I see what you mean, but I honestly think that would still be accepted by the masses

Disclaimer in case of future quote... I think it's ok, but mob that votes may not

thats like saying a 20 ton car. nowt to do with cash. but if it's just a number then fine. seem to be changing the goal poasts all the way through and i won't stand for it .........

But it'd be the "pound" part of my example which would be the qualifier, rather than the "10"

silent · 6 Jun 2013 at 14:25

sorry, its in the wrong context.

Martynt74 · 6 Jun 2013 at 14:28

Agreed, i thought the same but was struggling.

I found one which is so unbeliveably tedious theres no way it'll be allowed especially since my light beer wasn't despite saying light in the name!

My local beer shop were certainly stumped this time around

For the 'N' round its about money .... for 'X' round it's about numbers.

It stated Light or Lite not Alight. That said it went to a vote and everyone as always had there say. Just as you yourself have had in previous rounds.

Now getting back to the 'N' round, I myself would allow 'pound' as it can also be money related. Now if it was displayed as 'lb' then clearly no.

depends in the context. surely. a 10 pound bag is not a decimal currency, past or present. but votes will be votes

Really? Oh ok my bad for not taking into account the context. I was just looking for a word that related to money. ie. pound which does.

silent · 6 Jun 2013 at 16:15

well, the word money, shilling, pound etc is the name of the beer. wadworths 15p stout or gattlings 30s shilling beer. not 10 pound bag.

that's my opinion anyway. sounds like this could be another messy round.

For sure it will be a messy round mate. Once again we are going over things that should've been ironed out in the two weeks before the competition started.

Highly likely to be a no-show from me this week.

silent · 6 Jun 2013 at 18:39

well, just make the rule now then. beer has to be a money name. simples.

Same, though I have my one last chance shop of hopefulness.

I've got a shilling beer, but as there aren't that many available south of the border I'm expecting a low score.

Well after much time spent in various shops and deciding that Banks Carribbean Lager probably wouldn't be allowed I came home and routed in the recycling bin and found my original entry and took a photo !

Sounds like a better solution than mine, got a feeling it's going to break this week, mostly for my own amusement.

I also bought a bottle which had the same pyramid design on it as a dollar bill but decided that was also a little too tedius!
