caveats

• There's no 'buzz in' capability. you'll need to figure that out on your own.
• there's no persistence. reloading the page will reset the game.
• there's no daily double

why?

• our kids wanted to play jeopardy.
• keeping track of the scores, managing the participants and reading the questions was hard to do. This makes it easier.
