Congrats on a great feat, Jeff. To the rest of you: beat this record!
Here it is - my world record run at “Most Trivial Pursuit 90’s Edition ‘Wired’ Questions Answered Out a Shuffled Deck in 60 Seconds.”
We did several attempts before we got one I was happy with, but I decided to put them all online anyway. If you just want to see the record setting 15-question run you can go the record’s home on the Universal Record Database site or skip to about 4:20 in the video above.
I’m still bummed I didn’t get to do this live at last week’s fundraising URDB live show, so here’s what I’m going to do. If someone beats my record in the next 90 days, I will donate $100 to the charity of their choice ($50 will come from me, $50 will come from my employers’ generous matching gift policy). I’m a big nerd but I’m by no means the biggest, and I’m sure someone else watching this knew most of those answers. The URDB website has a FAQ that explains exactly how to submit your record. If you’re somehow still interested in reading more, I explained my strategy in the description on Vimeo. Good luck!
Thanks again to everyone that helped, especially Amir who set a simultaneous record for “Most Trivial Pursuit 90’s Edition ‘Wired’ Questions Asked Out a Shuffled Deck in 60 Seconds.”
