Quizbusters Round 6: Jackson Christian

 

Last episode of the season!

New Picture (3)

Quick Ten: Which vowel is used least often?  ‘U’.  Every member on the team answers at least one question; JC lives and dies with the kid that Kevin will match-up with in the Pop Quiz.  Up 70-30 after this round.

Toss-Up 1: Seems like Kevin know Hephaestus and Pandora and the liver in the bonus, but so did most of the team. Up 140-60 after this round.

Pop Quiz 1: The letters are t-o-l. Kevin gets beat to Tolkien; they both miss Toluca.  Kevin gets toll….house.  Getting the split with that kid from JC is a good thing!  Score is 200-80.

Toss-Up 2: Not much going on for the team here.  No toss-ups, so no bonus questions.  JC did not do well on the bonus though.. 200-120 at halftime.

Toss-Up 3: Finally get a toss-up; Kevin knows that Pluto is now a dwarf planet but I think did not know the other two questions. Unlike JC, the team sweeps the bonuses and pretty much ends the game with a big run.  350-140.

Pop Quiz 2: The letters are t-o-n again. Kevin walked in while I was re-watching the episode to do this blog entry.  Even before I got to this point, he said “make sure you write down that I was just a split-second late on all of those t-o-n answers!”.  Did not get ‘tonto’.  Did not get ‘Tonga’.  Did not get “Tony the Tiger”. 400-210

Toss-Up 4: Seems like Kevin knew the Tudor dynasty questions in the bonus category here; only won one toss-up but again swept all of the bonus questions.  450-280.

Lightning Round: Hey, Kevin buzzes in again; knows BYU is in Provo.  Knows Jimmy Carter was President from 1977-1980.  Final is 520-310.  And that’s that.
