If one were to discount the shutouts, we're otherwise perfect so far. Nice. Not like this is going to last....

It's almost 10:15 and trivia hasn't started yet. What happened to 10:00:37?

Hello once again everyone. We’re down to less than ten hours now until this year’s trivia contest commences. Going into this year’s contest we know that it will be difficult to repeat the kind of success that we had last year (1145 points, 5th place), but we’ll try our best even with our limited personnel.

There will be a little extra space in the War Room this year, as many long-time team members are either unable to make it this weekend or will be limited to short cameo appearances as their work schedules permit. For those unable to make it back this year, I hope you get an opportunity to follow along throughout the weekend, and we shall do our best to keep the Web site updated so you can follow our progress.

We as a team want to thank Dr. Jekyll’s for sponsoring us once again this year. We’ll be meeting up there for some pre-trivia merrymaking tonight sometime between 7:00 and 8:00. Everyone is invited to stop on down and grab a drink with us before dispersing to our various hovels for the weekend. We will then begin assembling in the War Room starting at 9:00 tonight in preparation for the contest.

We also want to thank all of our mothers who are making delicious food for us this weekend. Your generosity in keeping us fed has long been vital to a successful weekend, and we thank you all.

I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible this weekend, and best of luck to all of the other teams that are participating this year.

Hello everyone! It has been a long time since we last posted an entry here, but I wanted to assure all of you that Too Much Trivia in the Pants is returning for our eleventh consecutive year in the contest. After the success of last year, how could we not return for another year?

For all of you team members who have not checked your e-mail or MySpace accounts recently, I suggest you check you inboxes, as I sent out this year’s annual trivia e-mail, and I want to make sure you have the info about this year’s location.

And, for those who haven’t heard, I’ll be home for a whole week for trivia, so feel free to give me a call any time from the Wednesday before trivia through the Wednesday after, as I hope to meet up with as many of you as possible.

Oh, and one more thing: we are planning to meet up with some other teams for drinks on Friday night before the contest as has become our routine, so all team members interested in the details should e-mail or text message me before then, and I’ll be sure to let you the details of when and where.

Sooo… according to our scoresheet, we have 1155 points, but according to the official trivia master spreadsheet we have only 1145. I still have no idea where those missing ten points are, and apparently we’ll never know.

Nevertheless, folks, it’s T-minus ten minutes until Garruda time.

Everyone’s showing up or waking up (but I’m not going to go so far as to claim we’re sobering up), and we’re getting ready for the sprint to the finish. Might as well try to finish strong, right?

…and you get this image:

Dear Diary,

According to the "What Kind of Slut Are You?" quiz, Sean is a worthless slut. We knew it all the time, but now we have the quiz to prove it.

Dear Diary,

Kris is awake and kicking ass, motherfuckers! I think this “coffee” (I’m currently drinking Leinenkugel’s coffee) is helping. Let’s roll!

-k.

4:15 am. Krist is still asleep but we're doing fine. We're currently in 4th place.

We just tied last year's score.

Squishy made a big deal about having to leave to go drop a giant deuce. He came back after about 30 seconds and claimed it was "just some gas, but a lot of it."

Squishy is owning girl hour.

We forgot to mention it but earlier today there was a film crew here filming a documentary on the trivia contest. They also interviewed Krist about his adult film career.

Triviamaster Paul stopped by for a visit along with his harem.

According to the triviamasters, they "are a trivia contest not a drunk baby-sitting service" and strongly advised whichever team has members like that they should pick them up. Maybe we should pick up Zach and Luke....

We had slowed down considerably, but things have definitely picked up since Geno came back. That, and I think Dave’s drunk is starting to wear off.

The trivia masters have definitely slowed their pace, but we’ve all slowed down as well. It didn’t help any that we didn’t have a lot of luck with Space Hour. I have a feeling things are going to pick up soon.

Zack is shimmying to the oldies, and rubbing up against the now painfully sober Corey.

Currently 8 for 8 on the last 8 questions, which ties our record for this weekend.

…because otherwise they’re going to run out of question by noon on Sunday.

Aren’t your clothes dry yet?

Sorry folks, we put in a request for a ten minute break to make coffee and drop a deuce, but the trivia masters rejected our modest proposal. So, for those of you in need, the trivia masters have two words for you (paraphrasing, of course): Fuck off.

Dear Triviamasters,

Could you give us a 10 minute break since we are not taking scoring breaks this year. Krist really needs to drop a trivia deuce.

Some team members received teabags while they were sleeping, compliments of Squishy. He really is a team player.
