Talkpocalypse

Fortnight 29, Day 2. We go a bit long on a couple of the questions but there was a lot going on. Trevor gets very close on an answer and Marc talks himself out of a different answer. We play each other in the Benchwarmers private league today, see who prevails!

Fortnight 29, Day 1. We are back! Thanks to the 8 brave souls who joined our private group. Marc ends up just simply knowing most of the answers today while Trevor susses most of them out. Question 5 had us both fairly flummoxed but one of us figures it out while the other gives a joke answer.

For Fortnight 29, we will have a private division. The group name is Talkpocalypse and the password is ZachEdey. Come take us on and know better than to assign Marc more than 0 points for cycling and Trevor 0 points for snooker, darts, sumo or whatever other youtube rabbit hole he has gone down.

Shane Ryan joins us to administer the meistershaft to Marc, as Trevor took it earlier so he could proctor. Will Marc not trusting his first instinct cost him? Trevor also does quite well on what turned out to be a very difficult test.

Fortnight 28, Day 10. Marc and Trevor go head to head in our private division, we both play perfect defense, and we have a definitive winner.

Fortnight 28, Day 9. Our second theme day of the fortnight, and it goes better for both of us than the last one. Trevor educates us about so-so American tennis players and Marc talks about Bruins legend Dave Christian. And yeah, if an English person gives you a hard time about calling it soccer, tell them they invented the term and called it soccer until the 1970s.

Fortnight 28, Day 8. Trevor gets triggered by a question but doesn't let that affect him. Marc played jarts, Trevor didn't but we both called it lawn darts. And we've both seen Hoosiers....

Fortnight 28, Day 7. Thanks to having to think a lot about Q5, Marc gives max effort regarding Q1; he also gives away more defensive secrets. Trevor struggles with his Flemish regions. We both figure Lamar was more likely to lose in an upset in a divisional.

Fortnight 28, Day 6. Solid start to the week. We discuss the prowess of Sun Wen, Marc loses another coin flip, and Trevor has more serendipity.

Fortnight 28, Day 5. Bringing week 1 to a close, Sportstradamus brings the heat on question 5. We talk about golf rules for a bit then pivot to some not so great hockey teams and The U. Question 5 flummoxed us both but we also both played someone who got it right.
