12 multiple choice questions
You are eliminated as soon as you miss one
Cash prizes from $2000-$10000
Plays at 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM Central time almost daily like a live game show
Usually between 500,000 and 1M players

I've never gotten past question 6.

How long do you have to answer each question? Or are you eliminated if you don’t answer fast enough?

You have five seconds. Yes, you are eliminated if you don't answer within that time.

I think it's 10 seconds from when they start reading the question, so rapid fire. Your answer is locked in as soon as you press it so you can't change it.

Top score for me is 8

My brother in law told me about it. I'm usually really good at trivia. I played it for the first time today. I lost on the fourth question about which one is the copying device. Took too long to think. Kind of embarrassing. I'll be trying it each day going forward.

NYE it was $18k, but the game glitched out so I'm not sure if anyone actually won. It was hard to watch the host try to pull out of that tailspin, but he handled it like a champ

Didn't know that. I've only been playing for about a week. $10k is the highest I've seen.

Ive won twice, played about 30 times. I could buy a "nice" dinner at most low end chain restaurants.

Today I got to question 10 or 11 today. I selected Von Miller, answer was Mike Trout.

The payout on NYE ended up being like 30 bucks. A crap ton of people won.

I didn't realize they actually finished it. Everyone at my party just watched Scott flail around for ten minutes on the first two questions before turning it off. We were never able to enter an answer

I play with the sound muted. The hosts are aggravating.

I enjoy it for what it is, but the app SUCKS. Very laggy. Super annoying at times.

I think they're more concerned with compiling us than they are about trivia.

Use to play it often. Sounds hipsterish but I quit when so many people started playing. Servers became super unstable and the pot is trash now due to the amount of winners. Glad to see it’s getting more popular, might check it out again.

If you sign up I would appreciate the extra life so make sure you type in CapperVin as the person who invited you to the game
