Circling back to this now that answer images are out in the wild, whew . So it sounds like Iâm hearing the following two features are wanted:
Multiple-Choice Per-Answer Points
This is the ability to set different points values for each multiple-choice answer option. The player sees all the answer options (because itâs multiple-choice). I assume all other points inputs like question points, question timer, points wagering, etc. all donât apply because if youâre setting points per-answer they player should receive THAT amount of points? And you would still only want one answer cast per question per player?
Set Points Per Incoming Text Answer
This is the ability to ignore all set question/answer points/timers/etc. and just set the points on every text-answer that is cast. So even if it matches (or doesnât match) the correct answer(s) set in the text-answer question, you would still want the ability to set the points, per your own rule system. And as I noted several posts above, this would only really work on a small group as doing this with 100+ players would be unfeasible.
Just came to the community to ask about Feud-style features, so Iâm happy to see they have already been requested. The âMultiple-Choice Per-Answer Pointsâ and âSet Points Per Incoming Text Answerâ are BOTH features that my team would love to see implemented.
For the multiple-choice option - Yes, I would imagine the other points inputs arenât a factor, and questions using this feature would only depend on the point values set for each option. I would love this feature because then we could mix up a Feud-style game so that it doesnât exactly mirror the famous game show.
And, of course, the text option would be critical for a Feud game. I would want to be able to pre-set point values for text answers AND to appoint values to incoming answers.
But hereâs an additional idea that would help us for this game - If we could actually appoint a specific participant(s) or a specific team(s) to answer a question, so that only they may answer it. I think this is less important than the other features, but would also be helpful
I totally agree. I also do Feud type games, and use multi choice, so I just want to be able to award a set number of points per answer, there is not need for any other factors to change that.
I also see this being useful for things like Horse races, since you can set points for Win, Place and Show. I guess in a dream world, I could also set correct answers as a multiplier, rather than set points, in points wager situations. That might be too much, but I feel like I should put it out there.
Just an update, we are working on per-answer points now - where you can set individual points values on your various multiple-choice answer options. It will be coming in a few weeks!
This is the first of some of these updates weâll be releasing.
Will there be an option for multiple scoring options as the answers come in? On a text answer, not multiple choice. As the answers come up, we can award points individually
I see that this has almost been a year. Iâm curious if there is an update.
Set Points Per Incoming Text Answer
This is the ability to ignore all set question/answer points/timers/etc. and just set the points on every text-answer that is cast. So even if it matches (or doesnât match) the correct answer(s) set in the text-answer question, you would still want the ability to set the points, per your own rule system. And as I noted several posts above, this would only really work on a small group as doing this with 100+ players would be unfeasible.
That is DEFINTELY something Iâd like to use. Is it available yet, or on a roadmap?
We are working on this feature (itâs already done for multiple-choice questions, just not released yet). Itâs basically a Family Feud style feature where different answers have different points.
Weâre also discussing this in another thread here - Family Feud Style Answers - #4 by RossN. The hold-up is getting this implemented for text-answer questions as well.
Something that just occurred to me, is if we simply added the ability to edit each participantâs cast answerâs points in the Crowd Activity table, this could be a simple solution for now. Especially if your group is small. Similar to how you can edit scorecards in the Rankings tab.
Hello I know you are trying to include text responses however that may take some time as there can be many spellings of an answer. I would love to start using the ability to edit the points in the crowd activity as you mentioned. This would suffice until you get the more robust text answer in line. Alternatively as answers populate can the host just assign them a point value in real time? Similar to the way the host can mark them as correct⊠but instead put a numerical value. Thanks in advance. Love the product!

Iâd like to throw my vote to this enhancement as well. Itâs disappointing to see that this was close to being added, but then stalled due to scope creep. While making this work for text responses could be a future enhancement, making it for just multiple-choice format first makes so much sense. PLEASE add this feature!
