WhatTrivia : Rules of the Game

How it Works

Four rounds of five questions - you get one song to answer each question, bring your answer sheet up to the WhatTrivia team to be scored before the song ends.
One halftime, one third quarter bonus, and one final question - These questions are more involved and will vary in value.
You don't lose points except... - You don't lose the points you wager during any of the rounds except the final round.
Even the best can lose - In the final round, you can wager up to the amount of points you've earned so far. But be warned: you stand to lose those points on an incorrect answer.
The smartest drunks are determined - Prizes usually include a gift certificate, but the gift, amount, and payout are up to the establishment.

Teams of Eight - Find the smartest friends you have, or hire someone to help you. It doesn't matter who they are, if you call them you're team, we won't judge you. You're more than welcome to play by yourself, just be sure your table has no more than 8 people.
No Cheaters! - There are no lifelines. We are not Regis Phibin. Absolutely no cell phones, no internet enabled devices, no laptops with Encarta '97, no wicked smart uncle who isn't included on your team, can help you with the answers. Watch out, people get competitive and aren't afraid to tell on you.
Don't be a JackA$$ - Having fun is allowed, being obnoxious is not. Yell out an answer when a question is asked, right or wrong, and feel the wrath…
We're smarter than you - When we ask a question, we've researched it. The answer we have is the correct answer. Don't think so? Take it up with us after, because during the game, we're not going to fight with you.
