On this game night before Christmas, seven teams celebrated the gift of trivia (and food and drink at Edna Vees). However, so many of our teams were all over the place with the points. No matter-- everyone was having fun, and that's what matters, right?
Some highlights...
o Ship of Fools got the only successful Double in Round 3
o Two teams got -1 on the Guess What round
o What Was The Question best remembers what it's like as a kid at Christmas
With the Double, and a perfect Round Four, Ship of Fools positioned themselves nicely, and walked away with the win.
Happy holidays, everyone! Edna Vees will be hosting King Trivia December 26, but closed on January 2nd.
See you next week!

We had quite an interesting mix of teams tonight. A team of one. A Champion level team. A team leaving early, and a team joining late. And everyone having fun!
The points? All over the place. The questions? A bit of a challenge! The movie Elf? Great film. Let's take a moment to thank Susie Farris for great casting. I know Wet Hair are fans of hers!
Only one Double was used tonight, and four teams got taken down a point by a difficult Guess Who. But More Beer Plz. stayed the course and took the win! Congrats!
Now, if you'll excuse me... I'm hosting an afterparty with a certain Pocket Rocket. See you next week!

Tonight we had a lot of new teams to King Trivia, joining some of our seasoned teams for some great fun, prizes, and... bubble gum. (Say whaaaa??)
Tonight's questions, and consequently the points and round performance, was all over the map tonight. But... all the contestants of the Hydration Round got a fabulous prize: a piece of pre-chewed bubble gum. I spared no expense!
So the game chugged along... until Round Five, and that's when Ship of Fools was done "fooling around" (man, do I crack myself up!) Twice in a row, back to pack, they successfully used Doubles on 10 point rounds, and got 20 points each round! They launched themselves to the lead, and never gave it up. Big congrats to them for showing what happens when the big dog wakes!
Thanks for Andrew for assisting, and handling a couple rounds to show everyone how YOU do it! He noticed that our top three teams were separated by 14 points each. Who says math can't be fun?
Congrats to all teams, and see you again next week!
