  • When a team has collected 10 points, the other teams are entitled to an equalizing turn. If a team is on an equal footing, both teams get another turn. The team with the most points after these two turns is the winner, in case of a tie this is repeated until there is a winner.
Bonus and penalty points
  • If a team chooses the same year as the visible card and this is correct, the team will receive an extra bonus point.
  • Do you know the exact year of the song? Then don't call out before or after, but call out the exact year. For a correct answer you earn a bonus point, for a wrong answer you get 1 point deducted.
