- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 7:00pm
Big night at the Tam -- not a spare chair to be found, but plenty of fun was! The Find the Connection Round was about 50/50 as far as teams figuring out that the Beatles were the connection. And though they didn't have breakfast with the Beatles, the General Washingtons found their just desserts via the Drinking Round, which they were able to take after a tie they did break. With the Flux Capacitors and Aggressive Foreplay rounding out the top three, the Washingtons also sallied forth to a win in the overall game.
Meanwhile, though the above pictures of the winning teams are clearly lifelike renderings, your humble Quizmaster would like to inform you that they are not actually photographs. Nay, these images are in truth portraits executed after the fact using colored wax on paper (2019).

Always a pleasure to host a game at the usual locale where I play. Quite a slow night tonight with only four teams but a fierce competition was afoot nonetheless.
We lost a fifth team after round 4. The Nat 20's had the lead for most of the night, but after winning the drinking round, they fell behind both Aggressive Foreplay and the winners the General Washingtons. Congrats on the comeback win with a big double down in round six, General Washingtons!

Now that our watch has ended, trivia teams were tasked with naming as many houses of Westeros as they could for the Drinking Round. Flux Capacitors served their King (Trivia) well by correctly naming 26 of those families, ensuring that they won that game. They also found themselves in second place at the end of a high scoring game, with Argentum just behind in third, and Aggressive Foreplay looking down from first.
