Hey there folks, we’ve got some openings for tonight’s quiz. If anyone wants to forget about the pandemic for a half hour and instead laugh with their friends, go ahead and sign up here.

Alright gang, you can now sign up for this week’s virtual quizzo here. Almost everyone who plays it once plays it again. If you haven’t played it yet, it’s fairly simple: you and your team meet with a quizmaster in Zoom. He goes through the questions, you guys discuss and your captain gives the QM the final answer. It’s kind of like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire except that there’s like 5 or 6 of you. Oh, and there’s no millions. But there is a lot of fun. Hope to see ya this week!

Wow! What a Round Two! This is what #Aprilmadness is all about. The #1 overall seed falls to the legendary Jams team that critics said was past its prime. Duane’s World and Sofa Kingdom, the two winningest teams in JGT quizzo history, in a 51-50 battle for the ages, determined on the final question. Tiger Queens, the 46th seed out of 48, advancing to the Sweet 16. The Zodiac Killer missing one question in Round One and then not missing another one. You want narratives? We got narratives. On to the Sweet 16 this week!

As I told several teams this week, I stumbled down a wormhole of awesomeness this past week. The TV was on on this past Sunday with nobody really watching it. Some awful rerun was on called “Lottery Changed My Life”. Mostly just morons talking about how they spent their lottery winnings on a car or some dull shit. Then suddenly and unexpectedly, it took a turn. A 19 year old named Jonathan Vargas won $35 million in a Powerball lottery in 2008. But unlike the other bozos who all bought cars and McMansions and other boring shit, Jonathan decided to blow his cash on something entirely different: a female wrestling league. It was a terrible investment, and an even worse product. The rap promo above was almost certainly the worst rap song ever recorded (other than pretty everything that Post Malone has ever done.) The production quality made GLOW look like Les Miserables. Vargas became a “character” in his own production: JV Rich, who in various skits regularly had the Wrestlicious girls hanging out with him at his mansion. In other words: HE DID EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE WITH THE MONEY IF I HAD WON THE LOTTERY AT AGE 19. The league lasted one year, and after that and a couple of other bad investments, JV Rich was flat broke. But who cares. In 100 years, nobody will care about a car or a mansion, but Wrestlicious is FOREVER. Shout out to JV Rich! If you want a more complete history of the league, this video is well worth 10 minutes.

Here ya go, folks! Updated scores and brackets. We’ll have a full update tmrw and analysis.

We’re back at it for another week, and we’ve got some openings for new teams to get involved. For those of you who haven’t played, this is a great way for you and your friends to hang out, have a few laughs, and play some trivia. About 80%-85% of teams that play one week come back again to play the next. Just a lot of fun, and the thing that separates this from the regular quiz is that people can play from ANYWHERE. Last week, we had players in Virginia Beach, Pittsburgh, Oregon, and even Japan. So if you want to do something fun with friends, family, or old college roommates, this is a great opportunity to do so. Hope to see ya this week!

Well folks, here they are, your brackets after Round One. Some MONSTER upsets in Round One. The three lowest seeded teams in the tourney all won.

The Nerd Region is setting up to see some instant classics in Round Two, as the legendary Jams take on the brash young upstart (and top overall seed) Boyz II Menehune. Menawhile, No I in COVID, featuring two players playing first thing in the morning live from Japan, advanced to take on Carole Baskin’s Husband.

While the Nerd Region is considered the toughest in the tourney, it was the Geek Region that put up the big scores this week. Lambda, Queefer Sutherland, and Evil Knieval all scored 43 or more to advance to the next round.

The Dork Region was about defense, but it did feature our most thrilling matchup of round one, as the Missing Heads edged the Underground Bard in a thriller, 45-44.

In the Dweeb Region, the Tiger Queens pulled off a monster upset with a 35-32 win over 19 seed FFSF. The Tuesday Night Quarantine Team knocked off the Quarantiners in another thriller, 40-39, and moves on to battle Covid’s Metamorpheses.

Teams that advance will play with Carl and I next week, but teams that do not, don’t worry…we’ll still have openings with J Michael, Chip, and Pat. The saga continues. If you’re posting about the tourney on your socials, please be sure to tag me (@johnnygoodtimes on twitter, Johnny Goodtimes Quizzo on Facebook, and @jgtquizzo on Instagram) and use the hashtag #AprilMadness.

Finally, planning on doing another quiz on Sunday night that everyone can play. I’ll have more details soon. Probably be on the facebook page. See ya soon!

Alright, some things starting to crystallize after two nights of quizzo. Congrats to the Jams, the first ever official winners in the tourney (and to the Testes Factory, the first ever official losers!). The Jams will have their work cut out for them in Round Two, as they take on the best team in the tourney, Boyz II Menehune. But Phil of the Jams is a quizzo legend and a former Quizzo Bowl champ. If you’re the Boyz, you’re not getting to face a cupcake in your first game.

Vaughn Hebron also marched past Alone Together and will now take on the Zodiac Killer. A promising matchup between two extremely experienced teams.

Lots of games on the line tonight. Below Basic tries to pull the upset over Queefer Sutherland, the Tiger Queens try to knock off an FFSF team that disappointed with only a 32, and the Tuesday Night Quizzo Club and the Quarintiners go head to head. There’s no I in COVID tries to sneak past the Meat Sweats score of 30, Not Last Place needs to score 39 to surpass Chasing Olive, and Socially Distant needs 37 to sneak past OK Doomers. Good look to all of tonight’s teams!
