Pour yourself an adult beverage or your favorite mocktail or fizzy water — join us again this Tuesday for TRIVIA WITH THE BENS! We want to thank all of you so very much in continuing to support our game, with tonight being our 12th outing!
About Our Game:
Our format is four rounds of eight questions each, and the questions will get a little more difficult with each round (our format is a fond tribute to the Fox & Goose pub quiz hosted by Kevin Ice for many years).
Since we are sponsored as a Capital Science Communicators #CapSciCommLive event, all the questions will have a STEM connection to them — and we may also sprinkle in questions related to our Sacramento or Northern California region!
Our House Rules:
- Teams: There’s no limit on how many people to a team. Whether you’re playing solo, or with your family or roommates, or even remotely with friends over text or chat, come up with your team name and join us! (And we love it when you tweet team selfies! Make sure you tag @TriviaWithBens and #CapSciCommLive!)
- Questions: Ben and Ben will be posting each question on our Twitter feed at twitter.com/TriviaWithBens. Live audio/video line is available to current CapSciComm Professional and Student Members only.
- Scoring: We’ll read out answers after each round — you are on your honor to score your own answer sheets. (No partial points are given in our game.)
- No Peeking! Finally, no checking your phone or the internet or your home bookshelf for answers while playing! This isn’t a Googling contest!
- Winners Circle: To have your scoresheet verified for the Winners Circle, please tweet a photo of your completed answer sheets and tag @TriviaWithBens or email that photo to [email protected]. We’ll verify your scores and announce the Winners Circle on the following day!
Thank you all for continuing to keep our local community vibrant and united during these unprecedented times. Together, we can stay strong and stay connected — and #KeepScienceSpicy!
See you on Tuesday night!
Ben Nicholson and Ben Young Landis
