House rules
- Up to 8 players per room.
- A surprise mix of formats. Most questions use typed answers, with multiple choice mixed in. Everyone gets the same format. Type a recognized alternative or a close spelling; short answers and exact numbers need precision. Any numeric tolerance is stated on that question.
- Correct = 100 points, plus a speed bonus: +10 within 5 seconds, +5 within 10, +0 after that.
- Wrong, pass or timeout = 0. Untimed rooms have no clock and no speed bonus.
- Bold Answer (Strategy, once per match): +50 extra when correct, −50 when wrong. Passes and timeouts remain zero; activating consumes the token.
- 15 seconds to answer. All answers lock on submission. After each reveal, everyone presses Next before the room moves on; there is no automatic advance. Expect roughly 2 minutes for five questions or 4 for ten, plus any time spent reviewing answers.
