The Biggest and Wettest Lake in all the land! No Quiz Next Week!

Quick reminder: Quiz Bowl II is coming this December:

Quiz night got a little rowdy this Thursday evening at the Grafton Ale House. $10 pitchers were flowing and there was a scare in the air, as sudden death round ensued to determine second place.

Grafton quiz veterans Squad 666 went head to head with Arnold Schwarzenegger put his Thunderballs inside Hilary Clinton, although the latter prevailed following the tie breaker question...

They teamed up with namesakes Hilary's Rod-ham for their post quiz pic.

In other news, it was Lake Michigan may be the biggest lake, but Lake Titicaca is the Wettest that took the best team name prize...

They were the week's people's champs!

And remember no quiz next Thursday due to Thanksgiving, but Wednesday 16th November the Grafton Ale House will have a DJ and $3 Miller Lite, craft beer and rail specials!

Quiz returns on December 1st!

Until next time Milwaukee, drink while you think...

How the league works
Team scores over a predetermined number of weeks are accumulated in a table. The team with the highest cumulative score at the end of that period is crowned league champions and also wins an additional prize for its efforts.

Leagues vary in length, anywhere between 4-8 weeks. Each venue's league is independent of the next, as are the league prizes.

Your Team Name
During the league season it is advised that teams keep a consistent name from week-to-week in order for the Quizmaster to track scores. Teams playing under different names each week during a league will have their scores tallied separately.

Bye Weeks
Allowing flexibility, each venue grants so many bye weeks during its league. Under this rule, a team is allowed to miss so many weeks knowing they can still compete in the league. In the event that a team is present for the entire duration of the league their weakest scores are subtracted...

For example, over the course of an eight week league all team's are granted two bye weeks. If they miss two weeks they effectively score zero in their absence - but all team's will be judged on their six best results from the eight weeks of league play.

*Overall Score vs "Best Score"
The league table indicates each team's overall score and best score. Ultimately, the best score is all that matters as this score accounts for the bye week(s) allowed in the league. In some cases the overall score and best score may be the same depending on whether that team has missed a week (or more) of play.
