2. How to play:
You are divided into groups or teams. The person that will select the first value and category will be chosen at random. The first group to raise their hand or beep in will have a short time to give the answer in question form. If they can not answer in the allotted time the other groups will have a chance to answer by raising their hand or beeping in. There is a daily double and the team will be able to wager money on that question. There is also final Jeopardy where all the teams will have to write down the correct answer to the question with their wager. At the end of the game, the team with the most money wins. Good Luck!
