INTERESTING MOMENTS

We gave a series of 50/50 options on a question about Macbeth, and our options fooled a team of Scottish people. The following night, a Scotsman was beaten to the punch on a Loch Ness Monster question.

A day of the week that comes after Saturday? Sabbath. Well that’s more complicated than it needed to be, but yes.

One player was bugging us for a hint on one question, we gave him one, and it tipped him from having the correct answer to having a wrong answer. The lesson… be careful about asking for hints.

See you next week.
