to the winner.

We will post the Answers podcast, along with the name of the winner, in March.

1.48: Didn't realise I had such strong opinions about the fetid, sweating deviants that wallow around EVE

2.40: I don't understand how either sports or maths work.

3.15: Tom Lehrer is basically awesome. You've probably heard this one.

3.49: Seriously, Chess Boxing is a real thing.

4.09: Bareback Opening, wha wha wha

4.50: I consider chess a terrible game, because I'm truly awful at it

5.02: Four Sarcasm Points awarded for that one

5.24: xkcd comic of how to play optimal tic-tac-toe (or naughts and crosses... or x's and o's)

5.51: Oisin is being very kind at this point

6.58: Thank God! We've started numbering questions again.

8.21: Bonus question! Why in God's name are we doing Nixon questions? Answers delivered in a cardboard box to the White House. We'll let you know if you get it right.

9.12: The penny finally drops! I was TOTALLY confused up until that point.

9.20: Yes, so the notes said “only war”, where they should have said “Only War”. Still, no excuse on my part!

11.11: I can read, honest.

12.11: This is the most in-jokey in-joke that has ever appeared on the show. The saga of Space Marine and Mage is at least 8 years old, and is mostly centred around a fictional 80s TV show for kids created by mad men. The theme tune we begin singing at 12.13 is not suitable for a family-friendly show such as ours!

14.00: Pro-tip; they do not

14.33: Super-cute and Super-deformed do not belong in the same sentence together

16.20: I acquired the skills “Make Steve Guttenberg a Star” and “Cover Suspicious Stain” from these two jobs

16.27: From which Oisin acquired the skills “Rum, Sodomy and the Lash” and “Coitus Interruptus”.

19.04: “Ladies” count – 2

20.29: “Ladies” count – 4

22.50: “Ladies” count – 6

24.24: ALL HAIL HUMBUG, TAKER OF BISCUITS!

25.03: Why must you ruin my dreams, Eoin?

25.51: Evidently the answer to my earlier question is that we can see through time and knew that a Nixon question was coming up.

26.44: “Ladies” count – 8
