Question 1

I’m not positive how many people will play.  Is it OK if more/less people show up than what I project?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Our simple event format was purposefully designed so that attendance fluctuations don’t affect how we host. Whether 5 people show up or 50, our host will welcome them warmly and make sure they have a blast connecting through fun! *Please note, if the actual attendance goes above the projected attendance, no sweat! You will simply be charged for these extra players after the soiree.

Question 2

Can this event be enjoyed by attendees from different countries?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Anyone who logs in will have a blast, no matter where they’re located in the world.

Question 3

Does this event work well for a large group of people (over 50)?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Our event format ensures that everyone is engaged in the main room, is able to comfortably connect with small teams in breakout rooms, and has a blast throughout!

Question 4

Is it OK if players log in late or leave early?

Accepted Answer

Certainly! Our flexible format makes it easy to ingratiate folks who arrive late and easily roll with people leaving early.

Question 5

Can you remotely host this event in a hybrid or in-person capacity?

Accepted Answer

Definitely! Our friendly host is broadcast live on a TV at your venue to lead in-person players through a fun & social experience. Virtual players will enjoy the same festive activities by simply clicking the video link to login. These soirees are super simple to plan, cost effective, easy to set up on event day & extremely impressive for everyone who joins.

Question 6

Do at least 15 people have to play in order for this event to work?

Accepted Answer

You can absolutely enjoy this event with less than 15 people. We can actually lead this soiree with as few as 2 people if necessary! As a quick heads up, we normally require you to book for 15 people as this is the minimum amount we traditionally need to charge to cover the costs of leading the soiree. But again, you don't not need to have that many folks show up to enjoy the festivities!

Question 7

How much time will be spent with the whole group versus in small teams?

Accepted Answer

Roughly ⅔ of the event is experienced with everyone while ⅓ is enjoyed in small teams (of 3-5 people).

Question 8

Will players have to perform or be singled out in front of the entire group?

Accepted Answer

Nope! Most of the talking they’ll be doing will be in small groups of 3-5 people (while in breakout rooms). If they feel like talking in the main room, great! If not, they can easily chat out their thoughts or stay silent while with everyone. It's up to them!

Question 9

When will the event start/players be let in from the waiting room (if joining virtually)?

Accepted Answer

The host will login to start the waiting room 10 minutes before the event start time. They will then let people in from the waiting room at the exact event start time. If you (the event organizer) join before the event, they'll gladly let you in roughly 3 minutes before the event starts. This allows you to say hi and go over any questions either of you have!

Question 10

Can I request that teams stay the same throughout?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We can keep the same team combination throughout the event if you feel that fits your plans better.

Question 11

Do I (the event organizer) have to be at the event?

Accepted Answer

Nope! Our events are fully hosted so it will go smoothly whether you’re there or not. If you do decide to attend, we highly encourage you to join in the fun as we’ll take care of everything! If you can't make it, you'll know exactly how it went as we automatically send you a detailed event recap the next business day.

Question 12

Can winners be found/announced by the host?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Since we switch up the teams throughout, we're able to find/announce individual winners instead of winning teams. We traditionally like to announce 3 individual winners at the end of each event. Awards such as Most Points, Most Enthusiastic, Most Visual Spirt, Most Encouraging, Funniest, etc keep everyone involved and bring out characteristics that make the soiree more fun for everyone! The winners will be sent to you in the event recap the next business day.

Question 13

Can I provide a list of the exact teams we want to be grouped together?

Accepted Answer

Yes! If you’d like to have predetermined teams, you would simply need to send us a list of teams at least 8 hours in advance so our host knows how you want to group everyone! In this scenario, the teams would stay the same throughout the entire event. Helpful info - We only recommend going this route if you KNOW that everyone will be attending. If you’re not sure if players are guaranteed to join, we’d suggest you let teams be randomized.

Question 14

Do players have to turn their cameras on the entire event (if joining virtually)?

Accepted Answer

This event is all about having fun and connecting in a comfortable atmosphere. Therefore, they make the call based on their comfort level!

Question 15

Does this event work well for a group of people that are located around the world?

Accepted Answer

Definitely! All of the trivia and game content we use is specifically designed to be relevant for players, no matter what country they are joining from!

Question 16

Does this event work well for a large group of people (40-997 people)?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Our event format ensures that everyone is engaged in the main room, is able to comfortably connect with small teams in breakout rooms, and has a blast throughout!
