This is really nice. Well done!
I've had a jeopardy based toy project on the backburner for several years, with the north star goal of solving the problem I've had with every jeopardy game I've ever played: you need an Alex/host who knows the answer and can judge players right or wrong. This ability to buzz in, be wrong and then have another player respond is fairly crucial to real strategic play.
I get this is for fun and not meant to be "real" jeopardy, but I wonder if you could add support for something like this by allowing a "join as host" option when using the QR code that would reveal the answer and not have a score.
Great work and thanks for sharing it!
- Wolfmans55 2y agoIn the menu you'll see there is a "Show answer" button. The host can log in on a different tab or device to see the answer to the currently flipped clue.
- gamerDude 2y agoI cannot find this button. :( It also took me multiple reloads to find the menu button since it disappears after a few seconds. My eyes are drawn to the board and not the upper left hand corner.
- Wolfmans55 2y agoYou'll only see it if you're logged in. I'll fix the menu button!
- bfdm 2y agoAh neat, I'll give that a try!
- explaininjs 2y agoYou mean the question? Everyone should be able to see the answer of the active clue.
- Wolfmans55 2y agoNope. Everyone should be able to see the clue, but not the answer or correct response to the clue.
- re 2y agoI believe that explaininjs is making a pedantic/semi-tongue-in-cheek joke about the gimmick of Jeopardy where the clues are "answers" and contestants buzz in to respond with the "question". https://youtu.be/KDTxS9_CwZA?t=156 https://youtu.be/KDTxS9_CwZA?t=156
- hunter2_ 2y agoIt would be pedantic if it were indeed nothing but a joke, but I think the existence of this gimmick forces us to assimilate our non-joking language in order to avoid ongoing problems. Easier to have common ground among participants and onlookers than not. To exclude yourself, should you wish, simply stick to clue/response.
- ilaksh 2y agoSeems like a strong LLM could act as a host.
