Results from HQ March 2017

Greetings again quiz warriors and human friends ...

March saw another nailbiting fight. Anxiety inducing ... I had to steady my palpitations, reach for a brown paper bag and chant calming mantras.

So how'd it go?
The Challenge
The USA fielded 15 players, snatched 7181 points = 51.3% of the spoils of war.
The UK & Co fielded 12 warriors. grabbed 6825 pts = 48.7% of the crumbs.
The USA, yet again, won the March challenge!

And now to the second battle, without which there could be no war.

The Survivor
The USA fielded 9 super-heroes (and heroines), won 2056 pts = 51.1%
The UK & Co sent in 12 troopers, bagged 1967 pts = 48.9%
The USA won the March Survivor quiz.

Wow! Congratulations my American buddies for winning both battles! And my unstinting admiration to both jules44, Top UK General ... and Suep, Top USA General for such a tremendously close and entertaining fight! Only 2 points between them .. and though jules snatched victory by the skin of her teeth ... the better, cleverer and faster army won.
Raise your glasses my friends and fellow fighters to the USA.
The USA won the March War for world domination.

Final Result
USA = 51.2%
UK & Co = 48.8%

*Pengy turns away and dabs eyes with a tissue* ... and now commiserations to the UK & Co team. Gird your loins, get in training, get recruiting .. for the USA are getting a stranglehold and never ever will the fantastic UK be beaten into submission!

And one more thing ...  where is Martin Cube? Provider of nibbles and Captain of the UK Smorgasbord? Whew, thank goodness Quiz Beagle has stepped into the void to offer a daily dose of performance enhancing treats to the keep the UK team well fuelled. Today's nibbles are Polish sausage from Qmel ... hee, hee, don't tell Mr Tusk of the EU that we worthy fighters are eating that! And Laver Bread from Quiz Beagle ... ?? .. which I confess I had to google. Hmm ... sounds right up my street. Very tasty.

So my wonderful troopers! Battle commences once again!
Good Luck to both armies.
