INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about actors in a clip we played of Moana, one player identified Alan Tudyk as the rooster.  We listened again, and sure enough you could hear him making rooster noises.  And that sufficiently obscure to warrant a bonus point.

If you’re a veteran player you probably know that on a bonus question, you get only one guess if the answer is a number. One player guessed twice, and we were all set to add one to their total when it was brought to our attention that their winning guess was their second guess.

Things said in our Challenge Quiz: “I forgot six was a number.”

The sequel to 300 was 301.

A Belgian got a question on Belgian beer wrong.

One of our hosts was mistaken for Jason Statham.

See you next week.

This Week in iQ Trivia – 6 June 2020

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

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

TriviArt

Secret Helicopter

Rusty Marine

Loose Cactus

Flatulent Bruise

Absurd Brain Surgery

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team answered a bonus question with “Eric Banner”, and a split second later someone else answered with “Eric Bana”. And right when we thought we were about to have an argument on our hands, the first respondent admitted “no im wrong, im an idiot”. Take note people. THAT is how to act when you’re wrong. Not whinging about how “it’s close enough and you know what I meant.”

When you google the homework question, you can’t just take the answer Google spits out at you. You may have to actually click on a link instead of reading a list of Vietnamese Provinces and naming the first four without checking to see they are the largest by area.

We listed a bunch of notable people, including Princess Diana and asked what they all had in common. Someone said they all died in “accidents”.

We hosted a corporate show for a company making kitchen appliances, and in the bonus lightning round, we wound up eliminating one team when they failed to identify a freezer as a device paired with a refrigerator that keeps food very cold. Whether someone was fired afterwards, we really can’t say.

And iQ Trivia is back to playing in venues again… sort of. One of our teams this week went back to their local at To All My Friends in Canberra, and played online trivia IN the pub.

We do hope to see more of this, and to get back to live trivia soon.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

On Wednesday, one team managed to get LITERALLY every bonus point available to them. Three bonus questions, the team name, and two on the TriviArt. Impressive.

The Khmer Rouge was apparently led by a guy named Paul Potts.

And we asked a dilemma question about whether you would return $1,000 you found in a hotel room. One team responded by saying they would return all $500.

See you next week.

The team that bought a drink for a Korean patron who wasn’t even playing trivia because we asked a question about Korean animal sounds.

The British team who insisted they be allowed to answer with the British Prime Minister instead of the Australian Prime Minister on a history question… and then getting it wrong anyway.

The team that bet Pi points on the gambler’s question, and wound up winning by 0.14159 points.

And the player who lost a bet on a question, and who apparently now needs to get a tattoo. By next week we will know if they’ve followed through.

See you next week for more iQ Trivia.
