So, I'm planning on doing a pulse version of the TV show, Pointless. In case you don't know the rules for it, here's a brief rundown: I (Or the current host) will give a list of questions about anything. It could be music, geography, literature or anything else. Then, if you want to join you'll PM me (Or the current host) your answer to each question. Your answer should be the answer you think the least amount of other people will choose, but still correct. If no-one else gets your answer, you get a point. If someone else chooses the same answer you choose, you'll get nothing. If you get the answer wrong, you'll LOSE a point.
Cringy Example 1:
Name a country beginning with A
Person A: Armenia
Person B: Afganistan Person C: Afganistan
Person D: Alabama
In this example, Person A would get a point, B and C would get nothing and D would lose a point. Any questions about the rules, just comment and I'll try and answer them.

Five Day ReminderI've had five submissions so far: chicken077 willapted33 crazyb greentoo Bwol Some facts: Everyone has at least 1 double up, but not everyone has a wrong answer. There are only three questions with no doubles ups or wrong answers, and they're all music questions. Two people have more double-ups than pointless answers. One person is in the lead by at least 3 points.

Three Day ReminderI've had seven submissions so far: chicken077 willapted33 crazyb greentoo Bwol BackwoodsBarbie frenchfry More facts Hopefully I don't spoil anything this time:Only one question has zero wrong or doubled up answers One question has everyone but one person not gaining points. The lead is very close! It's still anyone's game! Likewise for the last place! Only one point decides it. Good luck! I'm only taking submissions until 10th September. :)

24 Hour ReminderI've had nine submissions so far: chicken077 willapted33 crazyb greentoo Bwol BackwoodsBarbie frenchfry Leo ✔ aerodynamiteThe competition is close! With just one submission, the game could flip! Four of the double-ups are actually triple-ups, but we don't have any quadruples yet. Some of the wrong answers are pretty funny Leo ✔ , would you like to submit those final two questions? Good luck! Depending on how things go, I'll either start posting tomorrow night or on the 11th of September.

This is actually a good point. Does anyone else want me to start ranking them like this, or keep them the same? Because it will affect the wrong answers (Would you only remove one point? Getting an answer wrong would then mean more than a correct but popular answer, unlike the TV show), but they're WAY more realistic this way in terms of correct answers. BTW, this doesn't change the winner.

I agree with Sam and immediately thought of saying something but I didn't want to be rude.

Okay, would it be okay if the scores work like this:
You get as many 'points' as the amount of other people who choose your answer.
If no one chooses your answer, you get 0.
If you get the answer wrong, you get the highest amount of points for that round PLUS 1.
Would that work?

Would that work? For wrong answers, I'd say give the number of participants as the score. For example, if I answered Anaconda for Q1 and there are 15 people participating, I would get 15 points added to my totals.

That sounds good, but that would mean that hypothetically, someone could get pointless answers for every question but one wrong, and end up lower than someone who got every question doubled-up, but none wrong.
