QUIZ RECAP

What a killer night. Mostly regulars turned out which meant competition was as stiff as a starched collar on a winter night.

Round 1 threw enough teams into the realm of doubt to prevent any early double-downs, but in round 2,  4 teams successfully grabbed 12 points.

Everyone's favourite drug-using pitcher was enough to throw There's Always Next Week under the bus and ruin their hopes for a double-down, falling behind 3 teams who capitalized on their confidence and locked in another 12 points. Round 4 was more or less split between teams who waited for the second and fourth clues, but it was the drinking round that had everyone applauding as the representative from Pineapple Analytica guessing the exactly correct year that smokeless gunpowder was invented.

Round 5 spread the field again with some goose eggs due to double-downs. Round 6 saw five teams score 20 points with double downs that no one risked for the 2-part Round 7

A tie-breaker for the Game‽ amazing! With getting the closest guess without going over, Tequila Mockingbirds won the day (even if they still shorted it by 2,800 psi).

It was a night of upsets, and not just being upset with double downs. We had teams cheering and jeering each other the whole night through, and congratulating or commiserating over the effects of double-downs.

There's Always Next week was the first out of the gate with a successful double down and maintained a steady stride all game ending in Second Place

Tequila Mockingbirds steadily improved their scores each round, securing several Double-Downs that proved essential for the win.

The real excitement came, however, with a tie-breaker for 3rd place between The Biscuiteers and The Kids' Table, pitting their representatives in 3 head-to-head tie breaking questions in which the $10 3rd-Place giftcard went to regulars The Kids Table.

What a fun night we had in the Pineapple Hill. 12 teams met for trivial fury, and the points tallied away with many teams attempting (but not all successfully achieving) double-downs in multiple rounds. About half of the teams doubled-down in round one, and half of those again would go on to place and win prizes- but we're getting ahead of ourselves.

Round 2 found our heroes a little gun-shy, but Double-downs ruled the game again in round 3, with only 3 teams abstaining.

Round 4 was the turning point for our game, with teams bleeding points in an effort to secure enough clues to take at least something away (those minus points are scary!).

The Drinking round was a fantabulous array of guesses (In Centimeters) of how tall Bruno Mars is. Most of the teams were unsure of at least one thing, either how tall Bruno Mars is, or how tall a centimeter is, with many guesses in the 500s (that's 5 meters tall or more). But there's always a winner, and winners get a round of drinks!

Hungry for a win, the Kid's Table and Tequila Mockingbirds successfully doubled down on a downright ugly round 5, but thankfully everyone at least got the connection (Hooray Saturday Morning Cartoons, sigh, it's sad those aren't really a thing anymore).

Things got real in rounds 6 and 7, most teams playing conservative and unsure of their answers, maybe still reeling from round 4, it was a fairly high scoring game over all, however, with the top 4 teams scoring over 60 points! There's only room for 3 on the podium to collect Gift Cards, however, and if you want to check on that, The Kids Table, Ovaltine Jenkins, and Tequila Mockingbirds can confirm, in descending order.
