All great trivia nights have one thing in common: Water Cooler Trivia.
Sorry, we can't resist a little self-promotion. Trust us, this platform truly lives up to the hype.
So, what is Water Cooler Trivia? Well, the process behind the platform is simple:
You choose a custom trivia schedule, along with the trivia categories. We write the questions and grade the results.
It's all automated and asynchronous - so you can kick your feet up as the trivia host and relax.
Think of the platform as trivia on auto-pilot.
The destination? A paradise of fun and laughter.
You can hold us to that.
Anyway, on to the tips!
This isn't rocket science. Unless, of course, your trivia questions are related to aerospace and aeronautical engineering. In which case, we applaud you and wish you luck.
You're not a professional writer, and coming up with new and exciting trivia questions is much harder than it sounds.
This is where Water Cooler Trivia comes in handy. We have a team of professional writers who are experts in all-things trivia.
They really are the best in the business.
As you can imagine, with a job this fun, we had no shortage of applications.
So, if you're stuck for ideas, leave it to the professionals and check out Water Cooler Trivia.
Remember, this is a team event. So it's important that everyone feels included in the decision-making process.
This means giving everyone a say in which trivia categories to pick on our platform.
If you already know the participants well, you can choose on behalf of the group.
When trivia categories relate to the interests of the group, it generally leads to more engaged teams and a more enjoyable night for all.
But if you're not sure, allow Water Cooler Trivia to choose for you. Our trivia pros know exactly how to pique the curiosity of participants.
Did we mention they're the best in the business?
No matter how good your memory is, it's important to have a way of accurately recording scores.
Although, if your team is struggling, you could use this to your advantage.
Disclaimer: No matter how hard those aeronautical engineering questions get, we do not endorse cheating.
Anyway, you don't need anything fancy. A simple piece of paper or whiteboard will do the trick.
If you're using Water Cooler Trivia, our platform will take care of the scoring for you.
You don't need to go overboard with the prizes. A simple bottle of wine or box of chocolates should suffice.
The main thing is that everyone feels like they have a chance of winning, regardless of how much they know about the topics covered.
This is where team-play comes in handy. With more brains working on the answers, the playing field is leveled and everyone has a chance to win.
Nobody wants to see a stressed trivia host.
That's almost as bad as a headache-inducing aeronautical engineering question.
Yes, we're still running with that joke.
The point is, if you're feeling stressed, it's likely to rub off on the participants and spoil the night.
If you're using Water Cooler Trivia, the platform takes care of everything for you. All you need to do is sit back and enjoy the show.
