Question 1

What is IsoTriv?

Accepted Answer

At IsoTriv, we run the best trivia nights in venues across Brisbane and Melbourne.  We write clever, interesting and funny questions that people from all walks of life will appreciate.  The fact that we run hundreds of nights each year means we are always testing and refining what the best kind of question is. We also run fantastic corporate and private trivia nights for  businesses, using our 10 years of experience to run smooth, seamless and enjoyable sessions.

Question 2

Why are you called IsoTriv?

Accepted Answer

Our founder Aimon Clark ran three venues under the name ‘Man vs Bear Trivia’ in 2020 when the pandemic hit. He didn’t like the name ‘Man vs Bear’ because people found it confusing and there  was a new Animal Planet tv show with the same name which had just premiered and he was mistakenly copping a lot of negative feedback about it. In March 2020 he started a Facebook page called ‘Isolation Trivia - Livestreamed for Lockdown’ and ran a trivia stream several times a week. The page took off and pretty soon we were getting tens of thousands of viewers weekly. As we came out of lockdown the Isolation Trivia name had a great following but was  starting to sound a bit confusing, so we shortened it to IsoTriv – which could be read as ‘In Search Of Trivia’. People still find it confusing.

Question 3

How do I play?

Accepted Answer

Our trivia is free to play! Just come along to one of our trivia nights,(https://www.isotriv.com/trivia/night-schedule) grab an answer sheet and a pen, and give it a crack! Every week there’ll be a new set of questions and new prizes to be won.

Question 4

Where do I play?

Accepted Answer

We run trivia at venues all across Brisbane, with two in Melbourne. Our venues vary, from breweries to pubs to restaurants – there’s bound to be a venue (https://www.isotriv.com/trivia/night-schedule)that’s perfect for you.

Question 5

How long does trivia run for?

Accepted Answer

Each week, we have a new set of 40 questions, with a special bonus round. Depending on the venue, the questions are organised into two or three rounds, and each night runs for around an hour and a half.

Question 6

Does your trivia have screens?

Accepted Answer

Some venues have screens and some are delivered verbally without visuals. Send us a message (https://www.isotriv.com/contact)if you would like to know which is which!

Question 7

Do I need to bring a team?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! Plenty of our players play on their own. Our trivia is meant to be a good time, not stressful - come along and give it a crack, you’ll have a great time!

Question 8

Are there prizes to be won?

Accepted Answer

Of course! Each venue offers different prizes. Usually, there are venue vouchers for the top scorers, and free drinks or chippies for the winners of the bonus round. At IsoTriv, we don’t play for cash – it tends to suck all the fun out of the room and attract the wrong kind of player.

Question 9

How do you write your questions?

Accepted Answer

Aimon writes all of our questions, drawing from a wide range of topics – pop culture, current events, or whatever seems interesting. Usually,  he will sit at his computer for seven hours researching until he hits a fugue state where the greatest trivia questions of all time start to pop out. After this there is a series of testing them and working on the  wording to make sure that they are watertight and bring joy.
