Triviawhack 

When playing pub trivia or pub quiz, a triviawhack is when only one person on a team knows the answer to a particular question, and that answer turns out to be correct. Triviawhacks (or t-whacks) are an indicator of a person's contribution to the team, since without the particular person, the team's aggregate score would be lower by the number of t-whacks they had.

Coined by a group of trivia afficianados in the Southernmost city of the US, Key West Florida.
Fred made the difference in our victory tonight with two triviawhacks. He was the only one on our team who knew that "The Big Sleep" was based on a book by Raymond Chandler.

Trivia Crack

An app that you compete with other players on by answering random questions. Basically, you click a button and hope for the correct answer. In the game, you spin a wheel and what it lands on determines what category the question will be in. A random question is chosen from the category and you'll have to answer it. Once you answer, the opponent will be able to spin the wheel and answer, and so on. On an Android, if you spin the wheel, return to the main menu by clicking the back button on the Android navigation bar, then return to the game you were in, you'll be able to spin again. When you spin again, it lands on the same thing it landed on the first time you spun, no matter how many times you do this process. This might mean that the game is rigged and what category the wheel lands on is pre-determined.
Steps to be a pro in Trivia Crack:
1. Click random buttons.
2. Hope you got the right answer.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
