Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 26 October 2025

You’ve been giving lots of bad advice over the last few weeks.

And at the end of this week it’s Halloween.

So for your team name this week we want you to give some bad Halloween advice.

Kids like jars of expired olives, don’t they?

Don’t go with fake blood, cut yourself enough that you bleed for real

Dress as someone everyone loves, like Elon Musk

Make sure your fake beard is made of asbestos

Any bad Halloween advice will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team mistook a picture of New Girl for Game of Thrones. For the record, New Girl is the LEAST Game of Thrones TV series that has ever been made.

Proposed titles for the latest Indiana Jones film were Indiana Jones and the Dial of Harrison Ford’s Garmin, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of the Suicide Hotline.

One team recognised a picture of Hamburger University as a McDonald’s training centre, and went on to speculate about courses taught there, including Art Appreciation with the Hamburgler, and From Grimace to Winner, Customer Service with a Smile.

A picture of the Beatles was stated to be Drake, Gary Glitter, and Rolf Harris… which is a terrifying concept.

And our leaders from last week didn’t win, but none of their closest competitors won either so they maintained their lead.

If you didn’t graduate at the top of your class in high school nobody is ever going to hire you

Follow your passion and ditch your steady job that pays the mortgage to make pottery

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We’ve hit a decade at one of our venues. Yes it’s been 10 years since Joe started hosting at the Old Canberra Inn, and the occasion was marked with t-shirts, and a mock assault with a sugar glass bottle that luckily went off without a hitch.

The answer to one gambler’s question was Nacho, and one team got it wrong despite ordering nachos.

And after coming second for 6 weeks in a row and attending for months without a win, one team finally managed their first ever victory at iQ Trivia.

Our quarterly tournament has just one team at the top of the table with three wins in three weeks.
