How it plays
- A scatter of dots flashes on the TV and disappears. Type how many you saw and send it before the clock runs out.
- Exact count scores 3, one off scores 1. Eight rounds, each with more dots for less time. Most points wins.
Rules
- How it runs. Watch the TV: the dots flash and vanish. Then the phone asks how many. Type a number and press send before the bar runs out.
- Scoring. The TV shows the dots again with the real count and everyone's guess. Exact scores 3, one off scores 1, anything else nothing.
- Winning. Eight rounds, from four slow dots to a crowd that is gone in a blink. Most points wins; ties go to whoever hit the exact count more often.
