Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 14 October 2018

This week we want you to think of well known sayings, and then ruin them by changing one letter.

You can’t get blood out of a scone.

You are what you pat.

A stitch in time saves none.

You can’t have your cape and eat it too.

The straw that broke the camel’s sack.

Peeing is believing.

Make gay while the sun shines.

Anything that changes a popular saying by just one letter will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

In a lightning round on the letter M, someone said that Detroit was the largest city in Connecticut, and after being eliminated changed their answer to Kentucky, then changed their answer again to Massachusetts, none of which were correct.

And another player prompted us to make a lightning round question more specific when she said that having 12 shots of vodka would make her feel “relaxed” instead of “intoxicated”.

We asked about the character who say the most words in Forrest Gump, and one team forgot to say Forrest Gump.

A player from Birmingham in England managed to misspell Birmingham, thus contributing to certain stereotypes about people from Birmingham.

See you next week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 7 October 2018

You’ve probably heard the story about the Sydney Opera House being used to advertise horse racing.

Some people aren’t happy about one of Australia’s most iconic buildings being used as a billboard.

Now we want you to use your team name to tell us what you think would be an inappropriate thing to advertise on the Opera House.

Rename it the Hungry Jacks Opera House

Star Casino

Pornhub

Anything that would be inappropriate to advertise on the Opera House will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

This Week in iQ Trivia – 6 October 2018

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

It was a short week this week, but if you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.

JACKPOTS

This team didn’t win the quiz, but they did win the jackpot.

And this team seems to win a jackpot every time they come to trivia. They’ve never won a quiz, but they’ve frequently won jackpots.

TEAM NAMES

You came up with plenty of one line jokes.

Donald Trump is an excellent world leader.

Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be.

Kleptomaniacs take things literally.

My wedding was so beautiful, even the cake was in tiers.

I asked my North Korean friend how things were, and he said he couldn’t complain.

Whiteboards are remarkable.

Life is like toilet paper… you’re either on a roll or taking shit from some asshole.

A man walked into a bar… ouch.

There are 10 kinds of people who understand binary… those who do and those who don’t.

I realised I was dyslexic when I attended a toga party dressed as a goat.

My pet donkey is a real ass.

The bad thing about being modest is you can’t boast about it.

Sultry Sparrow

Shiny South African

French Black Sabbath

Slimy Disney World

Bouncy Turtle

INTERESTING MOMENTS

One team asked a passerby if they knew anything about A-league clubs, and that passerby has now been drafted on to that team.

Someone misheard us & thought we asked if Keith Richards was aged 118 in this photograph taken in 1962.

Because Keith Richards is obviously a vampire.

A doctor insisted that rhabdomyositis was sufficiently similar to rhabdomyolysis, and to be frank, we were not especially keen to argue with them.

We overheard someone reject a correct option on a gambler’s question, claiming that “if that was true I would have heard about it in pub trivia somewhere.” Well friend, you DID hear about it at pub trivia, and you heard about it at Australia’s most INTERESTING pub trivia.

When one team trolled us by choosing Glass Manufacturing in the 1920s as their special subject, we trolled them back by asking a question about someone from the 1920s whose surname was Glass.

See you next week.
