QUIZ RECAP

We had 14 teams join us for trivia Tuesday evening at Snakes & Lattes. Energy was high as we all gathered to begin with our first round.

In our General Knowledge themed Round 1 our teams had various responses to the questions. In the end We Thought This Was Kickball completed the round with the most amount of points at a total of 8 (after having added points for the team number).

Round 2 asked our teams to identify books that had been banned just based on an image of the cover. If You Got It Flaunt It decided to play their Double or Nothing for this round and was able to earn 14 additional points for their team! This use of the Double or Nothing also brought them up to first place with a total of 20 points! Just 6 points ahead of the second place team, which at this time was Stardust Crusaders.

Round 3 was filled with references to secretaries of all sorts! Personally I had never known that a secretary was a style of desk prior to this game. Rock 'Em Sock 'Em was one of the only teams to get all of the answers correct in this round.

Round 4 this week was a Guess Who theme. A majority of our teams were able to correctly guess our mystery man, but The Best and Rock 'Em Sock 'Em were the teams to get the answer before everyone else allowing their teams to earn 8 additional points in this round. The person we were searching for was Bryan Cranston. My personal favorite incorrect answer this round was Michael Fassbender.

Our teams struggled a bit in Round 5 as they sought out the common theme in the answers. Stardust Crusaders boldly chose to play their Double or Nothing in this round, and lucky for them it paid off nicely as they left the round with 18 extra points. The Stardust Crusaders and If You Got It Flaunt It were the only 2 teams to correctly identify the commonality as being from the Bill & Ted movies.

Round 6 was a tasty round this week as our teams had to match each fictional food/drink to the fantasy world they exist in. Our most commonly mismatched item was the viameatavegamin which many thought was from Doctor Who, but is actually from I Love Lucy. Moose on the Loose and Sharpies Are Markers both played their Double or Nothing for this round. For Moose on the Loose this paid off and allowed them to leave the round with 20 extra points! While Sharpies Are Markers missed just 1 of their answers and were unable to earn any points for this round.

Finally in Round 7 our teams were asked to name the countires that are the top 10 producers of coconuts. We Thought This Was Kickball played their Double or Nothing for this round and unfortunately missed 1 of their answers.

In a surprise twist we had a tie for first place between Moose on the Loose and Stardust Crusaders. In order to break the tie they had to answer (as closely as possible) 'in millions, what is the population of the United Kingdom?" The StarDust Crusaders answered 38 million, while Moose on The Loose answered 60 million. The correct answer was 67.59 million, so the winning point went to Moose on the Loose!
