- Teams consist of 4 – 6 players. This is a licensed event, so players must be 19 years or older.
- Team registration fee is $600.
- Corporations, schools, organizations, etc. are permitted to register more than one team. The "Corporate 2 fer" is where teams can increase their chances of winning the title by submitting two teams of six for $1000.
- To hold your spot you must submit your team name and registration form by Friday, March 16, 2012. * The sooner the better!
- The full registration fee and completed pledge sheets must be received no later than March 24, 2012. The original monies collected must be turned in.
- Pledge sheets with names and full addresses must be turned in even if you, your team or your business pays for the registration fee. Donation receipts will be provided for donations over $10 only if the name and complete mailing address are provided.
- There are 10 "rounds" of questions. Past categories have included traditional trivia like science and literature and some not-so-traditional trivia, like "Tim Horton locations of Greater Moncton."
- Teams will sit together and answer trivia questions collectively. Each team's performance will be scored by a panel of judges and a referee will be on hand to ensure a clean, fair fight.
- Absolutely no cheating. Any below the belt attempts at corroboration of questions will result in the immediate public humiliation of the team!
- Absolutely no substitutions during the battle. This isn't basketball, the players listed on the registration form will be the only ones allowed to participate for the entire bout.
- At the start of bout, teams will be permitted to purchase 1 for $15 or a maximum of 3 bribes for $30 from the judges. These bribes can be used at any point throughout the game and will guarantee that 1 point is added to your score.
- In the event of a tie in points at the end of 10 rounds, the tied teams will compete in a one-on-one lightning round of questions and answers.
- Team uniforms and costumes are permitted and encouraged!
- This is not a spectator event. Due to fire code capacity regulations, spectators 19 years and older will only be allowed if there is room. Admission is a $5 donation to YMCA Community Development at the door. Please note: Rules #7 & #8 apply to spectators too!
- We will provide appetizers for teams and for your convenience there will be a cash bar.
- Have a blast!
