They must return to the passed question after completing the other three in order to win the Bonus Round for $15,000. If a team member feels they are stuck on a question, they can hit the skip Button (which stops the clock) and skip to the next question. Play starts again with the team captain and is similar to the main game: a correct guess allows the player to give another answer, a wrong answer passes control to the next player in line.įor the first survey question, only the top answer is needed, the second needs the top two answers, the third needs the top three answers, and the fourth and final question needs the top four answers. The players are lined up in the same order around a central console with a large red skip button.
In the Bonus Round, the winning team has 60 seconds to correctly identify the top answers to four survey questions. If the answer given is incorrect, then the other team wins automatically. If the answer given is correct, that captain wins the game for his or her team. The first captain to buzz in is given the chance to answer. The first letter of the top answer is shown, and then the question is shown. In the event of a tie after the third round, a tiebreaker is played between the team captains. The team with the most points after all three rounds wins $1,000 and the chance to play for $15,000 in the bonus round. The round ends immediately if the trailing team can no longer catch their opponents. The team on the viewer's left starts the first two rounds the team that is ahead after two rounds starts the third round (the team on the left starts the third round if there is a tie). Likewise, the third round is played for 300 points per answer and 3,000 bonus points for all seven. The second round is played the same way, with 200 points given for each correct answer and a 2,000-point bonus for all seven. As a general rule, other than questions that explicitly deal with synonyms for a given word, the show tries to avoid including two or more synonyms in the answers when they do not fill in the same blanks (for example, "actor" and "thespian" would not be separate answers for most questions unless the question were something like "_ is another word for a performer"). Synonyms and word forms are acceptable if they correctly fill in the same blank(s): for example, "chefs" and "cooking" would both be acceptable for "cooks," but "physician" would not be acceptable for "doctor". In early episodes, the opposing team was allowed to confer on steals during episodes filmed using a socially-distanced set during the COVID-19 pandemic, individual players give one answer each, without conferring. Steal attempts are untimed but end when either the board is completed or the stealing team gives an incorrect answer. If the team cannot guess all seven, then the opposing team is given a chance to steal the remaining answers at 100 points each. The team is awarded 100 points for every correct answer, and a 1,000-point bonus (1,700 total) if they can get all seven answers within 30 seconds. Players may not give answers out of turn if a player does so, including before the previous player's answer is ruled incorrect, the answer is disregarded, and the team is given in a five-second penalty. This process continues (going back to the beginning of the line as often as necessary) until either all seven answers are given or time runs out. The first player offers an answer and keeps giving answers until giving an answer that is not on the board, at which point control passes to the next player in line. The team has a total of 30 seconds to guess all seven answers correctly. In each round, each team is given one question. The length of the blank is a further clue to the length of the correct answer. For example, if the question is "When I think of Italy, I think of ," an answer might be "L_ T_" for Leaning Tower. One team is shown a fill-in-the-blank and its top seven answers, with the first letter of each word in each correct answer being shown as a clue. Two teams of four compete, consisting of friends and family.
