Writing a trivia question is a lot like writing a joke. You need a solid setup, and the answer should punch home that little pang of joy in the back of your head that comes with racking your mind for the seemingly impossible.

As a trivia host, that's your job. To deliver tiny explosions of endorphins that come along with answering a question correctly.

So what makes the best explosion in the minds of your trivia guests?

Let's break down the trivia question and answer even further:

1. The question has to include enough information to elicit a single possible response.
2. The deeper the dive into your niche, the higher the satisfaction of figuring it out.
3. If your answer is too esoteric, you risk that no members of your audience will be able to come up with the correct response. 

I would say the most common mistake a trivia writer messes up when creating their weekly games is not accurately considering their audience.

Ask yourself these questions before you even begin writing down any trivia facts, at all:

1. What age range of guests will be coming to this event?
2. What do these people have in common? Example: This could be a company party for everyone that works at a grocery store. Perhaps categories regarding the price of goods could be fun for them, specifically.
3. Where will this event take place? If it's going to be at a restaurant with food being served, some culinary categories may be in order. If it will be located at a community center with a hockey rink in it, maybe some hockey trivia would be in order. 
   
4. Is the audience going to be all ages? If the entire crowd will be adults, you could have more freedom with adult themed categories. 
5. Do you want the event to end up with music and dancing? You can incorporate music trivia categories to transition easier into the DJ part of the evening. 
   
6. How long do you want the event to last? Rapid fire questions may only take up a few minutes, where riddles or video clues may take several minutes each.
