INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked if you’d rather be trapped in a room with a tiger snake or 30 funnel web spiders, and one team’s answer was Sabrina Carpenter… which we’re pretty sure was a mistake based on the audio question that came before.

One team opted on the dilemma question for living on a traffic island rather than the Jurassic Park island, but noted that they actually would have preferred the dinosaurs… and that was the decisive vote in a 7-6 decision. So they played it perfectly. Either way they were going to win.

A team who said they weren’t going to play… still stayed and created their own answer sheet.

And our leaders have managed to win every week so far.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One player cheered for prostate cancer & hemophilia.

When we asked a leaked current events question about where Katy Perry got trapped, two teams went with “in a relationship with Justin Trudeau”.

Having bid that they could name 7 Shakespearean tragedies, one team just gave up and walked back to their seat. We’ve never seen anyone quit so readily.

And our leaders have maintained their place at the top of our tournament leader board.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team gave us a summary of the plot of To Kill A Mockingbird including character names, but couldn’t remember the name of the book.

One player had sufficiently little faith in his teammates that he charged back from the bar in the middle of ordrering to answer a question rather than risk them messing it up.

When we asked for London football clubs, we didn’t expect someone to go with Liverpool.

And our quarterly tournament has a clear leader as we approach the half way point.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

If you want to contest a question on Transformers vs Electronic music, and you have highly detailed info on an obscure Transformers character AND a Transformers chest tattoo… we’re probably going to take your word for it.

We got a complaint that a 1991 Morgan Freeman film was “before my time” despite the fact that they got a 1989 Morgan Freeman film which was even more “before their time”.

We expected when we asked about states that had a city called Kansas City, that everyone would go for Kansas. Three teams went for Texas instead.

One team nearly got a jackpot, but their answer was Kirribatti instead of Kiribati. Them’s the rules.

And our quarterly tournament has a new leader.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Team that lost an NRL grand final? The Swans. Well I would think so, given that they don’t even play the sport.

When we asked teams to identify the film given frequently asked question, one team not only got it, but answer the questions too.

One team noted that they were very angry about a question on gravity. Why they were angry at one of the fundamental forces of the universe we don’t know.

And we have new leaders with a slim lead in our quarterly tournament.

See you next week.

One very performative team didn’t just answer that a classical clip was Ode to Joy, they acted it out.

Where was Love Island UK filmed? Epstein Island said one team.

And we’ve got new leaders in the quarterly tournament, and a score of 80 as the highest average.

Teams the Wallabies have lost to a lot… Penrith Panthers, Eels, and Brisbane Tigers. None of which play rugby union, and one of which isn’t even a team in anything.

Shakespeare plays ending with T? How about Macbett, and The Taming of the C*nt?

Countries with R as the second letter? How about the Frilippines?

When the last place subject was Cher, one team guessed that one of the answers would be auto-tune… and then we asked about the Cher Effect as heard on her song Believe.

And our quarterly tournament has restarted.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We had a picture question on fonts, and one team had products with both fonts on their table… and got them both wrong.

Bruce Willis’ character in The Sixth Sense? “The dead guy”. Well, it’s not wrong.

One team saw a high school photo of Kevin Rudd and thought it was Julia Gillard. That long 70s hair can really throw you.

And our quarterly tournament has a result, with The Smith Family taking top spot, and That Sounds Like A You Problem having the highest average.

See you next week.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

Just a reminder that your jackpot answers have to be EXACT.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

If you ask Chat GPT our Google auto-complete question… yes… that IS cheating. And it didn’t even give you the right answer.

Two teams had drastically different reactions to the song “Like a G6”. All blank faces on one side of the room… singing and dancing along on the other.

We got a guess of Mongolia when we asked about most common countries of birth in Australia in 1911. And it wasn’t a “well put that down because we have nothing else”. They were really confident.

And there’s one week left in our quarterly tournament, and we’ve got a tie on highest average.  So if you are one of the tied teams there will be a tiebreaker question on next week’s quiz.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked about films that share their names with cities, and one team mistook Casablanca for Canberra. Having Humphrey Bogart run a bar in Tuggeranong would have been a very different movie.

We have a team that always guesses 11 when given a bonus question to which they get just one guess. It’s a matter of principle for them to guess 11 before they actually hear the question. This week, they guessed 11 was the year the FIFA World Cup was cancelled for the first time, and it was also the year that the last woman was hanged in Australia.

One team admitted that a picture question involving Meryl Streep dressed as a Rabbi and Taylor Swift dressed as a man made them question their sexuality.

And our leaders are still on top but it’s close and there are a number of teams that can reel them in in the final weeks of our quarterly tournament.

See you next week.
