Boom Shacka-lacka... Chaka? Sshhhacha?....nevermind

Pineapple Hill Sallon, Triva, and a King's Game? Could the night get any better?

The evening opened up with confidence and 6 teams successfully doubling down. Unfortunately "I can't read what you've written there" was unsuccessful with only one incorrect answer, but for a solo player here for the beer, attitude could not be sunnier

Round 2 had some strong double-downs and a shocking goose-egg for Running with Caesars, but they brought it back being not only the only team to double-up in round 3, but also the only team to score higher than 4 points, taking a commanding push into podium contention.

Round 4 had everyone in suspense, trying to escape minus points, and most teams worked their magic with the 6 point clue.

Round 5 started to get serious after teams were bitter and stoutly defeated in the drinking round by "Caesars.

Round 6 saw an amazing flurry of jeers as teams [REDACTED]------------------------------------------------!

Round 7, after the infamous [REDACTED] incident in round 6, where 3 teams [REDACTED] until [REDACTED] everyone agreed to move forth as respectful competitors, but not before [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] to [REDACTED].

Fun was had by all, but none more than the Quizmaster, who got to watch it all [REDACTED].

What a killer night. Mostly regulars turned out which meant competition was as stiff as a starched collar on a winter night.

Round 1 threw enough teams into the realm of doubt to prevent any early double-downs, but in round 2,  4 teams successfully grabbed 12 points.

Everyone's favourite drug-using pitcher was enough to throw There's Always Next Week under the bus and ruin their hopes for a double-down, falling behind 3 teams who capitalized on their confidence and locked in another 12 points. Round 4 was more or less split between teams who waited for the second and fourth clues, but it was the drinking round that had everyone applauding as the representative from Pineapple Analytica guessing the exactly correct year that smokeless gunpowder was invented.

Round 5 spread the field again with some goose eggs due to double-downs. Round 6 saw five teams score 20 points with double downs that no one risked for the 2-part Round 7

A tie-breaker for the Game amazing! With getting the closest guess without going over, Tequila Mockingbirds won the day (even if they still shorted it by 2,800 psi).

It was a night of upsets, and not just being upset with double downs. We had teams cheering and jeering each other the whole night through, and congratulating or commiserating over the effects of double-downs.

There's Always Next week was the first out of the gate with a successful double down and maintained a steady stride all game ending in Second Place

Tequila Mockingbirds steadily improved their scores each round, securing several Double-Downs that proved essential for the win.

The real excitement came, however, with a tie-breaker for 3rd place between The Biscuiteers and The Kids' Table, pitting their representatives in 3 head-to-head tie breaking questions in which the $10 3rd-Place giftcard went to regulars The Kids Table.
