There are 6 Rounds with 3 questions per round. There is also a half-time question and a final question.

In each round, the moderator will announce three categories for that round. Players are provided with three point values to use. In the first three rounds, the point values are 1, 3, & 5. In rounds 4-6, the point values double to 2, 4, & 6. After each questions is asked, a team will provide its answer on a small slip with their team name, answer, and point value. Each point value can only be used one time per round. There are nine points possible in each of the first three rounds. There are twelve points available in the each of the last three rounds.

Sample Round question: What TV family lives at 742 Evergreen Terrace? -The Simpsons

Halftime Questions

After the third round of questions, there is a halftime question. This question will require teams to make a list of answers. Each answer will be worth two points. Participants will have 2 songs to answer this question, and we will take a short intermission for players.

Sample Halftime question: I'll give you an iconic fashion design, you give me the name of the famous designer who invented it.

The little black dress

The miniskirt

The mondrian dress

The birkin bag

The trench coat

At half-time, the moderator will calculate the scores and announce the standings before beginning round four.

After the sixth round, the moderator will again announce the updated standings.

Final Question

The final question will come after the standings are announced. Teams can wager 0-15 points on the final question. This question will typically give the teams a list and require the teams to put the list in a particular order.

Sample Final question: Put the following events in order from the earliest to the most recent:

Michael Jackson releases the Thriller album.

Sandra Day O’Connor becomes first female US Supreme Court Justice

Bruce Willis and Demi Moore get married.

The Cosby Show premiers on NBC.

We also do the “Numbers Game.” Here is how this works.

I will ask you four questions, where each answer is a number. Find the answer to each question, add the numbers together, and turn in the result along with a wager between 0-15 points. If you are within 2 points from the correct answer, you will get the points you wager. If you get the number exactly right, you will get your wager plus an additional 5 bonus points. Answer outside the margin, however, and you lose the amount of points you wagered.

1) # of zeroes in a trillion

2) Atomic # for Nitrogen

3) # of hockey teams that made up the original NHL between 1942 and 1967

4) # of lines in a sonnet poem

Tie

In the scenario of a tie for places 1-3, a tie-breaker question will be asked by the moderator. This question will ask for a specific number and the team who gets the closest wins. If there are more than two teams tied, the team that is closest wins, the team who is next closest gets second, etc.

Sample Tie Breaker question: How much money did the film Shrek 2 make at the box office?

- $441,226,247

After announcing the winners, our hosts will present the champions with their trophy, photograph the team with the trophy, and we immediately post the photo online at www.bigtrophytrivia.com
