What it is
This slide will show the top point-getters in your group, from lowest to highest. You can choose how many scores to show on the slide settings in the builder.

Showing winners of trivia games, quiz top-scorers, and more.
How it works
How winners are shown: This is a slide you add to your deck after "scored" slides (like the Multiple choice, Text answer, or User vote slides). It displays players' total point values, one at a time as you advance the slide. In the case of ties, players will be sorted then by speed of answer β the faster they've answered all questions on average, the higher they place.
Additive scoring: It will display the total point numbers from all scored slides, additively throughout the event. So for instance, you can have multiple rounds of trivia, and show the scores at the end of each round. The Score Summary slide will add new points to the total of all players' existing points.
Timed answers: The score summary slide sorts players first by total point number, and then by speed of answer. So if two players are tied for first place, the faster-answering player will show as placing first, and the slower will show as placing second.
How answer speed is calculated: the time from when the answer options / text entry field is displayed on a player device, to the time a correct answer is tapped/sent. These times are then averaged for all previous questions.
Only correctly answered questions factor in to a player's speed of answering (so, if a player has 0 points / 0 correct answers, they will have a 0 second "time to answer"). Players are timed down to the hundreth of a millisecond, (so a player who answered in 3.001s will place higher than one who answered in 3.002s, though only the first decimal digit is shown).
Settings
You don't need to make edits or adjust this slide in the builder unless you'd like to change the pre-set options.
Top X Scores Shown
Set the number of players to display in the number box. If you'd like to show more than 10, you can type in a higher number. (Since these are shown one by one right ot left, we don't recommend showing more than 12 or so places.)
Show player answer speed
You can set when the slide displays your players' average correct answering speed:
"For Ties": On this default setting, the score summary slide will show the point totals of players, and then in the case of a tie it will show the average speed of a player's correct answers.
β"Always": This setting will display players' average speed of correct answer for all players regardless of score.
β"Never": This setting will not display player answer speeds (even for tied players). The slide will still show faster-answering players in higher places (rather than say a randomized order). If you'd like to not delineate places, see below:
Hide participant places
Turn this toggle ON (pink) to remove the "first place" "second place" "third place" etc. text underneath each person. This is if you'd like to show scores but not delineate a place / ranking for each player.
How it looks for players
Players will be able to see their own score highlighted on their joined device.
The top ten scorers will be blanked out for players (including their own score, if they are in the top 10) when you display the first step of the Score Summary slide. As you advance, the scores will display on each players' phone.
Joined in devices can also see all scores (eg if you have more than 10 players but are only displaying the top 10 scores) by loading more at the bottom of their screen.
