INTERESTING MOMENTS

South Africans who have won the Nobel Peace Prize? Not Oscar Pistorius or Elon Musk as some teams guessed.

One team with a real live Greek person was the only one to get a question on Greek mythology wrong.

And we’ve got three teams at the top of the table in our quarterly tournament.

This Week in iQ Trivia – 12 October 2024

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

To win a jackpot you need knowledge. Or you need to be lucky.

They managed an educated and lucky guess on the Berlin Wall, and then a second lucky guess on Star Trek and won over $200 on the jackpot.

TEAM NAMES

You were full of unethical life hacks

Shopping with grandpa’s disabled parking sticker

Moving in with your grandparents and blaming their Alzheimers for their misappropriated funds

The cheapest electricity is your neighbours

Travel everywhere by courtesy bus

Prepaid Opal cards at the airport

Use a mannequin to drive into the carpool lane

Be a girl and go on dates to get free meals

Just steal from Woolies

Using Costco samples as your main source of protein

Release your gases to clear the masses

Wanking on the bus gets you two seats

TriviArt

Cold Pickle

Unreliable Beelzebub

Fired Pineapple

Auld Paper Coins

Poodle Bong

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team brought a furry teammate. Not sure how helpful she was, but she was a very good girl.

A question on annual spending per person at Woolworths supermarkets got guesses ranging up to $400,000. Hot damn! Inflation is really taking hold.

One team did the homework for the previous week, and it cost them a prize.

And we now have six teams on two wins in our quarterly tournament.
