INTERESTING MOMENTS

A team who assured us they were f”ckin awesome at trivia was deeply confused about a question asking them to name 5 countries that border Switzerland. They managed a total score of 1 point over the first half before quitting.

A team was rescued on one question by a teammate who turned up in the second half when she got a rugby league question. A team full of guys had no idea. The one girl on the team broke the stereotype.

The most common word ending in “le”? Jiggle was where on team’s mind went first.

And our leading teams didn’t win this week, so the race for the quarterly tournament title got closer.

See you next week.

They got nearly every point it was mathematically possible to get. Team name bonus, three bonus questions, 5 on the gambler’s, TriviArt bonus points. But even still, they got no points in the lightning round.

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.
