Action Trivia-- 6 points apiece, after having long stood at 5. In theory, 3 points are awarded based on demonstration of trivia knowledge, and 3 are awared awarded based on creativity, enthusiasm, props, costumes, nudity, etc. , but in practice, the scoring of these tends to be very flexible and allow a lot of leeway for the main scoring criterion simply to be "how much did this entertain the running team?" A 7 was awared awarded to Dan Bahls for one performance in May 2004 before being reduced to a 6 by [[Dave Letzler '06]] in an attempt to avoid a messy precedent.

42:00 AM challenge-- Point values vary depending on circumstance. The top score has typically been in the 3-point range.(Many recent contests have not included a 2:00 AM challenge at all.)
