Unix and C are not the same thing. They are not remotely the same thing. Did the 3 of us answer the same thing? If not they should be split.

[mister d]

Lanny McDonald - Degen

This might be my favorite answer ever.

[howard]

and boom goes the dynamite.

[Shirley]

Dammit. Mr D and I are tied and have had the same answer 3 questions in a row. I know I missed 10.

[Ryan]

Q10 - Name anyone in the top 50 list for career NFL catches that wore a uniform number OUTSIDE of the 80s for at least one full season (13)
NOTE: "Full season" means anything other than wearing a different number for a one-game emergency purpose. If someone wore #17 for a couple games, then got hurt for the year, he would still count. NOTE: Amani Toomer is 51st all-time, with 668 receptions

They are listed together in the source article.

[Ryan]

Can't get the final scoreboard or standings to upload at the moment. That's coming on Monday, along with W12 questions which will be due the following Monday after American Thanksgiving.

[rass]

Laveranues Coles is in the top 50 in career receptions? Wow.

[howard]

Nice one, champ. But you didn't get me down, Diamond.



(hopscotch. nice fucking answer genius. And of course Turkey is a one-pointer. hate this fucking game.)

[rass]

good game cheds

[sancarlos]

Laveranues Coles is in the top 50 in career receptions? Wow.

Yeah, I went and looked that up. Pretty obvious that it was a rushing league in the olden days. It looks like Charley Taylor was in the top couple in all-time receptions when he retired, and now he's not in the top 50.

[govmentchedda]

good game cheds

That was a close one. Nice win. Pens suck.

[mister d]

They are listed together in the original list. They are also contributed to the same set of researchers at Bell....plus UNIX became portable when it was rewritten in C in the 70s so one helped lead to the other...

[Rush2112]

Thanks again Ryan!

[The Sybian]

How do I fucking forget Brazil when listing largest countries? Brutal week, and I thought this was one of the easier weeks. I protest the tennis question. When clay courts are involved, the answer is always Michael Chang.

[Shirley]

They may have been developed at the same time (generally) and by some of the same people, but an operating system and a programming language are very different things.

[Ryan]

If the article had said

"7. Frisbees and the 1973 Detroit Pistons"

and then talked about how they sort of went together, I would have combined those answers too

[A_B]

Think of it like the big 10 which has more than 10 teams!

[Ryan]

And people think they make helmets

[A_B]

I feel prett bad about that one but it was a total blind spot. Thought it was a business of some sort.

[bfj]

Gift is fine. Good game.

[degenerasian]

Lanny McDonald - Degen

This might be my favorite answer ever.

hahahaha that's 2 weeks in a row i fucked up.

I thought the Captain said i'm going to Disneyland, not the MVP.

[Pruitt]

Lanny McDonald - Degen

This might be my favorite answer ever.

It might be the most Canadian answer ever. He was my favourite Leaf for years. Best wrist shot in the game!



I dedicate today's win to the great Jason Kapono!

[sancarlos]

He's a Leaf to Pruitt and a Flame to Degen. But, to me, Lanny McDonald will always be a Colorado Rockie!

[Rush2112]

Did I say they were?

They were developed by some of the same people, and one helped lead to the other...AND as Ryan and I both mentioned, they were together on the list.

Zara FTW! Apparently PDX and I are the only ones with some style. (And weirdly I never would have guessed it without Ryan's "hint". It's an interesting company.)

I only knew them because we read a case about them in business school. They are interesting. That said, I wouldn't have thought of them - or at least I couldn't remember the name until I saw your answer.

[Diamond]

Nice one, champ. But you didn't get me down, Diamond.



(hopscotch. nice fucking answer genius. And of course Turkey is a one-pointer. hate this fucking game.)

Great game, back and forth like a LaMotta/Sugar Ray fight. Ray's my middle name. Total prayer on Novak, I figured Nadal would go the way he did.

[TT2.0]

gg ab. very well played

[DC47]

Nice set of answers Brian. Thanks for the game Crash czar.

I was ultimately crushed by the twin sides of age. I correctly recalled that Larry Nance won the first dunk contest. It was a big deal back then to us now old-timers. But time has faded my memory, so that I thought he did this when he was with Cleveland rather than Phoenix.

Standings

[testy boxcar]

i still don't understand the first question.

[BSF21]

i still don't understand the first question.

Out of 26 letters in the alphabet, 10 of the highest population belonging to their letter group are partially or completely in Asia. Brazil is wrong, for example. Highest "b" country, not in Asia.

[Gunpowder]

Way to come out strong on your bye week, dickheads
