Welcome to the 8 Question Quiz! The rules are simple: 8 questions from this week's theme. Ten points for every correct answer. You get one triple-up to assign to any question. Get that question right and you earn triple points! A perfect score is 100. Can you get a perfect 100? This week's theme is This Round Will Need a Designated Driver - Today's quiz is all about different kinds of shots (not just the 21+ variety!). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more info about the Patreon, Discord, supporting the show, and to learn how to sign up to be a guest on the show follow this link --> https://linktr.ee/knowledgequestpodcast Speaking of support, shoutout to our amazing Patreon Supporters!: Jane Hansen / Tim Gomez / Dustin G. / Chris Brewer / Ian Schulze / Matt Lamia **Newest Member of the Quest** For more info on private events, or for any suggestions or comments/question ideas, DM us on Instagram @knowledgequesttrivia or email Lucas at [email protected]!

Welcome to Point Pursuit! Here are the Rules: Players are presented with three question types: Multiple Choice, Open-Ended, and Triple Trouble, sometimes called Plural Possibilities. On their turn, a player selects one of the two available categories under any question type. Multiple Choice questions are worth 20 points, Open-Ended questions are worth 40 points, and Triple Trouble questions are worth 60 points. The selected question is read to both players. The player who chose the category gets the opportunity to answer first. If they answer correctly, they earn the full point value of the question. The opponent also has a chance to answer. If the opponent answers correctly, they earn half of the question’s point value. Once a category has been selected, it is removed from play and immediately replaced with a new category. The opponent then takes their turn selecting a category. After each round, players face off in a Brawl. For the Brawl, six categories are presented, and one is randomly selected. Players then go back and forth naming correct answers that fit the Brawl category. The Brawl continues until the list is completed or a player gives an incorrect answer. If a player answers incorrectly, their opponent gets the opportunity to go on a streak, naming as many correct answers as they can until the list is completed or they give an incorrect answer. Every correct answer in a Brawl is worth 5 points. Before the Brawl begins, the player with the lower score gets a strategic advantage: they choose whether they want to go first or second. After the Brawl is complete, the next round begins. Play continues for five rounds, followed by the final Brawl. When the final Brawl is over, the player with the most points is declared the winner! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HAPPY 50TH EPISODE Y'ALL!

Today's guest is...well it's me technically, but I am appearing on another great podcast to host some bird-themed trivia! If you know nothing about birds, don't worry--there are plenty of ways into these questions! Big shoutout to Mathew for the great success of his show and Levi for his progress in vet school! How much does this father-son team know about ducks, peregrine falcons, and migration? Listen to find out! Go and check out Birds Eye View, it is an amazing show that you should check out, even if you think birding is not your thing (I recommend listening to Just About the Birds as a good starting point).

They must choose 8 to play in the main game, then assign each category a point value from 1–8 based on confidence level. Higher confidence means higher risk and reward. The 8 chosen categories are played in order from 1 point to 8 points. Correct answers earn the assigned points; incorrect answers earn nothing. Since the values 1 through 8 are all used once, the main game is worth a maximum of 36 points. After questions 2, 4, and 6, the player faces a Bonus Round based on categories they submitted ahead of time. Winning a Bonus Round grants a major advantage in the Final Round: the ability to personally choose one category that will appear in the final board. The 7 unused categories become the pool for the Final Round, but only 4 will actually be played. Normally those categories are selected randomly, but each Bonus Round victory allows the player to lock one category into the final lineup. Winning all three Bonus Rounds means controlling three of the four Final Round categories. In the Final Round, the player sees all 4 questions at once and may answer as many as they choose. Scoring for the Final Round is cumulative:1 correct answer = 3 points2 correct answers = 6 points3 correct answers = 10 points4 correct answers = 15 pointsBUT the catch is, if just one answer is wrong, the whole round is worth ZERO points! With 36 possible points in the main game and 15 in the Final Round, a perfect game of Trivial Choices is worth 51 points. Have a comment, question, or idea? Let us know here! Support the show
