Hey just keeping this on the side burner - my time for the ASG will be freeing up soon since my online league is now in the final four. And I know this because we’re in it.

Nothing from what we've already done but semis (maybe) and finals (definitely) have been on YouTube in past seasons.

Well we got our doors blown off but it could have gone differently. I knew all 3 of their Round 2 questions for 5 points. I’ll tell you what they were when it’s safe.

Is there a quick version of understanding this?

Probably not?
I play in an online version of the trivia show that this thread is about (which itself is based on a cult-followed UK show) and it’s filled with people who are the closest thing the US has to pro quizzers and my randomly-thrown-together trio just lost in the D1 semis to the ‘27 Yankees of the league and if we got some question luck it would have at least been very close.
It wasn’t recorded.

Well we lost the third-place game fairly handily too. The semis game could have at least been respectable if we swapped questions in the sequences round.
They got one showing venn diagrams of the letters shared by TEN ELEVEN TWELVE which jumped right off the page and would have been 5 points for us instead of them (the answer was the same for ONE TWO THREE)
Next was a first clue showing “JOHN = BARTENDER” and so the answer was the fourth person and job mentioned in goddamn Piano Man. Might not have gambled that I knew the right order for 5 but I would have been right (DAVY = SAILOR)
And the final nail was the last 4 goals scored in the Miracle on Ice. They included the Russian goals so not exactly the same as the one I wrote but still an automatic 5
The rest was just hard and embarrassing (…)

All-Star Game scheduling emails just went out to Chedda, Pruitt, BSF, GPJ, GK, and AB
IMPORTANT!
As the BBC show does some special charity episodes around Christmas, the league office has decided to raise money for our favorite organization,
Pathfinders for Autism. If you would like to make a donation centered around this event, please email or pm me sometime in the next week or so before we can play the game. What I'd like to do is have people donate a certain amount of money per point scored in the game to make it interesting. It's going to be double the length of a normal game, so I would expect anywhere from 50-100ish points on the board from these excellent players. So whether it's 10 cents or a dollar or whatever, just let me know what you'd like to do. If you'd rather just commit to a flat amount, tell me that instead.
It'll be up to you to make your own donation when all is said and done, but if we could get all the pledges in before the game, at least I'll have some idea of the total and can announce it on the video that I will certainly remember how to make. When we get the game scheduled, I'll post again with some sort of deadline reminder.
Thanks.

More touched than I can describe. Even the idea of it is amazing. A PFA basket of swag that I may have in your size to the winning squad AND a BJ Surhoff signed ball.
