Very Hard Trivia

11/03/2026

A Court of Trivia and Retribution bounced back from an 8th-place finish to win Week Seven with 279 points, and their every-other-week habit continues: they've now won Weeks Three, Five and Seven! Last Ditch Effort and The NeuroInsurgents tied for second at 275, just four points back, and Jeff Can Probst Me posted the night's best List Round with a very impressive 90.

The win puts A Court of Trivia and Retribution back on top of the standings, four TP ahead of Last Ditch Effort heading into the final week of the regular season. Six teams have locked up playoff spots. Jeff Can Probst Me and Trivial Purrsluts hold the last two, and Survival of the Bi***es is the only team that can still catch them!

DON'T FORGET - for every player you bring to trivia that has never played with us before, your team gets 5 BONUS POINTS. Help make sure we make our night worth MB's time and money and grow what we have to be even more fun.

This week's theme is...21ST CENTURY HIP HOP! Drop the mic, not the points.

See y'all at MB Lounge at 7pm Thursday (to secure your spot!)! Trivia starts at 7:30.

Honk Ball came out swinging in Week Six, putting up 288 points to take the night by 14 over I Will Always Glove You. That's a big jump from an 8th-place finish the week before, helped by a room-best 40 bonus points. Jeff Can Probst Me also had their best night yet, landing on the podium for the first time this season with 249.

I Will Always Glove You's runner-up finish was enough to jump them to the top of the standings, the first time anyone other than A Court of Trivia and Retribution has held first place since Week One. It's tight up there: the top three are separated by just FOUR Tournament Points!

A Court of Trivia and Retribution shook off a rare off night in Week Four and roared back to take Week Five with 239 points, 27 clear of the field, thanks in part to an 80-point List Round. That extends their lead atop the standings to six Tournament Points, with Last Ditch Effort and I Will Always Glove You now tied for second!

Ten teams last week! Welcome back to Survival of the Bi***es, and welcome to (my favorite team) Wirth a Shot, who finished seventh in their debut.

A Court of Trivia and Retribution took Week Three with 216 points, helped by a monster 36-point final flash round. That's three straight top-three finishes for them, and they've now opened up an eight-point lead atop the standings. Behind them, The NeuroInsurgents grabbed their second straight runner-up finish, and just NINE points separated second place from fourth!

Thanks to all eight teams who came out last week!

I have built our website, which will be a great place to stay on top of trivia rankings, posts here, the projected playoff seeds, past winners/highlights, and all sorts of things. Would love for y'all to check it out and let me know what you think!

Give this a share if you feel like it.

Last season's #1 and #2 regular-season finishers didn't make it to the playoff final, but they picked right back up to open Season Thirteen, taking the top TWO spots in Week One! Satchel of Richards edged out A Court of Trivia and Retribution by just ONE point for the win.

Thanks to everyone who came out for our Season Thirteen opener; love packing the bar out on week one.

Not to get you excited, but got a bit of a branding update coming in the next few weeks. Maybe sooner. 😈

That was pretty easily the craziest opening round we've EVER seen at Trivial Trivia. For the first time in our history, the one AND the two seed were eliminated in the opening round!

Huge shoutout to our power players this season - She/They/Shaun and our returning champions who won fully half of our regular season games, Middle Americans!

With those teams eliminated, the title is anyone's to grab! And with only one night to get from four remaining teams to one, what craziness will ensue?

If you've been eliminated, please still join us tomorrow! This will be our final night of trivia until September and I want to see your pretty faces one more time.

A two-team race for the top spot was won by our returning season champions - Middle Americans!

While only eight teams will qualify for the tournament, remember that ALL TEAMS are invited to come play with us! Only the eight teams will be working toward a championship, but we can have far more than eight teams playing! And if one or more teams that qualify don't show up, we will pull starting from ninth place, etc.

And as a reminder, during the tournament, you MAY NOT have any new players on your team. If they didn't play for you during the regular season, they can't play for you during the tournament.
