Game Play

  1. Use the video below to play, pausing where it is indicated.

If two answers are similar, but the not the same and a point is up for dispute, the moderator makes the call. If you have time, an alternative is to put a question mark and park any disputed points until all of the other points are counted, and to give teams an opportunity to defend their positions.
