INTERESTING MOMENTS

Ok here’s a question for you… what number is this?

It was written as a jackpot answer, and both we, and the bar staff we consulted thought it was 13100. If it was 12,100, it would have won the jackpot. The lesson is, be careful with your handwriting.

One team wore a Twilight t-shirt, and when we asked a Twilight question she unzipped her hoodie to show the rest of the team that she was in fact an expert.

Just a reminder, please don’t harass the hosts while they’re in the middle of a question.

And we have reached the end of our quarterly tournament with Foxolotl taking top spot. Fish and Friends snuck in on highest average with an 82 point win when their closest competitors won with a low enough score to drag them down.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about Robert DeNiro films, one team put The Godfather as their answer for three of the five questions. Maybe they’re REALLY big fans of that film.

Never leave a question blank. On a question on how to spell the names of languages in that language, one team just wrote down Maori because they didn’t know how to say Maori in Maori, only to find out that Maori in Maori… is Maori.

When the answer is Oskar Schindler, and your answer is Hitler… that’s about as wrong as you can get.

And the quarterly tournament has a week left, and it looks like first place is locked up. But there are still a few teams that can plausibly win for highest average among the top 12.
