Well, as the General Secretary (and only member) of The B3ta Branch
I can offer you a membership, you might need to fill in a questionnaire though.

I'll fill in your questionnaire if you know what I mean.

OK, your first question is as follows:
The development of the industrial proletariat is conditioned by what other development?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:36, Reply)

bigger tits.

is it the development of the industrial bourgeois, mr keyote?

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:43, Reply)

No, no, no. It's the development of the industrial bourgeoisie, as you well know.

Point to Mr. Hequator
And on with our second question:
The struggle of class against class is a what struggle? A what struggle?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:44, Reply)

A class struggle.

( girlinthehole, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:45, Reply)

Close but you're not quite there.
I'll open it up if anyone want's to buzz in.

a "well gay" struggle.

political, but I'm not playing for the prizes, you understand. That would be capitalist.

And it's neck and neck now as we come to the final question:

Who won the Cup Final in 1949?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:47, Reply)

Germany.
Or was that the second world war. I get the two confused.
( girlinthehole, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:48, Reply)

I'm afraid that is an incorrect answer.
I wonder if there's any mileage in doing a pub-quiz style thread at some point. I could do questions, but I'd need a bit of time for research and it would involve a lot of honour to stop people Googling.

Another wrong answer, after such a promising start

( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:54, Reply)

there were no german cup finals between 1943 and 1953
so .. no one.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:52, Reply)

That's not the answer I have on my card Mr. Badger

( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:54, Reply)

no one said it was german

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:55, Reply)

Well spotted Mr. Ros, no one did.
Would you care to hazard a guess at the correct answer?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:57, Reply)

the only answer I can muster is "only idiots care about fucking football"

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 14:00, Reply)

As the only one still playing, I'd let you have it.
although the correct answer is:
Wolverhampton Wanderers who beat Leicester 3-1
Sadly this leaves us with a 3-way tie between you, hequator and badger and I doubt any of you can be arsed to continue.

Karl Marx was a kraut, no?

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Fri 22 Jul 2011, 13:57, Reply)

Indeed he was Mr Badger.
But this has no bearing on the question. It may however come in useful in the event of a tiebreaker.
