King Trivia on Zoom
0
Welcome to HoneyBadgers and welcome back to So Many Guesses!
Nicole and Karla were on the same time tonight -- Australia time so we saw the sun shining through their screens 🙂
And happy fun news that next week, we will have an Australia-themed round in honor of Karla!
Like I said, she's been so patient with all of us since our inception of KT on Zoom in Sept 2020, answering all of the American trivia that it's only fair we all try our knowledge at the questions from down under!
Find the Connection took us to Vegas this week -- and the Pand-Emmys, then state quarters from around the U.S. of A.
It was a close, close game, with the teams that took the lead really mostly taking the lead with a one-point difference in each round and then So Many Guesses edged ahead with the W!
Keep shining and keep smiling, friends!

We had a fabulous time today roaring ahead with seven teams on the go go go!
The wedding songs had us all crooning in tune -- and dancing with our pets and loved ones, and I thank everyone for STANDing BY ME or sitting by me on Zoom every Tuesday!
It's been so great to hear adventures from each team 🙂
Karla thought the song Love on Top was actually Girl on Top! And we were all on top of our knowledge all night long.
Find the Connection gave us lots of coffee, for this tea drinker -- and the Picture Round was too fly for words.
We went into Tiebreaker Territory whoot whoot between Zima: Warrior Princess and Taking Care of Quizness!
When asked to recall how many episode of Gunsmoke were made between 1955-1975, well Karla guessed 184, Sean went the other way of the spectrum to 800, we saw The Quad Squad reason out 480 with 24 episodes over 20 years, and then Taking Care of Quizness said 284 and Zima: Warrior Princess noted 625.
The answer was 635!
Antonio had all the Simpsons intel at the ready to pair up against Gunsmoke!
And we'll be sure to send Nicole off with safe travels to Australia -- and to the tune of all of those country songs dripping with love!

We traveled all around the world by the end of tonight's game and tipped our hats off to Shakespeare, too!
Round Three was pure magic -- and we had a marvelous time.
Sean and Karla were great company during the breakout rooms, and Taking Care of Quizness and Opening Day kept going head-to-head for the lead, with Taking Care of Quizness ending the night with the W!
