Final standings for Trivia Game Round 1. Everyone gets an extra point because I put the answer to Dirty Harry in the clue, and an extra point for participating. Otherwise, only the first one with the answer gets the point. 1: Lil Pun - 31 2: Jugdish - 25 3: DrLudicrous - 11 4: Castor27 - 10 5: moestavern19 - 7 6: Burzmali - 5 7: Colt45 - 3 8: Agent94 - 2 9: Joe Joe - 2 Totals for answering the questions regardless of whether they had been answered or not.

Maybe. I've never been particularly fond of sports trivia though. Since things invariably boil down to numbers and stats. And I've never been a huge stat-head. What I'll probably end up doing is making the clues a bit harder and more riddle-like. I had a couple that were very wordplayish, and will probably go further in that direction. That and not clue-dumping 80 at once. 20-25 at a time is probably a better idea.
Well you could answer the current questions just for fun. I can put up the answer key later, or you can just check other people. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for another go-around, maybe in a couple of days if I find some time.
