Strategy trivia

Strategy trivia. One Bold Answer.

Strategy trivia adds one optional Bold Answer token per player to the standard trivia match. Activate it before locking your answer when you want to take a risk. A correct Bold Answer adds 50 points; a wrong selected answer costs 50 points. Everyone receives the same single token, with no purchased advantages.

How do I start?

  1. Choose Strategy on setup, then choose a theme and game length.
  2. Create a room and invite your friends.
  3. Activate Bold Answer on one question before submitting, or keep it unused.
  4. Review the outcome together and all press Next.

What happens if a Bold Answer is wrong?

A wrong selected Bold Answer gives a 50-point penalty. A correct Bold Answer adds 50 points to the normal correct-answer score. A pass or timeout stays at zero, even if Bold was activated.

Can I reuse or buy another Bold Answer token?

No. Activating Bold consumes the one token for that match. Token activation, use and scoring are enforced by the server; there are no purchased competitive advantages.

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.
