Who's Got a Match?
on a question. However, this can be tricky because you can’t rely on getting the full measure of points if you have to search for the right answer. For example, let’s assume the question is: Who wrote “Jane Eyre”? You may well know the answer is “Charlotte Bronte”, but will it turn out to be “1", “2", “3", “4" or “5" on the list of potential responses? Even though it may take you only a second to discover Charlotte occupies the number 3 slot, that will undoubtedly take you at least a few points off the 1000. However, assuming you have a few questions leeway to play with, you could try positioning your finger over one of the answer keys, only punching it if indeed the right answer is given that position. Failing to answer a question at all yields a zero, so it may be better to let the question pass and try for the full thousand points on a different one.
Sound complicated? Take heart – while these suggestions may improve your chances at qualifying, others have done it just by guessing well. As with many NTN games, a little luck helps a lot.
