2/15/2010 -- Post Valentine's Hangover

It was damn full when I started trivia last night, but fear not, my friends -- the sound of my voice cleared the room in short order.  Well, cleared the room of all but the most dedicated trivianauts, that is.

My best moment of the night was when a couple of young women swore at me and told me that the quiz was too obscure and too hard.  That always brings warm fuzzies to my head.  On the off chance that you remember what website to look at for this recap, thanks ladies!

I didn't think that things were going to be particularly difficult, and I was right, at least in the case of the top three teams.

In 3rd place, proving that, for team size at least, bigger isn't always better, with 93 points, Paddy O'Furniture.

Alas, they didn't know their star-crossed lovers.  So very sad.

In second place, with 95 points, Vomicorns.

These are but two of the four members of this team that is relatively fresh to our proceedings.  The other two had to skate quickly because they had to "get up in the morning".  I have never encountered such a lame excuse in my life.  I think I might need a note from their Mother.  To demonstrate what their team name signified, they drew me a picture of a puking unicorn.  If we awarded extra credit, they might get some -- or they might get points taken away.  It's both funny and disturbing.

In first place, with 106 big points, Slab City!

This is another group of relative newcomers to the proceedings, proof that I don't play favorites.  They took the unusual step of bonusing their first round, something that makes me think that they've been keylogging my computer.  Oh, well, time for my deviousness to ratchet up a notch or two.

See you all next Monday for the last quiz of February!
