Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 14 September 2025

Uncategorized,

This week we want you to one up someone.

Literally, we want you to take an expression and make it a bit bigger.

Well I’m on cloud ten!

Why kill two birds with one stone when you can kill THREE birds with TWO stones?

Oh yeah? Well I got COVID-20!

Dancing is a lot more interesting when it takes THREE to tango.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked what people often leave for Santa’s reindeer that they shouldn’t, and got responses of cocaine, plutonium, and guns. Which is… not wrong, but makes us concerned that someone has been leaving cocaine, plutonium, and guns for Santa’s reindeer.

When one of our hosts played Country Roads by John Denver on a night when we were having audio difficulties, the entire room joined in and sang along. Normally we advise people not to sing the answers, but on a song like that, we’re pretty sure everyone knew it anyway.

One of our teams who were in the minority on the dilemma question about wearing boxing gloves for a year in exchange for a large cash payment made up a long list of reasons why the majority was wrong.

And our quarterly tournament is getting close to the business end, and there’s still a lot that can happen both on total points and average.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 7 September 2025

Uncategorized,

You may have seen the video of Bob Katter reacting to a reporter asking if his family was from Lebanon.

If you haven’t, his exact words were “don’t say that, because that irritates me, and I punch blokes in the mouth for saying that.”

That’s a pretty strong reaction, and for your team name this week, we want to know what statement would make you react that way?

Taylor Swift isn’t that talented

.gif is pronounced with a J sound

Dogs should stay off the furniture

Everything happens for a reason

Slow walking people have the right to walk shoulder to shoulder

Scientology is a good way to look at the world

Sorry not sorry

Any statements that would make you want to punch someone in the mouth will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

A team of one entered the jackpot, and wrote down the correct answer… but decided not to bother handing it in. If you’re already in it, you REALLY don’t lose anything by having a crack.

A team who had never won at our trivia asked early in round 2 what would happen if the building needed to be evacuated? Would their first half lead be considered a win? We spent the next half hour expecting a mysterious fire alarm but nothing happened, and they did hold on to snag their first win by a single point.

And with last week’s leaders failing to notch another win, there was a change at the top of our quarterly tournament.
