Dad's Computers History

Our Team history

	Dad's Computers: The Wrath of Dad Final Standing: 5th place, 8325 points New This Year: Jim Waisbrot A top ten finish again! This was an interesting year all around. The beginning of the contest was really difficult for us but then we seemed to hit our groove and stayed around 5th place the rest of the contest. This year the Trivia stone was canceled after the first set of clues because of the weather. We had bunches of fun this year. One of the funniest moments happened during the awards ceremony when Eric accidentally broke our trophy on camera! For the parade we turned our trailer into the Star Trek Enterprise, dressed up like Star Trek characters. The weather was cold, slushy, snowy, rainy windy but we toughed it out! We came in 2nd place and won some Point Root Beer, Point Orange Soda and another inflatable point guy.
	Dad's Computers: Trivia Royale Final Standing: 6th place, 8200 points New This Year: Ian Johnson, Bill Albanito This was our third time in the top ten & we got our second 500 pointer (well, 515 pointer if you count the second time the same question was asked in the contest) Our Float fell apart on the way to the parade, but with Gary's quick thinking and tools we got it back together again before the parade started. We actually took 3rd in the parade! Adam did our Trivia Focus this year. Hear it HERE
	Dad's Computers: A Farewell to Mom's Final Standing: 9th place, 7460 points New This Year: Anthony Heaverlo, Chad Laska, Rick Kaiser This was our second time in the top ten! There really is no feeling like the one you get when you get the call from Oz saying come down to 90FM for the awards ceremony! Things ran pretty smoothly and everyone got along very well this year. We got alot of big pointers and did very well on the NTT picts this year
	Dad's Computers: Dawn of the Dad Final Standing: 7th place, 7855 points New This Year: Lily Johnson, Michelle Johnson Top Ten, baby! This was our first year in the Top 10. We got our second trophy and got to go down to 90FM to accept it. We got our first 500 pointer this year. The question was from a book that Eric Hamus read in the 4th grade. So he called his mom who quickly found the book & got us our valuable trivia points. We were once again visited by the documentary crew who wanted to take team photos. Ken Jennings, who won oodles on Jeopardy, also visited our HQ to get info for a book he is writing. Newsline 9 also came to HQ to interview the Cap'n. It was a busy weekend!
	Dad's Computers: The Return of the Dad Final Standing: 17th place, 6235 points New This Year: Jonathan Bamberg, Kenn Gardner, Rhiannon Gatton, Vanessa Castrodes, Ken Marciniak This was an amazing year for Dad's. Between the many big pointers we got this year, the documentary crew being around throughout the weekend, and then ending up in the top 20 this year! We had many, many crazy moments this year and I can't wait to see more excitement in the future for us. Patty did the Trivia focus this year and it's pretty crazy. Hear it HERE
	Dad's Computers: Version 25.0 Silver Edition Final Standing: 28th place, 5425 points New This Year: Rachael Miller, Bart Forman This was a very memorable year. Some of best moments where when we heard our name announced in 2nd & 5th places during some hours of the contest. We also won 3rd place in the parade float competition and received a case of pizzas, a Point Beer Raft, and a Point Beer Sign.
	Dad's Computers: All In The Family Feud Final Standing: 33rd place, 4970 points New This Year: Jimmy Olson, George Schreiner, Brian Halverson This year we got a trophy for being in 33rd place, since it was the 33rd year of trivia. We were all filled with excitement when we filled the 90FM room to accept our trophy. We also got 3rd place in the Trivia Parade! Our float concept was the set of Family Feud with the feuding families of The Bunkers vs. The Simpsons. It was lots of fun
	Dad's Computers: Trivia Time Warp Final Standing: 45th place, 4580 points New This Year: Kenta Bacas Hosaka, Adam Johnson, Marty Lecy, Brittany Hall This year we got 2nd place in the parade and also went one notch up from last years place. This had to been the most smooth trivia ever. Even the Captain stayed up the entire contest. We did a great job and will be back next year to rule.
	Dad's Computers: Bug B Gone Final Standing: 46th place, 5095 points New This Year: Bill Schleizer, Aaron Hamus, Laura Pino, Debbie Weis, Chris Olsen, Brittany Hall For Trivia 2000, many things became new. Hard work went into the construction of the new and improved Bibliotech (Libray). New Shelves were built and more computers were added. We won 3rd Place in the Trivia Parade and received 10 free pizzas. We lost a little ground during this year's contest and just couldn't seem to get any questions over 50 points. Funny memories include Mr. B trying to keep the phone girl on the other side occupied for as long as possible.
	Dad's Computers: Dad's Lost In Cyberspace Final Standing: 26th place, 5610 points New This Year: Matt Konrad, Dan Fraiser, Michael Best 1999 was our years of firsts. It was Patty Bamberg's first year as team captain. It was our first and hopefully only year without Dad. We participated in the Trivia Parade for the first time. This was also our first year with more than one PC on the internet. Additional team members give the team extra man power and much needed sports knowledge. We take big advantage of Core Digital Internet's service failing during the middle of night and climb over 50 places to finish our best ever. Eric remembers screaming at 8:00 am on Sunday morning for everyone to wake up because we were in 21st place at the time. Team also gets 145 points for our answer "Boop-A-Doop Bar".
	Dad's Computers Final Standing: 75th place, 4105 points New This Year: Eric Hamus, Danny Bamberg, Jeremy Mullenburg This was Eric Hamus's first year of trivia, but after playing on a team created by Mark Sawyer called "Falcon's Keep", Mark, Tabitha, and Eric switch over to Dad's Computers for the last 7 hours of the contest. Team finishes in the top 100 for the first time ever. The contest is called "On The Road" because it was the trivia stone made it's reappearance after not being part of the contest for several years.
