Remember those Bud Light Wheat/Lime trivia break questions this past Summer/Fall??

Well Buzztime is going have a 3 question trivia break tween Trivia Rounds. And GET THIS, You will get P+ Points for it, so see a points surges for players for a 3 hour period.

Thanks for the heads up on this. This would be cool if true about the PP points. However, this explanation seems to be open to interpretation:
"...you might just pick up a few extra PlayersPlus points while you’re playing"

Or, you might not.

Oh yes, let's everybody worry about their P+ points. What a fucking surprise. And not one comment about how the current (real, ranked) BT game could be adversely impacted by something new being introduced into the programming.

The only, ONLY good thing about this is the increased revenue stream. The rest is nothing but appeasing the morons with no attention span.

One thing I wish it won't happen is repeat the same questions all day like they did with the question breaks during the summer. then if the morons miss it the first time, just maybe they get right the second time.

I believe it is going be in between rounds more than between games.

What the hell is wrong with you man? These are P+ points we're talking about, not top scores or prize money. Anybody who's anybody would hold their piss and collect those amazing P+ points.

Man up wimp.

I prefer the wimp label instead of the alternative result. I also go between rounds on 30 minute games, so I'll have to bite the bullet and lose all those valuable PP points.

After two beers I am on a 30 minute break schedule for the rest of the night. My bladder and Kidneys are aging faster than the rest of me.

Boy, BO...
When PP points become the only valid scrip of the new world order, aren't you going to be chagrinned...

When that happens, with my last weak starving breath I will still steadfastly proclaim I played for all the right reasons. Then, and only then will the P+ vultures feast on my dead soulless carcass.
