Dammit, I missed it tonight.

It is lot of fun, though I wish they ran the live show more often.

My gamertag is mugwump67.

Yup, its free to gold members right now. I don't know what it'll be after the beta, but it looks like their aiming towards an advertiser-supported format.

There's almost always a 1v100 blade on the xbox spotlight tabs. You can see the schedule and set reminders from there.

The quads are just groups that they sit you in. There's supposed to be someway to talk to the people in your group without a party or chat invite, but I haven't been able to figure it out and I've never heard anyone chatting in my group.

During the hosted play sessions, you need to be in the top 3 to win a prize during a round unless you've been chosen for the mob or as the one. I'm not sure whether they give prizes for the extended play sessions.

I think just to get into the top 100, you basically to 100% a round with all instant answers and around an average 185-190 speed.

There were a few questions last night that made me feel really old...
-- More than 1/2 the mob thought a 45rpm single was 10".
-- More than 1/2 thought the Sony Walkman was invented in 1985 or 1989.

I also was amazed by the number of wrong answers on those..
