King Trivia is Proud to present the Season #7 Buzzer Battle & $10,000 Tournament of Champions!
On Saturday January 21, 2017 King Trivia teams from across the nation will descend on Los Angeles, CA, to compete in this trivia spectacle and battle it out for $10,000.
The event will be split into two sections; The Buzzer Battle and The Tournament of Champions.
During the Buzzer Battle, ranked King Trivia teams will face off in an elimination match to determine who will sit at the King’s Table. The higher ranked you are going into the Buzzer Battle, the fewer teams you need to compete against to claim your seat at the coveted King’s Table.
The Tournament of Champions will be a standard King Trivia game with the exception of the larger than usual prize and the objective being to defeat the team at the King’s Table.
If the team at the King’s Table takes first place in the Tournament of Champions then they walk away with the entire $10,000 (plus bragging rights for a year). If the King’s Table does not take first place at the TOC, the prize will be split evenly between the King’s Table and every team that defeats them.
The Tournament of Champions is open to the public but only ranked teams may compete in the Buzzer Battle. This means that prior to the date of the Tournament of Champions and Buzzer Battle, participants wishing to partake in the Buzzer Battle will need to have registered their team atwww.kingtrivia.com, have played a regular season game and be ranked on the rankings page.
What You Need to Know
In order to win some cold hard cash, you don’t have to come in first; you only have to get a higher score than the King’s Table.
Tickets cost $20 each and are sold in blocks of 6 tickets. The maximum number of players allowed on a team is 6. If you would like assistance recruiting members for your team, we recommend first purchasing your tickets and then posting on our Facebook page to recruit members.
Rather than having a mad dash for the best table in the house, tables will be assigned. The quicker you purchase your tickets the better your table location will be.
Food and alcohol will be available for purchase at the event. What good is a pub quiz without the booze?
Prior to the start of the Tournament of Champions, all participants must provide complete registration information for all team participants. Without said information, King Trivia will not know who is participating in the TOC event, or to whom to award any prizes.
If you do leave the quiz area for any reason during a round you will not be allowed back in until that round is over.
Because this is a live competition there is a chance that the actual timing of the event may run over or under. King Trivia will work to keep as close to the posted schedule as possible. In the event that the Buzzer Battle finished earlier than expected than the earliest that the Tournament of Champions will begin is 7PM.
Cell phones and other connected devices are strictly prohibited. All phones, smart watches, headsets and/or similar items must either be in your pocket or in a receptacle provided by King Trivia specifically for this purpose. Any players and or teams with these devices out may at King Trivia’s sole discretion be ejected from the event without refund. IF YOU MUST USE YOUR PHONE FOR ANY REASON, LEAVE THE QUIZ AREA OR WAIT UNTIL THE EVENT IS BETWEEN ROUNDS.
