With Multi-Member Team mode, a game can be played between teams composed of multiple members. Each team can have as many team members as desired. When answering a question, any member of the team can buzz in. The player that buzzes in first registers for the team. As a moderator, you can see which team buzzed in first, but you can’t tell which specific student it was.
The Multi-Member Teams settings are located on the Customize page. In Multi-Member Team mode, one of the players will be designated as the “Team Captain” and each team can have as many members as possible. Here are the settings you can customize for your multi-member mode:
- Player Selected Team Assignment. With player-selected teams, a player chooses a role in the team. A player can play as a Team Captain or a Team Member. The team captain selects the mascot. The team members can join the game by selecting the mascot that represents their team.
- Random Team Assignment. This option randomly assigns players to a team as they join the game. Each team will have a team captain which is randomly designated as well.
- None: Multi-Member Team will be disabled.
Additional features for Multi-Member Teams include:
- Allow Multi-Member Team Chat: This option allows team members to chat among themselves during the game.
- Only Allow the Team Member who Buzzes in to Answer: When this option is enabled, only the member who buzzes in can submit an answer for that specific question. The other members and the captain will not be permitted to answer that question.
Note: Only the designated Team Captains can enter the Final Factile wager and send in the Final Factile answer.
