The Flag Hags took home the gold this week! I had four teams, half of them with team numbers, and a few first timers! I received some very creative answers ("Things I don't know" was NOT the connection) and got to regale folks with tales about being a quizzmaster.

The evening started like any other with players and teams excited to have a fantastic trivia evening but double down drama threw the game for a loop!
The first round started with Flag Hags and Lime Skittles both winning on their double downs as part of their show down. Team Hot Pockets got a perfect score but didn't double down and was now in catch-up mode.
Not wanting to miss their chance to gain some ground, Hot Pockets scored on their double down in the second round but the fearless Lime Skittles doubled down again to maintain the lead.
In the fifth round, things really heated up with Lime Skittles taking a big lead on their 3rd double down of the night! Flag Hags attempted to catch-up with a double down of their own but missed one question and ended up with 0 points instead of 20.
From there, no one could catch the Lime Skittles and Hot Pockets were able to hold onto 2nd place with Flag Hags coming in 3rd. It's safe to say that the rivalry between these teams is heating up and don't be surprised if Flag Hags come back next week with a furious focus ready to take 1st place.

What a fun night at The Lumber Yard! I, in all my years of Quizmastering, have never had 3 teams within one point of each other after the final round! Ratchet AF narrowly missed out on our tie-breaker question, meaning Flag Hags and Lime Skittles put it all on the line for one last question. Lime Skittle was able to guess within ONE. MINUTE. of Green Book's total run time. They earned their first prize gift card to return to The Lumber Yard for more trivia next week! Also, quick shout out to Beirdos, for successfully guessing Jennifer Aniston for every question that they did not know the answer for.
Thank you so much for the warm welcome, you really made an LA boy feel welcome!
