I just called the Emigrant and the quiz is on.
Anyone who shows, see you there. I’m planning on around 7:00.
I’ll be there, and my friend John will be showing also. With the no limit team, it shouldn’t be a problem.
The Emigrant it is.
Wow. That was sucktacular.
The quiz! Not the people. The quiz!
Ironic addendum: turns out Husker Don’t didn’t compete at the Old Pequliar last night.
So, are we going to try Kate’s Pub tonight, or should we stick with the OP this week?
I can’t do Kate’s Pub, because I’m hosting at the OP. But you’re welcome to go listen to someone else yammer on if you want to. They probably won’t discuss your cupcakes with the entire bar – at least, not the first time you play.
Turns out I’m tied up tonight. So, no Kate.
But I am all set to kick the ass of whatever quiz will be delivered tomorrow night. Oh baby.
Okay, no Kate tonight. I can’t make tomorrow night – or, if I can, I will be quite late. So do us proud in my absence!
I’m almost sure I’ll be at the Old Pequliar tonight. I hear there’s a quiz that needs to be kicked in the ass.
As long as you’re confining your ass-kicking to the quiz, and not the host, I’ll be happy to see you.
The quiz is asking for it. As long as you don’t ask for it, you’re safe.
What do you say to a quiz that has two black eyes?
Please don’t answer that. Anyway, I haven’t felt dumb all week, so quiz here I come!
Well, we lost by 21 points. Are you proud of us?
But that means we came in second, for a $35 payoff. Husker Don’t got 70 out of 80 total points for the quiz. We got 49, and everyone else trailed somewhere behind.
I’m really looking forward to the day we get to beat those guys. Maybe we should challenge them to a jumping-jack contest?
I think that Husker Dont is playing against the gam, not us. They were closer to the perfect game than we were to beating them.
I’m not really worried about it. Not like we can study for this or get smarter, cause we’r already pretty darn smart.
I’m beginning to theorize that he’s either Nero Wolfe or Mycroft Holmes.
I think my scorekeepers accidentally gave HD an extra 10 points – so they may have only beaten you by 11 points, not 21. I’ll have further info on that later today.
Good game, nonetheless. It’s like playing golf with Tiger Woods – all you can do is do your best and enjoy trouncing everyone else for second place.
Next week, though, Seth has made it his sworn mission to write a quiz that HD won’t win. I’m a little afraid of what that might entail.
Roger Federer is a better comparison. We just need to figure out how to get him on clay.
You heard it here first: Husker Don’t’s actual final score was 62. Yours was (should’ve been) 45, and Track Pants Lap Dance came in 3rd with 43. So our haphazard math skills change the tallies, but not the results. Thank god.
So you were only beaten by 17 points! Yay!
Both the quiz and the answers are online now, by the way.
So what’s the plan this week? Shall we concede our impotence in the face of the Husker Don’t juggernaut and effect a temporary retreat? Specifically, by giving this Kate gal a tumble on Monday?
