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

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

It was a pretty good week for jackpots.

And we would have given away another, except that the only team who knew the answer had chosen not to play in the jackpot round. You’ve got to be in it to win it people!

TEAM NAMES

You’re pretty dumb, if the injuries you’ve suffered are anything to go by.

I broke a bone in my foot trying to do a forward roll while choreographing a dance routine to Feel Good Inc by Gorillaz.

Hot tub toaster party

Trying to iron the pants you’re wearing

Doing yoga under a ceiling fan

Bumped my head on a “watch your head” sign

I dabbed so hard my shoulder popped out

Severed my tongue on a trampoline

Run over by an ambulance

I split my chin open sliding down the stairs on a quilt

I got a paper cut on my butt

I have a dent in my head from a T-ball bat

Splitting your head while opening an umbrella

Tried to suck my own dick, got a hernia

Bleached my eyeballs with a contact lens

Ruptured spleen tackling a snowman that turned out to be a statue covered in snow

While camping, we filled a bucket with seawater for drinking

Me with an axe: “I know what I’m doing”. Me five seconds later: “… I have a bandaid.”

INTERESTING MOMENTS

A map of South East Asia looked suspiciously like a dong.

When we asked about the injury that kept Steve Smith out of the Ashes, someone pointed out, rather cleverly, that the ball had tampered with him.

We asked about the song lyric “how many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man” and one team answered that it was sung by “Jenny in Forrest Gump” which is not technically wrong.

When trying to think of European cities beginning with H, one team but Helsinki… and then said Helsinki again. Either because they thought it was so big it had to be mentioned twice, or they thought there were two cities called Helsinki in Europe.

Apparently the famous line “when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that’s amore” was performed by the Super Mario Brothers and not Dean Martin.

And on a question on whether men or women have colder hands, one team answered the question and explained why, perfectly anticipating the fact that we would be asking a follow up question on why in the second half.

See you next week.

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

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

It was a big week for jackpots.

A couple of teams won jackpots for knowing about Canadian Prime Ministers.

One of them chose to donate what was left from a round of Alizé to next week’s jackpot.

And these two were thrilled to have won, having been coaxed into trivia for the first time just two weeks ago.

TEAM NAMES

It turns out you love a lot of things that other people hate.

And some of you may have some serious problems, like the team who said they like “Incest.” We even asked them if they were sure they wanted to go with that. We’re still hoping that’s a joke… somehow.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked whether or not Christopher Columbus could have gotten to Asia if North America hadn’t been in the way, and one team responded that you can do anything if you set your mind to it. Sure. But not if you and your whole crew has starved to death.

We asked for the largest cities in California. Someone said “Canberra”. No… just… no.

And the jackpots are building up. We nearly gave one away this week, but someone was just 11 grams off on a question of the weight of a block of gold.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We got a complaint that a song from 1997 was too old.

Someone guessed that the line following ‘it’s a long way to Tipperary” was “but an even longer way to the top if you wanna rock and roll.”

Someone guessed that Shakespeare wrote a play about Romeo & Joanne.

And we got a number of very odd wrong answers in a lightning round.

The force keeping you on the ground is “guilt”.

People who observe Yom Kippur are “jokers”.

And according to Devo, when a problem comes along, you must… wank.

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

They came in first for the quiz, and topped that off by winning a jackpot by knowing about The Blacklist.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

A largely Indian team got a question on Indian languages wrong.

We asked if Christina Aguilera was alive when certain events happened, and one team listed her as dead, when they could have just said “no”.

One team inexplicably tore their answer sheet in two… for reasons we still can’t figure out.

Someone asked us if the Winter Olympics count as Olympics. Uhhhhhhh… yes. The Winter OLYMPICS are part of the OLYMPICS.

And when we asked if any Australian Prime Minister had lived to be 100, one team argued the answer was yes, because the body of Harold Holt has never been recovered and they assumed him to still be alive.

See you next week.

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

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

They had entirely the wrong thought process in the jackpot round. But they were wrong in such a way that they wound up getting the right answer in spite of themselves.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked about the two ways a rugby union team can get 8 points in a match, and one team who lacked rugby expertise went with “one try & one bribe of the referee”.

One player got personally offended on behalf of Julia Roberts when they found out how little she made for making the film Pretty Woman. Really, they ranted for a good three or four minutes.

When we showed a painting of the beheading of Marie Antoinette, one team guessed that it was Joan of Arc in the 1890s. Wrong method of execution, and off by well over 500 years. Another player who was overruled silenced the room by shouting “I TOLD you it was the 1790s.”

A player came in from Brisbane to attend one of our shows. (And possibly a little bit for visiting other people.)

And one player came back to iQ Trivia after a long stint overseas. After five years, one of the first things she did after coming back was to look up where her nearest iQ Trivia show was.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We had to explain to teams that Russia is spelled with the letter A, and that Narnia is not actually a suburb in Sydney.

We asked a question about the Battle of Stalingrad, and were asked if the answer was “funny”. Funny. Stalingrad. Perhaps the first time those words were said together.

Most of the teams at one show thought that New Orleans was a state.

One player came out despite being sick, and concluded that trivia and beer improved their health.

There was yet another incident of players singing the answer to a music question, in this case the 1940s hit Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B.

And someone guessed that the film Blade Runner was based on the novel My Struggle by Oscar Pistorious.

See you next week.

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

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

For the record, if your team is made up entirely of white South Africans, cheering when we mention Nelson Mandela going to prison is kind of a bad look. (Even if you’re just cheering because you got the question right.)

And one of our hosts came home from holiday early, hid in the corner of his usual show, and went completely unnoticed until he revealed himself in the most dramatic way possible.

See you next week.

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

WINNERS

If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

They were justifiably confident on their knowledge of American Psycho and won $147.

They knew just enough about Italian geography to win.

And one more team won their jackpot because one of their opponents was one letter off so they were the only team to get it exact. They offered to donate it back for another question, which neither team got. That’s how much they like trivia. They gave up cash just to hear more questions.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked what was right next to Deep Space Nine in the Star Trek universe, and one team, not knowing their Star Trek, went with Deep Space Eight.

In addition to your back, one team answered that you would find the “Dimples of Venus” on the face of Venus Williams.

Worf from Star Trek was described as “that Klingon dude with the weird shit on his forehead”.

And when we were looking for famous Shirleys, one team ran out of Shirleys and started guessing “Shirlize Theron” and “Shirquille O’Neal”.

See you next week.
