DATELINE: June 28th, 2022 - Shakertin's at The Village in Allen, TX.
As June wraps up we had four of our regular teams show up for trivia entanglements. All players were seasoned and the playing was as steely as this quiz master has ever witnessed as evidenced by the pronounced yet judicious use of the deadly Double-or-Nothing! The DoN was used a total of seven times with only one failure!
One Left in the Chamber dominated early, swooping up first place with a whopping 80 point score! The struggle for second was where the drama was, with Deadly Alliance eventually capturing that spot while the Bumble Bees got shouldred into third. The old school, Wossa Matta-U under performed slightly but still finished last with a respectable 47 points.
The toughest round turned out to be the Picture Round in which the players had to identify the actor guest starring in a Star Trek project. Chris Hemworth got criss-crossed with Chris Pine. Kirsten Dunst was mistaken for Rebecca DeMornay. The guesses of desperation came fast and furious, hoping to earn silly style points (which don't count towards final score). Tig Notaro was pegged for Caitlyn Jenner or "that actor from The Good Doctor". Tom Hardy in make-up was tagged Yul Brynner, Jr. Other, dishonorable mentions included Anonymous Smith and Anonymous Jones. Mia Farrow got thrown in for good measure.
That's all the news that fits! See you next week!
