QUIZ RECAP

There were some tough questions going around at Trivia this Tuesday at Bar Charlie.

We started the night off with some General Knowledge, where 2 teams got extra points for being registered on KingTrivia.com, but that wasn't enough to outweigh the Double-or-Nothing of the Val-erinas, who started off with a bang!

The Picture Round had us de-computing the symbols, which kept the scores pretty steady across the board.

Then in Round 3, T n' T was a good enough clue to get Riff Raff and Sleeping Booty the Double-or-Nothing, and even though Val-erinas got all the answers right, they didn't double down on this round, causing them to abandon their lead.

The Guess Who round had one team turn in a hasty incorrect answer after the 8 point clue, costing them 1 point, while the rest of the teams waited for the 4 point clue before turning in their answers to guess the who correctly as The Phantom of the Opera!

Going into Round 5, we still had Riff Raff and Sleeping Booty tied for first, and while a few teams did find the right connection, none got all 10 questions right on this round.

Once we got through Round 6, the handout pairing the Sitcom Boss to their TV show, Riff Raff was able to secure their lead, while A Dog Named Goat and APR Crew were still inching along.

The Final Round asked for 10 Box Office Heavyweights, which was a tough ask for all the teams, the highest score during this round was only 5 points, and APR Crew took a dive, scoring nothing off their Double-or-Nothing marker.

It was a close game over the course of the night, ending with Riff Raff in 1st place, followed by Sleeping Booty in 2nd, and Val-erinas in 3rd.

Thank you to everyone who came out to play! See you all again next week!

Tuesday Night Trivia this week held some tough questions and even a challenge answer!

Sleeping Booty came out of the gate at top speed, thanks to having their team registered at KingTrivia.com and a strong Round 1 answer set, their General Knowledge skills were top notch!

In Round 2, we were joined by an additional team, thanks for joining the game, Events & Such, these ladies were full of great energy and laughter to keep our spirits up throughout the evening.

Round 3 brought out our artsy-crime side, with Crime Show Haikus. I felt like a slam poetry artist on stage, with the audience just trying to figure out what in the world I was talking about 🙂

Round 4 was our Guess Where round; rather than a person this week, we were looking for a national landmark, which caused some discussion about what constitutes a natural wonder. As it turns out, the distinguishing portion in the first clue for 10 points was the mention of the expedition that named Old Faithful in 1870 - that was not the same group that named Yellowstone National Park.

The connection in Round 5 was a bunch of palindromes... wouldn't it be cool if the word palindrome was a palindrome itself too?

Musicals seemed to be a tough subject for most, in Round 6. The highest any team scored on this round was 8 out of 10.

And in the final round, Events & Such took a dive with their Double or Nothing shot in the dark - all in good fun! That's what we're here for!

It was a tight match, but in the end, we had Quizzards of Oz on top in 1st place, followed by Sleeping Booty in 2nd place, and then We Don't Know Val or Musicals in 3rd. Thanks for coming out and sticking with us Mally Catt, you guys were troopers! And Events & Such were a breath of fresh air for this Quizmaster 🙂

See you all again next week!

QUIZ RECAP

It was another eventful Tuesday night at Bar Charlie! We had 7 teams all playing for the chance to win bragging rights (and a gift card to come back).

Round 1 found Sleeping Booty starting off strong with all their General Knowledge, while Cottonheaded Ninnymugginses decided to sit this round out, until they saw how much fun everyone else was having playing trivia, and came in to start on Round 2, the Picture Round. Those music logos had a couple of teams seeing double-or-nothing, and brought The Misfits and At Least His Dog is Cute out as the front runners.

Round 3, the Theme Round - A Star is Born had a few more teams test their luck with Double or Nothing, evening the tally with scores in the 20's. The Guess Who round (4), was confusing for some, who turned in their answers too soon, and guessed wrong, while another team decided they were better off not turning in anything than maybe getting the wrong answer and minus 1 point.

Round 5, Find the Connection, was a tough one this week, just a Stone's throw away for some, but no one got all 10 right this time around. On to the Matching handout for Round 6, no Olympia is not a country, but we did have four teams get all the athletes paired correctly with their country from the Olympics - although only two of them were certain enough to mark the Double-or-Nothing box for double the points!

Finally Round 7 had most of the teams stumped on listing out ALL 9 of the "Real Housewives" regions listed .Who knew there were 9 different cities/areas of "Real Housewives"? Apparently nobody, because the most any team got right were 8 of them.

It was super close up through the whole game, and we had some amazing team work from everyone who played. In the end it was The Misfits who pulled into first place, followed by Quizards of Oz in second, and Sleeping Booty in third. Great job to everyone who played, and thank you for those who didn't come to play, but stayed and played anyway! Let's keep this momentum going - bring your friends 🙂

Thanks to my "assistant" Kari this week, you did great! And of course, thanks to our lovely bartender, Amy, and Christian for hosting us at Bar Charlie!
