That's all for Question 6. Question 7 should reveal on Monday, November 6th.

The question is:

#7 - Name a player with at least 20 interceptions by the end of Week 11 (November 5th).

Here's a breakdown of interceptions so far:
20+ = 7 players
18-19 = 8 players
16-17 = 8 players
15 = 8 players
14 = 10 players

So lots of people with a chance to make it happen.

Yup. Plus the 7 remaining people with wrong answers would have gotten 20 instead of 19.

Perfect Game Watch:

The 7 players with perfect games picked 7 different players. Of those 7 players, these are the total # of interceptions they have:

26
17
16
14
10
10
4

So there could be some carnage at the top...

Some weirdness for the own goal question coming up later...

So far 5 different teams have scored own goals. I received 19 different answers for that question. So far only 3 of those 19 different answers is correct. Head asplode.

Some woodwork weirdness (Q12 - player to have hit it twice)...

Harry Kane has hit the woodwork 5 times. No one else has hit the woodwork more than twice, & only 3 players have done that. 46 different players have done so once.

I'm hoping he isn't correct as it will make Wanyama score much worse

EDIT: lol just checked my answers, and I didn't pick Wanyama at all

e_holle registered his 1st correct answer this week to fall out of this group.
me and esad went for the home run and struck out, ie we opted for the professional play ie gave ourselves a chance to win the whole damn thing. congratulations to myself and esad, the true winners of this competition

massive hugebigly lols at the people who picked eg man city for the 5 points away from home question, have fun finishing 23rd overall you bums

Have some more bonus blind sweat - you didn't pick the guy with 4.

While trying not to spoil too much, I will say I was intrigued by the breakdown of answers for this question, & this could easily be one like question 3 where there are 2 separate scores for incorrect answer givers if the SHEEP answer is incorrect.

POINTS ON THE BOARD

I swung for the fences pretty hard on most other answers, but sometimes you've just got to check the analytics and take the points

This was a really fun question, perhaps my favorite. There will be lots of correct answers that wouldn't have been in anyone's top 5 or 10 picks. If I manage to pull it off it will surely be an ace.

Kane was a correct answer for the post Q after W1 IIRC.

The person who wins will have City like answers to a lot of these. It's not a lottery with thousands of runners.

Lack of ploppers here, or everyone thinking it'd be peak lolplop by now?

The ploppers saw it as such an obvious pick that they avoided it

Wat

Did someone pick a team that isn't even in the Premier League or something?

I'm going to go ahead & leave the suspense on this one. The person knows what they did.

If someone calls a correct player for the own goal question instead of team, that deserves to count

Also - enjoying these teasers. As my interception guy is neither the 4 nor 26, I can't help but think this next question was too tough and will likely have very few correct answers. Should give us a couple more weeks or a lower target! Obviously not seriously advocating changing the question

When people chose players for team questions, I PM'd them & asked if they wanted to choose the team that player was on. If people chose a team for a player question, I informed them that they need to change that ish.

If I run this again, I'm definitely going to take into consideration whether the questions are gaining the balance I was hoping for when designing them.

If only a few people end up getting them right, then I definitely need to redesign because questions with almost no correct answers are bad because no one really gets rewarded much for being correct.

Yeah. I revealed that someone was officially wrong after week 1. It's probably pretty obvious what the issue is.

Even outside that, though, pretty crazy that 18 of 20 teams were picked, & the 2 teams that weren't picked are among the 5 correct answers.
