- Host reload loses nothing — scores are saved and the room resumes.

- Pick a category pack or mix them all before starting.
- 20 seconds per question, speed bonus for quick taps, live scoreboard.
FAQ
Do players need to download anything?
No. Everyone just opens the page in their phone browser and scans the QR code on the host's screen. No app, no account, no signup.
How many players can join?
Up to 12 in one room. With more people, play as teams — one phone per team works great.
How does scoring work?
Correct answer = 100 points, plus up to 100 more based on how fast you tapped. Scoreboard updates on the TV after each question.
What if someone's phone disconnects?
Their name and score are remembered. Reopen the link and they rejoin under the same name with their points intact.
Do I need a TV?
No. The host phone alone works — questions and scoreboard show right on it. Casting just makes it easier to see for everyone.
