I forgot to mention this the first time, but it would probably be considered uncool for people to tell everyone they know "hey, Quizo at the Dark Horse is giving away big prizes tonight," since
a) that means it will be harder for teams who've come for the last two years to get seats,
and
b) that sort of thing will bring out serious trivia nerds and make it harder for teams who've come for the last two years to WIN said big prizes, which is kind of the point.
This would then lead to a scenario whereby a team full of people I've never seen before shows up and I ask them how they found their way to our little game and they say, "oh, [random person from regular Quizo team] told us you were giving away a hundy-stick for first prize tonight," then when they win I have to say something humiliating like, "okay, who brought the asshole?" and then when you cower under your barstool in shame I point out anyway that it was, in fact, YOU who brought the asshole.
Let's avoid that. Keep the big money under your hat - on the "down low," as the kids say. Loose lips sink ships, and whatnot.
