Once the moderator finishes reading the question, the "Done Reading" button should be clicked.
(Or, it can be started by pressing the "Spacebar" key on your keyboard.) Slam-In starts the
question’s Deliberation Timer and displays an Award/Penalize operator menu:
The team that answered the preceding Toss-Up Question correctly is automatically highlighted
on-screen, and their name is automatically placed in the Award/Penalize operator menu for you.
Note: In some competition formats such as Illinois’ IHSA, the team captain is required to signal or
ring-in on Bonus Questions. Under these conditions, the moderator or system operator should
click on the captain’s player number within that team’s scorebox to signify a ring-in.
If the team’s answer is correct, enter the number of points they earn into the Award/Penalize
operator menu:
Click "Done" if this team won all the Bonus Question’s points or answered all parts of the Bonus
Question correctly.
If they did not earn all the Bonus Question’s points and your competition format calls for the
question (or its incorrectly answered parts) to “bounce back” to another team, then click Save
instead. Then click on the other team’s scorebox (or on the team captain’s player number within
that team’s scorebox) to recognize the other team. Slam-In automatically updates the
Award/Penalize operator menu to allow you to award points to that team:
Click "Done" when you have completed the Bonus Question, and Slam-In automatically resets
itself to play the next Toss-Up Question.
