1) Name a Management Game team
It's a great day for Boeing-Bulgaria Bicycling taking top spot with 5 picks! Clearly a true fan favorite team. Last years PT winners Wikipedia take second with 3 picks, whilst Vesuvio are the only other multiple pick with 2. rogvi gives an incorrect answer of Pro Cycling Manager. Also shame on anyone who mentioned their own team, you vain b*stards.
Spoiler Boeing-Bulgaria Bicycling x5
Wikipedia x3
Vesuvio x2
OZ Cycling Project x1
Privatbank-Nemiroff x1
Pokerstars.com x1
Carlsberg-Danskebank x1
Lotto-Australia Post x1
La Vie Claire x1
Bank of Ireland x1
Evonik-Signal Iduna x1
Pro Cycling Manager x1
2) Name an answer from Round 1
The top answer of Q1 is now thw top answer of Q2, Herman Van Springel with 9 picks. 5 for Round 1's top pick of Gino Bartali. 2 Picks for Samuel Sanchez. Amusing answer from knockout with " " (blank) which is technically correct.
Spoiler Herman van Springel x9
Gino Bartali x5
Samuel Sanchez x2
Zurich x1
Rene Pottier x1
" " x1
3) Name part of a bicycle
Between all of us we almost made a whole bike, which was cool. Wheels are apparently the key part with 7 picks. The Frame and Pedals were the only other multiple picks with 2 apiece.
Spoiler Wheels x7
Frame x2
Pedals x2
Brakes x1
Steer x1
Stem x1
Saddle x1
Handlebars x1
Crank x1
Damper x1
Stickers x1
4) Name a Cyrillic language that is not Russian
Not sure Putin would agree but Ukranian was very popular with 7 picks. Then with 3 picks we had Serbian and Bulgarian, that taking away TMM's 5 pointer. 2 picks for Belarussian was the final multiple pick. Although knockouts Qara-Nogay is borderline, while not Russian is native to Russia. jsedog was just wrong as Kurdish is Arabic.
Spoiler Ukranian x7
Serbian x3
Bulgarian x3
Belarussian x2
Qara-Nogay x1
Kazakh x1
Kurdish x1
Mongolian x1
5) Name a type of Pancake, but not Crepe or American (fillings will be classed incorrect)
The dutch Poffertjes take pride of place at the top, with 3 picks. Blin, or Blintz, take 2 picks. As does Scotch and Pallatschinke, which takes away Dippo's 5 pointer. Lots of 1 pointers making me rather hungry... Jihardy get's an incorrect as Blueberrys are a filling, as does knockout who's answer is actually Crepes in broth.
Spoiler Poffertjes x3
Blin x2
Scotch x2
Pallatschinke x2
Blueberry x1
Nalesnik x1
Silver Dollar x1
Frixuelos x1
Palacinke x1
Aebleskiver x1
Waffles x1
Buttermilk x1
Drop Scone x1
Brodo con talionlini di crespelle x1
So sieve takes the final round win with 30 points! jihardy takes a close seond on 29, and pylarz 3rd with 25. Leader Bikex only scores 18, while knockout scores an incorrect 5, so Dippo gets the lowest correct round with 6 points.

Which brings us to the final overall rankings!!! Bikex does enough to hold onto his lead, being out in front from almost start to finish, with 166 points. pylarz made a late charge to second a ways back with 157 points. SN's weak last round drops him to 3rd on 149 points. TMM finishes bottom as per usual. So next up it's Bikex to set the questions, and over to him!

I see what you did there... The team's named Privatbank - Nemiroff Professional Cycling Team, not just Privatbank - Nemiroff... 
5th overall... Pretty cool

Great to see that I could keep the lead despite a rather bad last round. That's the second time I win a round at IWS.
I'd love to do the second round questions, but I'm not sure if I can bring up the time for that. So someone else can take over if he wants, or share the job with me, so I only do the questions for 2/3 rounds. |

If it's an issue doing the scoring then you can set the questions and just have people send the PM's to me again?

I think making the scoring is the least issue, but I think it's extremly hard finding fitting questions, as I kind of lack creativity. |

Thinking about it it's not that hard finding questions, I will post the first ones tonight if that's okay and TMM can you send me the files in which you did the scoring? |

...thanks to roturn and marco for helping out some of my less high-scoring answers each 
If the two of you (TMM and bikex) need any help, I might be able to do so.

Noone came even close to scoring a perfect round. Everyone missed at least one of the big scoring answers here and there. In the end OZrocker took the win 1 point ahead of SportingNonsense and jihardy, who only missed Ford Model T. This round was very close, fouth place with 21 points is shared by four people. All of our 5 point scorers suceeded and gave answers, noone else gave. It won't be that easy for them in the coming rounds.
