The Hacker Jeopardy Game Board we use at NorthSec.
This is what the crowd sees:
When a clue is displayed:
This is the host interface, how you control the game:
Note that there are two drawers that can be opened by clicking on the brown arrows at the top and at the bottom of the screen. The top drawer contain the functions to change team names. The bottom drawer provides functions to display a custom message on the board or to pause a game.
You need Python 3 and Bower.
pip install -r requirements.txt bower install python3 ceopardy.py
You need at least 2 outputs: one for the game host for control and one for the public.
At NorthSec 2017, we used 3 outputs because we didn’t have the proper gear to
duplicate the public output for a stage monitor. There is a script in
helpers/ that will set 3 outputs using xrandr. It didn’t work with a GUI
tool when we tried at that time.
Game data goes in data/. There you should add round files (create a .round
file) and questions in Questions.cp. The format is pretty self explanatory.
Check data/ for an example.
python3 ceopardy.py
Then open the host view and setup the game. The players' view (also known as the viewer) can be opened at any time. Nothing will be displayed until the game is started by the host.

|
In order to avoid dataloss due to a crash, Ceopardy is backed by a database where transactions are pushed when the hosts submit the points. This has the flipside requiring games to be finalized before a new one can be started. Make sure that you always push the "Game over" button before reloading to start a new game. |
