If it's any consolation, the geek factor for Friday's sf films Topix should shift considerably in your favor sometime around noon tomorrow... :mrgreen:

The OFFICIAL Day One yesterday we won 40 and lost 6 which is an improvement from last year (we lost 8).

Hopefully with SPOTES, STEVE and TURBO from 86th Street in Indy and our beloved SCARatings himself, TOPIX will be in the bag.

Also what obscure Think Again round in Spotlight will I can help with....lol

Agreed! I wish people would stop calling it a bash... much better than one of those "things".

Odds of BOTFLY being upright by game time?

Day 2 we went 41-4 (including a perfect Lunchtime and a win in Spotlight) so the record is 81-10 after two days (it's much better that last year)....now if we go under 7 losses , then day 3 will be so awesome.

We'll do same strategies as last year. On Playback if anyone knows the answer in the # rounds, just yell HIT IT and that way no one will lose -250.

And on Speed Freaks One person will be the lone box to win it for Bargos. FRANK will be the representative to outscore the other bars.

Of course, a California bar beat your Spotlight score. But surely that was only because you were all really tired and it was past your bedtime ;) :lol:

Wish the split didn't happen. We do miss that battle. Went 36-9 last night (was only one loss before Mr Lucky's in St Peters, MO (former Side Pockets - St Charles, MO players) gave us most of the losses in Late Shift.)

Actually, the year round didn't really work too well with that many boards, I got three zeros on ones I pushed the year right away on. I think our lead boards would have all been over 62K, as I can't remember anyone missing anything outside of the year round.

What a great time, I love these get togethers, hard to believe there are others out there that can play 100 games of trivia in a weekend.. Special shout out to Jeff/CHEESE for hanging in there and making it all work smoothly..

We were 25-0 at one point, from 11:00 to 9:00. Fletchers picked up a nice win in Ask It Already to break the streak....

All this brag and you haven't made the Sports Trivia board once! :mrgreen:

I can tell you I was bleeding points on the top box in the year and the get a clue round (averaged about 50 per round) and yes I would have been over 62 K

However, it was awesome as a bar to win Wednesday Six, Thursday Six, Spotlight and Playback against the best and brightest in the east feed

I agree the split stinks.

I'd like to salute Tolle for setting this up and Cheese for pretty much living at Bargos for four days. I played a couple of games on my way home and saw that Bargos was still winning. Well played!

Thanks to all who I saw again and who I met for the first.

Jeff n Dave, once again kudos for setting things up.

SCAR, for re-opening the forum so events like Triviapalooza can be posted when NTN shut theirs down....also it was very nice to finally met ya.

Patti, thanks for letting me assist on the name tags.

Bargo staff, great food n drinks and allowing this event to happen. The cooling machines worked better than simple fans from two years ago (even though I wasn't there in 2011).

TOOTS (Jess), awesome gummies....and a new found friend.

WBTANAKA, DUFF, and PENGWN, thanks for assistance on room & transportation.

TIEFLY, Thanks brutha for giving me what gonna be a great play handle for my extra account.

Hope Bargos can host an event even though it will not be a Triviapalooza

Thanks to CHEESE and the Bargos staff for putting together a very good weekend. Very nice to see old friends and was pleased to see some new faces this year. Looks like we'll move Triviapalooza to Baltimore next year and it will probably make its return to Bargos in 2015.

thanks to all for this weekend. i had a great time and got to meet some wonderful people. i didn't get to meet everyone as i would have liked, but i can honestly say i liked everybody that i did meet. i can see how this could be addictive. i would hate to miss any more.

jeff was an amazing trooper. did he ever take a break? thanks jeff, tolle, and patty.
