QUIZ RECAP

It was a bit chilly on the patio at Cactus Jack's tonight, keeping the turnout low....but the game was great! Phil & The Buttercups and All The Dicks were high scorers in Round 1 with 5 of a possible 6, but Road Kill bounced back to top Round 2 (along with the Buttercups), scoring 6 out of 8.  The Guess Who round was a tough one tonight, as only two teams got it right, and only on the 2 point clue. The Buttercups were high scorers in the Find The Connection Round with 9, as the other two teams each tallied 8. (NB: though The Dicks' answer to Q7 "River" was arguably correct, the answer had to be "Rivers" to fit the theme)

The Dicks got 10 of a possible 10 in the Handout Round (6) to close to within a point of the leaders....but the Buttercups held on by scoring 10 out of 10 in the final round to win by 2 points.  My thanks to all the players, and to the staff at Cactus Jacks; your regular quizmaster will be back next week.  Thanks all!!

QUIZ RECAP

It was a beautiful night at Cactus Jack's, and the patio was full; only three teams saw fit to play, while several others "followed along".

The game started with two teams, and a party of two sat down just as I was asking question 5 in Round 1 and asked if they could still play; they signed up, caught up....and won the night! All The Dicks jumped out to the early led with 5 of a possible 6 in Round 1, with 67 Impala right behind with 4; The Dicks also were high scorers in Round 2 with 6 out of 8, but the game remained tight as 67 Impala and First Place each tallied 5. 67 Impala jumped out in front by hitting a successful double-or-nothing in Round 3 (12 points), but when The Dicks and 67 Impala each took a -1 in the Guess Who Round, First Place's correct answer for 4 points left all 3 teams within 5 points. 67 Impala were high scorers in Round 5 (8 out of 10) but First Place leapfrogged everyone with a successful double in the Handout Round for 20 points. They were also high scorers in the final round to cruise home to the win with 51 points.

I had a great time, I look forward to doing it all again next week at Cactus Jack's!

QUIZ RECAP

It was an excellent showing at Cactus Jack's on Wednesday, with Short-Form Memory ultimately taking home the crown with a Threepeat!  Fun was had by all, with the regulars having a close battle and some newbies joining in on the fun!

In the General Knowledge round, Short-Form Memory and Tu Madre started strongly ahead with 5 points each, and 73 Roadkill trailed with only 3. 

The Picture Round featured female rappers, and by daring to Double or Nothing, All the Dicks moved into first place with 20 points! 

In the loser Themed Round, All the Dicks maintained their lead with 24 points, but Short-Form Memory was able to decipher the clues in the Guess Who? Round to be Gwenyth Paltrow long before the only other correct guess (All the Dicks) moving into a very close second place! 

In the playing card themed Round 6, both Short-Form Memory and 73 Roadkill were successful in their attempts to Double or Nothing, bringing Short-Form Memory into a 10 point lead and a second place tie for 73 Roadkill and All the Dicks. 

The SNL themed matching round saw the same two teams Double or Nothing and win again, putting them in solid 1st and 2nd Place, and the famous painter question for Round 7 proved to not move anyone too far ahead. 

Short-Form Memory and 73 Roadkill both took home giftcards, and I hope to see everyone again soon!
