Hannah with the prizes!

If you hadn’t guessed already, we’re talking about the Geek Quiz! Thank you to everyone who came along, it was a great turnout and it was exciting to see some members from our sister geek society, LUSFAF (the Science Fiction and Fantasy society), joining in the fun. There were ten teams taking part in all, and they were:

• Team Stig: Nick, Steff and Prinn
• Traffic Laws For Flying Cars: Rob, Alan, Emily and Elliot
• Boots, Buckles and Boobs: James, Jamie, Tom and Lucy
• Schrodinger’s Team: Tim, Ben, Katy and Grendel
• Shadow Teddy’s Existential Kids Corner: James, Mark, Suzy and Alex
• Team GalacticAquaMagmaPlasmaRocket: Farran, Alex, David and Sophie
• Very Hungry Cthulhupuiller: Graham, Jenny, Lizzie and Nic
• Get Your Tits Out, Carl!: Smurf, Ash, Tony and Sam
• Gamesoc One: Jack, Dan and John
• Mystery Men: Tom, Dave and Becky

The winner of our lovely wooden spoon prize was Team Stig. By the time the quiz had finished, Team Stig was comprised of just Prinn, but he gallantly handed out his extra spoons to other Sabres.

The winner came down to a tie between Team GalacticAquaMagmaPlasmaRocket and Get Your Tits Out, Carl!, so we turned to Evil Dan for a tie-breaker question. How many Sabres could name all four of the sisters in Charmed? Apparently none, since both teams only got three sisters! So, the second tie-breaker was put to the crowd. One inappropriate suggestion later, we had Dave and Smurf representing their teams in an arm wrestle. Smurf clinched the contest, and the triumphant winners were Get Your Tits Out, Carl! Congratulations to Ash, Tony, Smurf and Sam.

As well as our normal rounds of questions, as written by Carl, we had the SUCKIT +3 (or King Geek) questions at the end of each round. These were written by the reigning King Geek himself, Evil Dan. Unsurprisingly, by the end of the quiz there was a clear leader, and even he only knew half of the answers. So I once again extend congratulations to Ash, who was knighted as the new King Geek by Tim in a beautiful ceremony.

Thank you to those who attended! If you weren’t there, watch out for a copy of the actual questions as soon as Caboose, our social secretary, releases them. We hope everyone had fun (even if that fun was just abusing Caboose) and will see you all next social.
