2020 EXPERIMENT IN TRIVIA

October 23-24-25

Well now that the un-Trivia weekend is over we wanted to give you a brief summary of how it went.  We decided to play if for no other reason to see how it would work for the future. 

Overall it was good.  We scored in 258th place with 730 points.  We thought that was amazing considering it was just Bob-Mary and Sarah for a few hours here and there.  We didn’t do the pictures, music or stone clues and didn’t play during football, nor past bed time at 9 p.m. 

Once you registered you were given a log in and only one computer could be logged in at a time which was fine.  The computer kept track of hour and questions. And when your answer was submitted you weren’t allowed any other chances.  At least you didn’t have to call the station and hope you got through.  But wasn’t that part of the excitement of playing trivia? 

It was an experiment for everyone as Oz can attest.  Several times he mentioned they had problems where points and questions were lost.  And a few times they ended the hour early with problems and just played music.  Over all we could definitely see this as a new way to do trivia, especially once the glitches are figured out. 

But it just wasn’t the same without our trivia family and friends.  There wasn’t all that amazing food and beverage.  There weren’t all the laughs and talking.  And there weren’t bodies sleeping all over the house.  We missed all of this. 

This darn COVID thing seemed to cancel and ruin everything this year.  We’re hoping for a much better and improved trivia for next year, if there is a next year.  We hope you are keeping yourselves safe and healthy.  Here the link to the trivia page for scores and other.
