I had 110,000 by question 30 this game. I was like "holy fuuuuck" A whole lot of it had to do with lucky guesses

Broke 100k, just barely, in my first game. Was fun, but by the midway point I was routinely having to guess.

I've only gotten on for about 5 questions at the end of the last extended play Sunday. I got one of those questions right. And that was a guess.

I'm looking forward to actually being around when a show starts. So far I haven't been.

So I'm going to attempt to get into the game that starts in 20 minutes. Do I just go to the listing of that game and eventually it'll give me a play option instead of schedule a reminder?

Man this is hard. I'm 9 for 9 so far with a skip used, but damn I can see how this is going to get tough. The sad thing is the one I skipped I had guessed correctly but didn't trust my guess.

I hit the wrong button to end my streak. Either way...Thoth is killing me.

I'm not playing tonight but yeah, it seems like the second half of the questions want to pound your brain with a sledgehammer.

I lost to Thoth because I don't know what the fuck a bodega is.

I did alright the first game...but this game I can't get out of my own way. I've now used skips on 2 questions that I had right but paniced and switched at the last second.

I ended up with 139,900 that round. Which is my high score. And if I hadn't been an idiot I would have had two of the earlier/mid round questions right too. Fuck me.

I played 2 rounds and got somewhere around 130 each time. Man does it get hard in the later questions. I only knew bodega thanks to Law & Order.

I didn't get to play in the live game, but tonight was my second time doing the extended play (30 minutes on Sunday was the first). I played for the whole 2 and 1/2 hours. The game actually paired me with the same guy I played with on Sunday, at least for the first game. I lasted until question 18 in one game before guessing wrong. I did use 3 skips, however.

I was kicking the ass of the 3 other people I was with in the 7:30 game, but then I answered zero of the questions in the last act correctly.

Am I forbidden to play the game with Americans due to me having "Canadian sessions"? Like, I clearly see people on my friend's list playing and even sent an invite to bps before the 7:30 game, but I get stuck with strangers.

I also have no idea how the head set works so I didn't use it (2 of the 3 people I was with had an icon indicating their set was plugged in, but after a round of silence they all went off). Seriously though, which way means the mic is on (green = on, I guess?)? How do you know if you're turning the volume up or down? There are absolutely no indicators on it.

I was stuck with strangers too. I did play 2 rounds with Thoth the day before...but I have no idea how grouping works.

You invite your friends to join your group in the lobby before you join a game. Though you might get lucky and get paired together like Broward and I did once.

Broward just has a magnet around him.

I've been randomly put into a group with him twice(and joined up with him a few times too)
