Host Are You Smarter for a Large Group: Teams, Turns and an 11-Question Board

Run a projected logic relay for a room divided into discussion tables, with paper response cards keeping everyone involved and a separate route for optional live-room devices.

Ready-to-host questions and materials

Projected-room plan: form discussion tables, give every person A-D paper cards and appoint a rotating spokesperson. Display only the player view. These table subdivisions are manual facilitation, not additional native teams.

Use a 30-second silent think, a 30-second table discussion and a single agreed response; extend time when access needs require it. Ask two tables to explain a rejected choice after the reveal.

Online joining is optional. Free rooms allow three participant devices. Paid plans add capacity; consult the current pricing page rather than promising a tested maximum. Many people can watch a projection without each being a joined device.
