I am doing a trivia contest this weekend that is run by a local College. I am trying to come up with a cool team name. I figured you guys/gals would have some good ideas you might be willing to share. Anyone interested in playing let me know as well. I could use the help and it is broadcast over the web. The contest runs from 10pm tonight until midnight Sunday. Thanks!
Jim

How does the contest work? Do you have to be online the entire time to answer questions?

They ask questions about every 5 minutes or so and if you know the answer you call in the answer. You can guess too, so even if you do not know the answer you can try. It runs 50 straight hours. It is a lot of fun. If you want some more info look here:

I have been playing since I was a kid. If there is enough interest maybe we could put together an FOF team?

So you have to stay at the computer for 50 hours? I don't think so...I'd join a team and take a "shift" though if that was how it was set up.

This is the first year it is webcast only. It used to be on the radio. Maybe we could set up a Trivia thread and whenever you felt like tuning in you could let me know if you knew/found and of the answers. A lot of the answers are pretty obscure, so yu really need to rely on google and Yahoo.

That would work for me :)

A phrase of which an entire TV quiz show was commissioned over here - somebody else liked the name and then made a terrible show based on this one joke, with Al Murray hosting... Al Murray! He should be above this...

As for team names: Norfolk and Clue?

I'm not sure why, but I found this quite funny.

A Priest, Rabbi and Stripper Walk Into A Bar... and there's your name. You can modify as the weeks go on. Substitue, etc.

A lot of great name ideas...Thanks for the help! I ended up going with the Gaza Strippers. Thanks Captain2711

The contest begins shortly...If anyone wants to help I am going to make a new thread with questions and answers. Just to forewarn you they are off the wall and usually require a lot of googling.
