Prior to beginning the game, I have the teams choose team names and write them on a tent card. I pick the name I like best to go first. That team chooses a category and a dollar amount (they don’t have to go in any particular order).
The categories are:
Let Me In = Accessibility
Let Me Out = Egress
Hot Stuff = Fire Doors
Wired = Electrified Hardware
Don’t click on Alex Trebeck until you’re ready for Final Jeopardy.
Clicking twice on a dollar value will take you to the applicable question. Then advance through the slides until you reach a black slide (don’t advance past the black slide). Click anywhere on the black slide to return to the board. You can change the questions and answers, and you can add more slides, as long as you add them before the black slide.
The team that rings in first gets to answer the question. If they answer correctly, the dollar value is added to their score. If they answer incorrectly, the dollar value is subtracted from their score and the teams can ring in again. I let two teams try and if they’re still incorrect I just tell them the answer.
It’s hard to play this game with only one instructor. I bring another SSC person with me to be the spotter (see who rings in first) and the scorekeeper. I hand out a bell or horn to each team, and I’ve also used flags when I’ve had large teams in a big room.
When all of the questions have been asked/answered, click on Alex Trebeck to go to Final Jeopardy. Teams have to write down their wager before they see the question. They can wager up to their current point value. If any teams are in the red (always), I add enough points to each team to get the negatives into the positive. I collect the wagers and then read the question. I like to make it an open book question and let them use the code booklet. That gets them to open it up and check it out a bit.
I collect the answers to Final Jeopardy. If a team gets it wrong, their wager is subtracted from their score. If they get it right, the wager is added to their score. I give out $10 Dunkin’ Donuts gift cards to the winners and $5 DD gift cards to the losers.
