The world is shifting towards virtual events, thanks to the pandemic. Events like a birthday party have now gone virtual. Visiting your favourite bar for trivia night is no more an option, thanks to COVID-19 still lurking around the corner. One trend that has taken over during the lockdown is trivia via the wonders of modern technology. Friends and family have used technology to keep each other entertained, and also, engage each other in some friendly competition.

We at Fat City Entertainment have come up with an easy and a simple way of conducting a trivia party.
Triv101, which is our newest trivia game, is also perfect for video conferences. Here is a list of some awesome ideas for a starting number that fits your theme, while also having a great time!

Picture
  1. Birthday Party - Is it grandma’s 65th birthday? How about changing the target point to 65 to celebrate her birthday? You could also ask questions that celebrate the year she was born in as well, which should be fun! It needn’t be Grandma’s birthday. You can also celebrate your friend’s or anyone else’s birthday and have a great birthday bash as well!
  2. Sports Milestone - This is a bit of a different yet unique idea. Perhaps, you might be close to someone who must have recently hit a milestone in the sport that they are proficient in. Or better, you can have a fan club trivia night celebrating your sports icon or team. You can change the points to the milestone hit and have a quiz that celebrates the moment that led up to the milestone. You can also change the score to celebrate the milestone. Or, if you’re hockey fans, you can use Wayne Gretzky’s jersey number 99 under "Starting Points" for a fun hockey themed event!
  3. Movies - For movie fans out there, don’t worry, we got you covered. You could call your friends and family who are fans of a particular actor or a particular movie series (say the Avengers) and have an awesome trivia party related to those. You could change the score to something like an iconic line from the movie. For instance, you can use the number 47 from Star Trek for a Star Trek themed party!
  4. TV Shows - There are lots of notable TV shows that have a dedicated fan club for multiple reasons. Certain shows have numbers on them or it might be reaching a milestone episode number which can then be celebrated via trivia. For example, Brooklyn Nine-Nine has the number ‘99’ in it which can be the point target for the trivia party. Or you could perhaps focus on a particular character in any TV show.
  5. History - This particular category should appeal to a lot of history buffs as many important events have occurred over the course of time. You could pick out a particular year which might be really interesting and use that as the starting number. You could use the number of presidents throughout history, which is 45, as the starting number. 
  6. Science - There’s no doubt that science is one of the most popular industries out there. With science at the forefront of almost everything, there was bound to be some science based trivia at some point. There are many ways to go about this. You could go down the physics way, where the starting number could be something related to a particular year an equation was formed (e=mc^2 anyone?) or you could go down the chemistry route and choose an atomic number, say 92 which is uranium, as the starting number. The possibilities are endless thanks to the ever growing world of science.
  7. Geography - There are plenty of countries in the world and for teachers, this might be a brilliant idea that ensures the students remember certain countries as well. You can use the starting number as 195 since there are a total of 195 countries in the world. If countries aren’t your thing, you can also use the starting number as the number of states or districts in a country. This is highly recommended for schools as this is a fun way to remember important details of a particular place!
  8. Kids Party - If you are organising your child’s birthday party, trivia is a fun way to get them away from their screens and also a way to get them to earn some prizes, since it is a kids party after all. The Disney universe is probably one of the biggest universes out there that almost all kids are familiar with. Some examples are to use the starting number as the number of Disney princesses (which is 12 if you exclude their friends) or if that isn’t their thing, there are always things like Star Wars (number of characters, which is roughly in the neighborhood of 100), Marvel (a memorable comic edition like the X-Men #141-142), etc. If you have a tween who watches the more teen-tween oriented Disney shows, you can use the shows’ episodes or seasons, which should be a great thing. Or, you can also use the character’s birthday as a starting number.
  9. Technology - There are always going to be people who love tech dearly and know basically everything there is to know in the field of tech. One smart way is to use the number of tech companies or the year a particular tech company was founded as the starting number. For example, you could use the number of Apple products (which is more than 25) as the number for the Apple fanboys out there. Not only that, there are also other ways, like a mobile processor number or a PC processor number as well. There are multiple numbers in the field of tech which can certainly be used as a starting number, much like science does.

There you have it! These are some of the best ways to change the number of Triv101 to whatever you like and it also ensures that the participants have a great time, especially during these distressing times where people are being isolated from their loved ones. Triv101 can also be used in classrooms to ensure that students remember certain details in a fun and interesting manner, which kids certainly love! For people who want more of a challenge, there is also an infinite mode. It makes the game more difficult by removing the chosen question number from the board each turn. Hopefully, these ideas help you have an amazing Trivia party!
