h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

miz-www, McKay above has answered your question succinctly. This is exactly what I'll be doing. In the meantime could you tell him that I will award him a Pools Panel selection for this week, and that he needs to get himself a proper ISP


Meisere's PP stuff is:

West Brom 2-1 Portsmouth
Newcastle 1-0 West Ham
Liverpool 2-2 Sunderland
Crystal Palace 0-2 Plymouth
Southampton 0-0 Norwich
With no additional scorer points.

Demon Drawer is right, he is one of the few players this week to pick up any points for getting the scorer right. But then in a week when of the 100 outfield players who took to the pitch, only five of them could be bothered to score a goal, this is hardly surprising. The net result has been an, on average, poor scoring week.

Not that this fact will stop one of our number bursting out in wild celebration. Well done Master B, you've tied for first place with a decidedly mediocre 8 points

(Note to Orcus: Well done yourself for getting a share of first place . The reason that B is getting all of the attention is that he tops the weekly winners list so infrequently that it becomes a point of special note in the weeks that he pulls it off.)

Ooh, I noticed I'd got most of the results right but didn't think I'd get the top points for the week.

Don't worry Greydesk, I'm sure Master B now has a serious rival in me for the wooden spoon awards

Ooh...I'll settle for that.

I knew I'd had a pretty solid week in terms of results, but nothing that special.
