OMG thank you for compiling that! Here's some more info gathered. I will re-check our actual records when I get home and verify all this.

I am also separating this into standard bar True Nerd Trivia wins and Recess Trivia wins because they are different games and Recess is a whole different ballgame (different members, larger team sizes, less questions, etc.).

Told you Jimb!

Look at those Recess stats!

This points out to me that when James, ET, Virago7, Doublethink and myself are all present we are unstoppable!

Now slow up there, skippy-doodle...

How many times have the Sinister Six's full ranks been at a Recess? Twice.

Out of those two times we won one of those events.

So don't start fluffing up your leaves there, Treebeard. Far as we're concerned, the official Nerd Trivia scores are the real meat and dumplings.

And last we checked...that tells a different tale.

In total...

Treebeard 10, Sinister Six 9 no?

[littleidiot]

Plus our founding member isn't 21 yet so we are naturally handicapped for the bar nights.

[Tekatana]

I would definitely agree you are naturally handicapped... But not because of any underage team members missing... Just in general.

You sir are colour-blindist!



Is that emoticon red or green?

[thomasflyn]

Awww, look at you still trying to convince yourself the Recess wins count. If that makes you feel better, Boopsie. You keep dreamin' the dream.

All the fronting is making me want to evert my cucumber innards.

I had an interesting brainstorm a while back, and now that Sea Cucumber has finally taken an untied first place, I think I'll toss it in the open. It felt fun to me if each winning team member was given an offer to submit a question or two for the next event, instead of competing in it. Is this a brilliant idea or a terrible one? Would it fall prey to, or prey upon, team cohesion?
