INTERESTING MOMENTS
When we asked about Robert DeNiro films, one team put The Godfather as their answer for three of the five questions. Maybe they’re REALLY big fans of that film.
Never leave a question blank. On a question on how to spell the names of languages in that language, one team just wrote down Maori because they didn’t know how to say Maori in Maori, only to find out that Maori in Maori… is Maori.
When the answer is Oskar Schindler, and your answer is Hitler… that’s about as wrong as you can get.
And the quarterly tournament has a week left, and it looks like first place is locked up. But there are still a few teams that can plausibly win for highest average among the top 12.
