Majority Rules Game Show for College Events
Majority Rules Game Show is brand new TRIVIA FREE game! That’s right – no correct or incorrect answers – just what the majority decides!
Everyone plays Majority Rules Game Show! This fun and completely interactive game is played from their seats in the audience! They play on their phone, tablet or laptop using a unique code created just for that game. The technology tabulates answers based on when they answer on their device (not the main screen) so that scoring is 100% accurate.
Here’s how Majority Rules works:
We put a question on the board such as “Which is healthier?” then provide two answers, in this case “tater tots” or “french fries”. This isn’t the time to discuss that they’re both deep fat fried potatoes, it’s the time to decide on an answer and log your answer in. There is no “right answer” there’s only what the majority says. If you vote with the majority – you get points. How many points you get depends on how quickly you logged in your answer!
A running tabulation of scores is shown between each round.
And then…
After several questions like the one above with two answers – we switch into “Battle Royale” mode where more is at risk! In “Battle Royale” mode there are now 4 possibilities to choose from and your choice is more important than ever – because if you guess the lowest ranking option – you lose all of your points and will have to fight your way back to the top of the leaderboard.
Surprises
Every Majority Rules Game Show has surprises built into it with recognition and prizes for the winners!

What our college customers are saying about Survey Says
All other events are quoted with the client providing prizes.
Honestly – the Bronze Level is the way to go with this show as it’s all about the interaction with the audience and the professional hosting and technology that we bring to make the show rock. Very little actually happens on the stage – this show plays more like BINGO.
We’ll ask you to provide a few things for this show. It leaves the big sets at home and uses readily available items from your campus. See “Technical Needs” on this page for those items. It also makes the show super affordable, especially for distant shows, as our host can fly to your show instead of drive.

- Wireless Connectivity so host can run show from the stage.
- Custom table covers to turn any two tables into great looking player stands.

We bring just about everything needed for these shows. See tech rider on downloads page for specific details, but here’s an overview of what we’ll need:
Electrical: Our equipment can run off of regular household current. We ask that 4 outlets, on 20 amp circuits, be available for our exclusive use.
If these outlets are further than 30′ away from the performance area then extension cords should be provided.
General Stage Lighting: A general stage wash is needed for the show. The lighting we carry is for effect and general illumination should be provided by the venue. Our Platinum level shows include full stage lighting.
Sound: We carry our own sound equipment for Beat the Banker
Load in/Load out assistance: We have a LOT of gear to load in. It’s all on wheels, so there’s no heavy lifting. We don’t require help, but we sure appreciate it when we get it and it puts our crew in a great mood for your show!
All of the above plus we strongly recommend a spider box or a direct power input as we will be drawing a lot of power. This is only for the platinum level shows as the lighting package and sound package is much more robust and intense.
You’ll know exactly what your price is before we contract. No Surprises.
We’re all about being easy to work with.
There is no cost for his as long as we have at least 2 weeks notice. Rushes may incur a $50 charge – so please check in advance if you need any special wording.
This show can be set in under an hour. Realistically it can be set in 20 minutes if all of the assets are in place such as sound and video. Teardown and load out takes about 20 minutes too.
Take about 3-3 1/2 hours to set up and about 60-90 minutes to tear down and load out.
Please take this into account when scheduling your facilities.
Shorter set up times (within reason) can be accomplished by us bringing in extra crew at an extra cost. Please inquire if you will need us to do this.
Take about 4-4 1/2 hours to set up and about 75-100 minutes to tear down and load out.
Please take this into account when scheduling your facilities.
Shorter set up times (within reason) can be accomplished by us bringing in extra crew at an extra cost. Please inquire if you will need us to do this.
These set up times assume easy access to the rooms, a loading dock and NO STAIRS. If we will need extra time to load in please let us know in advance.
We can adjust to fit your event. We recommend 65 minutes – 70 minutes.
For that we’d recommend Survey Says or Fast Action Trivia.
Guests would also need to be able to see the video screen.
In order to avoid raising our prices by up to 5% for everyone, our contracts will always contain this wording:
SPECIAL NOTE: The agreed upon fee is the amount that should be paid to Game Shows To Go AFTER ANY FEES, STATE TAXES (income, performer or otherwise), Special Licensing Fees required by your state or other municipality or organization. There is no way for us to keep up with all 50 states and thousands of states and cities. The amount of the check written to Game Shows to go, after deductions should be (amount quoted for show). If the gross needs to be adjusted please do so to ensure the proper payment amount. Thanks for your understanding.
This seems to be the best way to keep our prices low and only pass along these costs to the states/people who charge them. Our fees usually include travel/lodging/prizes/promotional materials and many other expenses and that are not income.
Ways we can work around this are:
- Add the amount expected to be deducted for these fees/taxes to the amount your check is requested for.
- Subtract the amount of fees/taxes from the prize money we give at the show (if we are providing prizes).
- Add a clause that says expenses of “up to <the amount of taxes/fees> will be billed after the show” and we’ll bill you for that exact amount.
We give HUGE discounts to schools who work with us to create routes. Using Coop buying really helps everyone to win.
You can also get discounts by scheduling more than one show during the school year.
Other than that, we have a published price list with competitive pricing that we stand by. We don’t give an inflated price just to give you a false discount. We quote a great market price and stick to it. We hope you’ll appreciate us being up front about this, it seems to be the most ethical way to do business.
