And also to sharkshooter a ![[Hot and Hormonal]](icon_redface.gif) is surely deserved! Partly for plagiarism of Pants idea, and partly for... well... y'know.... plagiarism.

I would hesitate to accuse Pants or Sharkshooter of being boring, on the grounds that they have obviously done their research and written it up in their own words. I think there's far too much poppy-cropping in society today where the industrious are berated rather than praised for their achievements. At least I think it was poppy-cropping their posts reminded me of, I know it started with "poppy.. "
However, I would like to point out another interesting fact about Madagascar. Not only is it home to the deadliest carnivore, the fossa (Half mongoose, half clouded leopard), but it's also the only African country which has no other vowel apart from "a".

christianjimmy and Papa Smurf,
How would you define "tell us all about it"?

That depends on your interpretation of the "all"
I understood it as
"tell all of us about it" and not "tell us everything about it" which seems to have been your attempt......
Telling everyone is easy, you just post on the thread, and the us, by definition, is the people who read the thread.
Telling us everything about the country chosen is slightly harder. Has yours, for example, every been used in a song title apart from the country's own National Anthem ?

Erm... actually... um... what I said in my first post was true, but didn't relate to my second post.
I got my country from my Atlas (ie a real book!) as I said in that post. But I then re-read QM's post about what we were supposed to be doing and saw that we were supposed to give info too, and found a website with the info and copied and pasted it (editing the first bit very slightly).
Sorry to have given the wrong impression.
And also sorry if I gave too much info.

Oh, and when Quizmaster said "tell us all about it", I agree with PS that the "all" can go just as well with the "us" as with the "about". So I told all of you about Benin.

Touché
And I echo Papa Smurfs interpretation of the instructions. Pedantic maybe ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) but technically you gotta admit it has merit.
But to keep you happy here is a fact. It is the only country on the african continent apart from the Gambia which shares a border with only one country.

Eritrea
Borders the Red Sea, was part of Ethiopia, then wasn't, then was again, and now isn't. For now, but may not last long seeing as it pinched all of Ethiopias's coastline when it was annexed. And seeing as the Red Sea is a rather zippy shipping lane, that seems a little bit unfair. The whole situation is still unstable.
Its only media are state-owned, so even if there was any news, it may not be entirely reliable.
And finally... Its internet suffix is .er , which seems quite appropriate considering its ongoing state of uncertainty.
Interesting place.

Malawi , for no other reason than that I've been there. It's a beautiful country, and the people are very friendly. Lake Malawi is the third biggest lake in Africa in terms of area, and the biggest in terms of volume. If I get my photos online before the next round starts, I'll post a link.

Niger is well-known in the news at the moment because it is one of Africa's poorest countries. Slavery was only made illegal there last year!
Here is the map, flag and facts.

I'll pick Tunisia
quote:
An ideal climate, a long and gentle seacoast, Tunisia, the northernmost country of Africa has for over 3000 years witnessed the passage of Phoenicians, Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Turks, Spanish and French. They came as fugitive s or adventurers, to conquer or to claim, warriors and missionaries, traders and farmers each leaving a part of their story in stone or mosaics, on hills of Carthage and the threshold of the Sahara.

Also, part of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace was shot here. Not sure whether that's something to be proud of or not.

Re the "all" dilemma:
If Quizmaster had meant tell us everything about it then the size of our posts would be prohibitively large as there is actually quite a lot to say about a country, most of which would be incredibly boring lists. I don't suppose the Ship's server would cope.
If he had meant tell everyone about it then does he mean tell everyone in the world, everyone on the Ship or just those who are taking part in this fantastic quiz? Who is included in the group he refers to as us?
I am going for a third option (does that make it a trilemma?). Quizmaster deliberately used an unclear phrase. It is a test of our moral fibre to see how we deal with the uncertainty which Life throws at us.

But "us all" excludes the possiblity of telling QM by PM.
Personally, if I were to tell anyone "all about" Benin, it would need to include the position and momentum wavefunctions for every particle in Benin and their interactions with every other particle in the universe. Clearly that's going to be an impossibly large amount of data, so in order for QM's request to be achievable, the "all" must go with "us" rather than with "about".

So did I, but I decided not to go for sycophantic points by pointing it out to everyone. ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)
QM - for rounds like this where there are a finite number of possible entries, what are the rules regarding also rans posting thier choices before all the main contestants have posted?
I don't know if it is anything to worry about for this round, but it would be good to know for the future, for anyone who wants to still run along after being knocked out...

Ah! The divine pleasure of the Also-Rans.
The rules are stricter on the contestants than on the Also Rans. If an Also-Ran posts, then that choice is denied to the contestants. If a contestant posts then Also Rans can do what they want, they just lose SMART ALEC points for duplication (Sharkshooter!? ).
We could get a contestant eliminated if all the Also-Rans post. Now that would be worth watching. ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif)
In certain limited circumstances I shall announce that Also-Ran nominations do not count. In those cases contestants may post a choice made by an Also-Ran but not a choice made by another contestant.
Anyone compiling a rule book - This should be about Page 5, Paragraph 7, Section A, Subsection IX.

ROUND FIVE : BRITISH FOOTBALL (SOCCER)
For this round you have to pick five teams and you then hope that these teams score more goals than the teams selected by other contestants.
You must pick one team from the Barclays Premiership, one team from the Coca Cola Championship, one team from Coca Cola League One, one team from Coca Cola League Two and one team from the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier League.
You can pick the same teams as others but your combination must be unique.
The person (or persons) to be eliminated will be those whose teams score the fewest goals between them this coming weekend. Monday night counts as part of the weekend.
Entries must be posted by Midnight on Friday.

You must pick one team from the Barclays Premiership : Chelsea (Because I like the name!)
one team from the Coca Cola Championship Saints - Southampton (Well, I couldn't not, could I?)
one team from Coca Cola League One, Swansea (in honour of my sister)
one team from Coca Cola League Two Cheltenham Town (In honour of Dolphy)
and one team from the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier League. Celtic (in honour of my big brother)
This website might come in useful for teams in leagues and for current statistics, if you're going to be boring and choose on the basis of likelihood of winning. Rather useful site for this challenge
Where's the Isle of Wight team? That's what I want to know. Come on you yellows!
