*Note: The same strategies applied to the original You Don't Know Jack game
can be used in Sports as well, such as the following hints & tips;
#1
To skip the explanation of the game, hit the space bar after you've entered
what type of game is being played (i.e. 7 or 21 question game)
#2
If you're confident in your trivia knowledge, buzz in as soon as the host
starts reading the question. You then have a few seconds to finish reading the
question and answer. This will put you ahead in the buzzer department.
#3
DO NOT buzz in as soon as the new question comes up -- if you try and buzz in
before the host starts reading the question, he will make the question
disappear and then make you try and answer it. Very tough, if not impossible!
#4
Wait and read the clues on the Gibberish questions. The clues are very helpful
in determining what the jumbled phrase is.
#5
"Screwing Your Neighbor" is a valuable tool in YOU DON'T KNOW JACK. "Screw" on
high value questions (i.e. $2000 for more) and if it looks like your opponents
don't know the answer, "screw" 'em!
#6
The "Jack Attack". Keep your finger on the buzzer (not pressing the key, just
lightly resting on it). This will give you a slight time advantage over your
opponents. Buzz-in as soon as you see the corresponding word, but "remember
the clue!!"
