▶ THE FORMAT

Four rounds.
All of them at sea.

WAIT, FLOATING?

Yes. The Bored Meetings are floating boards: repurposed windsurf boards with a table and shade, out on the water. That’s where we play.

01
Everyone reveals at once

Answers go up together. No peeking, no late edits, no Googling.

02
2.5 hours, with proper breaks

From first question to final outrage, with time for food, refills and meeting whoever your friends brought along.

03
An early Halloween mood

Costumes are welcome, never required. Swim suits are tolerated.

04
It will get wet

The tables float and so, eventually, do you. Dress for the sea and keep your phone somewhere dry.

▶ COME AS YOU ARE

Bring your team.
Or we’ll build you one.

Teams play in groups of four or five. Come with old friends or come on your own. We’ll make the introductions, and you may leave with new ones.

4–5players per team

Coming together? One captain signs up the full team and adds every player’s name.

Coming solo? We’ll handle the introductions and place you with a team.

Just visiting? You’re in. Brainwave is open to everyone: residents, visitors and hotel guests alike.

▶ WHAT’S INCLUDED

What you get
on the day.

PRICE COMING SOON

It will be posted here when sign-ups open.

01
Finger food

Included for everyone. The menu is still being decided.

02
Ice, kept coming

Loaded before play and topped up as needed.

03
A crew keeping things flowing

Opening, pouring, clearing and keeping things cold.

04
Floating tables + shade

Repurposed windsurf boards with a table and shade, out on the water before the first question.

05
Bring your own

Your favorite beverages are welcome. No corkage, no eyebrow.

06
Champions’ bragging rights

Infinite in spirit. Valid until somebody wins the next one.

▶ THE ONLY PRIZE THAT MATTERS

Win the quiz.
Own the group chat.

First place leaves with bragging rights loud enough to cross the bay. Retell the final-round comeback often, correct your friends freely, and sign every message “Brainwave champions” until the next quiz. The reigning champions have had long enough.

Coming soon.

The list for Saturday 24 October opens on this page soon. The group chat hears first; you’ll find it at brainwave.events.

▶ QUICK ANSWERS

Before you
ask the group chat.

01When can I sign up?+

Soon. The list opens on this page. Follow @brainwave.events (opens in a new tab) to hear the moment it does.

02Can I really come alone?+

Please do. That’s part of the point. We’ll introduce you to a friendly team of four or five before the first question.

03What does it cost?+

The price will be posted here when sign-ups open. It covers your seat at a floating table, ice, finger food and the crew keeping things flowing. Bring your favorite beverages.

04Where exactly are we meeting?+

At The Bored Meetings on Nautilus Beach in Somabay. We start at 2:00 PM, and the tables are out on the water.

05Do I need a costume?+

No. It’s an early Halloween, so costumes are welcome, but never required. Swim suits are tolerated. Whatever you wear, assume it’s going in the sea.

06Will I get wet?+

Almost certainly. The tables float, so the whole quiz happens on the water. Dress for the sea and leave your phone somewhere dry. You won’t be Googling anyway.

07I’m only visiting. Can I join?+

Yes. Brainwave is open to everyone: residents, visitors and hotel guests alike. If you’re around the bay that Saturday, you’re invited.

08Who’s behind this?+

Brainwave is a self-organized community quiz, made by people around the bay, with our friends at The Bored Meetings hosting us on the water. It is not an official Somabay event. Just neighbours and guests making a very good afternoon together.

09When’s the next one?+

Already planning ahead? Good. The full calendar of upcoming Brainwave events lives at brainwave.events (opens in a new tab).
