How the scoring system rewards unique answers
SummaryA correct answer earns you points, but if another player wrote the exact same word for the same category, your points for that slot go down. Writing something that no one else thought of earns you the highest possible score for that category.
- Correct answer earns points as long as it starts with the right letter and fits the category.
- Shared answer earns reduced points because another player wrote the same thing.
- Unique answer earns the top points for that category since no one else matched it.
