Holding a large gathering where you want to play Wits & Wagers? Well, here is a spreadsheet for running the game for large teams on a projection screen. Supports play for 3 to 7 teams.

You will need Excel 2003 or later, a projector and the Wits & Wager game. The user can enter Questions from the game or customize them for the group, but is really meant for the latter. The spreadsheet includes Questions for several themes, but you can easily add your own.

Instructions are provided in the spreadsheet, but if you have questions or suggestions for improvement, please let me know.

Notes and disclaimers:
1. This spreadsheet is intended to be used in conjunction with the awesome Wits & Wager board game by North Star Games and a projector to support large group play. The pens and dry erase cards are needed for play (or can be replaced with pen and paper/large dry erase board).
2. The resolution of the projector should be set to 1,024 by 768 pixels. Higher resolutions work too, but you will need to set the Zoom (View-Zoom) to an appropriate level so that you can still see the red rectangle around this page. You will need to do the same Zoom value for each page.
3. You may not use this program in conjunction with any event that charges an admission fee without first getting permission from North Star Games. Please contact Dominic Crapuchettes at 301-493-4331 or dominic@northstargames.com. This includes raising money for a charity (although permission will surely be granted).
4. Many thanks to North Star Games for making such a great game and allowing the use of the Wits & Wagers questions and concepts for this spreadsheet!
5. This spreadsheet is version 1.2, created by Bruce Bridges and uploaded on 3/14/08.
6. This version fixed a bug where scores were not updating for certain question sets with fewer than 5 players. Also, betting rules were updated.

This file is exactly the same as the W&W Game.xls file except it has one macro installed which resets the game after a game has been finished. There are two versions since some people may be leery of using a spreadsheet incorporating macros. You will be able to use the reset feature only if you enable macros in Excel.

Instructions are provided in the spreadsheet, but if you have questions or suggestions for improvement, please let me know.
