Recently one of our teams made a spelling mistake on a James Bond question and referred to Sean Cannery.
So we’re making that our team name theme.
For a bonus point, we want you to make a minor spelling mistake in a celebrity name.
Benedict Cucumberbatch
Bread Pitt
Nicolas Rage
Leonardo DiCatrio
Meryl Sheep
Colin Birth
Keanu Leaves
Any misspelled celebrity names will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.
WINNERS
If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.
JACKPOT
Coming last in trivia stings a lot less when you win $140 in the jackpot.
And it’s also nice when you finish first and also win the jackpot, though the other teams are more likely to hate on you.
TEAM NAMES
It was a nice change of pace to have compliments as team names.
You’re like the cool side of the pillow
You look like you’d follow a word limit
Would
Nice ass
Your mother is a nice lady
You’re less awful than Hitler
You wouldn’t steal a car
I bet models call you for advice
You look like you never shit
You have golden retriever energy
You’re as tasty as KFC
Childhood me would have wanted your life
TriviArt
Scandalous Feet
Feisty Dog
Sparkling Current
Blue Poo
Frightening Spectacles
Toucan Cuckoo Clock
Immature Melting
INTERESTING MOMENTS
The Frenchman working behind the bar gave away the answer when we asked teams to identify the language of a cover version of a Beatles song.
We asked what Australian state the Gawler Ranges were in, and one team asked us to explain what we meant. I mean… there’s not really much to explain. Just pick a state.
One team managed their first ever win after a year or so of coming 7th… right before they move out of town.
And we’ve got three teams over the 200 mark three weeks into our quarterly tournament, and one team way up at 82 on average scores.

Bryan Adams had a hit with his song Summer of 69. If it was released today, what year would he be singing about?
(So you’re subtracting from the current year to find out how far back he would have to go to get that level of nostalgia.)

Following on from last week’s insults, this week it’s all about compliments.
With your team name, you are going to compliment someone in seven words or less.
I bet puppies share pictures of you
Your hair belongs in a shampoo commercial
You’re cooler than a secret handshake
I hardly ever want to punch you
You’re almost as good as cake
Sure it may not be as fun as insults, but let’s be nice for once. Any brief compliments will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Ok look. I’ve been on holiday in Canada for the last two weeks, and I’m getting on a plane in a couple of hours, so I have better things to do that pore through everything and put together a week in review post. Next week we will be back to normal.
On the bright side, I’ve been competing in a lot of trivia here, and I’ve won heaps.
Have an interesting week.
