Discord Trivia Night Topic Ideas

I might have all the categories ready for our next event but I'll try to work history into a trivia event soon.

That’ll be nice. I hope I’ll be paying attention to when it’s out. I could help add some questions if youd like?

This is a round idea that comes from the NFL trivia I play on Wednesdays, and I was reminded of it from your Division Showdown round. 20 questions where the answers are the same four players for each one, and the question relates to something they did/didn't do which the others didn't. 

For example, a round where the answers are all 

1. Emmitt Smith
2. LaDainian Tomlinson 
3. Adrian Peterson
4. Walter Payton

One of the questions would be "Which one won multiple Super Bowls?" and the answer would be Emmitt Smith, another "Who holds the single-season TD record?," which would be LT, etc.

a certain cards' first overall (excluding powerups) for example

What was Marquise Brown's first non-powerup card overall?

A. 82

B. 77

C. 81

D. 79

Answer: C

There are two types of questions I would to see in Trivia.  One is a round about the TV Show "Monk." It was a TV Show in the early 2000s and I would love to test my knowledge of my favorite show.  The second one is a round about NHL records

I actually really like this one, it tests you about players' career and what they have done

I like this idea but Walter Payton also won  a super bowl.

Player stats- for example this player had x amount of TDs in his career/so far in his career and there are 4 choices. Stuff like that would be cool

Congrats on having your idea chosen for last night’s game

LMAOOOOO, I had Shaun Alexander there first and thought "He's been to one but never won" and then realized I couldn't do the LT question if I still had Alexander in there, so I changed players without changing the first question. However, that does give me an idea to fix it...

I'm thinking a player team history type question. Given the teams he has played for, you have to figure out the player. 

I saw TO before, so I'll use him as an example:

49ers - Eagles - Cowboys - Bills - Bengals 

*Seahawks doesnt count because he never played a game for them.

If no one can get it, a hint could include the college he played for. Or you could expand it to include the college.

What was the opening song in Madden 20?

-Rocket Fuel (DJ Shadow)

-Move the Chains (Beau Young Prince)

-Big Numbers  (Sage the Gemini)

-Madden 20  (Snoop Dog)

Answer: Big Numbers (Sage the Gemini)

The first time we played Trivia, we had a category that listed a player's team history and you had to guess which of the 4 listed players it was. It seemed to go well and we will definitely do it again. I think that's similar to what you are proposing?
