QUIZ RECAP

We had a great array of questions for this pre-Halloween trivia night and it became a fairly close game as we pressed on! Joining us this week were Thiqq Snakes, Moose on the Loose, J Jugs, and Blank.

Our first few rounds had the team's scores all over the board! But Moose on the Loose held in first place just a few points above Thiqq Snakes and Blank.

Unfortunately though by round 3 Blank had decided to drop out of the game, so we continued the games with just 3 teams!

Round 4 this week through our team's for a loop asking them to identify a man from the very early 1900s! Thiqq Snakes and J Jugs believed our mystery man to be Charlie Chaplin after a clue hinting that he was proficient at pantomiming due to being raised by deaf parents. As we continued through the hints looking for anyone to name the Man of 1,000 Faces he was unfortunately never properly identified as the Lon Chaney! Surely his face is recognizable in his self-applied costume makeups for roles as Quasimodo and the Phantom (of The Phantom of the Opera) but few know him by the name of Lon Chaney!

We continued on to round 5 where teams were asked to find the commonality of all the questions, this week Moose on the Loose as well as Thiqq Snakes were able to see that all of the answers were green items!

Thiqq Snakes had been slowly working their way up to Moose on the Loose on the scoreboards and in an effort to surpass them they used their Double or Nothing in Round 6! Round 6 asked the teams to match the "spooky" song titles to their original artists. Thiqq Snakes got every single answer right and earned themselves 20 total points in this round bringing their score up to 31 points! By this point in the game J Jugs had 21 points total and Moose on the Loose remained in first place, though just a few points up at 33! Only one round left to see who our champion would be!

The final round this week asked our teams to name the 10 events in a decathlon! Thiqq Snakes was so close to earning all 10 points in this round as well but missed just a single question! In the end that would cost them the potential to go head to head with Moose on the Loose for a chance to break the tie! A close match indeed!!

Moose on the Loose finished the game in first place with 41 points total, while Thiqq Snakes trailed immediately behind with 40 points, J Jugs in third with 24 points, and Blank, our long lost team, in fourth with 5 points.

QUIZ RECAP

We had a great night on Tuesday at Snakes and Lattes! We had three teams competing for the top prize, all while celebrating a 21st birthday! Newcomers "Trent's Birthday" and "Kamilah!" joined veteran gamers "Moose on the Loose". The game got nail biting in our third round where multiple teams tried their hands at Double or Nothing, with only Moose on the Loose getting all the answers correct in the round of "PP" in the Hizzy. Our Rom Com Duos Round saw Trent's Birthday surge back into the game, earning 20 points with Double or Nothing and making this contest a closer match. Kamilah! kept trending upward but no one was able to catch the Moose on the Loose in our final round of Nords and Elementals! Congrats to all of our winners!

QUIZ RECAP

What a night for trivia this week at Snakes & Lattes! This week we had four teams playing: Moose on the Loose, We're Smart... Right?, 21 Girls, and First Time.

Like always, our first round was full of general knowledge questions! The teams right off the bat are starting strong with scores of 5 and 4's. Moose on the Loose, due to their registered team, finished off this round with a total of 8 points!

Round 2 proved to be a bit trickier. In this round our teams were asked to identify the act Young Award winners shown in each of the 8 images. Unfortunately at this point in the game 21 Girls and First Time both dropped out of the races, leaving Moose on the Loose and We're Smart... Right? to go head to head.

Round 3 was all about 4 with this number appearing in either the questions or the answers. The question that both our teams got incorrect, but both had also put the same answer for amusingly, asked which Mowtown quartet is known for the song "Baby I Need Your Loving". Both our remaining teams guessed that it was The Temptations, however the correct answer was The Four Tops!

Round 4 this week got a bit muddled as, without realizing it until it had been brought to my attention I had set my teams up for failure! During our first clue I mistakenly said the wrong birth year of our mystery person, flipping the '86 into a '68! Due to my goof our teams remained unscathed by point loss for this round as the mysterious Robert Pattinson alluded us all.

By this point in the game Moose on the Loose was in first with 16 points as We're Smart... Right? followed behind with a total of 7 points.

Round 5's Find The Connection was tight up my alley this week as each of the answers had something to do with trees! Both our teams did pretty well in this round, though Moose on the Loose was the only one to identify the commonality!

Our teams had their alt-rock knowledge tested in Round 6 where they were asked to match each of the album titles shown to one of the bands shown in the answer keys. There were two pairs that both of our teams got right, which were "Nevermind" to Nirvana and "Blood Sugar Sex Magik" to the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Our final round this week got real geeky! The first question asked our teams to name the four fundamental forces of nature, as well as 6 of the 7 main crew members of Star Trek's USS Enterprise (from the original series). As a Trekkie I personally was quite a fan of this question!

In the end Moose on the Loose came in a strong first place with 41 points and We're Smart... Right? made it to second place with 16 points!

Come check in next week for our trivia updates! Until then, live long and prosper.
