Wouldn't it be football though, seeming as that's what we call it here. :undecided:

Well Soccer's the north american accepted term for football, seeing as football describes an entirely different game already.

At any rate,

http://www7.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/0606/feature1/index.html

this is the only website i found that if sort of thought of that way could confirm the world cup as a game.  But again, it states "The beautiful game, why soccer rules the world.

But seeing as the question stated : In 2002 Korea and Japan hosted this beautiful game.  In 2006, Germany is the host, name the game. ...It woudln't make sense that it's asking for the competition.  It'd be like saying that a hockey player plays the stanley cup instead of saying that a hockey player plays hockey in order to win the stanley cup. ... Or even worst, that Olympians play medals, and not the games participating in the Olympics to win their medals.


I don't know, this Q6 thing is making me feel midly stupid hehe :)

We too got those annoying internal server errors each week. We are to get full points for the first 2 wks, but still haven't seen that. Very poor marketing, I agree. Week three was not any better, so hopefully they will even that up too.
The soccer question sucked. That is the answer, it is a Canadian trivia game asking. Also that is what it is called.
Very frustrating. Don't know why we bother, but it's all about the game!

Agreed,  one of my teammates got a very simple question wrong last week too.  That turned out to be more frustrating than the actual answer seeming to be wrong.

Spelling counts too, which is very odd in these days of email shortcuts. Caffeine spelled wrong, I guess, unless that was actually the wrong answer.

SO... I went ahead and contacted MSN in regards to soccer not being accepted for the question :

In 2002 Korea and Japan hosted this beautiful game.  In 2006, Germany is the host, name the game

and according to them, in a really rude email,(N Soccer is a sport and the world cup is a game, despite many references stating that a sport is a game and that the world cup is  a tournement ... So needless to say that promotions like this are not worth wasting your time for ^_^ (N)

All and all though, i'm glad its over, it was getting a bit annoying to have to be home on thursday evenings.

How did the rest of you do in rankings?
