You are in. Welcome to the exclusive Beta test for our brand new, fully autonomous Winter Trivia League.
For the next four weeks, we are testing a totally new way to play trivia. No live hosts, no rigid start times, and no screaming over a crowded bar. This is a 4-game-a-week, play-on-your-own-schedule league designed to test your general knowledge, reward your niche obsessions, and ultimately crown a Winter Champion.
Because you are part of the Beta testing group, your feedback is just as important as your final score. Play the games, break the system, and tell us what you love (and what you hate).
What Are We Playing For?
This is a Beta, but your competitive dignity is still on the line. The player sitting at the absolute top of the Master Leaderboard on Sunday, December 27th will win:
- The Title: The inaugural Winter League Champion.
- The Hardware: A highly specific, moderately absurd novelty trophy to make everyone else jealous.
- The Power: The opportunity to dictate one “Deep Dive” theme for the next season.
The Weekly Rhythm: 4 Games, 4 Formats
Every week, four unique games will drop. They are completely autonomous—you can play them on your phone while drinking your morning coffee, sitting on the train, or ignoring your family during the holidays.
Monday: The Weekly Warm-Up (15 General Knowledge questions. Opens 8am, closes Midnight)
Wednesday: The Deep Dive (15 Niche Theme questions. Opens 8am, closes Midnight)
Friday: Sudden Death Survivor (12-15 escalating difficulty questions. One wrong answer = instant elimination. Opens 8am, closes Midnight)
Saturday: The Weekend Visual (10 image-based questions. Opens Saturday 8am, closes Sunday Midnight)
How to Play & Track Your Score
The Golden Rule: You MUST use the exact same Nickname and Email Address every time you log in to a new game. If you play as “TriviaKing” on Monday and “Trivia_King” on Wednesday, the system will treat you as two different players, and you will lose your cumulative points.
Speed Matters: For Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday games, points decrease the longer you take to answer. A correct answer locked in at 2 seconds is worth significantly more than a correct answer locked in at 14 seconds. Don’t bother Googling—you’ll burn your own score.
Your Next Steps
Bookmark this page: This will be your hub. Every Sunday night, we will update this page with the four new game links and access codes for the upcoming week.
Check the Leaderboard: We will post the updated Seasonal Standings here every Monday morning so you know exactly who you need to catch.
Prepare for Week 1: The beta officially launches on Monday, November 30th. Check back here that morning for your first link.
The Fine Print (FAQs)
Can I just Google the answers?
You can try, but you will fail. The Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday games feature a ruthless 15-second timer with decreasing points. By the time you type “Who played the dad in Frasier,” the timer will be at 2 seconds, and you will earn roughly 4 points.
What if I miss a game?
You score zero for that day. But don’t panic—the 10-week season is a marathon. A bad Friday Survivor round can absolutely wreck a front-runner, giving you plenty of time to catch up on Saturday.
Can I change my nickname halfway through?
No. The Master Leaderboard tracks your exact email and nickname combination. Pick a name on Day 1 and commit to it.
