QUIZ RECAP

A photo finish to a consistently close game this week at Brouwerij West! Throughout the evening, almost all our teams stayed within ten points of each other, leading to a rare DOUBLE-TIEBREAKER. But only three can emerge with prizes!

In the end, The Amigos + 1 & Proxy came out on top with 59 points! They guessed in the tiebreaker that Crater Lake was 2,000 feet -- and it was 1,945. Their tiebreaker win followed two consecutive doubles in the last rounds, boosting them from almost-last to very-first. That meant second place went to Cool Princess 500 with 59 points, as their tiebreaker guess was 1,800 feet -- a very, very narrow second place after a high-scoring game and a Round 7 double! In third came The Test Tickles with 58 points, whose 1,700-foot tiebreaker guess was a bit closer than The Brewsual Suspects' 10,000-foot guess. A nailbiter! Well done, all teams!

QUIZ RECAP

A warm reception back to my beloved Brouwerij West after last week's absence was exactly the medicine this poor raspy Quizmaster needed! That, along with the honey and tea I slammed all night, kept my throat from completely fleeing my body during our game. And what a game it was!

In the end, it was The Test Tickles who hiked their way all the way up to 79 points to grab first! With doubles in Rounds 1, 2, and 5 and near-perfect scores in the last couple rounds, they firmly secured their place in the top spot. They were followed by The Brewsual Suspects in second at 68 points! Their only scoring difference from the first-place team was one answer in Round 2 -- and of course, a lack of that two-point bonus from a registered team number. In third came 900 Dollarydoo$ with 64 points, who rocked back and forth in the early rounds with a successful double in Round 2 and an unsuccessful attempt in Round 3. A well-placed Round 5 double brought them back up into range to grab third place. Well done, all teams!

A reminder, though, that if a member of your team is holding a device that could be used as an outside source, your team will not be able to score points for that round -- or, as we saw last night, a tiebreaker. Keep those phones in pockets, just to be safe!

The Lead changed and the lead changed. Cool Princess 500 finally ended up with first place after a couple successful doubles rocketed them to the first place finish. Rainbows and Air Vehicles and the Test Tickles battled it out for the tie. Rainbows and Air Vehicles knew their Arnold Schwarzenegger trivia just a little bit better. They walked away with second. Thanks to the good folks at Brouwerij West for all their delicious brews. It was a night of trivia and fun!
