The rules, step by step
- A prompt appears with one of your friends’ names in it.
- Everyone secretly types their funniest answer on their own phone.
- Then you all vote for the answer you love most. You can’t vote for your own.
- 100 points per vote, plus a bonus for winning the round.
Scoring and the fiddly bits
The subject answers as well
Whoever the prompt names writes an answer about themselves. Nothing on the ballot says which one it is.
Scoring
100 a vote, plus 200 for the round win. Two answers level at the top take 100 each.
Your own answer
It stays in the ballot and is greyed out on your phone alone. Everyone else sees an ordinary option.
Answers are capped
One answer per prompt, up to 120 characters, with runs of spaces collapsed before the ballot is built.
The reveal moves for anyone
Any player can tap on from the scoreboard, so five people never wait on one.
