And some more Mr Hog has asked me to post on his behalf.


Thanks Baboo for posting for me and Hoglette as we can't access this for some reason (can read but not post). People will notice we tried to be clever by choosing tie breaks that didn't add up but as everyone else seems to be doing it properly then please ignore these Boogie and go for the real sum of our predictions!

No one predicting that Oxford lose.

Several with Ox scoring 1 goal.

Mooro with knockout blow on crowd.

Boris close but not close enough.

Well done Mooro.

Bit of a newbie question, but I thought a cascade meant you had to get the first question right to score any points?

It's a fair question: with a strict cascade, you might argue that if all get question one wrong, it should go straight to the tiebreak. We seem to have a convention, though, that in those circumstances you drop down to the second question.
