How To Play

Each game of trivia consists of the following rules

  1. Each game consists of a number of rounds of questions.
  2. Each question is displayed to the player.  In some cases,  a talkSPORT presenter or sports celebrity will read out the question for the player.  The player is given approximately 2 seconds to read the question.
  3. A selection of up to 4 possible answers is then displayed to the player and an additional 2 seconds is given for the player to read the possible answers before a count down timer starts.  The player must choose an answer before the timer runs out.
  4. The player chooses their answer by touching it on their phones,  or by clicking on it using their mouse on a computer,  depending what device the game is played upon.
  5. Once the game timer starts,  the question is deemed to be "in play" by the current player and requires an answer in the given time period.  If any issue should arise for the player;  such as internet failure, power failure,  browser crash or any other reason that prevents an answer being selected,  the question shall be marked as unanswered with an incorrect answer recorded for that question and the question can not be replayed. 
  6. A score is calculated for each question, based on the speed of the player's answer.  The faster the player answers correctly,  the more points are scored.
  7. The game continues until all of the rounds of questions have been answered.
  8. A summary of the game and their score is made available to the player at the end of each round and the finale of the game.

Prizes

A cash prize may be offered to the player who ends the competition with the highest score.  In the case of more than one player with the same score,  the prize shall be equally divided between those players.

An additional "participation prize" may be offered to one or more players who enter the quiz.  Prizes may be given at talkSport's discretion to one or more players, selected at random, who have registered and played in the quiz.

In the case of cash prizes being awarded,  the winners will be notified by telephone, text, email or post, using the contact details supplied on their account.  If the winner does not respond within 5 days, or is found to be ineligible, the prize shall be forfeited.  Cash prize draw prizes will be paid by bank transfer.
