WINNERS

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

JACKPOT

They forgot to write down their team name on their jackpot answer sheet, so we made them declare that they were idiots who can’t follow simple instructions. But the win still counted.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about how many Friday the 13ths there are in 2024, half the team methodically calculated things, and half just took a guess. And the results were about the same for both groups.

One team got every question in round 1 right, with the exception of the title of an Ariana Grande song, which they will remember until the day they die.

We had a team come all the way from Cronulla, and they got a question on Cronulla wrong.

Who was Prime Minister in 2001? Steve Irwin wasn’t it?

And our overall leaders in the quarterly tournament are steady, but we have new leaders on highest average.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team forgot to do their homework on early US Vice Presidents, so they just started listing names they could remember from Hamilton, and wound up getting three of them.

When we ask a bonus question about Belgian cities, it’s a lot easier to win when someone on your team is literally from the first city we mention.

And when presented with the letter R in out category bonus round, one team kept trying to make “roofies” work.

And we’ve got new leaders in our quarterly tournament, but it’s very close as two teams have four wins and the difference is only two points.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team was caught cheating before we finished reading the first question. They couldn’t make it a single question before looking up Grease on their phone right in front of us.

We had to explain to more than one team that Antarctica is not a country.

There was a picture of a dolphin’s skull, and one team amusing guessed that it was Harold Holt. Well, it would explain why they never found him.

And we have just one team that still has a perfect record after four weeks of our quarterly tournament, and the same team as last week leading on average.

See you next week.

WINNERS

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

JACKPOT

Coming last in trivia stings a lot less when you win $140 in the jackpot.

And it’s also nice when you finish first and also win the jackpot, though the other teams are more likely to hate on you.

TEAM NAMES

It was a nice change of pace to have compliments as team names.

You’re like the cool side of the pillow

You look like you’d follow a word limit

Would

Nice ass

Your mother is a nice lady

INTERESTING MOMENTS

The Frenchman working behind the bar gave away the answer when we asked teams to identify the language of a cover version of a Beatles song.

We asked what Australian state the Gawler Ranges were in, and one team asked us to explain what we meant. I mean… there’s not really much to explain. Just pick a state.

One team managed their first ever win after a year or so of coming 7th… right before they move out of town.

And we’ve got three teams over the 200 mark three weeks into our quarterly tournament, and one team way up at 82 on average scores.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Sometimes we ask easy questions that we intend to be a cinch for everyone. Like what year ending in 29 that the Oscars were first awarded… and one team answered 1919.

When you don’t care about reality TV, you come up with fake names. Like Ultimate Banana, Sexy Time, and King Gopher: Munching Lettuce on the Down Low.

And in a week with lot’s of Taylor Swift content, we had a lot of teams get really annoyed… at themselves for not knowing as much as they thought.

And after 8 weeks of our quarterly tournament, there’s just one point in it.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We found out that one of our players counts on her fingers with all her fingers out, and then putting them down with each passing number.  Which is objectively weird.

You know that book Alison in Wonderland?

If you talk constantly and then complain that you can hear anything, we’re not going to take you seriously. If we ask you for a language beginning with J in which “thank you” translates as “arigato” and you leave it blank, our questions being too hard might not be the problem.

We noticed that one of our team had the same women every week, but different guys. It turns out the ladies were finding guys on Tinder and inviting them to trivia. So if you match with some 20 something girls in Sydney, you might wind up at one of our quizzes.

And after six weeks, somehow we have a tie in our quarterly tournament, with two teams tied on 5 wins and 368 points.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked whether people would rather have no thumbs, or only thumbs, one team based their decision on what option would make lifting a pint glass easier. They had their priorities straight.

What question did Elmo ask that went viral? “Where the bad bitches at?”

What ship did Jason take to search for the Golden Fleece? The Titanic.

A lot of teams were absolutely certain that Dawson’s Creek was set in North Carolina. Some were so certain they were almost smug about it. And then they came undone when they realised that we didn’t ask where Dawson’s Creek was filmed, but where it was set.

The Smith Family currently leads the quarterly tournament with 301 points off 4 wins.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked about Australian Prime Ministers and got answers of Steve Irwin & The Stingray.

The number of days since Jimmy Carter was President was estimated within less than 100 out of nearly 16,000.

On the other hand, one team thought there were 205 goals kicked in the 2023 AFL Grand Final. That’s a LOT of goals.

Perhaps the most creative answer we’ve gotten in the categories bonus round for things in the sky beginning with the letter S… Snakes on a Plane.

And here’s where we stand in the quarterly tournament.

See you next week.

JACKPOT

Whether they actually knew how badly the Rabbitohs did over about 40 years, they won a jackpot for getting the number of wooden spoons right.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked teams to name five Australian cities, we had to explain that we didn’t want you to name one city five times.

A ballet beginning with G? How About Grease? And SB? Maybe Soulja Boy.

The Mario Puzo novel set in New York with the initials TG? The Grinch. And surely A Tree Grows In Brooklyn is a less compelling title than All Them Girls Is Bangin’.

And Cuck is still leading our quarterly tournament with 3 wins in 3 weeks.

See you next week.
