QUIZ RECAP

It was another great turnout at Collision Brewing this week, for the special "Birthday edition" of King Trivia...and yes, we brought enough cake for everyone!

Greenland Realty and Trebek's Rejects were the only teams to get all 6 right in Round 1 AND the only teams to convert a double-or-nothing in Round 2; this set the tone for the evening as those 2 teams battled for 1st place all night (though 4-Way Stop did get all 8 right in Round 2!). Gold vs. Gold and Twivia each doubled successfully in the theme round (#3) to stay within hailing distance of the lead, but the top 2 teams pulled away down the stretch to separate themselves from the field. Rejected Llamas were steady and provided much of the comic relief on the night (their creativity when they don't know the correct answer never disappoints!), and hats off to first-timers Limoncello , who scored a 6 (of 8) in Round 2 and 7 (of 10) in Round 5.

Greenland Realty were the only team to correctly "Guess Who" for 8 points, and that was the difference on the night. That answer moved them 3 points in front of Trebek's Rejects after 4 rounds. The Rejects made up 2 points in Round 5 (9-7), and both teams answered all 10 correctly in the handout round (#6), leaving them separated by a single point entering the final round. Greenland Realty outscored Trebek's Rejects 7-6 in Round 7 to win for the 2nd consecutive week, this time by 2 points; Gold vs. Gold claimed 3rd place comfortably, well in front of 4-Way Stop (who never recovered from a -1 in the Guess Who round).

It was a great game, it was a great night, and I thank all the players for singing Happy Birthday to both me AND my wife, it was a night we won't soon forget. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend, everyone, see you next week!
