Ohh keep the chemistry questions coming, King Trivia- Acidic Cleavage is a group of chemistry majors and since they've been playing there has been at least one chemistry-related question every week. Let's keep it going!
Welp, this week the Pasadena Peeps has an unusual week in that they didn't place. Instead, Club Obi-Wan took third and a tie was broken by I Quiz in Your General Direction to take first with PhilosoRaptors taking second.
Congrats to Make it Reign for knowing the full name of Los Angeles and getting closest to it (El Pueblo de Nuestra Se?ora La Reina de los ?ngeles del R?o de Porci?ncula)- they got 11 out of the 14 words!
Possibly the first time all teams were registered- nice since I didn't need to make the announcement on why some teams got two extra points in round one 😉

After a week off for Thanksgiving Thursday, we were back at it at Barney's Pasadena. Missing a couple of regular teams, we had a good time all the same, with the drinking round being won by Brain Farts. I had the teams make paper airplanes and the team that got theirs closest to me (my feet) won. Brain Farts also took third place, with Purple Monkey Dishwasher just missing out on gold, and Pasadenian Toothfish taking first.

'Twas a fun night with all these teams, for the drinking round I had them name as many 6-letter elements from the periodic table as possible, and wouldn't you know it- we had a table of chem majors. They (Acidic Cleavage) got 16 out of 17, missing only Indium!
In the end, Second Cousins took third, with I Quiz in Your General Direction (two person team- wow!) taking second, and the Pasadena Peeps taking first. Birthday shout out (and accompanying pic!) to Da Bears' Laikin (sp?)
