Run each question

Start the timer when the room is ready. Watch Correct, Incorrect, Pending and Not Submitted counts. Reveal the answer, review any manual or ambiguous submissions, then move to the next question only after marking is complete.

If something goes wrong

Pause the room before changing state. Reload only the affected player or presenter first; keep the host tab open. If a team cannot submit, record its answer and correct the mark from the host screen. See connection troubleshooting for recovery steps.
