Hi Kevin/All, The Python Ireland team did come first, but as a selfless act (they were 1 point ahead of the Girl Geek team), they contested one of their own answer as it was not fully completed and asked for the point to be taken away and a tie-breaker ensued.
Someone not from the 2 teams shouted an answer which Sean knew, so apparently they were "stiffed" in the next question by Mick (he was quizmaster in the latter part of the night), and lost to Girl Geeks. You can ask about the full story in our next pub meet-up. The Python Ireland team gained a lot of respect for being selfless last night, well done, lads! Here are the winners from last night's pub quiz: 1. Girl Geeks 2. Is the Winner (Python Ireland) 3. Ubuntu Ireland And the pub quiz raffle raised €160 for Focus Ireland. Thanks to all who came along, to our sponsors (Apress, Blacknight, Jolt Online Gaming, Microsoft Ireland, NCI, O'Reilly, Python Ireland, Ruby Ireland), our venue host and PA provider, Karma Stone (who also provided the food for free). Cheers, P.S.: Declan was wearing a penguin outfit the whole night, and went home wearing it! So if ye say a giant tux walking around town last night, you know who it was. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ http://irishbornchinese.com ~~ ~~ http://www.python.ie ~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Wed, Dec 15, 2010 at 8:46 AM, Kevin Noonan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm sorry not to have been there last night. > > Someone close to me has been hospitalised. > > I hope you had a good night. > > Have a happy Xmas, > > Kevin. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Python Ireland" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]<pythonireland%[email protected]> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/pythonireland?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Ireland" group.
