Billy @ Metal Shop
This Monday, May 18, saw a good turnout for the first trivia event held at rock club the Metal Shop. Billy2Times Krams will be hosting trivia there Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00 to 8:00pm. Monday nights, he'll be bringing music to the masses in question form, while the Wednesday format consists of pop culture-heavy general knowledge. Other nights of the week, the Metal Shop hosts rock music and dancing.
Owners Vegas Ember and JH Fall recently moved the year-old Metal Shop to its current location on Sundance Isle sim. The move brings along two welcome changes. One is the new trivia, of course, but according to the proprietors, the other is less lag, which is something everyone can love. Billy kicked off his event by dealing out L$30/20 prizes for first and second place on Monday, though they will typically be L$20/10 for a slate of twenty-five questions.
Lou @ [MonoChrome]
Little Lou Netizen makes big by taking on Saturdays at [MonoChrome] from 12:00 to 1:00pm. She'll be dealing out L$50 per answer for each of twenty questions at her opening gig on May 23. The questions will be general knowledge, with varying difficulty levels. She'll have some gimmes and some stumpers. Word on the street is she'll be building this event up to be something unique and original, so support her on the first day so you can see how it evolves.
Lette @ The Grotto
I've been invited to host a themed trivia event for custom build and prefab store Culture Cannibals as they add a line of caskets to their stock of household items. The trivia will focus on vampires and the occult, with 40 questions at L$25 each, plus some fabulous store giveaway bonus prizes, including a sarcophagus modeled after one from the Medici Chapel of the Princes in Florence. If I can twist some of your arms to join me, it will be a super, fun event!

Just to add to the insanity of the weekend, Armada is having a special weekend trivia event from 11am-12pm SLT on Saturday. This is to accommodate the Monday holiday (US) and to let the Europeans get in on the fun. 15 questions, 40L each.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, really looking forward to checking out these new events -- especially whatever Lou has up her sleeve!
I was there at Metal Shop for Billy2times game the other night, and he did a bang up job. It was one sweet night.
ReplyDeleteI for one intend to be at Lou's for her triv on Saturday, as well as the single event based trivia at Culture Cannibal Zilz's place. CCZ is a great gal, and has talked about perhaps creating ongoing occasional events, so even though this might not be a regular venue, you owe it to your trivia loving self to head on over there on Saturday and check it out. Besides, my personal favourite Trivia Queen is hosting, how could I stay away.
