QUIZ RECAP

What a fun post-St. Patrick's Day re-meeting of drinking buddies. It was a only slightly damp night outside, but escaping the threat of torrential downpour 11 teams rushed into Pineapple Hill Saloon to test their mettle.

Usually quite bold, the regular teams all shied away from doubling-down in round one. Reconsidering their courage and scribbling frantic "we know we marked double-down, but we didn't mean it" notes to their quizmaster. EVERY team that took back their double-down would have found success, but merely took the full 6 points for round 1.

It would not be until round 3 that teams would gain enough confidence to try for double-points, and those that did were rewarded by their trivial knowledge.

Round 5 is where the game began to be decided with 4 teams scoring 20 points from their double downs, most of them repeating the success in at least one of the subsequent rounds.

Scoring high, all three placing teams finished with points in the eighties! Astonishing.
