"Somebody" please post the Encore question and answers for Saturday (and the Saturday after that for just "One More Night") as I will be at soccer games on Saturday nights. "You're Celtic United but baby I've decided you're the best team I've ever seen"...actually the calibre of soccer I follow is a lot lower than that.

There mentioned all three headliners.

Thanks.

Speaking of soccer, you already know Rod Stewart was once a professional soccer player.

Of course I help you out again.

Phil Collins is clearly not my forte.

With Phil Collins finally getting the call, Faith Hill takes over as the current most rejected Headliner without getting the nod (4 times). Matchbox Twenty is second (3 times). After those two, we have one 2.5 timer and a bunch of time 2-timers.
I'll post the list, if anyone's interested.

Rejected 4 times, that's nothing...

I'd really like to help her with that if Tim is ever out of town

We ran the table...until the final question. We thought it was "Against All Odds" for sure. :roll:

I thought it was Against All Odds for sure, too. Whoops.

Fortunately, we had not run the table, so it didn't matter as much.

Same at Hardtimes, had all the last round then took 3 for final Q and was sure of it. Wrong..still ended up 36th with no boxes on the final.

Looking forward to Topix on Sat. in Sept. Late night TV on the 10th. Probably before Tuned In, about time Sat. night got some games besides Buzztime.

Not to mention that at BWW, every television, except for one trivia and one poker television, automatically went to UFC at 8:00. Note to self...check the listings for UFC night and avoid BWW.

Absolutely. I avoid BWW entirely on UFC night.

About time Saturday got some games at the expense of another Night.

Note to BT: There are no fucking games on Friday night so the sports guys won't give a shit about playing trivia.

I'm thinking it'll actually get slotted after Playback (only because starting a half hour game at :15 after the hour is a weird start time for a half hour game). IIRC, wasn't Topix once on at 10pm or 11pm in at least one of the time zones? That was back during the split-schedule days. There was nothing better than competing against only half of the USA/Canada :roll:

BUD · **Posted:** Mon Aug 08, 2011 11:26 am

I think BT is trying to break up that block of buzztimes. Maybe Topix will take 2 of them away on a half hour with 1 buzztime before Tuned In. 8:00 eastern is my guess for Topix followed by a buzztime then Tuned in.

Keeping that block of buzztimes intact and putting topix at 10 eastern would be terrible.

Hardtimes does UFC too. They turned every single TV to UFC except one for trivia. It's not bad at Hardtimes though, not too loud like BWW.

Maybe instead of taking TOPIX away from Friday to break up the string of BTs, maybe they should, I don't know insert a CD game (it used to be all CDs didn't it?). They have done nothing but fuck everything up.

TOOTS · **Posted:** Mon Aug 08, 2011 9:49 pm

They are starting a new sports related type game on Fridays which is why I believe a Topix is going to move to Saturday's. That's what we were told at Triviapalooza anyway.
