You’ve probably heard movie characters talk about their middle names.
Well for your team name this week, we want you to tell us your “middle name”.
Sarcasm is my middle name
Argumentative is my middle name
Trivia is my middle name
Any team name that tells us your “middle name” will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.
WINNERS
If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.
JACKPOTS
This team came in last, but still knew enough about German cities to win the jackpot.
It was a big week for jackpots with three going off.
TEAM NAMES
You gave us plenty of misheard lyrics
Dyslexics on fire
Go go Jason Waterfalls
Bald headed woman, bald headed woman with fleas
Revved up like a douche
We built this city on sausage rolls
The girl with colitis goes by
Now I’m feeling so fly like a cheese steak
I believe that the hot dogs go on
Dressed for some sex
Let’s get quizzical
Seven Asian armies
Like a virgin, f*cked for the very first time
If you wanna be my mother, you gotta get with my dad
Stuck in the middle with glue
Cheap wine and a female goat
Concrete jungle wet dream tomato
Alex the seal
Sweet home and banana
F*ck the Casbah
Hold me closer Tony Danza
Shave tonight
Feel the beat from the tangerine
Who’s gonna shave me
Pappadum preach
I can see clearly now, Lorraine has gone
TriviArt
Bouncy Apple Lightbulb
Beautiful Beer
Sexy Bearded Monkey
Unnecessary Sumo
Squeaky Pineapple
Fisting Pirate
Soggy Flamingo
Equine Tree
INTERESTING MOMENTS
When we asked a bonus question about the largest country without rivers, someone guessed Australia. Sure we’re facing droughts, but really? Australia has no rivers?
We were giving the lyrics to a song for a bonus question, and we got as far as saying “hot, like, me, don’t, cha”, before the first team was willing to hazard a guess. And they didn’t even guess the song whose title we had just said seconds earlier.
And one of our regulars proved she could write backwards as quickly & clearly as forwards.
See you next week.
Were the following movie characters actual people or fictional characters?
Captain Richard Phillips (Captain Phillips)
Daniel Plainview (There Will Be Blood)
David Helfgott (Shine)
Jack Dawson (Titanic)
Solomon Northup (12 Years a Slave)

We’ve all done it.
You’ve been singing along to a song for years before realising that you’ve been singing the wrong lyrics.
This week we want you to channel that ignorance into your team name.
Take me down to the prairie dog city
There’s a baboon on the right
She was a fax machine, she kept her modem clean
There ain’t no hole in that girl
We don’t need no sex vacation
Anything that is a misheard lyric you’ve sung will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
Two teams tied for first place, and chose to split the prizes.
When faced with a bonus question and the hint that the person we were looking for was black, one team answered Martin Freeman.
PIC
Because apparently this guy is black.
One of our dilemma questions asked if people would rather lose a had or half of their teeth. We didn’t notice until after we had asked the question that one of our players only had one arm.
Instead of just answering a question on the Battle of Culloden, one team gave us a short essay on the details of the battle. They had really brushed up on the last place subject and wanted to show off their knowledge
When we asked about common words beginning with BRO, an unusually large number of teams went with “brothel”. A rather telling answer perhaps.
We asked a question about Detroit when a player from Detroit was attending just her second show. It seems her whole life had been leading to that moment, and she will be coasting on that answer for a long time.
And when one of our hosts found his microphone wouldn’t work, he managed the entire show on just his unamplified voice.
See you next week.
