QUIZ RECAP

On Wednesday May 22nd at College Bar & Grill, 5 teams came together to test their trivia knowledge. Our teams for the evening were P.O.O.P., Five Dollar Pitchers, Team Bippus, Thund3rC4tz, and Uncertainty Principle.

Our Round 1 general knowledge theme seemed to be a bit tricky for all our players last night. Not including the +2 points for registering their teams, the most amount of points earned this round were just 3 points to team P.O.O.P.

In Round 2, teams Thund3rC4tz and Team Bippus were able to correctly guess all of the persons on the covers of the "Who Was?" book series! At the end of the round team P.O.O.P. and team Thund3rC4tz were in a tie for first place with 12 points. In second with 10 points was Team Bippus, and in a tie for fourth with 8 points were teams Five Dollar Pitchers and Uncertainty Principle.

All of our teams earned either 4 or 3 points in Round 3. Team Bippus and Uncertainty Principle even got all of the same questions correct. By the end P.O.O.P. and Thund3rC4tz were at a tie for first place with 15 points. Shortly behind in second with 14 points was Team Bippus. In third with 12 points was Uncertainty Principle and in fourth was Five Dollar Pitchers with 11 points.

Round 4 seemed to be fairly easy for 3 of our teams, who were able to guess Ed Sheeran after just 2 clues. These teams were Thund3rC4tz, Team Bippus, and 5 Dollar Pitchers who each earned 8 points for their teams. Uncertainty Principle incorrectly guessed Kit Harrington, meaning they lost a point for their team. P.O.O.P. was able to guess Ed Sheeran after our fourth clue, earning 4 points for their team.

Two teams guessed the connection of our questions in Round 5! Those teams were P.O.O.P. and Team Bippus. P.O.O.P. even played their Double or Nothing in this round earning their team a total of 18 points! By the end of this round P.O.O.P. regained first place with a total of 37 points. In a tie for second with 29 points were Team Bippus and Thund3rC4tz. In third with 22 points were Five Dollar Pitchers. In fourth was Uncertainty Principle with 14 points.

2 teams decided to play their Double or Nothing plays in Round 6, unfortunately it did not work for either of them. These teams were Uncertainty Principle and Thund3rC4tz. Thund3rC4tz had only gotten one of their answers incorrect assuming that Community took place in New York as opposed to Colorado. Team P.O.O.P. was able to guess all of the answers correctly and Team Bippus only missed two of their answers, while Five Dollar Pitchers missed four of their answers.

We had a lot of Will Smith fans in the bar last night! Uncertainty Prinicple even got 9 out of the 10 films correct. Five Dollar Pitchers, Team Bippus, and P.O.O.P. each got 8 of the films correct while Thund3rC4tz guessed 7 of them correctly.

QUIZ RECAP

On Wednesday night May 15th College Bar & Grill had 5 teams compete for their chance to win $100 dollars! Our teams for the evening were Team One & Only, Lamda Gama, Thund3rCatz, Smatinis, and Buy A Beet, they're good.

In Round 1 3 of our 5 teams finished with a tie for third with 4 points total. Lamda Gama finshed in second with 5 points and the Thund3rCatz in first with 6 points. A very close race to start off the evening with our general knowledge.

It seems our teams were not all familiar with the famous mustaches of Round 2. Lamda Gama got the most correct in this round, getting 7 of the 8 answers correct. The three way tie broke down into a two way tie for fourth place with Team One & Only and Buy A Beer at 7 points.

Team Lambda Gama used their Double or Nothing in Round Three and earned their team an additional 12 points, keeping their first place title now with 24 points!

Round 4 was a mixed round for these teams. The Samtinis and Buy A Beer each guessed our mystery person and earned their teams 8 points each! Team One & Only got it after our fourth clue, earning their team an additional 4 points. While Lambda Gama and Thund3rCatz guessed incorrectly, effectively losing a point for their teams. By this point in the game Buy A Beer, they're good was in first place with 27 points. In second was Lambda Gama with 23 points, while the Smartinis followed closely behind in third with 22 points. In fourth were the Thund3rCats with 17 points. While Team One & Only remained in fifth with 15 points.

In Round 5 team Lambda Gama did not get any of their answers correct, after earning no points for this round they dropped out of the game finishing with 25 points total (those two extra points for returning my pen). 3 out of the 4 remaining teams correctly guessed the commonality of the answers!

The remaining teams who had not used their Double or Nothing plays up to this point all decided to play it during Round 6. This strategy did not work for the Smartinis or Team One & Only, however it did play out well for the Thund3rCatz!

