    Remember everyone, answers by pm to myself before 9pm tonight.

    Music and Simpsons round answers tomorrow at lunch, as well as the next (and final) two rounds of questions.

    Its no biggie, but when PMing, if you could just include the answer and not include the question, that would be a good help.

    Thanks and well done to all teams so far!!

    9 Tenerife

    Tenerife, though part of Spain, isn't in Europe, it's in Africa.

    It'd be like saying French Guiana is in Europe because it's part of France, when it's part of South America.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Lads ive said this before for other games. Leave the questions alone during the game.

    Its not 'in' Africa, its near it. As are a lot of European countries.

    The EU considers the Canary Islands part of Europe and the EU as a special territory, so take it up with them.

    9) Where are the highest vineyards in Europe?

    Europe is a geographical area.

    EU is a political organisation. What the EU considers is irelevant in a geography question.

    As Baggly says "Tenerife is not 'in' Africa, its near it" :pac:
    Well Tenerife is 100% not in Europe and it's not even near it either.

    If ya all check rule 64 subsection c paragraph 1,
    "All final decisions rest with the quiz master, complaints will be ignored and go unanswered"

    Chances are everyone had the same wrong incorrect answer anyway :D

    A few years ago I dreamt I was banging Big Phil H on the dl. I was horrified when I woke up and any time I see him on tv since I’m mildly mortified even though NOTHING ACTUALLY HAPPENED.

    So that’s my story.
