Snooker's Biggest Quiz

[PaulTheSoave]

Actually you sir!

The first answer D_G posted was incomplete. The next answer by the same member can only be given when another member has had a try. Therefore the second answer by D_G was not valid (sorry sir) and as you gave the correct one, point to you.

Who shall be awarded the points if this is the rule?

`

Round 250, anyone?

[frameandfortunereturns]

Who shall be awarded the points if this is the rule?

[PaulTheSoave]

Yes, correct Davis_Greatest! Also in the right order.
Well, this one was only 23 minutes harder than the previous question.

Anyone to volunteer to update the table please?

I have to lock the front door!

ps. Is rule 2 still intact? as it says one can only answer again after someone else has given an answer. (see message 1).

[frameandfortunereturns]

West Centre Hotel, Earl's Court; New London Theatre, Drury Lane; Wembley Conference Centre; Wembly Arena.

[davis_greatest]

Meant: West Centre Hotel, New London Theatre, Wembley Conference Centre and Wembley Arena?

[davis_greatest]

West Centre Hotel, Wembley Conference Centre and Wembley Arena?

[PaulTheSoave]

Yes he just snatched it. Bill winning that match 13-10 btw.

Round 249

Maybe this one is a bit harder.
Name all venues (and I mean the one at London ) where The Masters has been played.

[Shaggy365]

Dear me, it doesn't take long does it?

Round 249 - Somebody?

[Alex0paul]

Bill Werbeniuk and David Taylor?

[Shaggy365]

OK. I'll ask one then.

When Cliff Thorburn made his 147 in the World Snooker Championships in 1983, the play was stopped on the other table. Who were the two players who temporarily halted their game?

[davis_greatest]

Was it one of the players? Or even the referee?

Yes, congratulations, and welcome to the scoreboard!

The owner of the interjecting clock was Smyth himself. He had been out to buy it a new battery that morning and had forgotten that he had put the clock in his jacket pocket.

So here is the scoreboard after round 247

ROUND TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-EIGHT

...anyone?

[Shaggy365]

Was it one of the players? Or even the referee?

[davis_greatest]

ROUND TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-SEVEN

Why did referee John Smyth not ask for the removal of the person who had an alarm clock ring during the 1981 World Team Cup match between John Spencer and Paddy Morgan, disturbing their concentration, or even issue a warning to that individual?

[davis_greatest]

Congratulations Monique! That is the correct answer.
