Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 3 May 2026

Uncategorized,

Recently Henry Cavill was giving dating advice.

And a lot of people thought this advice coming from him wasn’t all that helpful.

So this week for your team name, we want you to come up with more unhelpful advice.

You need to get somewhere fast? Just run – Usain Bolt

If you’re paralysed by depression, just stop feeling sad

When you have an asthma attack, just breathe. It works for me

If you can’t afford a plane ticket, just fly there – Superman

If there’s water in your way, just walk on it. It works for me – Jesus

Any unhelpful advice will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

TEAM NAMES

Chat GPT surely has some interesting origin stories for your made up idioms.

If you have a ladder, don’t swim in the ocean

A bird on the road keeps the doctor away

A watched stream never flows backwards

No skin off my teeth

When ants go to discos

It’s easier to scratch a dog than shake a cat

Like a frog with a tuxedo

The early bird gets its wings clipped

Too many cockroaches at the table

I wouldn’t hang my coat on that

A fool and his money are are a girl’s best friend

You don’t set mousetraps under a full moon

Eyeliner doesn’t make a polar bear a panda

Never trust a sailor with a purse made of bacon

TriviArt

Speedy Golf

Pineapple Blasphemy

Therapeutic Morgue

Shoe Phone

AI Meatball

Seismic Glasses

Limerick Poll

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked a question on brands of golf balls, one player suddenly became very interested in the golf that was on TV.

One player who had just returned from the bar was sent up to face the bonus round by a friend. Neither of them had the slightest idea what it entailed, and they wound up naming a grand total of zero artists who have recently won the Grammy for Best Record, instead of the 12 they were tasked with.

Jared Leto’s role in Fight Club was described as “dude who gets beat up”. Which, to be fair, is not entirely wrong.

We had a pregnancy announcement at one quiz, and a promise that if the baby comes on a Monday, they will be brought to trivia on the Tuesday to get them the best start in life.

And our leaders have maintained their spot at the top of the table.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 26 April 2026

Uncategorized,

You’ve probaby heard plenty of sayings and wondered where they came from.

In fact, some people have been inventing idioms, and then asking AI chatbots about their origins and enjoyed seeing it fabricate a back story out of nothing.

For your team name this week, we want you to invent a completely fictional saying that AI might think is real.

A deer never chases a snake

Half a coffee is better than a carrot

You can’t bring a tricycle to the moon

I feel like a Smurf in a tornado

Any made up expressions that might fool AI will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We gave our usual pre-quiz spiel, and then proceeded into question 1. It was only as we were repeating the question that one team reacted with a stunned “oh sh!t he’s asking questions already”.

We had one team guess that the inventor of the AK-47 was born in 1945, and therefore designed it when he was 2 years old.

One team theorised that our host must have a favourite Grey’s Anatomy character, adding that “every woman has a favourite Grey’s Anatomy character”, but not noticing that our host was not, in fact, a woman.

We have new leaders in our quarterly tournament.

See you next week.
