Scoring tossups

Once you have started a game, you should see the question viewer, event viewer, and scoreboard. The question viewer will show the current tossup and the bonus that will be read for that cycle if the tossup is converted.

Scoring a buzz

To score a tossup:

1. Click on the word the player buzzed in on. A menu should appear.
   • If the player buzzed in after the question was over, click on the block (■).
2. Find the player and hover over their name. Players are grouped by team.
3. Click on "Correct" or "Wrong".
   • The reader will figure out how many points the buzz is worth. If a correct buzz is before a power mark, it'll be given 15 points. If a wrong buzz is at the end of the question, it'll be given 0 points, even if it's the first buzz.
   • The reader currently only recognizes (*) as a power mark, and it only supports 15-point powers.

Undo scoring

If you wish to undo your action, you can do one of the following:

• Click on the same word, and click on the same judgment (Correct/Wrong). It will clear that player's buzz.
• Click on the same word, and click on the other judgment (Wrong for Correct, and vice versa). It will switch to that judgment.

Dead tossup

If the tossup goes dead, click on the "Next" button to go to the next question.

Notes

Correct buzzes will have a green-blue background, while incorrect buzzes will have a red background. If two players buzz in on the same word, the background will be gray, and the word will be double underlined.

Incorrect buzzes cannot appear after a correct buzz, and there can only be one correct buzz. If a buzz is judged as correct, the application will clear all incorrect buzzes after it, and the application will clear the other correct buzz.
