How Brainstorm Works.

The way it works is that a trivia question will be posted every day and a riddle posted every week. You will submit your answer in the comment section along with confidence points you want to apply (1-5).

All questions will be up until the end of the month so submit when ever you like. Standings will be updated every month.

Good luck and have fun.

Tight Match, But Again Third Place | Team Trivia DFW

What up folks?  So my team, Trivial Tangent has returned in a much stronger force than last week.   Along with Cynthia, Richard and myself, we were reinforced by Heather, Jason, Maggie, Mindy and Sarah.  We were up against two other veteran teams, Aged & Confused and The Lucky Kermits, plus a semi-new team, Fantastic Four.  We had the great pleasure to sit next to our rivals, Aged & Confused.  Kind of touchy, but cool.  

The first have was very, very close with most of the questions everyone got correct and we killed on the half time question which was on naming 4 movies that Tim Burton directed that didn't star Johnny Depp.  I, being a huge fan of Tim Burton (2nd in my all-time list of directors after Quinten Tarantino), I was able to come up with the four films.  Sweetness.  I may use that question for my own trivia game, Mental Turbulence.  The scores after the first half were:

34 Trivial Tangent
32 The Lucky Kermits
31 Aged & Confused
25 Fantastic Four


The second half continued the tight battle between the top three teams.  The Tangent felt they had some struggles, but after getting the scores before the final round, we learned that the others just about had the same struggles.  Those scores were:

59 The Lucky Kermits
57 Aged & Confused
56 Trivial Tangent
37 Fantastic Four


The final question didn't seem too tough, but pretty tricky.   We had to find out which two countries were on both of the following top ten lists; largest in area and the least densed population.  Every team got the answer wrong by only picking one of the two right answer.   The final scores were:

57 - The Lucky Kermits
42 - Aged & Confused
41 - Trivial Tangent
24 - Fantastic Four

It was a great matchup and we hope for another one next Monday.   Come on out and join us at J R Bentley's on Abrams in Arlington at 7 pm.
