The rules…
TEAMS
There should always be four teams with a minimum of two players per team and a maximum of five
Teams should be decided by using the team generator.
Team 1 always goes first, followed by teams 2, 3, and then 4
All teams must come up with their own team name, based around the theme of the chosen Luck Of The Draw quiz
POINTS
Each team starts with 100 points
The quizmaster's favourite team name shall see said team rewarded with five bonus points to start!
THE GAME
There are forty questions, with each team taking it in turns to choose a question to play (so each team will choose ten questions)
Each team bets a chosen number of their points on a question, before knowing what the question is.
If they answer correctly, the amount bet is added to their score, but if they answer incorrectly, the points are taken away!
e.g. Team 1 have 100 points. They bet 10 points on question 10. If they answer correctly, their score will be 110 but if they answer incorrectly, their score will drop to to 90.
Each team (unless stated otherwise in the question) has one minute to answer the question
No team may gamble all their points until the last round.
All forty questions must be played, so teams must budget their points so that they have at least 1 point to play with for each round
The scores will be read out at the end of rounds 3, 6 and 9
The team with the most points at the end wins!
ADDITIONAL
The quizmaster is always correct and any abuse aimed at the quizmaster or other contestants can lead to docking of points at the quizmaster's discretion!
