QUIZ RECAP

Your humble quizmaster is no slave to conventionality! So today, we honor NOT the top three teams listed in this week's scorecard. Oh no! They won, after all, and are even now basking in the warm glow of victory and Golden Road Gift Certificates.

No...today, instead, we pay homage to those intrepid quizzers who found themselves just a bit outside of the warm glow of victory: the score sheet "close, but no cigar" folks who landed in the 4-7 slots.

I speak, of course, of the aptly named The Miscreants, whose excellent 56-point performance would have been good enough to win on many nights. Frequent flyers The Bad Explainers matched that point total, and clearly had a great time doing it. 

Long Live Johnny Trinh and Harriett & The Spies were next in with strong performances, and were delightful to have in the house. YOU should be in the house when we convene again next week. See ya then!

No...today, instead, we pay homage to those intrepid quizzers who found themselves just a bit outside of the warm glow of victory: the score sheet  bottom-dwellers to try so hard. I speak, of course, of Team McGenius, whose 21-point finish suggests that they might consider changing their team name.  Or Our Couch Pulls Out, But We Don't, who pulled up with short 22, but clearly had a great time doing it!

Alas, O'Trivia Newton John seemed hopelessly devoted to wrong answers, and ended up with 23. And I'll say this about The Spanish Beauties: they were, indeed beauties, and were all smiles throughout their 24-point finish. As for Butt Stuff, well, your 25 points (and your team name) will go un-commented upon. (I'm at a loss for words on both subjects.)

I LOVE you guys! Truly. These teams bring a sense of spirit, competition and joie de vivre to every King Trivia event, and you deserve more recognition than you usually receive. We're happy to call you friends! See ya next week.

QUIZ RECAP

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia - Fear of long words.

Here at King Trivia, we're proud to provide a challenging, stimulating test of knowledge and memory to our many skilled quizinators, who gather each week in the spirit of fun and camaraderie to test their acumen and abilities against other like-minded fans of (sometimes) arcane knowledge.

Two Girls, One Buttercup certainly rose to the challenge this week at Golden Road Brewery in beautiful Atwater Village. They finished in our top spot , followed by Gin Cold Blood in 2nd, and a tie between the formidable folks of Yer A Quizard, Harry and  SHEcago, with the homophonic SHEcagoans taking 3rd via the tiebreaker.

Note that I said homophonic, not homophobic, which would be an entirely different thing, right? But I don't have to explain that to you. You knew that! You're a King Trivia-loving seeker of knowledge an truth! You're not afraid of homophones or long words!

That's why we're proud to know you! King Trivia quizinators are the best!! See ya next week.
