9/29 Theme and Magic item

Hi ho everyone, I hope you are enjoying the cooling rain as we embark into another beautiful autumn in CNY!  I just got soaked on my way home tonight but it felt pretty good.

Enough about me and the weather though, let's get down to business...
This weeks theme is BIG CATS.  Calico's and tabby's are right out, I'm talking BIG cats.

Remember you can earn bonus points by BEATING BRIAN in a CHALLENGE OF YOUR CHOOSING!  Check the earlier post about challenges for guidelines, but feel free to get creative with it.
You can also get points by bringing in the MAGIC ITEM- this week it's a COMBINATION LOCK.  Not a digital combination lock, a physical one.  I have to put that out there.

Sign ups and challenges will BEGIN AT 7:30!  So get to Meghan's in time to earn those points and I'll see you in less than 24 hours!

9/22 Theme and magic Item (and more!)

Good Day! I trust if you got this far that you are ready and excited for another evening of trivial entertainment!

The theme this week is ...CARTOONS! all kinds of cartoons are fair game...

The Magic Item is A WHEAT PENNY. You know what I am talking about, and yes, I only accept the tangible genuine article.  Bring on in to show me and get 2 points

*NEW BONUS POINTS!*  In a little segment I am calling "Beat Brian" I am accepting head to head challenges from players from 7:30-8:00.  If you can beat Brian you get 2 points for your team.  See the previous post for all the details on what makes a valid challenge.  Dream up some challenges and I'll take you on Thursday!

Get to Meghan's early for good seats and to challenge me!  Sign ups start at 7:30 now!

*NEW* Challenge the host!

Hey trivia players, beginning next week I am going to offer an additional 2 bonus points before we get started with trivia if you can beat me in a challenge of YOUR choosing!  Easy enough, right? I'll be getting to Meghan's at 7:30 to take on your challenges. The challenge can be almost anything but I do need to set some guidelines to keep it moving along and keep it (relatively) fair. 
  • It must be a head to head, one-on-one competition where there can only be one winner.
  • The winner must be undisputed.  (We can't be setting up panels of judges if your challenge is rhythmic gymnastics)
  • It should not take more than a minute or so to complete.  
  • While it does not have to be physical in nature, it can not be a challenge where you could easily rig it to guarantee victory (ie: trivia questions that come from you).
  • It must require some sort of acumen, ability or chance from both of us.  Comparing height, or things of that nature are not challenges.
  • It should not be inherently dangerous or illegal
In addition to these guidelines I will NOT drink more than one alcoholic beverage per challenge round per evening (I still have to function for trivia).  If your challenge demands that I drink alcohol, be aware that I may not accept the challenge that evening.

Your team gets one challenge to me per night.  If you win, you get 2 bonus points.  Once you win a challenge you may not continue to have that person use the same (or very similar) challenge in following weeks.  While an undisputed winner is desirable, if a tie situation occurs, the win will go to me since you have the clear upper hand in choosing the challenge.
BE CREATIVE!  HAVE FUN WITH THIS! I am really looking forward to what you come up with!

9/15 Theme and Magic Item

Good day to you sir or miss!  It's a great day for trivia, and I'm glad you feel the same way (or else why would you be here?)
This weeks theme is EXTREME SPORTS.  That's right, not the middle of the road sports, or the average sports, but the ones that are on the edge.

And the Magic Item, which will earn your team 2 bonus points if you can show me one is an ONONDAGA COUNTY LIBRARY CARD.   Bring in that little plastic pass ticket to knowledge and be ahead of the non-readers!  If you don't have one, what are you waiting for?  It's free!

Come by 8:00pm to sign up, get seated and order up those drinks.  Remember that buckets of Bud and Bud light are on special during trivia- only $12, and 25 cent wings all night too!  See you at Meghans!

9/8 Theme and Magic Item

Hola, como esta? Alright, I can't continue on in that language.  Thanks for clicking your way back to this site, it was a wise idea, so you may now be prepared for the killer trivia night we have in store for you on Thursday.

This weeks theme is GAME SHOWS.  Hey- trivia night is kind of like a real life, in person, (as yet) un-televised game show.  So you already know about this stuff.  Cool.

The Magic Item- which will earn you 2 bonus points for bringing in is A WIG!  Hooray wigs!  It's Wig night!  You only need one to get points, and you don't even have to wear it, but you know you all want to show up in wigs.  It can be a goofy wig or a serious wig, I don't care, but it must be a real wig, designed to be used as such.

We are starting a BRAND NEW TOURNAMENT TOO!  So make sure you are there so you don't fall behind.  Remember that Trivia starts at 8:00pm.  Tell your friends (seriously, don't let them forget), "like" us on facebook (theres a link right on this page)  and get there early for good seats.  There's no more State Fair, no SU game, no Yankees game, and no excuse to miss it!
