9000INC guide
Write a response to a prompt, compare anonymous captions, and let the audience decide which entry wins the round.
Choose Caption Clash inside 9K Game Night. Read the prompt before typing and aim for a response the whole group can understand. A short caption is easier to compare on a shared screen than a long explanation. Use the time available to finish the idea, then submit before the writing phase closes.
Captions are shown without their authors during voting. Avoid announcing your entry in voice chat or showing your answer screen before the matchup appears; doing so gives away the surprise. The author is revealed with the result, so the group can react together once votes have been counted.
The game presents captions in matchups. Players whose own captions are in the current matchup do not vote in it. If the voting control is unavailable while other people are choosing, you may be one of those authors. Read both entries and cast your own vote rather than following a friendβs choice.
Scoring follows the audience votes for each matchup. A matchup with no audience votes awards no points, and tied results share points. The third round uses a higher multiplier, so keep writing and voting even if you are behind early. Watch the revealed result to see which submissions received the votes.
Before starting, agree on the kind of jokes your group wants. Inside jokes are fun when everyone knows them, but a caption that relies on one private conversation leaves other players out. Do not put another personβs private contact details into a submission. If a player causes problems, leave the session and use the siteβs support or community reporting options.
Authors do not vote in a matchup containing their own caption. Wait for another matchup in which you are an audience member.
That matchup awards no points. Make sure the audience has time to read and submit a vote.
