Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 14 May 2023

We’re going to engage in some speculation this week.

Imagine that all the women in the world have disappeared, but they will be back in one year.

How will the world be different?

Every hospital would shut down

Mansplainers would have no idea what to do with themselves

Incels would find something else to complain about

The price of pillows would drop dramatically

Honestly, a lot of guys wouldn’t even notice

Any speculations about a world without women for a year will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

You’re so brave for wearing that outfit.

You’d look good with some make up on.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Five letter words ending in ART? One team opted for shart? Which might tell us something about them.

After choosing literature as their subject in a jackpot round, one player could only respond with “oh f*ck” when he actually heard the question.

The most prominent female character in Captain America… one team insisted it was Princess Leia.

While we were giving hints on a bonus question, we mentioned the country we were looking for was in Europe. The next guess… ZIMBABWE!

See you next week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 7 May 2023

This week your team names are going to be compliments.

But we don’t want you to be too nice, so we want them to be dubious compliments.

I love how you’ll just wear anything.

You look great for your age.

I won the most improved award four years in a row.

Someone told me I speak English so well. It’s my native language.

You look great. I barely recognise you.

Any compliments that aren’t as complimentary as they first seem will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Who was the main character in Braveheart? Mel Gibson, declared one team with great confidence. (This is why you listen to questions.)

Cities in song titles? Dubbo Rock City, and One Night in Hobart.

Instead of saying Alan Rickman on an audio question, someone said Snape. Which is fair. Snape and Alan Rickman are pretty much the same person.

And one player asked us “is there someone whose job it is to come up with these questions?” Yes. Yes there is.

See you next week.
