INTERESTING MOMENTS

Sometimes when reading out letter, we give the letter in the phonetic alphabet. That’s helpful. Especially when we say “L as in Lima” and the answer is actually Lima.

We played a mashup including the Pornhub intro music, and someone thought it was Playschool. Nooooooope!

One two separate occasions, teams argued for 5 minutes over where to allocate their points in our bonus round, when not one of their answers was correct.

And after 13 weeks we have winners in our quarterly tournament, though it was really close.

It’s the Richard Gere Appreciation Society, taking first place and the highest average with an 80 point win in the final week.

A new quarterly tournament begins next week. Make sure you include your tournament team name in the corner of your answer sheet every week so your winning scores are counted.

See you next week.

Al-Qaeda built the twin towers just to knock them down.

They put pineapple on pizza.

He lures children into his gingerbread house.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about a Jane Austen book, one player piped up and said “who is Jane Austen”. To which we responded “look, this question may not be for you.”

Our bonus round involved naming South American countries, and one Brazilian player pointed out that the bonus round was unfair in his favour… and then proceeded to get it wrong.

We asked about countries with stars on their flags, and one team said Japan, and we couldn’t really say they were wrong.

And there’s one week to go in our weekly tournament and it’s still close. There are four teams with a chance to win the top prize, and a few more in the running for the highest average prize.

See you next week.

When they heard a 90s song, one team guessed that it was Creed, Nickelback, and Pearl Jam, none of which were correct.

Instead of answering Taylor Swift, one team answered “a childless cat lady”.

What sport has the most drug violations? Breakdancing according to one team. Well, it would explain Raygun.

And our quarterly tournament is as close as it can be. It’s a tie, broken only by the fact that Leader Housen has a higher maximum score. And in third place we have a team just four points behind.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

On a question about British Prime Ministers and Hugh Grant characters, a team of Brits managed to pick just 3/5 correctly, which is barely better than average. (They still won though.)

One team saw a picture of Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas, and guessed that it was Rishi Sunak.

Two minutes after we played a song, it came up on the jukebox and half the room heard it in full all over again.

One team only knew Edgar Allen Poe’s The Raven because of the Simpsons. Which is a perfectly fair place to pick up knowledge on higher culture.

And our quarterly tournment has three weeks left and there are still plenty of teams in the running both for the overall title and for the highest average.

See you next week.

WINNERS

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

JACKPOT

They probably didn’t KNOW the answer to a jackpot question on prime numbers, but they did manage to guess it.

TEAM NAMES

Her voice wasn’t as sexy after she quit smoking

Our star signs were incompatible

INTERESTING MOMENTS

If you’re given 50/50 options, even if you have no idea, you might as well guess. One team who knew nothing about cricket nailed three 50/50s after we reminded them that you don’t lose points for guessing.

One of our players coincidentally wore a t-shirt with an answer to a special subject question on it.

And we have new leaders at the top of the leader board. But there are still plenty who can win on both overall scores and average scores.

See you next week.
