Choose the board and prepare the private answer key
Copy one complete five-category board, or select a shorter round using the values below. Keep the answer key private while players use the shared display.
- Use Standard format: five categories with five clues each, worth 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 points. Copy the category, clue, accepted answer and explanation into the creator. The button does not import this article.
- Read every selected clue and check the intended answer before the event. Keep this answer page on the host screen and share only the player display.
- Let a team choose its captain, reader and note-taker. Rotate roles by agreement; invite optional discussion without adding hidden scoring rules.
A short-round run sheet
Prepare the board and joining before the timed activity. For ten clues use 100 and 200 from each category; for fifteen add 300. Values 400 and 500 become reserves.
- Minutes 0-2: explain the clue, buzz, answer and reveal loop using an unscored example: 2 + 3, answer 5.
- Minutes 2-10: select the planned ten or fifteen clues; if time is tight, announce the final two before opening them.
- Minutes 10-12: finish the current clue, report scores and offer one optional explanation. Any response window is kept by the host and announced equally.
- This is a group-hosted board. Solo recall remains available through the separate Practice page. No survey scores or special countdown mode are implied.

Run the whole response and reveal loop
Create the board manually, save it and practice one clue with the actual devices before inviting the group.
- In a spoken-answer live room, the participant buzzes in through Quiz Champ, then answers aloud. In typed mode, the first buzzer submits a typed response before the host can reveal and judge it. Meeting chat does not register an in-game response.
- In the current host dashboard, a correct response adds the tile value and an incorrect response adds zero. Announce any manually adjusted house scoring separately. Do not change the rule after seeing an answer.
- For a shorter event, select the first two or three values from each category and keep unused clues as reserves. Any time window in this guide is kept by the host, not a claimed automatic countdown.
- Finish with shared winners or the numerical tie-break guide. That closest-answer comparison is run separately from normal Quiz Champ scoring.
