QUIZ RECAP

This was definitely a quieter game of trivia composed of dedicated veterans. It was time for some heavy hitters to face off. In Round 1 both Yorkshire Puddings and Golden Gurlz got 4 points. Elifino should have doubled, but had the lead at 8. In Round 2, Golden Gurlz took the lead with a double, and Yorkshire Puddings should have doubled. It was the same in Round 3, Yorkshire Puddings failing to double yet again.

Elifino and Golden Gurlz earned 6 points in the Guess Who round, and Yorkshire Puddings got 4. In Round 5, Yorkshire Puddings finally doubled, but this time they missed a question so they got 0 points for the round. They were not lucky that night. Golden Gurlz and Elifino did really well, however, getting 9 points each.

We then took a break from trivia to build paper planes! Each team carefully engineered their paper flying machines to absolute precision, knowing that each minor tweak to their creation could win or lose them a free round of beer. They stepped up to the line to try out their entries. Elifino had a respectable throw, getting halfway down the bocce ball court. Yorkshire Puddings were up next, and suffered due to a sloppy fold. Then Golden Gurlz stepped up and threw their plane about 66% of the way down the court. The only team between them and sweet drinking round glory was late-round entrant Smarty Pints. They threw, but threw short despite a successful test throw in the bar. Golden Gurlz won the drinking round, but could they win it all?

Maybe not, as in Round 6 they only got 5 points. Yorkshire Puddings again should have doubled, but didn't. The points for Round 7 were similar. Yorkshire Puddings got 7, Golden Gurlz got 7, and Elifino got 8. There was now a tie for 1st between Elifino and Golden Gurlz. They got the tie-breaker question: "How many calories are in Outback Steakhouse's regular Bloomin' Onion?" Elifino guessed 2,500 calories and Golden Gurlz guessed 2,300. The answer was 1,950 calories, making Golden Gurlz the winners of the night! With this game, you can really see how important the Double or Nothing is. Yorkshire Puddings would have won with 63 points if they doubled on all the rounds they were correct on. That's a whole 24 points that they missed out on. Something tells me that we'll see more Double or Nothings from them in the future.
