If you want to skip a question during

for any one question. Each time the
HINT
button is pressed, the game will
eliminate one incorrect answer, indi-
cated by
CHOICES X ELIMINATED
appearing on the LCD. (The X will
be the actual answer deleted out of A
through E.) If you press

times while answering a question, or
if you run out of hints, the message

played.
Multiple Players Game Mode
After selecting the Players game
mode, you will be asked to choose
how many players you’d like to have
in the game. If there are two players,
which is the default setting, simply
press
ENTER
. If you would like a dif-
ferent number of players, press
UP
to
display the choice of either three or
four players. (The
DOWN
button
allows you to decrease the number of
players in the game.) Press
ENTER
when the number of players dis-
played is the number you would like
to have in the game.
You’ll next be asked to choose how
many questions you would like to
answer in this game. If you’d like to
answer eight questions (the default
number), simply press
ENTER
. If you
would like to answer a different num-
ber of questions, press the
UP
button
to display the option of either 16, 24
or 40 questions. (The
DOWN
button
will allow you to decrease the num-
ber of questions you would like to
select.) Press
ENTER
when the number
of questions displayed is the number
you would like to answer.
You’ll then be asked to choose how
many hints you would like in this
game for the first player. (NOTE:
each player can select a different
number of hints, so “handicapping” is
possible. For example, a parent could
choose 8 hints, while his child may
choose 24.) The number of hints
allowed in the game depends on the
number of questions you chose to
answer.
(a) If you selected 8 questions,
you may choose 8, 16 or 24 hints.
(b) If you selected 16 questions,
you may choose 16, 32 or 48
hints.
(c) If you selected 24 questions,
you may choose 24, 48 or 72
hints.
(d) If you selected 40 questions,
you may choose 40, 80 or 120
hints.
Choose the number of hints you
would like in the game by using the
UP
and
DOWN
buttons as described in
the previous step above. Then press
ENTER
to confirm your choice. Repeat
this process for each player to indi-
cate how many hints a player is
allowed.
The message
QUESTION 1 and

will next be displayed on
your screen. Press

DOWN
to

appear on the screen, followed by the
beginning of the question. Pressing
the
DOWN
button repeatedly will dis-
play the remainder of the question,
screen by screen.
When you then reach the end of the
question,
CHOICES:
will be dis-
played. At this point, pressing the
DOWN
button repeatedly will show the
five answers, A through E. When you
press the
DOWN
button and no more
answers appear, ‘

’ will be
shown for one second. Press the

repeatedly. When you reach the end

will appear on
the screen for one second. (Press
