Host tips
- Explain the scoring rule before the first guess.
- Use a mix of easy, surprising, and discussion-worthy prices.
- Let teams talk for a few seconds before locking a guess.
- Add a short explanation after each reveal so the round feels useful.
Mistakes to avoid
- Using only obscure items that nobody can reasonably estimate.
- Making every prompt the same difficulty.
- Skipping explanations when the price reveal could teach or entertain.
- Letting rounds drag too long without a timer or guess deadline.
