STATS Game Night · Friends & Family Beta · v1.0
STATS is a free skill-and-attention game played along with a live basketball broadcast. You score by predicting the game before tip-off and by answering questions about what just happened at each quarter break. No wagers, no entry fee — ever.
Lock 6 picks before tip-off: winning team (5 pts) and the leader in points, assists, steals, rebounds & blocks (4 pts each). Nail the leader's exact stat total for a +5 bonus per category. Predictions can't be changed after tip-off.
At the end of each quarter, answer 3 questions about the quarter you just watched. Correct answers are worth 1 pt each in Q1, 2 in Q2, 3 in Q3, and 4 in Q4. You have 20 seconds per question. No lookups — the whole game is that you were paying attention.
Every correct quarter answer also banks the seconds you had left on the clock as Speed points. Example: answer correctly with 14 seconds left → +14 ⚡. Ties in total points are broken by Speed. Speed never beats accuracy — it only settles ties.
Once per half you can fire your Lifeline: in Practice mode it removes two wrong options; on Game Night it adds +15 seconds to the clock (time to ask the room — just like the arena timeout).
When the host announces each quarter's answers (from the broadcast + official box score), tap them in your app to score the quarter. After the final buzzer, enter the official stat leaders to score your predictions. Max regulation score: 80 (81 with an overtime question). Post your result card to the group chat — highest score wins the night, Speed breaks ties.
Answer from what you watched — not from a box score mid-question. The 20-second clock exists so lookups don't pay. Host's announced answers are final (official box score settles disputes). Be cool: it's game night, not the SEC.
Free to play; no purchase or payment ever required to play or win. 18+. This beta is for entertainment among friends; any prizes are provided by the host/sponsor and awarded on final verified stats. STATS is not affiliated with the WNBA or its teams — we're a game about watching the game. Full sweepstakes rules will govern public seasons.
This is how you'll show up on the leaderboard.
