Pot of Gold - Rules and Game Details

Schedule: A new game starts daily and runs 24 hours.

Difficulty level: Intermediate to Difficult

Number of questions: 20

Score Comparisons: To prevent the sharing of answers, we run with 15 distinct question sets per day, randomly assigned to players as they play. Players are scored against those players who have identical questions to them, so that we have an absolutely fair playing field.

Gold Coins: You will earn between 1 and 100 Gold Coins daily for playing, depending where you finish relative to other players in your set. Gold Coins will allow you to earn a long-running cumulative badge.

Standings: Cumulative scores are reset each week. The player with the highest cumulative score each week will earn a badge (all ties get it).

7 Mini Badges: Award 1000 points each. Goes to highest player in each set each day. If the same players tend to dominate the top, we will extend award criteria to give more casual players a better chance.

FunTrivia Points Awarded: This game awards your score divided by 6 points as bonus FunTrivia Points each day in each question set. Bonuses (*): +250 for winner, +150 for 2nd, +100 for 3rd, +50 for 4th/5th, +30 for 6th-10th
