This week we want you to think of single people you know.
And for your team name, tell us what screams “I’m single”.
Being on a first name basis with the Uber Eats guy
Getting killed with rent because they assume two people are paying it
Never using brunch as a verb
Anything but curtains acting as curtains
Having a pile of clean clothes and dirty clothes on the floor and knowing which is which
My aunt after her third gin & tonic
Anything that is a clear marker of singlehood will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
One team was determined to come last, and was disappointed to get the first bonus question. (Don’t worry, they still came last.)
One team called themselves “am not coming last at trivia”… and then came last.
We had five teams within 2 points of first place at one venue, and the teams in 3rd & 4th both could have won if they had bet 5 on the gambler’s question like the first place team.
To answer a question on countries on the exact opposite side of the world from New Zealand, one player built a globe out of a napkin and then stabbed it.
And our quarterly tournament has wound up with Masterminds winning for the first time with a big effort and 11 wins out of 12 weeks.

So for your team name this week, we want you to come up with a colour to describe a place.
White House Orange
Irish Green
Adelaide Grey
Eastern Suburbs Gold
Melbourne Latte
Western Sydney Red (Rooster)
North Dakota White
Any colours named for a place will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
We asked a question about Eye of the Tiger, and it was as though a karaoke night spontaneously broke out as half a dozen teams tried to figure out how many times the word “tiger” comes up in the song.
We watched one team lock in an answer they had whittled down to a 50-50, then debate it for 10 minutes, before changing it… to the wrong answer.
And we had a changing of the guard at the top of our leaderboard. With one week to go, it could still go either way.
