QUIZ RECAP

It was a great night at The Slip and I was happy to have a warm welcome back after my week out sick!

Up until the last round it was a brutal fight for first (and second and third)! Scores stayed close so even a single successful double could (and did) change all of the standings drastically!

While nearly every team successfully doubled the iconic movie items in Round 2, most of the other rounds saw no attempted doubles. It wasn't until the final round that teams felt bold enough to mark the box!

Interestingly enough, teams who unsuccessfully doubled might have maintained ranked spots if they hadn't marked their boxes! Rio Deal was able to come through with a clutch double in Round 7 that pulled them into a 5-point lead over We Like to Come From Behind, who had all of the Round 7 answers correct, but chose not to double! What a turn of events! In third place, Alabama Hurricanes had a strong showing of 56 points - just a few ahead of fourth. It was a tight race to the end and I am looking forward to another great night next Tuesday as these fabulous regulars return to duke it out for another game of King Trivia.

Thanks all!

QUIZ RECAP

Slip is one of the most hardcore trivia venues I have ever subbed at, and I loved every second of it! These teams are committed to the art of trivia, in a way few others are. They not only succeed at Trivia, they find Zen in it. Each time I announced a question a hush would fall over the crowd. I looked around the crowd and saw teams communicating with telepathic glances that I couldn't understand, but I knew would lead to greatness.

For most of the game the trivia masters were Team Markel, but right at the end they were outwitted by a round 6 double or nothing from The Rio Deal. In the end, The Rio Deal took first place, team Markel took second, and Mr. Poopybutthole took third. Mr. Poopybutthole was one of those teams that fluctuated a lot throughout the game, but just when I thought they had officially been flushed down, they came right back up and took third.

The other highlight from the Slip was a team that changed name every round to tell a full story. Here were all of their team names:

My Teammates Aren't Here Yet

My Teammates Arrived!

My Teammates Give Me Wrong Answers

My Teammates Ate All My Fries!

My Teammates Suck At Trivia

Me and My Teammates Are Cool Now!

Me and My Teammates Gave Up On Trivia

Teams of Slip, keep up your focus and sense of humor as you continue to perfect the art of trivia!

QUIZ RECAP

Only one team managed to successfully double a single round last night - Bye Bye Brian in Round 5. Otherwise it was a tough competition with neck-and-neck scores to make it into the top 3!

While there wasn't a single "most difficult" round, each round seemed to hold one or two questions that stumped the bar!

Bye Bye Brian took home the first place prize, but led only by 4 points. In second place we had Lennox Ave. Ladybugs, and a mere one point behind them, our third place team: Rio Deal.

See you all next Tuesday!
