Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 9 June 2024

This week we’re having fun with film titles.

Everyone makes mistakes now and then, and this week with your team name we want you to mistake one film for another.

Black Pink Panther

James Bond and the Temple of Doom

Saving Good Will Hunting

How To Lose 10 Things I Hate About A Guy

Lord of the Rings: Return of the Jedi

Any mixed up movies 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

A French composer came up in an AFL question, and they capitalised on it.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We were selling clues at a fundraising quiz, and a shocking number of people bought clues only to find out they were already right.

One team finally had members old enough to be able to actually win the 7th place bottle of wine as a prize at one venue. It was a big deal for them.

And our leaders are still on top with just three weeks left in our quarterly tournament.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 2 June 2024

Last week we borrowed from the “looking for a man in finance” TikTok trend to come up with unrealistically strict dating standards for your team names.

This week we’re going the other way.

Instead of overly strict standards, we want you to come up with unbelievably loose standards.

Constantly nagging, dandruff, unemployable

Refuses to apologise in any circumstances, neck beard, starts every other sentence with “well actually”.

Only talks about themselves, pathologically jealous, no teeth

Hung up on their ex, a dozen cats, criminal record

Give us a list of low dating standards for a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

It took them two questions to get past everyone else to be the sole winners of the jackpot.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We had a huge turnout at the final show of one of our hosts at one of our venues, with many teams coming in themed dress.

Don’t worry, Joe is still hosting on Tuesdays.

We had a guess that Henry Ford was born before the founding of Baghdad, which is off by about 1,100 years.

And our tournament leaders are maintaining their lead as we get closer to the end of the quarter.
