INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked a question about Olympic weightlifting, literally every team was miming the clean & jerk (with somewhat dodgy form).

One team won a quiz by a single point that they got because of cultural knowledge they picked up by watching the Simpsons.

When asked about Australian Prime Ministers, one team answered “Clive Palmer”. Don’t even joke about that!

And we’ve still got three undefeated teams in our weekly tournament.

See you next week.

A team told us they couldn’t hear the audio for question 20… you know, the picture question.

We had perhaps the biggest spill on an answer sheet we’ve ever seen.  Did they literally run it under the tap in the kitchen?

When asked to name the sports Australian Olympians competed, in, one team chose swimming for all five, when they knew it could only be right once.

And our new quarterly tournament is underway.

See you next week.

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team was determined to come last, and was disappointed to get the first bonus question. (Don’t worry, they still came last.)

One team called themselves “am not coming last at trivia”… and then came last.

We had five teams within 2 points of first place at one venue, and the teams in 3^rd & 4^th both could have won if they had bet 5 on the gambler’s question like the first place team.

To answer a question on countries on the exact opposite side of the world from New Zealand, one player built a globe out of a napkin and then stabbed it.

And our quarterly tournament has wound up with Masterminds winning for the first time with a big effort and 11 wins out of 12 weeks.

See you next week.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

Having lived in Colombia comes in handy when you recognise the names of Colombian Presidents.

And when we give you 100km of leeway in getting the distance from Cairns to Perth and you’re off by just 64, that means cash.

Cats: Furry alarm clocks with no snooze button

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked a question about Eye of the Tiger, and it was as though a karaoke night spontaneously broke out as half a dozen teams tried to figure out how many times the word “tiger” comes up in the song.

We watched one team lock in an answer they had whittled down to a 50-50, then debate it for 10 minutes, before changing it… to the wrong answer.

And we had a changing of the guard at the top of our leaderboard.  With one week to go, it could still go either way.

See you next week.

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We get that sometimes you want a question repeated. But you might want to wait until we finish the question instead of stopping us to ask for a repeat halfway through.

Similarly, if you want to complain about not being able to hear, it helps if you… how do we put this… shut the hell up when a question is asked.

One player didn’t listen to the jackpot question and only asked if they could change their answer after everything had been handed in. Cost their team over $100 cash.

And our leaders are still maintaining a 36 point lead as we approach the end of the quarter. There’s still plenty that can happen.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team complained about not getting credit for an answer with the argument “but that’s what we meant”. Uhhhhhh… no.

When we have to explain at length that NRL and AFL are different, we don’t hold out much hope for you getting a lot of correct answers on a sport question.

If we ask you to think of words that end with OOPS, complaining us that some words don’t end in OOPS is not a great criticism.

And we’ve had a change at the top of the table of our quarterly tournament.

See you next week.

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

They yelled out the answer loud enough for the whole room to hear, but fortunately for them, they were sufficiently incoherent that nobody understood them and they were the only ones to be right.

A small jackpot win is still a jackpot win.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

In what year ending in 29 was Jesus baptised? How about 29BC? You know, before he was born.

The last word in Georgie Porgie is… acid. Because nursery rhymes are getting way more drug oriented.

What is one of the varieties of camel starting with B? Bumpy. Well, you’re not wrong.

And our leaders are keeping pace at the top of the table, but we have a new leader for highest average after Fish and Friends managed their way into the top 12 with a huge 80 point win.

See you next week.

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

A few weeks after seriously messing up a wrong answers only bonus round, one of their players came up with a correct guess on Texan cities and they took home their first ever jackpot… and spent it all in about 20 minutes.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We quoted Sam Kerr’s statement after her acquittal, and someone thought it was Donald Trump. Ohhhhhh dear. Not even close!

When we played It’s A Wonderful Life, one player who is about 50 years younger was thrilled, noting that it’s his favourite movie and that he can’t watch it without breaking down. So much for “before my time”.

What’s the national anthem of Australia? We had guesses of Down Under by Men at Work, and You’re the Voice by John Farnham.

And we still have one team that has won every week and leads our quarterly tournament.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Someone mixed up the psychological horror thriller Hannibal with Pingu.

When asked to name a body part beginning with L, one player froze up and couldn’t think of anything for about 20 seconds, despite the fact that he was breathing with this body part, and standing on two of them.

And we have new leaders in our quarterly tournament, though this week they were playing in another city.

See you next week.
