Selecting the Gameplay options and type.

The Strong Game includes two types of play:

• Collaborative Play Groups of players work together as a team to answer questions. This includes everyone on a single team trying to beat a minimum score, or teams of people working together to beat other teams and achieve the highest score.

• Competitive Play Everyone is on their own, and the highest point score wins.

How Game Scoring Works

Regular Scoring

To use regular scoring, turn percentage scoring off. In a regular scoring game, each correct answer is worth 10 points.

Percentage Scoring

The Percentage scoring system motivates players to work together as the higher the ratio of people agree on the correct answer, the more points they can get.

For the sake of explanation, we will use and example of 10 people playing together.

When 8 out of 10 participants get the right answer, they will get 80 points. We recommend in this type of Strong Game that individual points are turned off. So in the above case, the 2 other members of the team are not penalized for guessing wrong. Lastly, if 2 of the 10 members are correct, and the other 8 are wrong, the team will get 20 points.

So for calculating the team score over a five question game would look like the following:

1. Question Type: Trivia and 1 out of 10 were correct: 10 Points
2. Question Type: Social and 9 out of 10 were correct: 90 Points
3. Question Type: Survey No points
4. Question Type: Media and 3 out of 10 were correct: 30 Points
5. Question Type: Trivia and 10 out of 10 were correct: 100 Points

The total points for the group would be 230 points.
