Keep track of which questions have already been picked by printing out the game board screen and checking off as you go. • Click on the “Game” box to return to the main scoreboard. • Enter the score into the black box on each players podium. • Continue until all clues are given. • When finished, DO NOT save the game. This will overwrite the program with the scores and data you enter. You MAY save it as a different name, but keep this file untouched! © Mark E.
