I need a new team for pub trivia night. (This is the most serious problem I'm prepared to troubleshoot right now. Please don't ask me about anything else.)

DM: Crysta Waldinger

Are you doing anything for Enoch's birthday?

Comments

[beautyfull]

hmm ok
i have classical music french literature tik tok dances celebrity facts and newly 5 microbiology texts worth of Science Factz so
ALmost fair intersection can u learn some math quick just in case

DM Raine/Crysta
ok but confession i cant throw myself a 30th bday bc then you'll all know i'm 30 this is truly the only chance i'll get

[rainbowfish]

God, I hope TikTok dances don't come up that often. But I think I know enough about math to get us by.

DM: Raine/Crysta
Do you want me to throw you a surprise party for your 30th birthday?

[beautyfull]

it's like modern history n very topical raine it Might

DM: Raine/Crysta
no thanks. tho actually don't count yourself safe either
also pls specify will u help me with this or did u have something else planned for knock?

[rainbowfish]

Okay, well, this is why we'd make a good team.

DM: Raine/Crysta
I didn't have anything planned. I wasn't sure he'd want to do anything and I figured he'd just say no either way if I asked. [...] I feel like he's not going to enjoy a big surprise party, but I assume you know that.

[beautyfull]

enoch also would like to be considered how do u feel about his chances here

DM: Raine/Crysta
idk i wouldn't be so sure. he's not as much of a bummer as he pretends to be and this party if u counted correctly has upwards of 9 primo spots for like, anthropological observation n fun experiments so

[rainbowfish]

Can't get behind it. I think if you have Enoch on your team you're not going to need me.

DM: Raine/Crysta
Okay, well, I'll have to take your word for that. But I know you know he can tell when I'm lying to him.

[beautyfull]

idk he's not great at vintage pop culture how often does that come up

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
so just like. don't mention it. how hard is that.

[rainbowfish]

All the time. So much.

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
Harder if you have me running insane errands.

[beautyfull]

ok good but how many nobel prize winners do u know and have u ever viewed a basketball game

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
i can do my own errands!! id mostly need a distraction as i suspect he'll be suspicious of me which as that's his eternal state

[rainbowfish]

I know a reasonable number of Nobel Prize winners and I've seen a game of basketball.

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
This is your last chance to rethink giving me this assignment. I'll do it, but you can't be mad at me for what happens.

[beautyfull]

ok the good news is you are still entirely in Consideration

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
will you Try

[rainbowfish]

It's an honor just to be nominated.

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
I'll do my best.

[beautyfull]

also do u know anyone who knows art history i think that's our one weak link rn

[DM: Raine/Crysta]
that's all i ask
but as like SOME incentive i think i might reinstate favours if u fail this let's say 2

[imaginist]

I'm excellent at math. Why aren't you trying to recruit me?

[beautyfull]

idk i kinda assumed you'd insist on a Bar Trivia Rivals situation????

[imaginist]

Oh, I'm absolutely doing that. But I can still be offended that I wasn't considered.

[beautyfull]

ok first of all this is not officially like even My team

[imaginist]

What if I was forming a bar trivia team? I think you should consider all of your options here.

[beautyfull]

i'm listening...

[imaginist]

I bring math, physics, geography, foreign languages and Nobel Prize winners. History and other sciences are subjects easily covered, given that this is a research station full of socially maladapted people. I've analysed previous sessions of bar trivia, and the topics which teams truly struggle with are: sports, modern music and art history.

[beautyfull]

strong cv. how big are these teams bc raine DOES have history n vintage media

also? extremely good to know i'm in a position of power here from having a spotify acct and infiltrating olympic village that time?

[imaginist]

It depends on how many people are willing to play, really, but typically no more than four.

Knowledge of pop culture relevant to people under the age of 21 has historically always been a weak point of the residents here.

[beautyfull]

we rly do need an art nerd (NOT spirit)

well yr in luck theyve always been my top viewer demographic
and like maybe itd be more fun anyway to have a both external (w the bar; we will win it; this will probably get old and unrewarding) competition and an in-team (loser has to buy everyone drinks)(more challenging) competition anyway?

[imaginist]

Does Zeke know anything?

Interesting proposal. Satisfying both our desire to prove our superiority and our desire to endlessly one-up each other. I'm willing to do a trial run.

[bwnedpronouncedboned]

i've never known anything
