Neil's Weekly Question Round-Up - Week 15

The feedback from the scoresheets for WEEK 15 was as follows:

SCORES:

Winners:

9: Lofthouse Lions, Olde Taverners

8: Carleton Grangers, Featherstone Phoenix

7.5: The Other Team

Non-winners:

8: King’s Arms, Kippax Legionnaires

7: Kippax British Legion, Olde Tavern Allsorts, The Vic

COMMENTS:

Carleton Grangers: V good game. Great spirit + atmosphere.

The Vic: Good rounds.

Lofthouse Lions: Another good set.

Kippax Legionnaires: Pity about the second half.

[Kippax lost 97-78 after being only 45-44 behind at half-time.]

Olde Taverners: Interesting rounds, mainly balanced rounds.

[See below for a balance analysis.]

Featherstone Phoenix: Good game.

STATISTICS:

The numbers of questions remaining unanswered (by either team) in rounds 1/2/4/7/9/10 were as follows (in the 6 matches, expressed as A-B):

1-2

2-2

3-4

4-5

5-8

10-14

25-35 (Total)

So these figures suggest that ‘A’ was a little favoured by the balance.

Split by rounds instead of matches, the same unanswered questions break down as:

4-8 (Novels)

1-7 (British films)

1-3 (Tennis)

8-7 (American history)

8-2 (Companies and brands)

3-8 (O yes)

This suggests the favouring of ‘A’ was quite prominent in some places, but was somewhat counterbalanced by a favouring of ‘B’ elsewhere.

Finally (and unusually), there were no questions that remained unanswered by anyone in the FTQL on the night.