In Round 7 almost all of the answers written by each team were correct, with the only incorrect answer that was written being Palestine. By the end of the game in fifth place was Lambda Gama. In fourth was Team One & Only, also with 25 points but placed in fourth for finishing out the game. Initially there was a tie for second place between Thund3rCatz and the Smatinis. After having a member from each team come up to answer our tie breaking question, which asked how many words were in George Orwell's Animal Farm, Thund3rCatz answered 15,00 while Smatrtinis guessed 22,000. The correct answer was 29,966 which meant that because the Smartinis had the closest guess they won the tie breaker! Placing Thund3rCatz in third, Smartinis in second, and Buy A Beer, they're good in first place with 56 points!

It was a close game for all, and congrats to all the teams for coming out to play! See you next week!

QUIZ RECAP

On May 1st College Bar rang in spring with seven teams to test their strength in trivia.

In Round 1 our teams were all so close to being tied! Country Folk were in the lead with 7 points (after having counted their team number into the score) while Tiana Is OK was just a point behind with 6 points meaning they had gotten every question correct in this round. The Quizards of Waverly Place finished this round in third place with 5 points. In fourth place there was a three-way tie between Megadebts: The Grad Band, Stepdads, and Tyson Tigers. In last place at the end of our first round was #TrustTheProcess.

Our teams were pretty evenly split in their knowledge of reality tv, many believe that our image of 90 Day Fiance was actually Married at First Sight. The maximum amount of points that had been earned in this round was 6 points to Country Folk and Quizards of Waverly Place. While the least amount of points earned was a flat 0.

Round 3 proved to be challenging to some teams who didn't pay attention to the rules that were explained at the beginning of the round but everyone still did very well in this round. Tiana Is OK was able to get every answer correct in this round bringing their total score up to 15 points, which put them in third place behind Quizards of Waverly Place with 16 points and Country Folk with 17 points. Stepdads were in fourth place with 13 points, #TTP was in fifth with 12 points, Tyson Tigers in sixth with 11 points, and Megadebts in seventh with 7 points.

Our Guess Who round was explosive with everyone turning in their answers before the final clue. Tiana Is OK and #TTP guessed Elon Musk correctly after just the first clue, bringing in 10 points for their teams! Tyson Tigers were next to turn in their answer and earned 8 points for their team. Country Folk and Quizards of Waverly Place each earned 6 points for their teams. Megadebts guessed correctly after the fourth clue, earning 4 points. The only team to guess incorrectly was Stepdads who guessed Bill Gates as our mystery individual and after their incorrect guess had decided to drop out of the game finishing off with a total of 12 points.

Round 5 was fairly difficult for these teams but only one was able to correctly guess all answers including the connection! This team was Country Folk and they also chose to play their Double or Nothing in this round earning their team 20 additional points! This brought them into a solid first place with 43 points. Tiana is okay was in second place with 33 points after only missing 2 questions in Round 5. In third place was the Quizards of Waverly Place with 29 points, this team has also been absolved by a new group of players as the initial team decided to drop out. In fourth place was the Tyson Tigers who got a little more than half of the answers corect for this round which made their total score 25 points. #TTP maintained their score of 22 points after applying their Double of Nothing in this round, they unfortunately had only missed 1 of their written answers which means they were unable to earn any points this round, they would also be dropping out after this round finishing their game with 22 points. In sixth place was Megadebts with 18 points.

In Round 6, 3 of our remaining 5 teams got each of the answers correct. Tiana Is OK wisely played their Double or Nothing for this round and earned 20 points for their team, which brought them to a tie for first place against Country Folk, who also got all answers correct for this round. The two teams were tied for 53 points. The Quizards of Waverly Place were the other team to get all answers correct this round which brought their score to 39 points. The Tyson Tigers were in fourth with 33 points after only missing 2 questions this round. Megadebts came in fifth with 25 points. While #TTP remaining in sixth with their 22 points and Stepdads in seventh with 12 points.

In Round 7 Tiana Is OK and Country Folk continued their tie for first place after both teams got all answers correct in this round meaning both teams now had 65 points total. Quizards of Waverly Place used their Double or Nothing in this round and had it not been for their Cheeseburger Pringles answer they would have earned all those points, however they earned 0.

After Round 7 in first place was Tiana Is OK and Country Folk with 65 points. In second was Tyson Tigers with 42 points. Third went to the Quizards of Waverly Place with 39 points. Fourth with 32 points was Megadebts: The Grad Band. Fifth was #TrustTheProcess with their 22 points and in sixth place was Stepdads with 12 points.

Due to the tie for first, 1 representative from each team came to the front to answer our tie breaking question which asked, "How many rooms and suites are in the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas?" Tiana Is OK guess roughly 300 while Country Folk guessed closer to 400. While both were very far off from the correct answer, which was 4,049, the first place prize went to Country Folk for being just that small bit closer.
