There's no shame in trying your very best, and falling short. This will allow you to call in NOW, during the reading of the rules you probably know already, and register your team names early. This will help us all avoid congestion and confusion during Question One. If you are using just one or two phones tonight, you are a small team, regardless of how many humans on your team. In this case, size really doesn' t matter.
Large teams have three or more.
Small teams can dial ANY of the eight numbers, but big teams may NOT call the small team lines. Feel free to call one of the basic eight numbers now, to announce your existence. We will read a question over the air, which will be followed all but immediately by some peppy tune, usually a Top 40 classic. You will have the duration of the song to call us, using some foolish and obtuse team name. You will earn one point for correctly answering the question, and a second for identifying both the song's title and artist.
