• The questions will be read by Fr. Tim at the beginning of each round. You can write down the questions using the scrap paper on the table. You will have 3 minutes to answer the questions after the questions are removed from the screen. Answer sheets will then be collected.

• All answers MUST BE COMPLETE AND WRITTEN LEGIBLY. (“Indianapolis Indians”- not “Indians”) (“Pope Pius XII”-not “Pope Pius”)

• CELL PHONE USAGE and TEXTING are NOT PERMITTED during a round. If you need to make or receive a phone call/text, you must do so in the hallway. Please note that you will not be permitted to return to your table until the end of the competition for that round. If any of our volunteers see you using your phone during a round your TEAM will lose ALL points for THAT round. No exceptions.

• Please refrain from moving around the room or using the restroom during rounds. If you leave the room to use the restroom you cannot return until answer sheets are turned in for that round. . There will be two 10-minute breaks. One at the end of round 4 and the other at the end of round 8.

• For some of the rounds, an “EXPERT” will be auctioned prior to the start of the round. Bidding will last no more than 2 minutes. The highest bidder wins. The expert will sit with the winning team/table for the entire round. CREDIT CARDS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR PAYMENT OF AN EXPERT!

• An “Expert” is allowed to participate at a Trivia Night table for the evening. However, he/she will only be able to assist the table who bid the highest for the expert and cannot return to their own table until the beginning of the next round.

• Mulligans (a sticker) are available at the RAFFLE TABLE. The cost for the MULLIGANS is $20 for 8 Mulligans. Payments can be made by cash, check and CREDIT CARDS. When you choose to use a MULLIGAN, you must designate on the answer sheet which question it will be used for by placing the sticker on that specific answer line. That answer will automatically be marked correct. Only one Mulligan can be used per round. There are only 8 Mulligans per team so choose wisely.
