Hello all, I would like to thank everybody who came out tonight. It was kind of a crazy night, as those of you who came to quiz already know, but we made it through and that's an awesome miracle. Now that makes it seem like it was an absolute crazy night, well it was but not for the reasons you think. Curious, of course you are but this was one of those had to be there nights. As far as the quiz goes we had rounds on orphans and the men who adopt them, weird. Songs about hogs and musicians and there states. A round as mature as any Pee Wee Herman joke and a round that was all thumbs, literally. GWD the only place where swastikas become a lovely peace sign. Wanna know how round 6 went, well me too. Like I said a strange night, maybe it was all for the better, I am kinda glad I didn't have to say retard too many times into the mic. Then it was followed by a round of kings in their court and maybe some king like peeps. Then that tricky round 8. Wanna know what my favorite question was, it might surprise you, what is the plural of codex, it's codices!!! Know why I like, because it's beautiful in it's simplicity. Am I right!? After tonight thats about all I got, again thank you for coming out, hope you all had a blast and I can't wait to see you all next week. Have a fan-freakin-tastic weekend. Peace

I need to open with an apology here. To everyone who made it out to Rapture last night: I'm sorry. You were subjected to what could be the worst Jewish grandmother impression in the history of impressions, grandmothers, and Abrahamic faiths. I'm pretty sure I ended up sounding more like Paul Hogan than any of the lovely ladies down in Boca Raton.
Despite my aural torture, we had a great night. You folks nailed your movies, bible references, and the often challenging random knowledge. Although we had a surprise double helping of 16-point audio rounds, both of them produced some slim scores. I suggest boning up on your mediocre sitcoms and disco.
Not really, though. Who the hell wants to spend their time studying those when they could be watching an Arrested Development marathon?
Speaking of Arrested Development, I'm pretty sure my shift from player to quizmaster last night is what allowed historic champs Axis of C'Ville to finally regain their title. Well played, gentlemen, but your throne is starting to look a little like that rusty one in Westeros. Better bring your A-game next week.

What up fools!!!? The turnout tonight was, to say the least, a real surprise, see round 5 if you don't believe me. So many teams, I love this quiz because you never know whats gonna happen sometimes a 5th place team last quiz can be a first place team, looking at you NoodleBar. Yep, thats right our big winner tonight was Noodlebar, sorry to bury the lead. “Where was Axis of Cville” you ask, they must have at least made second place right? Wrong, I think they had a little trouble getting their shit together a late arrival and being short a few team members cost them any kind of medal placing. So who were our second and third place teams. Well that would be Aaron Neville Long Bottom and Montreal Diving Club respectively. As I stated at tonight’s quiz, that joker can be a real bitch, tonight’s 6th place team and our 3rd place team had only a difference of about 4 or 5 points. I could check on the actual numbers, I mean I have them right here but I'm not gonna, the point is it was a close match and I'm sorry Kittens Mittens that you were bit in the ass by that jovial juggalo-esque joker in the corner.
Now, as far as the actual quiz questions I really like tonight’s quiz.....or did I?!! Round 1 you all did fantastic, some of you were too late to get any benefit from that round but what are you gonna do. Round 2 however you guys still did pretty good, I like this rounds theme title cause in no way could you call these Mashups so they must be Unmashups, I mean what else could you call them? Oh I know, two songs played really close to each other, boom!!!! Round 3, hey, this is GEEKS who drink if you don't know most of your JLA members than you, sir, are shit out of luck. That being said I had not heard of Atom, I'm guessing he was a little guy.
Some people get Nam flash backs I'm going to get Billy round 5 flash backs, you think you print enough but you don't. Thats okay teams can share....Oh wait you mean you've written the answers on the sheet so you can't share, well that's a GD nightmare. Glad we can work it out and I still have no idea what was going on that round, your answers were straight up gibberish! So nerds do love video games but they probably hate sports. Wanna watch them feel conflicted, confused, happy and maybe a bit angry have an entire round about sports video games, specificity one that is a 90's kid sugar plum fairy wet dream. Thats pretty much what we got out of round 6 tonight. Round 7, you crazy, why? Cause Australia be crazy and so is me having to fill mind boggling silence between each clip/question to give my loverly quiz teams time to think. I desperate man on a mic trying to fill is a sad say thing. Well whatever confusion those last couple rounds caused it didn't matter cause you guys nailed round 8, you know that random knowledge round! Thats the one! I think the lowest score was a 12, thats pretty damn good honestly and the highest score was a perfect round by our winners NoodleBar, that does not happen often so hats off to you!!! So quiz is done but the weather is nice out so you guys enjoy your week and I hope to see you all next week. Welp thats been quiz!!!
