A Few Words About Us

ADVANCES
April 18
April is a big month for Flagship Trivia. This month, we celebrate 10 years! We started writing trivia in April of 2016. I will say that my very first game was less than ideal. I’m surprised I wasn’t tarred and feathered after. But I learned from my mistakes, and I believe my games now are better than they were. It has been a great 10 years. I really enjoy all our teams. You mean so much to us. Every time I think maybe it’s time to retire, I can’t imagine life without my trivia teams.
Here are the advance questions and answers for this week. The questions: Lateral Epicondylitis is a condition commonly known by what name? Which bird is the national bird of Finland? What is the name of the son of the witch Sycorax? And the unrelated answers: Gerald Ford, Lusitania, Burkina Faso.
Have a great week! We’ll see you for some more trivia, maybe even another 10 years!
Edit: I didn't realize there were 4 advance questions. I had removed one of them, but it made it to the list. Facebook wouldn't allow me to edit the post, so I had to delete the original post and re-post.

High Scoring Teams, So Far
We were talking the other night and it made me worry that maybe the games this year were more difficult and there may not be enough teams for a ToC this year. I checked and here is the list for the teams with the highest average (60 and above) who have played more than 2 games this year. I was pleased to find there were 19 teams. It is still very early in the year, so it isn't too late. If your team isn't listed and you want to know your team's average thus far, send me an email at chuck@flagshiptrivia.com.
Here is the list in alphabetical order:

TWO THINGS
March 11
I feel I need to bring up a couple of issues. One was dealt with a couple of years ago and now is coming back. The other is a clarification.
First, we ask you not to bring pages of research with you. When we used to announce the theme round in advance, teams would print out the internet and bring it with them. We don't announce the theme round in advance any longer to make it more fair to all the teams. So I thought this problem had gone away. We do give you the advance questions over the weekend ahead. I know that some people like to research the questions in advance of the weekly game. But I've heard that some teams seem to be taking this to the extreme. Please don't bring excess printouts of research with you to the game. If it continues to be a problem, I will have to discontinue posting the advance questions on the weekend and then everyone will get them at the same time, when the teams come in for the game. I have always strived to make this a fair and fun game for everyone. If a team is bringing a pile of papers with them as resources, it gives the impression that the team may have other resources (state capitals, periodic table of elements, list of presidents, etc.). If you want to look up the advance questions at home, you shouldn't have more than one page.
Second, I know that some trivia companies allow the last-place team to choose the next week's theme round. Here are a couple of things that are different from the way we do it. First, I have six locations. That means there would be six teams that finish last. I can't have 6 theme rounds. Also, I don't announce the theme rounds in advance. As I said above, when I did, some teams would conduct reams of research. Also, I found that by announcing the theme round in advance, it put teams that came in to have dinner and decide to play trivia. They won't have had the chance to do research which puts them at a disadvantage.
Please remember the number one goal of Flagship Trivia is that everyone have fun! Have fun, folks!
