King Trivia at The Lumber Yard is the best way to escape the rain!
In a tough Round 1, teams faced a wide variety of general knowledge questions that kept anyone from correctly answering all six questions.
But Round 2 proved to be much more aligned to our teams' areas of expertise. Not only did We Can Make It If We Try know all six famous pets, and the TV show they "lived" on, they pulled far ahead of the pack with a total of 16 points with the help of the Double-or-Nothing option.
In Round 3, it was Lime Skittles who flexed their skills and their confidence, answering all six questions about Hawaii correctly and also going Double-or-Nothing.
For Round 4, usually the toughest round of the night, we were back to the good old "Guess Who?" version of the round. No team offered a guess after the 10 point clue, but newcomers 3 Guys 1 Cup knew I was describing Academy Award Winner Octavia Spencer after the next clue for 8 points!
By Round 5, scores were getting closer among the teams. Both Vince and Lime Skittles correctly answered most questions, and knew the common thread was "flowers/gardening" and snagged 9 points for the round. But it was heartbreak for last week's champs, Flag Hags who tried to go Double or Nothing, but confused their Marvel superheroes and ended up with zero points for round 5.
Round 6 showed we had quite a few fans of British slang. 3 Guys 1 Cup, Lime Skittles, and Flag Hags all got every answer right! But, Lime Skittles and Flag Hags added 20 points to their total by checking the Double-or-Nothing box!
The final round of the night offered a different approach than weeks past. But, the change up didn't prove too tough of a challenge for the teams. We Can Make It If We Try were successful in getting all 10 possible answers correct - and doubled up for 20 points!
In the end though, it was Lime Skittles who found themselves back on top with 64 points! We Can Make It If We Try finished in 2nd with 58 points, and Flag Hags finished in 3rd with 43 points!
Thanks as always, Lumber Yard. We'll see ya'll next week - same time, same place!
