SCREW IT!

THE BETTING QUIZ

A card pops up on your desk screen: "How many capital cities can you name in 30 seconds?"

Juno says 5. Alex says 7. You say 12, because you panicked.

Anyone can keep raising the number. Or someone slams the red button, it yells SİKTİR! at full volume, and whoever made the last claim has to walk up to the stage mic and actually do it, with 30 seconds on the clock and the whole lobby listening.

There's nothing to type and nothing to pick from. You talk, and everyone else decides if it counts.

KNOW WHEN TO STOP

Push the number too far and you're the one on stage. Hit the button too early and your friend names 13 capitals with time to spare. Side bets let you back or bet against whoever's at the mic, and sabotage cards let you make their life harder.

MR. STATIC, YOUR HOST

Mr. Static has a CRT for a head and a lot of opinions about your performance. He runs the show from his podium, and the worse a round goes, the better his mood gets.

IF YOU FAIL, YOU WEAR IT

Miss your claim and you carry a penalty for the next couple of rounds: a helium voice, a giant head, a pixelated face, plus a few we'd rather not spoil. You keep playing like that.

CHALLENGE TIME

Every few rounds the cards go away and the stage turns into an arcade. Everyone plays at once: shoot hoops, whack whatever pops out of the holes, grab cash out of the air, and deal with whatever the producers came up with this week.
