A Few Words About Us

ADVANCES
August 15
I’m starting to wonder if there is something special about the number “32”. I keep track of all the scores in all the venues for every team. This is week 32! When we went on the trivia cruise in July, there were 32 in our group! Next week, when we go to see the Hagerstown Boxcars, there will be 32 in our group! If it comes up again, I am going to find a way to play that number in the Powerball! It must be lucky, because it means Bill and I get to spend quality time with 30 of our trivia players!
Here are the advance questions and answers for this week. The questions: What was the name of the first satellite put into orbit by the United States? The Civil War battle that took place farthest north occurred in which state? Demanding it not be displayed in Spain until after the Franco dictatorship was over, which painter created Guernica as an anti-war piece? And the unrelated answers: The Great Gatsby, Igor Stravinsky, Kansas City Chiefs.
Have a great week! And we will see you at trivia!

FLAGSHIP TRIVIA AT THE BOXCARS
August 3
August 3
Take me out to the ballgame! We are going to go to the Hagerstown Boxcars game on Saturday, August 22. The game starts at 6:00. If we can get at least 2 people to go, tickets will only be $10. If not, the tickets will be $16. I will buy the group tickets, and you repay me. I need to know by next weekend if you want to go, and I will need your money so I can buy the tickets. Food and drink will be your responsibility. As a bonus, if we can get at least 20 people signed up, they will recognize our group on the scoreboard!
TWO THINGS
March 11
I feel I need to bring up a couple of issues. One was dealt with a couple of years ago and now is coming back. The other is a clarification.
First, we ask you not to bring pages of research with you. When we used to announce the theme round in advance, teams would print out the internet and bring it with them. We don't announce the theme round in advance any longer to make it more fair to all the teams. So I thought this problem had gone away. We do give you the advance questions over the weekend ahead. I know that some people like to research the questions in advance of the weekly game. But I've heard that some teams seem to be taking this to the extreme. Please don't bring excess printouts of research with you to the game. If it continues to be a problem, I will have to discontinue posting the advance questions on the weekend and then everyone will get them at the same time, when the teams come in for the game. I have always strived to make this a fair and fun game for everyone. If a team is bringing a pile of papers with them as resources, it gives the impression that the team may have other resources (state capitals, periodic table of elements, list of presidents, etc.). If you want to look up the advance questions at home, you shouldn't have more than one page.
Second, I know that some trivia companies allow the last-place team to choose the next week's theme round. Here are a couple of things that are different from the way we do it. First, I have six locations. That means there would be six teams that finish last. I can't have 6 theme rounds. Also, I don't announce the theme rounds in advance. As I said above, when I did, some teams would conduct reams of research. Also, I found that by announcing the theme round in advance, it put teams that came in to have dinner and decide to play trivia. They won't have had the chance to do research which puts them at a disadvantage.
Please remember the number one goal of Flagship Trivia is that everyone have fun! Have fun, folks!
