QUIZ RECAP

We learned lots of things from a challenging but happy Friday night at the excellent Twisted Sage.

From round 1 we learned that Dolphins can't smell, from Round 2 that there is a certain demographic that really knows its Nickelodeon, from Round 3 South Korea cloned the first canine, from Round 4 no one knows anything about Linda Hamilton apart from Terminator, from Round 5 not all Robin William's movies were comedies, from Round 6 the soda Zingo comes from Sweden and finally from Round 7, Stanley Kubrick directed 13 movies!

The 5 teams (we started with 7 but Round 2 self-eliminated 2 teams) duked out a tough quiz, with Cybertruck emerging victorious. 2 new teams to the King Trivia family "The Hecks" and "The Clean House Club" went into the final round tied, but The Clean House pipped the Hecks at the Post.

Clean House Club also cleaned house in the Beer Round, in 2 minutes coming up with more words of 7 letters and over from "Thanksgiving"

As HAL (Heuristically Programmed ALgorithmic Computer) advises, when things get tough, "Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over."

Have a stress free Thanksgiving, everyone!

QUIZ RECAP

A nice close, fun game to start the weekend off at this great venue!

Potts, a new addition to the King Trivia family played gallantly, but Not Dead Pest had the upper hand throughout. Stay of execution made some uncharacteristic errors (missing a double down and the Guess What was tricky!)

The Dirty Penguins kept their flappers up throughout and the Beer Round (waste basketball!) was won by the lovely Infinity Stones - cheers!

Oui les canons sont tuent, mais la bataille continue.

QUIZ RECAP

Hot night tonight at the Twisted Sage! Several KT veterans and some lovely newbies jousted (round 3 reference) for the 3 top spots at this great venue!

3 Hours to Redlands (thanks for making the trip) doubled down successfully in Round 1, and, despite valiant efforts (round 3 again) could not be unseated.

The Police almost got called in for Round 5 adjudication, but the Quizmistress is always right rule came in handy. Behave! (Round 6 Austin Powers)

The Scattergories/Pointless beer round seemed to go down well, and will be repeated (but Mario major characters will NOT be a category!)

As the fabulous Joe E Brown says at the end of Some Like it Hot ......."Nobody's Perfect" but (IMHO) scores of 40 and over are, thank you Larry David, "Pretty Good"

Thanks to everyone for playing - come back soon!
