Trivia Tuesday is a weekly feature run by /u/bakonydraco, /u/DampFrijoles, /u/Davidellias, and /u/iamnotacola. Each week there will be five questions ranging from questions most everyone can get to questions that might stump just about everyone. Your goal is to quickly answer them to the best of your ability. You get a one point speed bonus for finishing in under 2:30.
There are definitely still ways you could cheat the system, but please do not. This is meant to be a fun weekly feature, and we encourage you to take it at face value and answer the questions without assistance.

The playoffs have arrived!

Six others got every question right, but not in time for the time bonus.
Playoff
255 users qualified for the individual playoff, with the top 16 earning a first-round bye and an automatic berth in next week’s semifinals. Here are the top 16 users:
The remaining 239 users will be competing for 47 spots in the semifinal based on performance in this week alone. Those 47 and the top 16 will be joined in next week’s semifinal by a single “Cinderella Bid” user who is this week’s top-scoring individual who missed qualifying for the playoffs.
Friendly reminder: only users who competed in at least three weeks this season are eligible for the Cinderella bid.

The top 36 teams in the regular season placed into the Premier Tier playoff. The top six teams lead quarterfinal pods that are named after a famous personality from their history.
