The Basics

CNP Trivia is split into four rounds of play.
 
Each of the four rounds consists of ten questions (worth 1 or 2 points), and one bonus question (worth 5 points).

Three questions in each round will be multiple choice.

  • ROUND 1: Questions are worth one point each. 15 points maximum.
  • ROUND 2: Questions are worth two points each. 25 points maximum.
  • ROUND 3: Puzzle Round – 15 points maximum.
  • ROUND 4: Questions are worth one point each (with an added bonus)

(Bonus) After answering questions 1-10, guess how many your team answered correctly. If you are correct, receive double your points for the round. – 25 points maximum for Round 4.

Maximum Possible Score after all four rounds of play = 80 points

Your assumptions are your windows in the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in.

Tie Breakers

In the event of a tie, whichever team has answered the most bonus questions correctly, will be declared winner.

If a second tie breaker is needed, the team who has correctly answered the most question #1’s, will be declared winner.

If needed, we will proceed through the questions in numerical order, until a winner is determined.
