1.The Game always to the left of the one who has finished playing.( CLOCK_WISE)

2 There is no need to worry if either you or another player reaches the same square, where another is awaiting his next turn. Theoretically, it is possible that the counter tokens of all the six players may be on the same square at the same time. Only the one whose turn has come can play at any time.

3. If you are at a point where you have to choose the direction to turn to, choose the one which will take you in shorter time to the category where you are strong and have better chance to keep scoring.

4. If one of your competitors is closer than you to winning the game, be ready with a question from a category which is most difficult for that player.

5. In the “Know IT All” version of the Game, there is no board. The die is rolled only once to determine the order in which players will be seated, to commence the game.

6. You wouldn’t get a second edge if by chance you end up at the hub a second time. You will just answer your question and proceed further from the base, as normal.

7. Remember that if you reach a category headquarters without completing all the six categories, you get a WILD CARD, and you can choose the category from which the question is to be asked to you. Always choose the one in which you are the strongest.

8. If you are lucky enough to continuously go on answering all the questions and clear the final question at the Central hub also, you have to allow other players to take their turn and try their skill and luck.

If one or more of them reach the same level as you, then you have to take turns to answer one more question as tie breaker. Otherwise, treat the game as drawn among them those who have reached the winning point.

9. Prepare yourself thoroughly for the game. Keep observing minute details in the Press reports, text Books and magazines.

Once you make a forced habit of this for a few weeks, you will be surprised to find that your eyes and ears automatically focus on such details every time you read something or are in a conversation.

10. Practice quizzing with your friends, before entering a competition. Acquire confidence first and then compete. This will reduce the frustration that you may experience on early failures.

11. Read and memorize the rules of the Game thoroughly. This will reduce errors of judgment and ensure smooth passage for you in game.

12. Wherever there are DVD versions of the questions and answers, see them as often as possible, so that your memory of the question Bank and answers can improve.
