FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - IN PERSON SHOWS
How does it all work?
Basically, we provide everything from the host, to the quiz, to the pens and paper required to put on a great trivia night.
When you say "120 minutes", how does that break down?
In general, the first half takes 45-50 minutes, followed by a 10 minute break (during which first half scores are tallied and displayed). The second half takes another 45-50, after which final scores are tallied and winners are announced.
Do you provide audio visual equipment?
We work with our clients and the venues to ensure everyone will have a pleasant audio-visual experience. If the venue isn’t already equipped with the necessary projectors, televisions, or speakers, we can provide it, to some degree.
Do you provide prizes for winners?
Prizes, raffles, and other draws are the responsibility of the organizers. We will gladly help draw the raffles at the event.
Is there a maximum number of players?
The is no limit to how many people can play. BUT there can be a surcharge if you have over 100 players because the host will need assistance marking (or else the event will take a really long time). To avoid this, you can always discuss the “swapping” method of marking, which speeds up the process.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - VIRTUAL SHOWS
How do the virtual shows work?
Mack Flash operates via their website for virtual shows. A private, unlisted link is prepared, which you can share with your participants. They can use that link to watch the live quiz show on whatever device they decide (Smart TV, computer, laptop, their smartphone, etc.)
Is there a maximum number of players?
The is no limit to how many people can play. BUT there can be a surcharge if you have over 100 players using the “submit your answers” format because the host will need assistance marking (or else the event will take a really long time).
Can people talk to each other during virtual shows?
YES! Not only are you encouraged to form virtual teams using your preferred video conference application (Zoom, Messenger, Teams, etc.) there is also a Live Chat which allows everyone to interact. This is recommended for the full experience (just don’t write your answers in the chat!)
What do you mean by "Play-along" trivia?
“Play-along” Trivia is a term for games where players simply write down their answers at home. When the correct answers are revealed at the end of the round, players mark their own answer sheets and share their score with everyone in the chat, should they want to. Call it the “honour system” method of playing. This is preferable when there are no “performance prizes” (i.e. for the winning teams) but works great with “door prizes” (i.e. randomly drawn).
In the "Submit Answers" option, how do players submit answers?
Mack Flash uses www.triviarat.com as a method to collect and mark answers. One player per team, on a secondary device (e.g. smartphone, laptop, etc.) logs in, enters a team name, and submits answers when prompted. Their answers are reviewed after each round, and ongoing scores are shown on their device as well as announced by the host throughout the game.
Can we do raffles/door prizes and/or prizes for the winners?
Most definitely! Arrangements need to be made in advance to provide the necessary information (e.g. list of prizes, list of participants, predetermined list of prize winners, etc.) but we can even pull up a wheel on screen with everyone’s names to do random draws!
